Burn it All

Recommended Posts

There are matches in this game, and there is gas canisters in this game. These are the things you will need:

 

-Matches

-Lighter (when they are implemented)

-Gas Canister

-An alternative to the Matches and Lighter, is a gun

 

All you have to do is simply pour the gas down onto the road or concrete, you can do it whilst walking (like in GTA V) and when you are done, light the gas or shoot it, and the ground will catch on fire! and anyone who enters it starts screaming, losing health at a consistent rate until they jump in water or the flame wears off.

 

-This will be good for roadblocks

-signals (to start a fight, move in, etc.)

-Traps: "ooh a fire, let me get a closer loo--" You Are Dead..

-Role Play: Imagine two insane players with masks on, chainsaws, and were lighting the ground on fire before chasing you.. Pretty scary.

 

If this is added, I know it wont be any time soon. It's too complex for the stages that DayZ is currently in.

Afaik, the Gas Canisters are loaded with Butane. You can't pour it on the ground, it would vaporize instantly at atmospheric pressure.

What I think you mean, is the Jerry Can. There's also a Road Flare as an ignition source.

Gasoline really doesn't burn that fiercely when poured on the ground. Only the fumes are flammable, so you're wasting most of your fuel.

I'd be fine with it but you have to light it, no shooting it. that doesn't actually work in real life unless a flame is already present nearby.
