therandomredstone 432 Posted January 11, 2015 Duh this has already been suggested. But its a good suggestion. After the new AI, renderer, engine and all that shizz I believe smoking could be possible. I looked under one of those blue things and found a pack of cigarettes with a few scattered on the ground. Imagine how convenient it would be to pick up one of those cigarettes, light it with a match, and smoke up. Maybe to get over the shakes from killing a cannibal, or seeing somebody get mugged and decapitated, whatever your reason would be. Smoking shall be resorted! Smoking I think would be added in the game in later stages. Maybe around the second half of the 2015 roadmap, even though it isn't listed anywhere (I don't think at least) Thoughts? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

odin_lowe 3686 Posted January 11, 2015 Nicotine is a stimulant.Yet, everyone who smokes crave their cigarettes to "calm down".... The irony, right?? I've read a while ago that cigarettes, alcohol and a few other "substances" are confirmed to be implemented eventually. My guess is that when the medical system gets an update we might see those items start to appear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sencha 100 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) cigarettes are not drugs. As creature stated, they are a stimulant. Think before you post, and use proper grammar. Tobacco is a drug. Just like alcohol is a drug. Just because they're legal doesn't change that they're drugs. Also, pretty sure they've already confirmed that smoking will be added to the game at some point.

But the entire cigarette itself is not considered a drug. Just what's in it. Its a hard concept to grasp, but its true. But smoking will be a fun feature once its added in, regardless! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaingunfighter 917 Posted January 15, 2015 Correction, cigarettes contain nicotine which is a drug. But the entire cigarette itself is not considered a drug. Just what's in it. Its a hard concept to grasp, but its true. But smoking will be a fun feature once its added in, regardless!Drugs are fairly loosely defined - any chemical substance that has an effect on a living organism's body and/or its functions. So no, the paper that the nicotine is surrounded by is not inherently a drug (though were you to swallow the whole thing it'd definitely have effects on you) but as a proper English sentence it's not incorrect to refer to it like that, just as how we call a can of beer alcohol despite the fact that the can itself is nothing more than a vector to contain the substances.However, at the same rate, that also means that a basic substance like glucose classifies the same as, per say, methamphetamine, despite the two being completely different chemically. So it's just needless categorization that neither of you really needed to argue about. But as has been said before, I'm quite sure that tobacco as well as other recreational drugs were confirmed or at least being discussed internally to a degree - as even at the least having them in game for variety purposes with only adverse side effects would still be quite realistic, as it's very hard to find places where you can't find some kind of tobacco product. Regardless, it's definitely been suggested a billion times already. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doctorbadsign 645 Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Having recovered from an addiction to nicotine, and seen the negative consequences of it. I really don't think that it should be actively or passively promoted anywhere whatsoever. They could add it and have a negative health effect on the player, but then it does seem rather pointless having it. It should make your sprinting distance shorter, being out of breath for longer, shakes if you haven't had a smoke for a while etc. Adding it because it is "cool" is facile and promotes a dangerous outlook.
