New ways to start a fire

Recommended Posts

I took a look at the new additions of the new campfire and furnace, and I was thinking that it will be really cool and really realistic to add more ways to start a fire.

1)Take powder from bullets.

We should be able to take powder and use it as fuel, maybe with 2 rocks we could smash them to create sparks and ignite a fire.

2) Friction.

We should be able to use to sticks to create friction and with a rag in the campfire we could create little fire to ignite it.

3) Addition of lighters.

I supposed this has been suggested before, but will be really cool if we have more of this, with different designs and stuff, maybe one in form of a bullet, like in Metro: Last Light XD

4) 2 stones and a bandage/rag/paper

We should be able to use this to create a spark that will fall in the rag/paper/bandage and create a fire

5) Bow drill

With a stick and a rope we should be able to craft a bow, and with an additional stick and a log maybe we could start a fire like in Man V Wild.

6) Lens and glasses

Would be awesome if we could use those glasses we find so often and use them to focus the sunlight. We would need a rag/bandage/paper to ignite first of course.

7) Soda cans

In many survival shows I´ve seen how they use the bottom part of the can to focus the sunlight, would be so cool to have this.

8) Batteries

I guess we would need to have steel wool first, but if you decide to add it, we could start a fire with a battery too.

9) Water

The lensing method is really cool, because you can use a lot of things, even water. But we would need  a plastic bag to carry the water, then focus the sunlight to create a spark.

9)Flashlight Lens

Again, another lensing method, we could use the flashlight to focus the sunlight

I could see lighters being added in the game but, why not just use matches?
