Defibrilators

I think this would be a very great addition, especially for those who team up. Obviously we wouldn't want a BF3 style healing system... reviving someone continuously right after they die over and over. But have a short period of time after someone has died to revive them. Maybe not a 100% chance of it working... Say it would roll a dice with a given low chance that it would work. And you have to revive them within the time limit.

Headshots could be a way of making sure the person is dead... Might make for some good double taps. ;]

Anyone with me here or am I just flat out retarded for thinking such?

I think its a good idea if you firstly have to bandage the players wounds to stop bleeding and give them everythin they need then use them that way it stops reviving in fire fights cos your not gonna stop for around 20-30secs to bandage someone, morphine then blood transfusion them if ur being shot only after the initial danager is gone

I think my ideas are good additions and if it was that way i would agrree

Being able to revive would be brilliant imo.

So with a head shot they die right? Body shots would sometimes just outright kill them and some times make them unconscious and able to be saved? And you would use the defrib to bring them back.

Ok sounds to me like this is in place already, but with different names. Head shots kills, sometimes with body shots your just die and some times you are unconscious and still able to be saved. Instead of a defrib you use and epi pen though.

This is the same as BF2 vs BFs Project Reality. One uses the defrib and one uses the epi pen but both are the exact same system.

I vote no. The only reason we can revive people with a defib is because they die from heart failure. All it takes is a quick jolt to get the heart going again and they're otherwise completely fine. Dying in Day Z is generally from blood loss, so great, you got his heart beating again, but what's it going to pump?

This.

Defibrillators only work if the heart is in fibrillation, you cannot use a defib to magically start the heart again, you can however reset the heart with em.

People who die from traumatic injuries be it GSW, blast, hypovolemia go into traumatic heartfailure, and as such can't be undeathyfied by defibrillators.

I'm sad to tell you that video games and TV has lied to you, but thats the truth.

No, im against this, nobody will be able to revive you in RL when you have taken three shots in the torso (maybe ounctured both lungs, good luck surviving that)

defibs only work when every other is is takien care of, you cant just jolt someone with a few thousands of volt and they magically come back to live with no gunshot wounds...
