Handcuff Glitch

Recommended Posts

Just to let you know you should probably fix this little bug. Me and my brother where playing together on dayz when i got disconnected, my character stayed there however and my brother thought it would be funny to handcuff me so id be handcuffed when i come on however what actually happened is that he handcuffed me and i DIED he then could not loot my body and i had to start again.(i was pimped out as %$£!). :huh:

Well if you log out while handcuffed you die, its to prevent people who are hostages from just logging out of the server to escape the situation. Removing that would make handcuffs a useless item. As for the not being able to loot the body, that sometimes happens if a body slides down a hill from its original falling location, did that happen in this instance?

As someone who handcuffs a LOT of people, I am forced to agree with the log out=death penalty as a temporary solution . 
What I would much rather see , is 

-Once restrained player is unable to log out . 

-Dies if Alt-F4 while cuffed / tied 

-Hand cuffs are unbreakable. Or atleast a LOT harder to break out of .

-If have keys,handsaw,or lock pick  in inventory , able to use them while cuffed at desired time to break out.

-Same with ropes , need some type of knife already in inventory to cut yourself out. With out knife , takes much longer to wiggle out

 

Unable to sprint when restrained, But are able to jog ( required to still avoid zombies later )

*easy to prevent someone from escaping  by just adding burlap to blind them 

 -Should also have the option once hands are bound , to also bind legs to prevent any movement

I could be wrong but I want to say there was a duping glitch with restraining someone while logging/logged out and that's the consequence of the fix for it.

 

Or like Dick said if the body slides up against things.
