Cutting up bodies (i.e cut head, arms, legs)

[Jean Valjean 1]

When you kill a player, instead of just skin and quartering a body, could you add a option to just cut off the head/arm/leg?  Head can be placed on a stick or perhaps arm/leg could be cooked and used as weapon or eaten like a big chicken wing.

I didnt realise prison inmates were allowed access to public forums.

I'm not against this. I suppose my only concern is its feasibility. Like if society collapsed a week ago, my first instinct wouldn't be "I want to mount a skull on a pike and wear somebody's face skin on my face."

I dont want to think why you would want this, but I guess it could add to realism and stuff...

At what point, during the desperate struggle for survival, do you decide that crafting a weapon from a cadaver's arm is the best course of action?

Truth to be told, the thought of humans putting heads on poles is not far fetched in human history, no need to bash the OP for that. It sure is no good taste, but it has been done a lot in human history

I think dismemberment would be cool to see and encounter.

A FN FAL bullet could rip off an hand arm or a head, a visibly fatal wound. Shooting a head arm or leg off does give the shooter a very strong sense of power and influence. On the other hand it may spur on risk taking, bandit play and sadism.

Also severed heads could be put up as a warning, a trap, a mark, a trophy etc. There could be a posse or gang going for an head-hunt. "bring me the head* of Brian!".

Rolling heads would also indicate a loss of morale that usually comes when there is nothing to loose.

Finding your old bearded friends head on a stick, or in trunk would have a cool emotional and motivating effect.

 

Head design: - I hope Dayz SA will offer user head design like other RPG's have done, so people can have unique heads that can be recognised. Maybe an in game polaroid camera, or sketch paper and pen can create a decal from a in game photo, so people can show other in game the person they are looking for, or hang up a wanted / lost poster on a sign in town to let people know.
