Irish. 4886 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) What do you think you would do with chain or padlocks? Both? I'd chain up infected in towns to trees, posts. Leave them as watchdogs and whatnot at my camp, etc.. So I wonder what all of you would do if we had chains and padlocks to use in dayz? What ideas would you have towards their implementation? Here are some of mine: Chains: Towing Chaining up infected Improvised Roadblock Chain up player (no wiggling out) Lock up your bike etc. Padlocks: Lock gear into locker Craft small box, add padlock w/key = locked stash box Lock up gates Improvised way of barricading doors Lock up refrigerators/global stash spots Craft with rag to create improvised sap (melee weapon) etc..

Conrad_The_Comrade 577 Posted April 20, 2016 Wait until barricading is a thing and find a walled in area without many gaps (Block those gaps off) and use it to lock the gate. Then enjoy my little spot until I lose it due to bugs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Killawife 599 Posted April 20, 2016 Find someone loggin in, not able to defend himself, knock him out and break his legs with the chain and then say rude things in french. And then when he comes to, knock him out again with my chain again saying rude things in french and adding the word "noob" before leaving. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buakaw 274 Posted April 21, 2016 Its nice that you watch The Walking Dead, but some of those ideas are fucking riddiculous for DayZ. Padlocks would seem reasonable tho, but they have yet to announce their stance on stashes/loot/ loot "security" so to speak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buakaw 274 Posted April 21, 2016 Its nice that you replied, but some of your jokes are... Come to think of it, locking bikes would be awesome.. but what happens if you die and your body despawns and the unique key to your unique padlock is lost? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RIP, you could probably break a padlock by shooting it with a rifle anything smaller than that doesn't really work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Come to think of it, locking bikes would be awesome.. but what happens if you die and your body despawns and the unique key to your unique padlock is lost? you chain your bike up and go off and die and what happens ? - somebody steals your wheels, obviously. * * * explanation: Spoiler Where I lived in London (back when) there was an classy bike frame chained to a streetlight outside my door for at least a year; It was there when I moved in. OK? It had - no wheels, no saddle, no handlebars, no pedals, no chain, no gears, no brakes, no cables = ya know.. nothing except the frame and a really BIG heavyweight bike chain with marks where people had tried to saw through and broke their saws I guess. Eventually someone got up on a 3d floor roof on the next house and got a rope down to the bike and pulled it up over the top of the streetlight. Then there was no bike frame anymore.- That was a pity because it was a landmark to my area; I used it to explain where I lived by telling girls who called from the pub to find the bike frame and turn right, and I'd be waiting for them. In other rougher areas there was a thing like that locked on every second lamppost, so that was no big deal - but we were a moderate kind of corner.. we were genteel ! - and a max of about 15 people shared a house, ya know.? and no loud music after 3 am unless it was full-on live rock or punk. So that's what happens when you chain your bike up and leave it. I hope you checked you were over 18 before you read that. xxP Edited April 21, 2016 by pilgrim* 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Girth Brooks 570 Posted April 21, 2016 Run a chain (or wire) across busy road. Wait for unsuspecting guy on dirtbike hauling ass. Watch as his head is cut off. Profit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
