Arierref 1 Posted May 1, 2021 One thing I had long thought about was the private ownership of the car. An ignition lock and a key that you could put a password like the padlocks you already have in the game. so whoever set it up would own the car! other players would have to use tools to break into the car and make the direct call like a thief does !!! It would be more stimulating for those who can painfully assemble a car! If you can't mount an ignition, the car would start calling directly as it currently does in the game! With this 1.12 update, progress has already been made in this direction! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EzyStriderPS4 191 Posted May 1, 2021 Interesting! My 2 cents: perhaps cars can spawn with an unique key already in the ignition that is also able to lock the doors. Bandits and thieves would have to use tools to physically remove the door and then hot-wire it with a screwdriver or lock pick. Furthermore, if using heavy melee weapons the door could be hit until ruined, then allowing its removal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drgullen 593 Posted May 1, 2021 Or we just leave it as it is. Take your spark plug and/or car battery out, hide them somewhere or take them with you. If you come back and car gone, oh well, you have something new to do now. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

helpthedeadwalk 179 Posted May 28, 2021 never going to happen. dayz isn't about permanent ownership like that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shift 25 Posted June 1, 2021 Maybe the key shouldnt be unique to a certain car but just to a certain model? Like a car would spawn with a key that you can take out and that key would work for any car of that make and model? Kind of like a spark plug but specific to a certain make and model and one you dont have to open the hood and fumble with inventory to take out/put in?

McWendy 675 Posted June 1, 2021 Cars are fine as is (ownership wise) What the cars need is better handling cliënt or server side. Better character collision. Sturdier wheels and radiators. More types (buses, trucks, pickups) If your car got stolen tough luck, you should have taken out the essentials. Or hid it better. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
