General Zod 1118 Posted January 11, 2022 Can we get a folding shovel that we could carry with us to make accessing our hidden storage ? Regular shovels aren't that common considering that with how rural chernarus is there would be shovels everywhere and the full size one is too cumbersome to carry around. I'm talking about something like this : Now obviously it would need to be actually able to fold, and if that's too much hard work can we at least get the option to make the existing shovel shorter with a saw ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tristan Cooper 12 Posted January 13, 2022 I like this. Maybe instead of adding a folding mechanic it could just automatically fold in the inventory. How much does the current shovel take up? Like sixteen or something. Maybe it just fills four or six slots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Zod 1118 Posted January 13, 2022 16 slots and it weights 6 kg with is A LOT for a wooden shovel, metal shovels weight half of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted January 13, 2022 Yeah I often wonder about weight mechanics, not just on dayz but in lots of games. I don't know why things aren't given their actual weight. I wish dayz had properly implemented stamina and weight combined with the soft skills. Starting as a fresh spawn, slightly overweight with low stamina and over time getting fitter with improved stamina and ability to carry more weight. It conversely if malnourished then having lower stamina. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it would be hilarious to spawn fresh and you get the unhealthy obese character then you have to go through the trials of becoming reasonably fit lol haha like gta San Andrea's did haha that was a laugh at the time. on another note I think I heard from one of MARK'S day z YouTube vids that the devs are going to be focusing on player stats like food, water, health, and stamina this year also expanding or adding to livonia but that's about all the info I could get on that. don't expect skill trees and stuff but it'll be interesting to see what they do in regards to stats but then again it might just be another year of semi successful food and water balancing 🤷♂️🏴 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Zod 1118 Posted January 13, 2022 You go through all the effort of becoming a fit and healthy survivor only to be killed by someone camping in a bush wearing full ghillie just to grief you, or better yet by a hacker. While it would add a feeling of progress to the game and satisfaction from surviving it would also add to the fuck it I'm going to play something else when you die.
