2023 Character Cosmetics [Roadmap]

[WOLVERlNES 136]

DayZ 2023 Roadmap communicates there’s plans to expand upon clothing and gear customization by adding varieties of “backpacks and survival themes and outfits that exemplify the DayZ brand.”

I’m all for these updates to expand survivor’s cosmetics in the game.

But would like to suggest that as part of these updates include fixing clothing items that have clipping issues or incompatibility problems.

Examples of this include:

• Hair of character models clipping through various hats that’s like berets
• Helmet straps that awkwardly clip over ski masks
• Head-torches that clip through baseball caps
• Backpack straps that clip over and through various vests
• Masks that extend down the neck and clip through the shoulders and collars of jackets/shirts
• GPS receivers that clip through pouches on tactical vests
• The bulky appearance of armbands over sleeves looks terrible compared to how they look with no sleeves
• How longarm weapons clip through tactical gear like plate carriers and attachments when equipped
• Knife Sheaths and Knives clip through shirts and jackets awkwardly 
• Knifes attached to boots clip through pants

I’m sure there’s other examples I’ve not mentioned here, but you get the idea. To identify and correct clothing bugs over the course of the year whilst introducing new goodies.

It sucks to have a look you want to put together be ruined because your survivor looks stupid when their blonde locks poke through that blue beret you snagged from an infected at a heli-crash.

 

-Cheers
