Any thought of allowing custom face uploads?

Recommended Posts

I was playing with some friends and we started discussing how cool it would be if we could use our own likeness in game. It use to be possible in old NHL hockey games by EA. 

Perhaps it would be too much stress on the servers if everyone was capable of doing it. What about making the option purchasable as a digital collectible on a marketplace like opensea or creating your own digital collectible marketplace. Web 3 gaming is all about owning in game assets and I think Dayz would be perfect.

Custom faces would have to moderated somehow or maybe uploads could be verified before going live. Imagine the videos people would make if they were allowed to change the characters likeness. Exposure on Dayz would blow up. Has there ever been talk about character customization? Wonder if it could be a revenue source for Bohemia. Making it a win win for users and the company.

Wouldn’t other players have to download the image to see it?

Woild probably end up as a game file, but that would lead to daily updates of the game and probably blow up it's size.

I agree. The idea is unreasonable.

The dimensions of the various faces would be only and exclusively in the HD, not expense on the CPU. The updates could take place on a weekly basis in a "quiet" time, only a library with the various new images would have to be loaded, nothing serious. But it would be nice to see.
The only flaw I can imagine is that if this game already works badly, everything that is added can only make the situation worse ... but this for ANY addition to the game, not just this one ... unfortunately.
