About ads: it was called Chernomorky (on the pack on russian: Chernomorkanal (kidding on soviet cigarettes (it's still exists) "Belomorkanal", that add still in the game and you can find it on the map (billboard), but image is hardly damaged so it's hard to see, but if you know how it looks - it's not a problem to see. About the billboard here for you original texture from Arma 2 (Chernomorkanal (Cernomorky)): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD7_NtW80LM_3v5Zy9P2Si8-7U34bIVh/view?usp=drivesdk Idk that might be useless but why not 😄 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see a point in adding a cigarettes. Adds nothing to gameplay, and wastes the time of the only 2 devs working on the important staff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WOLVERlNES 135 Posted November 10, 2023 They could make cigarettes 🚬 also provide a buff like in RedDead Redemption 2 does for instance. In RDO if a tobacco product is consumed, like smoking cigarettes, one takes health damage but gains Dead Eye. In DayZ, perhaps smoking could do something like add warmth bonus in addition to doing health damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But on balance of BI 4 projects for sure (A3, DZ, Take on Mars, AReif), A3 and ToM is on support state of nature, most active is AReif, and somewhere at the bottom of list a bit upper then A3 is DayZ - if translate on normal lang. And yeah it's add an awesome stuff to the game (sing it loud: Smoke On The Water, Fire intge skies...). And if you can kill yourself in reality with sigarets why you can't kill in the game?

Because it takes a very long time for smokers to die barring a somewhat rare case of very aggressive cancer which still takes years. No way your character could live in game for this long, if other players or bugs won't get you a wipe will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure, but in real life cigs don't give you any actual benefits apart from maybe calming your nerves once you're already hooked on them. Since there are no nerves in game mechanics I wonder what's the point of adding them ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can think of many fun things to do with them 🙂 There is a reason modders added cigarettes and joints years ago. It's just fun and silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parafz 0 Posted Monday at 09:48 AM They could lower health as a trade-off but double as kindling or a fire starter for survival mechanics, great idea! Or could a vape Crave Max 2500 implement hah) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just because you don't see any value in it doesn't mean it won't be outside your reality. Light a cigarette and take your eyes off the sniper scope for a moment. For everyone's sake. I'd appreciate to see cigarettes in DayZ, but admittedly the health degradation when smoking is too gamy-like for my taste, I'd just leave the option of smoking a cigarette.
