Cannibalism, Drug addiction, and BBQing

[Jikfive 34]

- A cannibalism feature added to the game. (Harvest meat off of dead players.) You gain 1400 blood for every piece of meat.

- If a player decides becomes a cannibal their blood max should be increased to 14000.

- Pain pill/morphine/epi addiction. Whenever you take morphine/pain pills there could be a very slight chance to become addicted. .05% chance (just throwing a figure out there).

- When addiction occurs then a meter should be created similar to the food and water meter (however make the meter drain slower than food and water). If you do not get your fix you can take, then you will suffer from pain (not blood loss) until you take more.

- For every murder you have, the chance of becoming addicted to morphine/pain pills goes up by .05% whenever you consume them.

- Drinking a Mountain dew will eliminate 2% chance of addiction. (silly I know, but they are so dang rare you gotta feel good when you find one!)

- Epi pen can also be used to keep up maximum sprint for a short time, even if you are winded.

- A rare drop Coleman BBQ for your campsite that you can cook your food on, increasing blood gain by +200 on each item cooked in it, You can even cook beans :D

- A rare drop "supply bag" for your campsite. It will generate 2 random items every 24 hours.

- Rare wild animals in woods that are hostile to players.

- pooping. Nuff said.

Sounds very Fallout in here :P

I heard there's a tiger in the wilderness, one spawn per server, and it can one shot you.

- A cannibalism feature added to the game. (Harvest meat off of dead players.) You gain 1400 blood for every piece of meat. - People would just kill each other even more, no one would use animals. What thought process are you using here???

- If a player decides becomes a cannibal their blood max should be increased to 14000. - This doesn't make sense, everyone would be cannibals. If anything it should make you sick, give you the shakes and lower your health. Hurrdurr LOGIC AND SCIENCE.

- Pain pill/morphine/epi addiction. Whenever you take morphine/pain pills there could be a very slight chance to become addicted. .05% chance (just throwing a figure out there). - Sure, sounds good.

- When addiction occurs then a meter should be created similar to the food and water meter (however make the meter drain slower than food and water). If you do not get your fix you can take, then you will suffer from pain (not blood loss) until you take more. - Sure you should begin to shake and shiver and eventually have bad withdrawal and maybe become crippled with pain.

- For every murder you have, the chance of becoming addicted to morphine/pain pills goes up by .05% whenever you consume them. - How does murder connect to drug addiction? Why are we trying to penalize murder again, Rocket has said it's not going to change.

- Drinking a Mountain dew will eliminate 2% chance of addiction. (silly I know, but they are so dang rare you gotta feel good when you find one!) - Hurrdurr, no. This doesn't even make sense.

- Epi pen can also be used to keep up maximum sprint for a short time, even if you are winded. - Sounds cool

- A rare drop Coleman BBQ for your campsite that you can cook your food on, increasing blood gain by +200 on each item cooked in it, You can even cook beans :D - This is just dumb.

- A rare drop "supply bag" for your campsite. It will generate 2 random items every 24 hours. - No, hurrdurr magic item fairy came by and gave us these awesome weapons guyz.

- Rare wild animals in woods that are hostile to players. - Why rare? There should just be wild animals.

- pooping. Nuff said. - Sure

I had thought about cannibalism but a drawback to dissuade people from trying it is a high chance of getting an/the infection...like if your mate dies beside you, you can eat him if you're starving (flashing red) but if you stumble across a body then eating him can be high risk.

Man you people with these weird suggestion posts.So what you want is to eventually have lady boy cannibals running around jerking off in office spaces and having gay sex in the woods.Whats next I ask??

[Ramtex 1]

I stopped reading at Coleman.

C'mon, how much did they pay you??

Again, rocket has stated that he does NOT want to punish people for being bandits. This idea would do exactly that.

Rocket has said (check the "Rocket said" post in GD) that while he considered game mechanics like addiction and cannibalism, he left them out because they would cause the game to have issues with ratings boards in strict countries like Australia. And we all love our Aussie bros, so we'll leave out the squick so they can keep playing.

@Thorgold, so that is why we will likely only see 'waterfilled' whiskeybottles then?

I am Australian. Fuck us. Dont compromise awesome gameplay just because we have a few retards who think they know whats good for adults here. An 18+ rating is on its way anyway, so it shouldnt be a problem. Its not as if people wouldnt just buy it online from international sources like L4D2 anyway.

Cannibalism is a must imo.

The ultimate end game for a bandit is a cannibal bandit who murders for loot and food.
