cccbss 0 Posted July 20, 2012 It is a way to keep track of them.If you do not like the dog tag idea, then so be it.Why must dogtag? You can using passport or driving licence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hunterkilla 67 Posted July 20, 2012 I like the idea of a journal or even the dogtags, maybe a way you have to view it so its not always onscreen. I know i saw a clip with rocket saying he wanted to remove the hud so this would do it. I also love the idea of a journal you could update as you play and imagine finding someones journal after you kill them and realise they were a friendly who helped others, how much of a douche would you feel ( well most bandits/players wouldnt care ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkRaven123 602 Posted July 20, 2012 +1 good idea.Even if you represented it as an ID, it would still give the basic stats of the person you killed.ID is realistic, even the most hardcore have to admit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ax3 6 Posted July 20, 2012 Loving this idea, makes the thrill of coming out of your hide to get the details/ID/dog tags of the person you just shot/chopped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thefonztm@gmail.com 86 Posted July 20, 2012 No to trophies. We have enough pvp without incentives like this. Don't get me wrong pvp is good. But no need to encourage it further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Private Poptarts 23 Posted July 20, 2012 I like the idea but add this;Remove bandits killed/murders and replace with "Passports found" or similar. One ID, +1 to the counter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pixeleater 1 Posted July 20, 2012 This is a amazing idea but maybe if it was in like a journal, what maybe you could write notes in or stories for other players to read! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadowesh 0 Posted July 20, 2012 I kind of have a lot of fun in trying to guess what kind of person they were before I put a bullet at the back of their heads. Half the fun is the mystery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDude8D 13 Posted July 20, 2012 Great idea. I hope it gets put in the game. Keep this thread alive guys :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sturmfalkerda 5 Posted July 20, 2012 Love the idea!! What about a list of people he helped like morphene and stuff..??And you could always prevent bandits from picking up these if you want, but I think it would be pretty cool.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redshift 58 Posted July 20, 2012 Love the idea. As for "Why dogtags"? Why not? It isn't a stretch to say that our characters are military people; they know how to effectively use military weapons (knowing how to use a weapon effectively is far different than just pointing a gun at someone and pulling a trigger) equipment (nvgs, rangefinders, entrenching tools ect) and vehicles, know advanced combat first aid, how to properly combat crawl (it's harder than it looks), just to name a few of the things our characters innately know how to do that a normal civilian would not.Besides, its just a mechanic that works and fits the setting.As for this encouraging more pvp.... people will be bandits and engage in pvp regardless. This will do nothing to make it more rampant, nor will it discourage pvp. So in that sense it is a perfect mechanic in that it is neutral.NameNumber of hours alive in game (or days alive even though that is much less reliable)Date killedZombie killsMurdersBandit Kills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alexander_gertz@hotmail.com 19 Posted July 20, 2012 I like the idea, but you're a survivor, not a soldier.Maybe add a wallet option where you can see their ID that tells those thingsWell I am a civilian and I have dog tags,What if you did not have a wallet *hint Apocalypse*Not dissing you or anything but, Dog tags can be melted and made on your own.

Powell (DayZ) 734 Posted July 20, 2012 Actually, that is a REALLY sweet idea :DWhen you loot the body, you might find a guy with like 13 murders.or you might find a guy with 0.A nice reflection to see whether your choice to KoS was worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
