creepy6ninja 1 Posted July 20, 2012 I think that when dayz becomes a standalone game there should be a ranking system.Not like cod or any other FPS since when you die your dead forever.Like every time you kill someone,zombie,or an animal you get an amount of exp that when you get a certain amount you rank to the next level that grants you certain things mabey just cosmetics,accesories things that wont effect gameplay just apperance.Or mabey even types of abilities like longer sprinting better chance to find weapons better chance for criticals etc.And when you die you start over with the exp.Tell me what you think or is it just me who thinks this would be a cool thing to add to dayz for more uniqueness?p.s.Plzz no hate :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeOverlord 150 Posted July 20, 2012 I'm going to have to disagree brah...If anything more appearance options need to be added...But no ranking...Don't really like having the average life expectancy...This game isn't one where you track stats... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brusann 67 Posted July 20, 2012 I think appearance only items would be cool, but would have to be completely optional. Because some people dont want their player kills broadcast to the world, or how long theyve been alive; they just want to blend in. And rightly so, your appearance wouldnt change irl if you killed some zombies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dancing.Russian.Man 1631 Posted July 20, 2012 Hmm where do you come up with this math sir?The same place you're getting this "rank system."Cosmetics are fun, and I approve. But oh god, keep EXP out of the game.Feed it to zombies -- if they even accept it as food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But oh god, keep EXP out of the game.Feed it to zombies -- if they even accept it as food.Why do you say that why no exp it provides a uniuqe way to get cosmetics.Explain..

Dancing.Russian.Man 1631 Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Why do you say that why no exp it provides a uniuqe way to get cosmetics.Explain..My point is this;When you kill an X amount of zombies, you don't suddenly get a hat spawning on your head.When you kill an X amount of bandits, you don't suddenly say "Oh man, killing all these bandits from under this tree has made given me the ability to run faster than ever before!"BUT! If you were to suggest, that you could get clothing off of zombies (like their bloody jacket, or new set of pants that blend in the environment better), I would love the idea. Same with taking Camo clothing and Ghillie suits off of killed players. (You can't, at the moment.)Edit; It isn't a "unique way" of getting cosmetic stuff. Take a look at Team Fortress 2. You kill a bunch of guys, you complete certain achievements, and BAM! New cosmetic hats. Looting stuff off of players isn't a unique way, either, but it sure would fit the atmosphere better, and feel more realistic.

Quaby 93 Posted July 20, 2012 The levelling in this game is through gear, not exp. Nothing persists through death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creepy6ninja 1 Posted July 20, 2012 The levelling in this game is through gear, not exp. Nothing persists through death.That's not leveling..What im trying to get at is a way to get accesories,cosmetics,etc.Mabey even minor perks such as better stamina, better chances of finding loot, you loose blood slower when bleeding small things like that.

FlatulentRemedies 13 Posted July 20, 2012 no, this would get rid of the realism of the game. like the guy above said I don't think sniping a survivor would make you run faster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ydeco 0 Posted July 20, 2012 Please keep all sort of experience and perks/skills out of the game, I just dont think this is the game for that, maybe people would even start killing players or zombies just for the sake of getting some nice clothes. I think everybody would like to have some new skins, but they should be available as a character customization for when you respawn, maybe even some cooler skins as loot(suits or soldier outfit or something?). But all ''gamy'' solutions, such exp systems, should be avoided I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
