Lighting Buildings/Camps/Players on fire with matches.

[esham (DayZ) 25]

Can we expand the uses of the matches with the ability to light buildings, tents (camps), and possibly players on fire? >:D

YES

I logged a bug the other day about a visual glitch. The view distance fog was being rendered as animated flames. I shit you not. It made the forest look like it was on fire, but as I got closer, the flames moved. I thought that maybe forest fires were a part of the game and someone had left a campfire burning.

There is no way we should give the cavemen that play this game (myself excluded) access to fire. That would be PANDEMONIUM.

would take only a matter of minutes to Burn down the entire map! sweet jesus no!

You will need a Jerry Can with Gas in order to use it. Also in reality you are able to do these things ;) ;)

no. There would be nothing left in about 5 days of the server being up.

Including myself. If I can't rid the world of the infection, I'll burn it to the ground around me.

(But seriously, it's probably a horrible idea even though I'd personally love it. I'm a bit of a firebug.)

i actually dont mind this.

i like this idea. maybe tone it down a bit though. or make the requirements excessively high =

in order to burn down building you need 25 jerry cans.

also, the forest fire idea shouldn't be so large scale. maybe if you leave you camp fire on, it will burn down surrounding area and your tent (if applicable)
