tarquinbb 28 Posted July 23, 2012 i like the idea of KO's...something which can reliably KO for a decent period of time would be very interesting.i've died about 10+ times in the space of 2 weeks, and each death has been almost INSTANT. pewpewpew death. i've literally never been injured by another player, if it's not a one-shot then it's a quick burst death or getting knocked unconscious and then shot to the head. if there was a reliable incapacitation device then maybe i wouldn't die so often.

federik21 42 Posted July 23, 2012 killing is easier and safer, and since there isn't a morality-humanity system, it's useless to have a tazer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FuzzyPooka 20 Posted July 24, 2012 Some of us actually play as we would survive in real life. I for one am proud to say I would not kill an innocent human being, merely to try out my new DMR. Though I might want their food. >:3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please enlighten me as to how the addition of a taser would turn DayZ into APB: Reloaded. Go ahead, humor me. Is there a food/water system in APB? How about sickness and broken bones? The ability to put up tents and store items? What about the most basic element of DayZ: a world full of zombies?No?Then fuck off with your "THIS SUGGESTION HAS SOMETHING THAT I'VE SEEN IN ANOTHER GAME AND THAT MAKES IT BAD".

OrLoK 16186 Posted July 24, 2012 Hello,IMHO less than lethal weapons would be interesting, but could be abused by trolls.I've been in a death/resurrection loop in an old old MMO RPG and that was no fun, i can see similar things happening unless properly thought through.Less than lethal weapons do sound interesting though.rgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgoolong 0 Posted July 24, 2012 tasers exist. i am a survivor with no gun i would use everything i can findthis idea is ok, especially the batteries Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JD_274 18 Posted July 24, 2012 A taser has no practical use in this game. You're better off using the disk space required to program a barely lethal weapon for a better useful item or feature. If anything this only promotes players going after other players, when this game should be more teamwork oriented than it's current deathmatch-like state of affairs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kieran.thorpe88@gmail.com 12 Posted July 24, 2012 To all you idiots moaning about no use for something of this nature, of course there is, its a way of neutralising a threat without killing them, the KO does not need to be long, but for those players who don't want to kill it gives them an option to get out of a sticky situation without killing.Does not need to be long range that would be stupid, but these kind of things do exist so dont see why an item of this nature should not be included.

wrenuld 1 Posted July 24, 2012 This is a great idea, suggestions like this have been posted before but still.Alt+F4ing is bad anyway, it doesn't mean this suggestion is bad.Trolls can also shoot you or break your legs, being tasered could also be a lot more exciting than flat out getting shot. 'Oh shit, why am I not dead? What are they doing? What's going to happen?' Granted they can just shoot you, but they could do that anyway.Saying that it's useless because killing is easier and safer also doesn't hold weight. You personally wouldn't use a taser, cool. I'd drop a side arm for a taser any day personally, I'd enjoy using it and I'm sure other people would.Confrontations are exciting in DayZ and a taser would mix it up and make some of them more interesting, make sure you have to be in fairly close to use it and you're good.
