Mildley 20 Posted July 25, 2012 Me and my buddy were talking yesterday and it would be really cool if vehicles came with a key and has to have the key to start it. But on the other hand add a hot wire kit on a rare-ish spawn so if people want to steal your vehicle from your camp they cant just walk up and take it after you spent 2 hours fixing it up.

exciniscineris 32 Posted July 25, 2012 I don't agree with this at all, if you do that than If I didn't have a hot wire kit on hand i would just blow up the car. This would just screw up the whole vehicle system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chickenfeed 17 Posted July 25, 2012 It's also been suggested a stupid amount of times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hobbicon 19 Posted July 25, 2012 I don´t think it´s a stupid idea at all. Have you any idea how long it takes to fully repair and refuel a vehicle?If you manage to find a vehicle in the middle of nowhere, you also find its owner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3rdparty 229 Posted July 25, 2012 yea i dont quite mind the idea of it, i remember ranting about an electronic toolkit (e-kit) on another thread and all its possible uses. One of which was hot wiring cars, (if car keys were introduced) break a window, use e kit, jobs a goodun.The only problem i saw with it was the idea that you dont really need an e kit to hot wire a car. :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mildley 20 Posted July 25, 2012 Alright, how about the ability to REMOVE any components you fixed on the car? so if someone does stumble upon it they still have to have a wheel or engine parts? so its not just OH a car jump in and go! If I can put the damn wheels on I should be able to take them off when i'm done with it for the night! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted July 25, 2012 There were roleplay mods/missions that used keys to lock or drive their cars. But if you only had one key and the holder was killed and you couldn't get it back....sh*t? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sticky (DayZ) 38 Posted July 25, 2012 I don't agree with this at all, if you do that than If I didn't have a hot wire kit on hand i would just blow up the car. This would just screw up the whole vehicle system.I'd rather you blow my vehicle up and no one use it rather than you just happily hop in it with your magical key and take it along with everything I've accumlated inside. Have fun walking back to its spawn point to find it on the next server reset to repair and refuel it as well...I think OP's point is, we spent hours trying to get the vehicle in the first place, and so should you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GexAlmighty 54 Posted July 25, 2012 How about a steering wheel lock like is used IRL? and the only way to get rid of it is to have a toolbox on hand or of course a key, and the wheel lock itself was a drop item. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mildley 20 Posted July 25, 2012 here we go! wheel lock or being able to remove the items you put on.no reason if I put a tire on I cannot remove that same tire. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
