Stings2pee 106 Posted July 26, 2012 I think it would be cool to study a dead player's body and see a few stats in addition to just their username.Such as:- Number of days the player was alive prior to time of death.- Number of murders the player had prior to death.- Cause of death???For instance, if you kill a high-loot player... It would be crazy if you knew they survived for 45 days and had 20 murders. You'd be all like: "DAMNNN IMMA BOUNTY HUNTER". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeOverlord 150 Posted July 26, 2012 You know your a bounty hunter when it says...Bandit kills : 1...Instead of...Murders : 1...But yea I like the idea behind it...Study body seems to be a work in progress at the moment... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBadger (DayZ) 67 Posted July 26, 2012 Being honest I wouldn't mind it. I still get enough from just knowing the Username. When my squad got shot down it horrified me to find the pile of corpses I found were in fact NOT my teammates and this Bandit had been here for a WHILE.

Dazed 80 Posted July 26, 2012 Yea, I like this. One problem though is the hide body. Either we shouldn't be able to hide bodies or flies should go away when you hide them. Pretty pointless as is unless someone just wants to be an ass and deny the loot they can't take with them. common sense would say you could dig up that body and get the loot but w/e. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathcall 101 Posted July 26, 2012 Number of days alive could be somewhat "guessable" judging by the state of the person's hygene (facial hair for example). Though this would be really sketchy at best.Time dead could be easier.No way to tell how many murders a person comitted before dying, unless he's carrying out ears or something.Cause of death is somewhat already in the game, but it seems our guys can't tell infected scratches from bullet holes. Bet that's gonna get fixed eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

renulan 9 Posted July 26, 2012 Before they do anything with study body, they need to put the cause of death first. Being there in person would definitely be able to identify gunshot wounds compared to claws and bites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foamy_d_squirrel 10 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Personally, i would not care for knowing the stats.But i would welcome some CSI features like..."Oh Jethro, poor mr. ed has been laying around in the airfield's sun for several dayz. being badly punctured by some cal .50"Sure this topic has been covered else where already to the max.Also, would this feature be a great burden for servers, considering the fact that they have to save all the information for the bodies? + I wonder how many bodies ( respwaners included ) are created on an average playing day.

zeeb 6 Posted July 26, 2012 I do not think you should be able to hide a body without a shovel, who the hell would burry a budy with their bare hands? I dont think that in a zombie apocalypse the first thing you think about is burrying the body, but it is a tactic, that is why I think it is vital to insert Shovel. Also more tools should be avaible and a smaller tool inventory, which makes you prioritize certain tools like compass instead of toolbox, like 5 slots for tools only, would be great.Also the ability to drop tools on the ground like normal items. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

witalit@gmail.com 22 Posted July 26, 2012 A dirt mound should appear where bodies are buried.A new shovel tool should be added to the game to dig up said dirt mounds.Yes I like the idea, its real annoying when you hear the fly noise and can't find the body.
