semipr0 402 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Very simple early warning system for perimeter breaches, especially useful at night for survivor camps looking to ensure they have an early warning system for anyone approaching night camps.Pretty simple miltec that could be vastly useful in the "Survival" portion of DayZ, the M49A1 is not just an early warning system but also a potential deterrent to anyone who trips it as it can illuminate an area of roughly 250 meters once fired and stays airborne for over 15 minutes, keeping the tripped area illuminated during its descent, the illuminant cartridge has a self deploying parachute which causes the flare to fall at a slow descent back to the ground.If this is too high tech, there is no end of tin cans in the game....why aren't there rolls of twine/wire that you can use to combine tin cans + twine/wire for a trip rattle line, which is extremely low tech and easily made even by children.Just a thought I was having one night on a long watch in a deep forest.

Ribano 46 Posted July 27, 2012 i like this idea, perhaps it is too high tech but then again a wire fencing kit + road flare could produce the same results on a smaller scale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted July 27, 2012 I like your thinking! I want one right now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
butter_milch 66 Posted July 27, 2012 This is a great idea and probably pretty simple to implement.No need for mines or claymores which some noobs wanted.+1 - I hope this idea finds its way into the game :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iStP 8 Posted July 27, 2012 Really nice idea, would be cool to have them set up somewhere so you knew when people or zeds entered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
