a wish list of sorts (gameplay related)

[suiside 20]

if been thinking about things that would help the game with over all gameplay and immersion

rather than posting them in other threads separately i think this post will be more of a summary

i would like people to comment and add things other than "bigger guns" "more vehicles" and that sort

of things.

these are like small things for game play sake and immersion.

1)

since bandit skins have been eliminated i think we can all agree that for survivors ghillies are the new bandit skins, atleast from my experience i think it is sad, and would like a return of the bandit skin, if some what modified to a less obvious yet noticeable change.

i suggested arm bands, which you can chose to equip from start in certain colors

once you have killed it changes to black and when killing is a habit or your game and you have chosen to wear the armband it will be on both arms ? (or some thing like that)

maybe make a notice since it is in game whether it is bandit kill or survivor kill,

this would also help with clans and identification as they could use the clan tag option in arma to display a logo on the arm band (this would probably be some work on the devs part to realize but i think it is worth exploring)

2)

gutting an animal for meat is a nice feature but it would be nice if the skin or feathers could be used for warmer clothes for example. (then you can have a third option to regain warmth)

(personally i think it is a waste to kill an animal just for the meat in a survival situation)

3)

cars and trucks have such a load carrying capacity that they are rarely used for what they are meant to be used, transportation, now they sit idle in far of fields as glorified tents which i think is a game spoiler, they should be driven, the roads should be alive with these vehicles, and limiting the load capacity would help with that a lot.

4)

no backpack under a ghillie suit,

irl you can not wear an alice under a ghillie and not even a patrol pack, a vest yes that can be worn under a ghillie so that should definitely be changed in my opinion because now there are too many pack mules in ghillie that carry multiple guns and loot which i think is unrealistic and does not help the game nor team play.

ghillie = no backpack

5)

working electricity

there is a perfect thread around here explaining all that.
