Helpful Hints.

Recommended Posts

If you have played Dark Souls or Demon Souls; then you have seen those orange messages written on the ground. All of them have some way of creating contact with the alive and the dead.

They tell you what is ahead, where to go, what to do, etc. What if this was applied in the game with spray tags that you type out?

Yes the system may be abused by trolls and other immature pests, but it can serve as a way to help survivors.... Survive!

I figured you meant on-screen pop-ups such as "Press G to access your bag" or something similar. While this sounds like a funny idea to play around with, how much abuse do you think you would see on the walls? Say if someone wrote a racist comment and screenshots of the game went around some people may assume this was the devs implementation. It puts the game on some rough ground when anyone can start writing whatever they like around the world.

Then again, perhaps the majority would actually spray helpful messages I do not know. Sounds like a way for bandits to trap people if I'm honest.

Yeah, I was just thinking of that... Bandits could post a message of a safe haven, but then ITS A TRAP!
