ToY SoLDiER (DayZ) 31 Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) I've recently watched the hunger games (also read the books) and one thing that I really like about the hunger games is the death message style. Simply makes a bell sound that all can hear. It made me think about DayZ and how awesome I think that would be if it was brought to DayZ no longer would you know who died. And if you weren't listening carefully you wouldn't even know someone had died. Also the closer the person is to you who died the louder the sound of the bell (for you). Anyway this is just my opinion and suggestion. Edited August 8, 2012 by ToY SoLDiER Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 8, 2012 Doesn't really fit with the atmosphere of a post apocolyptic world really.P.S - I just watched the Hunger Games today. Maybe a good idea for a different survival Mod though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

con7act 29 Posted August 8, 2012 When i first started playing this mod and had the music on, i actually was thinking that one sound happens everytime someone dies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(even if it was simply no name was given, they just died.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RECphantom 31 Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) I like the current system they have in place. Simple, and informative.*edit* I like to know who i kill Edited August 8, 2012 by RECphantom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soviet Tiger 7 Posted August 8, 2012 I just feel that it wouldn't fit into the whole atmosphere that DayZ currently has. Interesting suggestion though. Btw, why wasn't this posted in the suggestion section? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToY SoLDiER (DayZ) 31 Posted August 8, 2012 No. This is day z, not a love story like Romeo and juliet.I have no idea what you're trying to say, a sound is a love story? I'm sorry I think you've got confused and just posted any random crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Askeladd 26 Posted August 8, 2012 Well i se the charm in the idea, but as stated above, i woudnt like it in this game, basicly becourse i use the sound so much in this game:p i dont even like the churchbells in the game!!!!:P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToY SoLDiER (DayZ) 31 Posted August 8, 2012 Okay well I thought I would bring it out there and see what happens. I would like to see a new system for announcing deaths, this just isn't it I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tarkastio 38 Posted August 9, 2012 Maybe something like nearby churchbells ring(In the creepiest tone possible, of course), but then you would have to think about who is ringing the bells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RudestBuddhist 76 Posted August 9, 2012 Okay well I thought I would bring it out there and see what happens. I would like to see a new system for announcing deaths, this just isn't it I guess.No, you have a good idea, but like others have said, a bell would be out of place for the game. Now if the atmospheric music was dynamic, there could be an ominous sound when a player is killed. That would be a subtle way of doing it and it hopefully wouldn't throw you out of the game's experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DemonGroover 8836 Posted August 9, 2012 Hunger games is a blatant rip off of Battle Royale - pretty much what Day Z sometimes is, a free for all last man standing PvP deathmatch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wtfosaurus 30 Posted August 9, 2012 I don't really think the games atmosphere lends itself to a mechanic like this. There are a few things that could be implemented from the hunger games though. Maybe have a different game mode that last person standing and as players are killed off supplies become more and more scarce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
