Rek Seven 37 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) I think that if you rest next to a fire for 15 minutes or more you should get a well rested perk that lets you run a little faster, have to drink eat less often, recover blood overtime, recover from shock, etc.The perk should only last for an hour or so.Good idea or terrible?

Rek Seven 37 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Do fires heat your temp too?Yes of course they would, just like they do now. Currently you don't have to be at a fire for long to get warp, thus the fire isn't active for long. Maybe if there was some added incentive, people would light more fires and remain stationery long enough for me to shoot them :P Edited August 10, 2012 by Rek Seven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rek Seven 37 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Straight out of WoW.Not really sure I like it, sorry.That's okay if you don't like it, it's only an idea.I have never played wow but i think such a mechanic does simulate real life a little. I'd argue that a well rested person would be more alert that someone who has just run a marathon IRL. Edited August 10, 2012 by Rek Seven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boxman80 964 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Maybe we could also sing kumbaya to improve squad moral... okay that one was a jokelolIn all seriousness though I think that that there are already two good reasons to have a campfire, warmth and cooking meat - both of which already have positive affects on your character (cooked meat drastically inproving your blood levels too!). I don't think there are anymore realistic or feasable benefits needed. This kind of is similar ot the sleeping bags thread, which I do think is a good idea, giving players loot that actually benefits them when offline.
