Holstering Weapons

[C4SINO (DayZ) 20]

I believe a lot of players do not trust one another because they have their weapon drawn and ready to fire. You see another person with a gun at the ready you straight away assume their a threat. What if we could holster our guns?

I know you can lower your weapon but I don't think a lot of people know this, so what if by scrolling the mouse button you could "Holster Weapon"? So if your holding a long arm it gets strapped on the back, a pistol obviously goes into it's holster. This way when your out in the wild, you will not see someone and immediately think "threat", hopefully this way players will stop shooting on site if people give the intention their not looking for a fight.

If you get shot doing this, it's simply your own fault for not paying attention and bad luck.

Wouldn't be a horrible idea, as I don't even think my "lower weapon" has a key set to that function yet. :lol:

Never had to lower a weapon yet.

I think it's "Left Ctrl+Left Mouse Button".

It was only an idea, and I get the feeling a lot of people's reactions would be "Why the hell would I want to holster my weapon!?"

if it could be coded in it would be an awomse feature...i wonder how that would affect the gameplay in general ^_^

I think it could be coded as it has the animations, i actually don't know how it would affect gameplay, to be honest I think most people would ignore it unless they knew the purpose of it.
