RaysGoodLiquor 93 Posted August 27, 2012 Blood bags and SD ammo already make pretty good currency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 27, 2012 *Moved to suggestions* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CerebralZombie (DayZ) 151 Posted August 27, 2012 You really got your phone out to make sure you wouldn't forget this horrid idea, and posted it here asap?Yikes, but I can understand the urge to post an idea like this if you're new to the forums. (So members aren't even new and they would shoot an idea that gets blammed.)Any way, that's definitely a no go my good sir...Also a heat pack as currency makes the whole suggestion that much worse! :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmashT 10907 Posted August 27, 2012 Or people could just barter like they already do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spawn (DayZ) 217 Posted August 27, 2012 currency could be tin cans. bottles. things that people would need in an appocolyps. these items can be melted down to make items needed. I think iots a good idea. if there was a zombie appocolyps do you thionk everyone would really be running around trying to PVP all day? the human race would be wiped out in 45 mins look at the average life span. and when the population has 4 people left and they kill eachother till there is 1 man left in the world. what then he survived but will die because he stood on a nail and has a staff infection and cant walk and its poisoning his blood and he dies because he killed all the people who have medical exp.idiots currency of some sort is a good idea and adds a purpose to the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spawn (DayZ) 217 Posted August 27, 2012 imagine the mod came out with currency and people said ohhh take currency away.the respose would be no if you take it away it would take away the dayz experience.idiots have no clue I think about what they are saying and just troll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spawn (DayZ) 217 Posted August 27, 2012 soulds like these people dont want to play a zombie appocolyps game.if there was such a thing items would be of value to players and would be used to trade. beans could be a currency. tin cans to be melted in to tin sheets for shelter. think people. this is why you guys dont make games because you dont think 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lt_Dutchy 1 Posted August 27, 2012 Idea might be good but wont work if the mod, maybe in the standalone game like u said. The problem is like several people stated is that heatpacks take up inventory slots. If you want to trade with someone u need atleast 10 heatpacks on you....that means also 10 inventory slots!! No one will do that..the problem also is that most people rather kill you then try to trade :P 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R3cK 8 Posted August 27, 2012 if there ever will be currency, then there should NOT be any npc or shop that gives you a default value of the currency.so the players will choose theirself about the economy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sixfeetgiantbunnyrabbit 40 Posted August 27, 2012 said it before in another thread a week ago:Fuel would make a decent "currency".Rocket said in an interview he´d like the standalone to feature more vehicles but with chernarus being low on fuel. So with driveable vehicles a luxury (faster travel, safer travel, quicker to loot spawns, simply more convenient), fuel would make sense being some sort of currency. But the standalone certainly won´t impose that on the players. It´s up to everyone of us how to handle trades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
