Gajit 1 Posted August 27, 2012 As a hero my favourite past time is tracking / following bandits and killing them.If dogs are implemented into the game. A good perk for a hero would be if they dog was able to follow a scent trail.Maybe you can loot something off the bandit and you can use it to let your dog get a scent.This would add a good twist for the bandits aswell nto knowing if they ar ebeing tracked or not 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 27, 2012 A far as I'm aware dog's will be able to track other players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlaciusTS 7 Posted August 27, 2012 Perhaps you could ask the dog to look for usefull supplies and he could lead you to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scratch 7 Posted August 27, 2012 Bandits would have to get a suitable perk then also.Like a murder of ravens that start squawking when Heroes get within 200 Meters... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 27, 2012 It will be available to everyone. I'm not sure if dog's really care about your lifestyle choices ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cinnabuns 45 Posted August 27, 2012 I just hope after a while they stop shitting on the campfire... bastard dog crapped all up on my fire last night and I nearly froze to death sleeping.Some are trainable but the one I got is a bastard dog. He barks when I'm near enemies so they can hear him and then they know where I am too...Hate that damn dog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scratch 7 Posted August 27, 2012 It will be available to everyone. I'm not sure if dog's really care about your lifestyle choices ;)You should totally be able to get a raven as a Bandit.He can fly around and will come back once he sees something of interest, the direction he arrives from is a vague indicator of tents or cars or whatever.It's a giveaway to your position, but advantages must come at a price.Or maybe you have to choose between a raven and a dog, but they change how they look along with your humnaity a la Black & White.

cindyanne1 41 Posted August 27, 2012 I think there should be something more than just a difference in clothing as perks for both hero and bandit.My husband and I were talking about this earlier, and we think perhaps a hero could have a larger health pool, but a bandit would have greater accuracy (and/or less vunerable to pain.) Something like that.I do like the pet idea, though too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
