Altman 4 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) We all know tents need some work... I think we can add a feature that will make them more useful and help players some.I think tents and a "base" or campground is vital.. being in a tent or campground area should help your humanity.. where as your humanity should suffer from being alone without a place of shelter or a "safe" area. (even thought tents aren't completely safe, I am sure your characters do feel safer in a familuar place with storage)I wouldn't mind an option to "rest" or "sleep" be added to a tent. the Sleep or Rest feature will help you to slowly gain some blood and health back over time.. perhaps you go to your tent and sleep your character lays in the tent volunerable and it gives you 50-75 blood each hour. If you left your guy volunerable sleeping in his tent.. there a good chance your going to get whacked.. (think of skyrim sleeping with their timer system)Maybe the sleep would only take actually 5 minutes of real time or so but you could go back every hour to rest to continue regenerating some health. This way people don't go afk to heal up or even need to.. They just run to their tent every hour to rest up a bit..esentially giving you 10 blood a minute for up to five minutes total, no more than 50 blood total per real life hour so after their first 5 minutes of sleeping.. they can't get anymore blood from resting until that hour long counter is up.This will make stalking tent areas fun too. Becuase there is a chance someone in actively using the tent to rest and will need to come back to it semi often. Currently tents are just for storage. I place extra stuff in mine and often don't go back to it for a long long time... the more I use it now the more likely it is to be found.. someone sees me going back and fourth... this heal feature will encourage people like me to actually use the tent more.

Namyar 11 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) 50 - 75 blood per hour? dude just go find a supermarket and eat food , 200 blood per can, or 800 per cooked meat Edited August 31, 2012 by Namyar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomas889 14 Posted August 31, 2012 Maybe up it to 300/400 blood depending on how long you stay? You've got to make it worthwhile to go back, 50-75 blood just isn't worth the trek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pastriot 0 Posted August 31, 2012 OK, but before they implement anything, and i dont think they will implement anything before the standalone is out, they should fix the tents not saving problems...I really hope they want to bring us an hotfix to fix up the tent-problems!It´s boring to have tents but they arent useful.I get so much weapons etc but cannot put them in a tent and not in a car because all cars will be on spawnplace with standard inventory after a restart.And all things put in a tent will be lost!How should i have fun running around with an M4A1 CCO SD and AS50 oder M107 or L85AWS kill ppl or zombies, alive a time find som other AS50 or the other good weapons and cant collect them to be well armed fast when im going to die?Then the whole camp-system would be Bullshit!

Ajvkorn 72 Posted August 31, 2012 Where as skyrim is a single player game and this is a game connected to a hive, this would not work. At least the sleeping part. You can't just fast forward time like you can in a single player game. If you slept for 5 minutes in the game, it would have to be 5 minutes. You can't try and say 5 minutes would be an hour in a game like this. Either you sleep for an hour and get all your health back, which would be a fair trade since you could get killed, but still needs to be some sort of motivation for it. Otherwise you can just ask a friend for a blood bag or eat/glitch your way back up to 12k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
