Nightmaster Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 That is just a sugestion, but how about you devs introduce utility belts in the game? Today there are several models of utility belts available that range from simple tool accesory for carpenters/laborers to survivalist belts used in wilderness treks and the like. Several diferent types could exist in the game, from simple storage option that you wear, belts that count as several tools at once for purpose of crafting and policeman belts, that would allow one to have his pistol holstered and with available ammo nearby. What you guys think? MyTJ and Gustav 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfeClaw Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm sure things like this will be implemented when they add more options for clothing (Headgear, belts, gloves, shoes, socks, etc). I'm also sure that it's on their list of things to do, but more important things like NPC's and vehicles are probably going to be added first.

Nightmaster Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 The problem with vehicles (except for bikes and horses) is fuel. Since the amount of every type of item is pre-generated and limited and the fact that there are like only 4-5 gas stations in the maps, any type of vehicle that uses combustion engines would be worthless. All the possible fuel you acquire would be better used in generators (if you find one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfeClaw Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Very true, I'm sure various ideas will be considered. I'm personally not too bothered about vehicles, but I would like to be able to loot them. That, and they'd help to fill the map up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would be usefull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water is the issue here but then again the idea of the game is that it will be difficult to survive.

ZombieGrinder Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 As far as I know, a horse need to eat 2,5% of his weight a day. And grass isn't all he needs in order to stay well. He needs 40% grain per meal and 60% hay, otherwise he need 3 times that eating simple grass.. quite of an expensive vehicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZombieGrinder Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 So we have to be cowboys and "lazo" them? In any case our horse will be a prey for zombies making really hard to leave them wild.Anyway that's just my point of view, don't want to argue.

Well... we are prey to zombies too and that dont stop us from protecting ourselfs right? Depending on where is your safe house, you can defend your horse really easy. Also if left free to feed, the horse can efortless outrun any zombie... that is... if the zombie dont use a vehicle himself ZombieGrinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the possible fuel you acquire would be better used in generators (if you find one). Looting fastfood (i.e. Spiffo's and Pizza Whirled) should yield grease that can be use for combustion. It might seem strange at first glance but it does exist. I saw it on a serious news channel and Mythbuster has done a piece on it too. That gave me an idea for another post on hot oil to scald zombie or NPC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
