_Gold_ Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 So today I was looting some houses, and I came to a one way door shed and ,surprise surprise, the door was locked. That had me thinking, why doesn't PZ have a kick down/shoulder barge door system? Kicking down doors would require more strength but would have a rarer chance to sustain injuries. While shoulder barging doesn't require as much strength, but has a higher chance to sustain injuries. There would also be a high chance of the door coming off it's hinges, and if it doesn't, the door isn't able to properly lock, and zombies can just walk in. So this idea would be great for raiding, but for finding a great safe-house..... Leave your opinions on this idea, criticism is welcome MadDan, Johnny, xan713 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDan Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Dude, I was about to post the same suggestion. The only animation available is shove (which does make noise like you're breaking it down) but that should be changed to a shoulder barge animation when in range or using the right click menu. xan713 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir.twiggy Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Just wondering, but you realize you can smash down doors with axes, bats, sledgehammers, hammers, etc! I understand to have a new animation for unarmed smashing of doors would be cool, but for now there is another way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knox, Lousville etc. Don't give a car a new paint job before it's off the assembly line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't saying to do this any time soon, it's just an idea that popped into my head, and I thought I should just share itJust wondering, but you realize you can smash down doors with axes, bats, sledgehammers, hammers, etc! I understand to have a new animation for unarmed smashing of doors would be cool, but for now there is another way! I totally understand, but if you don't have a sledgehammer or axe, it's tedious work jacksonap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloDiaspora Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Having the ability to break down weaker doors, like those you'd find inside a house, or on a garden shed, without a melee weapon would be nice. Just make the shoulder-shoving slower, louder, and more exhausting than using a melee weapon, and you'd be good to go. Kinda like unarmed combat against a zombie. Sure, you can do it, but it's a lot more efficient/safer to use a bat or axe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValueOfGravity Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Actually, kicking is better than shoulder barging. Wait, again, who uses their shoulder to open a door? That's like trying to break the lock with your pinky finger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viceroy Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Well it stands to reason that your living character could destroy a door when a zombie can. And living is a huge bonus when it comes to doing damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
