pxmonkee added a comment to T109186: 2nd gun instead of Melee.

Why be limited to guns? Why not be able to have two melee weapons? Maybe you want to play as a farmer with a pitchfork and woodcutter's axe, or a construction worker with the pickaxe and sledgehammer? It would be interesting, that's for certain.

Honestly, there should be a variety of slings. Normal two-point slings that attach to each end of a rifle (all rifles/full-length shotguns, to sling over shoulder, or provide stability while shooting while standing), three-point slings that allow for you to carry the rifle in front of you (freeing up your back slot for another rifle or secondary melee weapon), one-point slings that can only be attached to certain vests (assault, smersh, hi-cap, plate carrier) and only certain guns (mp5k, m4, aks-74u, pistol-grip MP-133, RAK).

There should also be the ability to improvise a two-point sling for weapons using rope or the like.

How about slings for broken arms? Or QuikClot, a hemostatic agent used to rapidly stop bleeding? Amputation, and cauterization of wounds? Canes, that can double as a weapon (or even have a cane-sword)?

There's a lot of cool medical ideas that would make DayZ a lot more interesting, in my book. Also, considering the new horde mechanics that are being worked on, having some better medical capabilities would be awesome.

That picture makes me want to rage poop. I am aware that "Duck Tape" is a brand. A brand of what, you may ask? Oh, right - DUCT tape.

And yeah, the magic slots gotta go. Snap hooks or D-rings or carabiners would be a pretty good idea. Shit, if you had carabiners, rope, ice axes and stakes you could go rock climbing, or rappelling.

First-

*duct tape. As in tape you would use to patch holes in ducts, not tape that quacks at you if you get too close. Sorry, but it was driving me insane.

Second-

Honestly, there should be a variety of slings. Normal two-point slings that attach to each end of a rifle (all rifles/full-length shotguns, to sling over shoulder, or provide stability while shooting while standing), three-point slings that allow for you to carry the rifle in front of you (freeing up your back slot for another rifle or secondary melee weapon), one-point slings that can only be attached to certain vests (assault, smersh, hi-cap, plate carrier) and only certain guns (mp5k, m4, aks-74u, pistol-grip MP-133, RAK).

And agree, there should also be the ability to improvise a two-point sling for weapons using rope or rags or the like.

I also like the gun case idea, I'm just not sold on the "it can absorb two mosin rounds" idea, as most anything would be destroyed after absorbing a 7.62x54r bullet, much less two. Nor on the whole "it can carry three guns" point. I think it would be cool to have A GUN (one) and its' accessories in a gun case, and then be allowed to fit that gun case in a mountain pack or to be carried by hand/stored in a tent or vehicle.

Duct tape can already be used to repair/fortify a number of items, as well as be used as makeshift handcuffs. I do like the idea of using duct tape to tape somebody's mouth shut - it would disable their in-game comms, and if they tried to talk it would come out as "mmmrmph, mmmph!", or some other muffled sounds.
