Vehicles and physics! How would you like to see them integrated?

Gas stations and distributor are build to not explode and the exploding part of the gas station, which is fuel tanks, are deep underground covered by concrete and thick metal tanks. It is not possible to make gas station exploded in real life.

Nothing's impossible man ...

This was a car fire that spread to all the tanks , which then caused the gas station to explode.. It actually did look like a mini-Atom bomb lol ...

But note that the whole gas station was burning for a long, long time before underground tanks exploded. There is many youtube videos where a car hits in the gas station distributor and nothing happens or there it is set on fire with no explosion.

 

Now the gas station from your youtube link was whole on fire for probably 30+ minutes before its underground tanks exploded - now compare that to DayZ's Holywood 3 bullets in the pump explosion.

 

PS.

 

And for explosion you need underground tanks full of fuel of course so if gas station is pumped dry or even half full mini-nuke not gonna happen.

Yeah alright but..

 

Gas stations exploding like mini atom bombs are pure Holywood fiction. Gas station will not explode if some guy drop the Zippo lighter on poured fuel on the ground etc..

 

Gas station will not explode if you shoot the distributor and even if you crash a car in the distributor the worse that will happen it will get set on fire with no explosion.

I was simply saying it was more likely lol...

But Chernorus cars aren't modern :D They are made in 198X / 197X mostly so they are 20-30 years old.

 

There was the modern 08' Volkswagen Golf in ArmA 2, the 99' Corolla, and a 90's Hilux. That, and a varied array of other vehicles ranging from early seventies to middle 00's.

 

This game is NOT set in the Cold War.
