Blood and Bullet holes (Decals & Particle effects)

[LackLustreSurvivor 35]

I photoshopped some screenshots I took as a proof of concept.

I truly believe blood splatter, detailed bullet hole decals and blood spray particle effects really should be in DayZ. And in any future ArmA series game. It really adds to the immersion of combat and almost every first person shooter/combat game has bullet hole and blood decals these days. 

BE WARNED BLOOD!

And this is slightly different. I tried to simulate blood soaking into clothing. The blood patch would enlarge gradually. If you open both at the same time and then click on them in quick succession you'll see what I mean. The Last of Us has this feature.

I definitely would like to see blood trails for tracking. Basically all real life tracking models should be available such as tracks, blood trails, broken branches, and matted grass. Currently there really is only matted grass if someone was crawling would love to see this expanded.

That is... a lot of pictures ;D

 

No doubt this has been suggested before, but I still agree. Arma 2 (as far as I recall) sort of had decals, but they were quite ugly. It certainly didn't display decals of any sort on player models and vehicles. I think this would add a lot to the game. Make it less sterile.

 

As a side note, parallax for bullet holes would be really cool. Fresh blood splatters looking wet would also be a really nice touch.

this.

 

and we need snow. i want snow. i want snow trails.

 

 

and for the blood...

they've added actual suicide and canibalism, which i never thought would happen.

so i think adding some (convincingly) gore should be the minor subject for the vice squad to jump on.

 

but i guess there's a tons of work to be done further upwards on the priority list...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i wouldn't mind some gore...

 

 

gief me the GOAR :E

I'd enjoy seeing a little mist hit the walls when I put 7.62x54 through someone.

Good stuff would not only be good for gameplay but it would immerse players more in the game.

 

This combined with the injury system they have in the works will be fantastic.

Totally agree :D I do believe arma 3 has this and arma 2 has it somewhat?!!

 

 

Anyway when people die and they add dragging I just want to drag the body of my dead/unconsious friend and see the trail of blood behind it

This looks awesome. Great job OP

This sounds really good

ARMA games have an awful damage system. Basically they have a few textures for each limb, the head and the torso. Those textures always look the same no matter what killed the character. I really hope that when DAYZ introduces visual damage effects they won't go "the ARMA way"

Amazing pics OP, would love to see something like this added!

[SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ) 89]

I would love to see this in game! 

[Kurotaku-sama 6]

Its a cool idea and i hope we can see it in a few patches :)

I hope they can do something like this with the new renderer :)

[raynor009 204]

We definetly need this. It would add soo much to the immersion and overall feeling of the game. I really wish this will be implemented.

[barberousse 12]

this is what i want! your art related pics are very good ...maybe just a little bit more blood ....always more!!
