Marijuana/Cannabis/Weed?

[Pug]

I'm really curious what purposes this is gonna serve and what kind of gameplay mechanics/dynamics will be affected by it. Personally I'm excited for it! What do you guys think?

Enough about real life marijuana. What about some more ideas or concerns for how it might effect DayZ? Farming ideas? Locations? Rarity? Suggestions!

you started a topic knowing that this would happen.

but to carry on the topic as you would like. its real world uses and application would be pretty much the same. as for farming though im not sure if the climate would make cultivation very easy without a grow tent or something light that, with that being said it should be quite rare and location would be where ever you can set up. you would need a stronghold to protect your crop. canna is extremely easy to grow when you have the right equipment and would be a very high value resource as pharma type drugs should be extremely rare,forcing players to live of the enviroment. Alot of AAA titles have drugs in them, more so in open world survival type games, fallout comes to mind, they even solved morality issue rather well with implementing addiction and its negative affects on your stats. (no one kicked off about that btw) just look for drugs in over games and see how they dealt with this fictitous morallity ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I indeed knew it would happen, I'm just encouraging more people to come back to the point. I hadn't even thought of grow tents, and I definitely agree with you that pharmas should be rare.

So... getting back to actual topic. I`ve seen it being mentioned in an interview. Cannabis was supposed to allow some cool graphical effects, which would use new capabilties of Enfusion renderer.

no morthine fine anti biotics fine cannabis a bit ott

by all means use drugs to make your self better but keep them to a minimum its crazy bringing new items in when the games still glitchy and framrate chronic its a good game but cannabis or hemp aint gonna make it better bit of responsibility from the devs would be nice .
yeah teach kids survivl but ive never been on a survival course where cannabis was in use or was alllowed im totally against drugs like i said unless medicinal and is needed in game for injuries sustained in game . in fact why not go the whole hog and let us find a packet of cigarettes we got matches lol

The "logic" you try and push here is somewhat hypocritical dont you think? You are okay with one kind of drug but not the "illegal" one, why is that? And furthermore you are okay with ppl forcefeeding you disenfectant or all kinds of potential deadly things, killing left, right and center but not weed? Oh no that could trigger some kind of compulsing in kids to venture out and start smoking weed but here is my question though; if kids learn(how you put it) to smoke weed ingame would they not also learn to torture, kill and maim aswell and put it into use too?

got to say you have a genuine point septic i just think that the devs should draw a line as to what is acceptable and no im not ok with force feeding people with disinfectant but then i have my own agenda i kill if im attacked i dont kill for the thrill of watching someone suffer and i certainly dont kos

Cannibalism and not weed? Come on man, maybe worry more about getting the mechanics fixed and less worried about adding content that has no purpose or morals. I honestly don't think pot needs to be added. I mean really?

totally agree mechanics need sorting before any more additives i would rather have a good working engine than pot smoking kossers camping in berezino lol

perhaps this could be used to craft rope or burlap sacks however they make those

Yeah hemp does actually have quite a few uses, so I assume they don't intend it for just smoking (if they intend it for smoking at all).

Although I could see it helping with certain illnesses that may be included later, and as an alternative painkiller, with side effects, like alchohol hopefully will, and regular painkillers should work.

They add in the ability to cultivate cannabis, I'd like to see the crafting of moonshine when they add in alcohol. You could make a car run on ethanol if you knew how.

But we're talking about Cherno here, and as we all know it gets damn cold. Thats a plant problem my friend. I think it would be cool if there were small individual grow tents that can hold only one plant (since they can yield a lot). Im visualising something in the style of those pop up butterfly environments- just without the butterfly netting. Maybe normal tents will be able to have cannabis placed in them to help protect them, since a sudden surplus of cannabis growing tools would be a little crazy. Also, we'd probably have to worry about keeping the bud itself in a container or waterproof items/clothing to make sure it doesnt get wet. Because as we all know: wet cannabis is sad and bad.

Yes have to agree there's no real reason why drugs are needed in games, could send the wrong message to the young players, thats its ok to use drugs " Really Bad Idea" IMO. :(

So using that logic the devs should remove everything "drug related" or are some drugs okay?

OMG dude we were talking about Marijuana/Cannabis/Weed, not paracetamol and other minor perscription drugs, stop twisting the facts to make people look dumb, only makes you look dumber.

"OMG dude" you REALLY look "dumb" when you don't know that "minor prescription drugs" are MUCH worse for you than the effects of Marijuana/Cannabis/Weed. So how about you actually look up a few "facts" instead of trying to make people smarter than you obviously are look stupid?

And any game you have no problem playing that includes murder, theft, torture and cannibalism means you don't get to say jack sh*t about the "morality" of drug use. If you had ANY morality issues, you already wouldn't be playing the game. Getting tired of preachers here who would torture you, kill you, and then steal your gear right before they BBQ your azz biching about the "morality" of pot...
