Burning Bridges Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I wanted to suggest more diseaseslice* (no basic hygiene)tooth abscess (too many candy bars and no toothbrush) -> requires pulling toothscury (no vitamin-C intake) -> requires for example pine needle teafrostbite (could be related to the condition of shoes/gloves and exposure times?) -> requires treatment, in later stages amputation?pneumonia (again something related to clothing / running)*Before making this post I had a severe laughing fit, because I imagined someone's reaction seeing the game ending screen: "You died from pubic lice" I also suggest disease has different degree of severity. Could have 2 or 3 grades: mild, serious, severe (life threatening)A mild disease untreated coud deteriorate to serious and then to severe.One should not die from diarhhea and food poisoning 99% of the time, even when not taking antibiotics. One day in bed, unable to do any work is already a severe punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multiafonso Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I like the idea of more diseases, for example frostbite, pneumonia, etc, as you said. However, I recon there shouldn't be very specific diseases that not everyone might know. Everyone knows food poisoning and dehydration, etc., but not everyone knows all of those (I'm not speaking for myself). I also think frostbite (if it's added) shouldn't require amputation, simply for the fact that if you amputated your arm you'd surely die, so there's no point in doing it. I quite like the idea of the severity, but I don't think all mild diseases should have the risk of evolving into severe ones, they could have a 5-15% possibility of getting worse.

Burning Bridges Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Well, I am sure the developers have thought of most things I mentioned and the specifics would need to be worked out.Though it would crack me up if I could get credit for pubic lice.Amputation for frostbite is certainly not a whole arm or a leg. But sometimes toes have to be amputated.And I think that toe amputation and pulling teeth would go perfectly in sync with the "how far would you go" motto.Btw an interesting anecdote. During the 50s or 60s a Soviet polar explorer fell ill with appendicitis. He was completely alone in the antarctic station with no help in sight, so he removed his own appendix with the help of a mirror, survived and made it into the medical history books.

multiafonso Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Auch... that might have hurt . And the pubic lice idea is fantastic, LMAO with that. But let's give 'em some time, I guess they'll figure out a way to introduce more diseases, I'm sure they won't stick with the food poisoning .

Burning Bridges Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Imagine the narrators voice, "those pubic lice are killing me" :lol: Would also love when you get tooth problems because you eat too many candy bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multiafonso Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Yeah I agree. And oh god I think they would have to make more than one take to say that :lol: cause they'd never stop laughing at that ahahha :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
