Type: improvement
Scope: Survivors who don't ant to do suicide by jumping from a window (ie ones who want to die quickly)
Description: IU hate going to the right building, if i have little AP left and there no tall buildings, id love to shoot myself, It can happen anywhere BUT if you commit suicide in a building its like this "You go to the roof, you look down, you put the gun to your head, you hear a gunshot and nothing else" (ie you shoot yourself and fall off the building)also, I thank whitehouse for reminding me, you can do this feature anywhere, there will be a button added (only if the firearm has ammo) and the warning smiler to the jumping from the window

if you like the idea, but would like to see changes, constructive criticism is welcome

Discussion (Suicide by firearm V2)

As long as your spelling is fixed up a bit when it goes to voting, it can pass as it goes around the problems before. Possible for a new zombie player(after playing as a survivor) would be able to walk up to buildings and shoot themselves to save some movement AP, and zombies could go to a mall as a survivor, wait for their AP to come back in safety and then shoot themselves and have 2AP to get back up and then beat on the barricades although the actual scope of that being a problem depends. Over-all not too bad, but as a survivor it would just make it worse having to wait three days to get revived when a zombie can turn back in a second no matter where they were revived.--Zach016 17:26, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

so you want me to put it up for voting? and I'll fix the spelling--Worthog117 17:57, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

First clarify that it is possible both inside and outside. Second, mention that this will add another button to the interface. Third, suggest a warning message for when you click the suicide button (so accidentally clicking doesn't kill you). - Whitehouse 19:20, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

OK I'll put those on--Worthog117 21:04, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

I think I remember seeing this before... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:20, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

it is version 2, and not all dupes are bad,some idea's can be better thought out, or more plausible with the times. Even a slight change can make a huge difference.--Zach016 02:35, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

This is a flawed concept. I can see it only benefiting two groups. Firstly, spiteful survivors who would choose to kill themselves and rob the zombies of XP for killing them. Secondly, windowledging PKers who kill people then jump out the window to avoid retribution. I believe this was originally suggested to make UD more 'realistic'. This version, however, has been bastardised into something more unrealistic than the current state of affairs. Why would suicidal survivors always go up to the roof to kill themselves? Why would they only use firearms - people have been killing themselves with knives for millenia? --Pavluk A! E! 11:21, 3 December 2007 (UTC)


This is cool... But add "cut self" button where you 10 HP damage, and if you die you fall out the window. UCFSD 16:33, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

What next, an "Emo" skill which allows you to cause 20 damage instead of 10? Seriously, suicide is fine the way it is. --Pavluk A! E! 16:41, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Well there are downsides to every skill

with firearms a bit more aviable to even the diagonsised lunitic and a more insurity of success, they may get used for suicide a bit more often then cutting ones wrist. Using that arguement to kill it can be used just as much to push it forward, why would they only kill themselves by jumping?--Zach016 03:02, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Firearm suicides are much quicker end efficient than jumping, you conserve AP and die much queicker, a clean, quick headshot...--Worthog117 13:23, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Unless you miss, and only take most of your bottom jaw off. Regardless, the objections to this are not in terms of 'realism', but of game mechanics. --Pavluk A! E! 14:26, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Just add "Slit own throat" or "Chop own leg," seriously, you slit your own throat, you die in seconds, provided you actually get your corroded arteries, and that would be with a knife. The "Chop own leg" thing would work if you had a fire axe, because is you chop your own leg, eventually, you'll lose so much blood you die, provided you actually hit your calf ROFLMFAO.

Keep - It could be implemented simply by making yourself a chooseable target in the pistol and shotgun attack dropdown menus, leading to an instakill. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by BlueSpurt (talkcontribs) 03:32, August 2, 2009.
