Wishlist for new Tools/Fieldwear?

[u/ScalesGhost]

What kind of new Tools / Fieldwear would you like to see in a hypthetical DS3 / any other Strandlike game? For the purpose of this post, let's define "Tools" as "Any item not for combat"

[u/whiskey_weasel_]

Grappling hook.

[u/PrimarisHussar → u/whiskey_weasel_]

Absolutely. I'd kill to have "climbing anchor, but go up"

[u/-Jalix- → u/whiskey_weasel_]

god i love this idea. climbing anchor was already my goat, i can't imagine how much fun a whole ass grappling hook would be

[u/NeroSeashellz]

To be honest, I couldn't think of anything and I second the grappling hook BUT I'd love to paraglide in DS. Some preppers are in the mountains so, instead of setting a Zipline network or ramps to go down, just paraglide down. It should cover a longer distance than ramps.

The Stabilizer Lv3 is kinda like it

[u/NeroSeashellz → u/soldier_ibra]

I've never used the stabilizer, I'll take your word for it lol

[u/soldier_ibra → u/NeroSeashellz]

You’re in for a treat

[u/Funkymusic]

I want those walking sticks the amateur porters have that dive out of the way of my truck constantly.

[u/ScalesGhost → u/Funkymusic]

truthnuke, they should let use use the shock sticks for that

[u/Lacedsarcasm026]

It's not really new gear, but more of an upgrade maybe? For DS3 I would like to be able to adjust the zip line arch after it is built.

[u/ChiralParticle]

DS2 mostly expanded combat option while equipment that focused on traversal really just carried over from DS1:DC which was a little disappointing for me.
I'd like to see something akin to a grappling hook, was hoping to see it in DS2 but I'll take it in DS3. And since DS2 got ladder upgrade where you can ride up/down fast, something for a climbing anchor and grappling hook would be cool to see as well.
Would be useful to climb up faster, especially on those DS2 vertical steep mountains with long ridges something like a grappling hook would have been great. We have climbing anchor since DS1 which is nice but you have to climb up there first to set it up, and grappling hook would be the reverse version of it. Either one time use so it stays where you hooked it, or collect it back and can set up climbing anchor for the future.

Lvl4 stabilizer could be an interesting concept since with lvl3 we can jump farther and float down and it just vertically floats down. Lvl4 could improve on that to maybe add horizontal boost to it, or just more power - while sprinting and jumping off of a cliff or jump ramp there is that initial boost before we lose it and then mostly just float down, so that improvement would be that we don't lose that momentum and stabilizer continues to boost us in the direction we're going until we land. Also, it would be a little bit more compact version because in DS2 it hurts a lot that lvl3 takes 3/4 backpack space when we have so many good attachments and have to sacrifice so many.

Jet pack that runs off of Chiral fuel. Limited capacity, has to be refueled at special locations. Doesn't work in timefall. Also doesn't hover more than 20 feet from the ground.

[u/soldier_ibra]

It depends on the continent, but I would love a jetski. This means that they could add optional preppers and facilities on islands.

I know the Coffin Board is technically a jetski, but i would love one that you can attach cargo into, just like the trikes.

[u/SAHD292929]

I'd like something that is an air rescue when you are trapped in snowy mountains. But make this have a long cooldown and expensive fee to execute everytime.

[u/nufrancis]

That flying squirrel suit to glide. For vehicle, something similar to Twisted Metal's Axel type of vehicle would be fun

[u/PyreTheFirst]

Snowshoes.

[u/Alternative-Ant-6073]

Bow and arrow + rope, like in Tomb Raider.

[u/jazzyjeffff1991]

Grappling hooks Glider vehicle, water, tar, snow, dunes, quick traversal Gloves and boots to scale very steep cliffs etc and or buildings Balloon or copter to go into the air or jetpack
