What does Player location rubberbanding mean?

Now I understand Rocket has already said he doesn't want special infected like the Left for dead series because he wants it to be more authentic, but hear me out. Now i'm not talking about massive overpowered zombies or bosses or anything like that, I just want different kinds of zombies. The main thing that annoys me most of all about DayZ is that it is supposed to be a zombie horror survival game, but what it really is deep down is an FPS that you need to search for loot and fight against "bandits" with the occasional nuisance of a couple zombies walking up and making you bleed for a couple seconds before you hit them once and they die, then you patch yourself up. Zombies are really only a threat when you first spawn then they just get annoying and not really a challenge. Don't get me wrong, I love DayZ, even when it was a mod, But its getting stale very quickly with the zombies. To me it would be a lot better game with different types of zombies, not only would it make zombies an actual challenge it would also make people friendly because it would be hard to survive alone and people would have other things to fight. I've been thinking for a couple hours and I made a list of which zombies could be added that wouldn't make the game unauthentic and would spice up game play. Bloated zombie A fat slower zombie, because honestly mostly every single zombie game/movie/series had at LEAST one fat/bloated zombie. Such as Doom, zombie land, dead island, and even the famous Walking dead series. Crawlers A zombie with no legs that crawls, a lot slower but harder to see than the average zombie. Again mostly every single zombie thing includes crawlers. Armored zombies An armored zombie, I mean with military people dying there has to be at least a couple people who died inside an armored suit. Harder to kill. Can take gear from them. (but remember, to kill them ya gotta damage some of the gear.) Swamp zombies Pruned up, wet, Green, nasty zombies found near swamps. The reason I would want these is because I see a bunch of swamps everywhere that look neat but pretty much useless. Noise zombies/Siren A zombie that should be avoided or taken out swiftly and silently. They make noises that attract other zombies. Swarm zombies/Pack zombies Zombies that mainly stick together. Making getting past them a whole lot harder and a whole lot funner. Runners Fast skinny zombies but also weak. More of a threat to almost dead players and packs of them can be extremely deadly. Brute​ A slow, tough, and large zombie, should be fought at a far range so it has less of a chance of getting you, Not recommended fighting with a melee weapon. Now it doesn't have to be HUGE, just a bit bigger. I understand its a stretch and I understand its really early alpha but I honestly think they should at least consider adding a couple different types of zombies, because right now Dayz still feels like its set in a War-zone with a couple zombies added. Also keep in mind I am in no way hating at all on DayZ because I understand they are obviously and have obviously been putting a lot of work into it, This is just what I think would be cool to have and add more fright to zombies in DayZ. Also feel free to comment below of what you think and also zombies you or others have come up with that you would like to see.

But I don't think zombies really die from bloodloss

I was also thinking that maybe some zombies got run over from people trying to get away in a car and they got split in half. Zombies don't really feel pain or anything so its not like getting split in half would stop them from trying to feed on human flesh.

Sorry no, I didn't really see anything about new zombie types.

I would really love to see those three (And maybe even more) of those type of building. The main reason I would like to see those is because then people can try to take it over as a camp and other people could attempt to maybe raid them, sort of like The walking dead. The Jail: The jail could have Cells that lock, a Wardens office, an armory, a cafeteria, a medic station, basement, a courtyard, and watch towers. Also it could be gated and fences but the fences can be run over by trucks and bigger vehicles. It would also be nice to get a big group and make it like a base and have to defend it from zombies and raiders. The cells that lock would also add to taking people hostage. ​Psychiatric hospital/Mental hospital: Pretty much the same idea as the jail but it would be there to make Dayz have more than one major place like this it could also have loot like Straitjackets. The rooms could also be used like the jail cells. Better Farms: It would also be nice to have better farms, with a farm house, barn, and Open fields that you can watch for zombies and players from the Farm house windows with a sniper or binoculars. Also maybe add a gardening system and then the fields can be used for food. The main reason I would really like to have these three types of building is to add huge places that people can take over or run in them and actually have to explore the place for supplies. It would also make being friendly and forming groups a lot more worth it so you can attempt to take it over or raid it for supplies. I know these ideas aren't really perfect but I would like to know what other people think of them. Also the "New" map still feels more like an old boring place rather than a Zombie infested place. It still feels like an Arma II map but with zombies.

I would really love to have a better Character Customization, It would really make having teams a lot easier and keeping track of who is who so you don't end up killing your friends.
