I've been playing DayZ for a while, and experienced this "bug" However, a quick note to developer, I am now not sure at all it is a "real bug" Just my 2 cents... When we log-out, our Character sit for around 30-45sec before really log-out. In the meantime, If someone or a monster kill you. Your character will be dead, and next time you will log on, you will be a fresh re-spawn. Now that Zombie re-spawn and are more aggressive, I always log-off on 2nd+ floor of a building and never lost my character yet. Remember... A player could logon and still kill you in mean time. my suggestion to solve this would be like I've seen in another game. Add an hidden for player state: SAFE and UNSAFE. When you log-out in UNSAFE state, the game would pop-up "You are Unsafe! Are you sure?" If you click yes, you get the 45sec timer. Now, if you try in SAFE state, you just log-out. No warning. Instant save/log-out. UNSAFE would = In sight of another player/monster and/or bleeding and/or any other bad situation. In the same direction... When we log-in! We have a 10-20 sec unable to move loading graphic. Back from a server reboot/crash, This lead sometime to getting eat by zombie while loading. To resolve this, I think character should be invisible to MONSTER (Still visible to player to avoid abuse) until 30sec or until we start moving/clicking any button.
