If the world is ravaged by a virus that wiped out pretty much the entirity of the human population, why the fuck anyone would would go anywhere without some form of protection? It's not some experiment or some local infection, the FRONT PAGE of the Day Z website states that it is global. How about we go to the logical conclusion to the shipwreck theory. You won't be wearing a backpack and you start with no bandages, coyote pack, or flashlight and you start off with nearly red food and dehydration, that will pretty much sum up the average person washed ashore. Last time I checked, Day Z was suppose to be a videogame, not Masochist Self Gratifying Time Waster.

I got to say, this pitch-black darkness is the most poorly designed thing I have ever encountered in a game that claims to be realistic. Unless there are thick clouds, you will never be in a situation in which you cannot see even a tiny bit using starlight or moonlight. If the nightime is going to be so dark that you cannot see three feet in front of you, make the chem light glow more than just a 1ft radius. At this point the chem lights are less useful than glow in the dark stickers.

Just updated and found myself being griefed by makarov bandits. Can't find a weapon without getting spawn killed.

I must be having a bad day. Went on 15 servers, all of them had makarov bandits murdering newly spawned players at all the major early spawn points. I'm thinking about uninstalling the mod because of the insane increase in unplayability and griefing.
