I could see this ending badly for him or the other player.

A gun isn't a needed starting item. Mainly because it is way to easy to get away from zombies chasing you. In a village or town just run into houses closing doors after you enter them and you will lose agro on the zombies after LOS is lost and hide and stay low for a bit. In the wilderness just run behind trees to lose LOS. I can go as far to say I've lost agro on zombies because of glitches. For example I agroed about 20 zombies in the firehouse in electro and ran up the stairs and was able to click though the wall to use the ladder which instantly broke agro on the zombies. The only reason I have died recently is because other players. Don't you just love getting shot when your unarmed showing no agression?

I know how you feel. It is purely dependant on luck. Last character I played I found I revovler in the first 20 minutes of play. Unluckly the server crashed and did not save my progess so I lost it. This character I'm four hours in and I am still yet to find any weapon or really anything of use besides food.

I've played this game for about 25 hours and I have only seen one vehicle. It was a boat that zoomed past me when I spawned. I asked for a ride, but he never stopped =(. Getting back on topic it would add depth and I would like to see it, but I don't think it is really needed.

I think that you should be able to eat other players after they have been killed. I mean you can kill animals skin them and eat them when they die why not other players. Think about it you are in and death situation and if your last resort to survive is to eat someone else some may find that as a way to survive. But I think if this is implemented the said player who ate the other player should receive negative humanity or something to that effect.

Since 1.7.1.1 whenever I load into a game it creates a new character and doesn't save my previous character data. I have tried across 3 different servers to see if my character will save and it isn't. Is anyone else running into this problem?

I would, but the bug report forum require you to post some kind of proof and I haven't put together anything like a video yet to show the bug.
