    Flippers. Nothing too fancy, just another item for the toolbelt. Having them in your inventory gives a passive 100% boost to swim speed. Thoughts?

    You know what's weird? When I first started Dayz I noticed the item loss in water immediately. About a week ago I must have spent a cumulative 90 minutes swimming to and from Skalisty Island. Didn't lose a single item. So is item loss still possible or did I just get really lucky? At any rate, you're correct. It really doesn't add a whole lot to the game. The main practical use for them would ultimately be faster travel to the islands. But I figure it may be relatively easy to code into the game. And if it IS something fairly simple to implement, it just gives a couple more options for players without access to boats or helicopters. As for current swim speed, I'm actually okay with it. I figure if I'm strapped with a backpack, possibly a few weapons, and other miscellaneous items (*EDIT* and swimming fully clothed? Have YOU ever tried that?) then I'm not going to be the speediest swimmer. Hence, flippers.
