Hey, I really think the developers of DayZ need to put a starting weapon back in, even if its just melee, ANYTHING! I have spent like hours running from zombies, especially if its day, it seems like (I'm fair sure) that zombies spot you easlier during the day (sorry if that sounds noobish) so i cant even get to a warehouse or anything, I even prone and 10-20 metres away they spot me and because the character gets up so slowly, I get hit! This is soooo annoying, I can't do jack with out any means to protect myself. and please don't comment things like 'run up a hill, or go into water' I know how to escape them but the zombies see me too easily and I cant kill them! Please change I'm just asking for a simple means of defense.
