The success of DayZ mod still astonishes me, there are idk maybe 60 DayZ servers constantly full with 50 players. So you got maybe 3,000-5,000 players playing simultaneously. The arma2 map is gigantic, and we all know is full of potential. My suggestion is, if technically possible: wouldn't it be great to have all of the dayZ players on the same server? 50 players is nice, but its very scattered, considering the map is 250km². The only times I encountered other survivors was in the big cities. If we could have thousands of players at the same time, I'm sure you would be more cautious even when walking in the countryside.
