Level of Control Over Private Servers?

[Zetal 90]

How much power do private server owners have over the game? I see many servers that have custom buildings, increased vehicles, and even more zombies on occasion. How possible is it for them to change, for example, how hard zombies hit, or how quickly they attack/run?

IF this is possible, are there any servers that make zombies actually difficult?

Thanks!

It's very possible. I was on a server the other night that the zombies were one hit knocking you out then eating and killing you. everyone died. lol

That only affects player options, not Zombies.

@maxnmike

Really?? Do you remember the server name? I'd love to play on that.

Bump...This would really improve me and my friends experience with DayZ. If anyone knows of a server like this, please tell us!
