dayZ - When you die you become a zombie?

First of all I can't see the 'search bar' which is annoying. But I was thinking earlier whether you could have the CHOICE when you died to come back as a zombie and hunt other players down. Just a suggestion, I know there will be a lot of negative feedback to this. Don't bother to troll too hard.

It's been suggested before and as I recall didn't go well, it's a nightmare amount of work for the mod team for a cheap trolling gimmick.

I mean think about it, this apocalypse is an infection...so your not coming back to life. And the only time you'd want to be a zombie is if a player killed you....and that means a bullet killed you, so you weren't infected by any bites or anything so you wouldn't become a zombie would you?

And if your eaten by a horde of zombies...as I said infection so you'd be nothing more then a dead half eaten body incapable of functioning.

Fair enough. I guess this game is realistic enough that you won't become infected by a bullet, perhaps you would if just one zombie came and attacked you. But I've only played for a few hours so I'm not sure what this game really needs.
