Dead Players Become Zombies

[Danielvandijk 2]

Hello everyone!

Here's just a Suggestion/Idea i had a short time ago:

I'd like to see implemented in DayZ Players when killed by Zombies actually become zombies at some point, i mean like, How did the "Zombies" actually become zombies? Becouse other infected passed the virus to them!

What it would bring to DayZ:

*A more realistic Zombie Mod.

*A new tipe of roaming Player Zombie.

How it possibly could/would work:

*Note*: The player would not be able to control the Zombie "Version" of himself.

*A player gets killed by a zombies or a horde of zombies, the zombies start "Eating" him as he screams for help or just in general Screams.. the player would obviously die after a while (If not helped, etc.) after he dies there would be a set time for the virus to spread into his body, (Example : 15 min) after that the body would start to twitch and get back up (the loot on the body remains on the zombie) after that he would become another living dead in the DayZ world.

Conclusion:

*A more realistic player death system (by being killed by zombies).

*Not a really hard thing to code in General (Having experience in Game Development Myself)

I Hope you guys like the idea, if you wish to give your opinion on what could be better or change fell free to do so!

Thanks!

Watch 28 days/weeks later, that is what this virus is.

Zombies in Day Z are not undead.

This would be very hard to do considdering the fact that zombies despawn when there are no players in the area, so the dead person and the loot would dissapear.

But i like the idea and im sure the despawning problem could be solved really easy.

Been suggested 1000 times before, use the search function. Not hard.

Terrible idea, no matter how many times it has been suggested.

Suggested this earlier as well and also spawn dead bodies that could be either zombies that come to life when checked and might have high value loot.

the virus just mutated into something that revives the dead people, YOUR LOGIC FAILS
