Zombie Body temperature

Recommended Posts

So as i noticed you can see Zombies through thermal vision. This should be removed, they are dead so they are not really as warm as a human. So may be they would be just very slightly visible or so.

They're not dead, they are "infected", similar to 28 days later.

Nope, they are not dead. They are humans that are infected.

DayZ = Day Zero, not Day Zombie as far as I know.

I disagree and agree at the same time. since im sure some bodily functions would cease to work and the slow hobble of the zombie would create a lower body temperature. So I agree in the sense that the zombies shouldn't be so bright, but i also disagree because it takes the player skill to quickly identify a player from a zombie with the same body temp.

maybe harder, if they are surviving for long time it must be low metabolism, meaning low temperature, but when they run they heat up. Thinking in this line we can say that if they have no way to cool themselves so the heat would just build up normal, if the virus was in the brain functions maybe, this also could make a tip about their behaviour, stay in the sun to heat their blood, so could zombies be cold blooded?
