Dayz Survivor: The Beta Insight.

Survivor: The Beta Insight.

To complete the triangle of DayZ facts we finish with the survivor. There is not much you can say about the survivor since the personality is in the player itself but i did find a few interesting facts during the beta.

 #1. Survivor Wardrobe. 
Players can change clothes randomly (white long sleeve shirt to black again), After killing a player or so you have the each to wear a tea towel on your head and call yourself a bandit.

#2. Not native to the land.
Survivors First start on the beach, They have a few items (flash light, a bandage and a Coyote Patrol Pack).
-Theory: 
A) A plane crash or ship sinking forced you to swim to shore.
B) You are an escape experiment/solider that has a super serum.
C1) Phase one, Infect every human in the country with the virus, Phase two is to create and send in super troopers (survivors) that are brain washed to strip the buildings clean of weaponry, food and water and cleanse the land to reduce chance of any squatters. Phase three, a more confident army will go through and eliminate the remaining zombie population.
C2) Phase one, Infect every human in the country with the virus, Phase two is to create and send in super troopers (survivors) that are brain washed to come to this country and go and strip the buildings clean of weaponry, food and water and cleanse the land to reduce chance of any squatters. Phase three, wait until the Infected to die from lack of food and take over.

#3. Thirsty? Don't bother about swimming.  
Rain and swimming in water does not quench your thirst.

#4. Survivors do not need sleep.
Your character can run for days and not need any sleep sleep.
Theory: 
A) Survivors are in the first stage of the virus. They are infected but not to the point where they go but have signs of it.
B) The virus was original a super soldier serum that made the perfect warrior. No sleep, Always Alert, the warriors metabolism will regenerates his/her blood faster but some how it  had mutated and became airborn.
C) The military of Chernarus had tried to make their own version but made it's people infected with the rage virus.

#5A. Survivors do not need to go to bathroom.

#5B. Survivors don't pass gas.
Theory: All food and Drink are instantly absorbed into the body creating no waste. See theory theories of number four. 

#6.  Survivors don't use stitches for injures.
They instead they use bandages and heal with food.
Theory: The survivor metabolism has been enhanced to absorbing and converting it to blood and heal your wounds.

#7.  Vegetarians do not last long in DayZ.
Eating canned food only heals a small portion of your blood but eating cooked meat will heals you a lot more.

#8. If you leave the game, your character can get hungry and thirsty over time.

#9. Survivors feet never blister.
They must have really good boots or socks.

#11. Survivors clothes never wear or rip.
Wear and tear is a major thing in life, yet survivors clothes always look fresh and clean.

#12. Running for a mile can knock the wind out of any survivor.
Your character can tire out after a lot of running which will effect your aim. It is always wise to rest in safe places if you are worried about getting into a gun fight or heading into town.

#13. Survivors suffer from "resident-evil-1-to-3-itus"
To fire you must stand still but you can reload while running.

#14. When you drink or eat, every bit of food is consumed, including the packaging.
Every time I eat or drink I end up wondering where does the tin that hold the beans inside went or the coke i just drank. I never see an empty can on the floor or in my inventory.
Theories:
A) Our Survivor has a power to destroy items just like when transferring bags.
 B) I am not saying it was aliens... but it was aliens.


#15A. Survivors can not turn into a zombie.
As i said on the Zombie Insight blog, Zombies are humans that are infected by man made virus that  uses populace into a primitive and violent race and use it to turn against any survivors. Survivors do not get infected if a Zed harms him/her.
Theories

A: The survivor is immune because they have similar virus but to make a super soldier.
B: Zombie Virus is in it's final stage where it no longer infects other people so when then the zeds drop for exhaustion, then the army can take the country easily.

#15B. Survivors can get sick.
Survivors can get sick by another player (high chance), By a zombie (low chance) and being cold (low chance).
Theory:
Zombies hands and fingernails are filled with bacteria, when they harm and cause the survivor to bleed then the immunity can decrease and the bacteria can get the player sick.
