Commentary: Loosely inspired by my experiences throughout both versions of Day Z (Arma 2 mod to the alpha release of Standalone.) While the zombies in standalone aren't nearly as “lethal” as the ones in the mod, they are slowly catching up as far as raw killing power is concerned. As for other survivors.. The Day Z community as a whole has transitioned from about a 50-50 mix of “neutral survivors” to bandits, with variations between the two commonplace from server to server. Now, on both the mod and standalone, people are more apt to kill / extort / haze / threaten you as they take notice of your menial existence, with banditry having risen to what I would presume to be about 95%, if not more. Though, I do remember a time when a group of complete strangers could come together after saying “I'm friendly” to one another, forming a tight-knit and reliable group of survivors to persevere in post apocalyptic Chernarus. As of the present day, the only people you trust are those willing to talk to you, and not stick a shiv in your back in the first five minutes of contact. Be careful out there.. there be all sorts of terrible people on Day Z, but occasionally, you'll find a hero among the masses...
