With a primary focus on slaughtering the undead, it seems that survival has always taken a back-seat in gaming. Yes it's there, but the main focus has always been on how you destroy zombies, not how you survive. It's always escaping from an outbreak, and never shedding light on how you survive after. It focuses on the most linear aspect for a problem that would become extremely open-ended as soon as you found any form of safety. Adding the element of on-going survival could easily be seen as taking away from pure entertainment value, but it seems the reality is that the community has been waiting for this type of gameplay. An MMO inspired world that zombie enthusiats everywhere can test out their hypothetical survival plans. Day Z is acting as a proving ground, and the outcome is transforming into zombie gaming heaven. Scavenge for supplies, fend off hordes of the undead and bandits, then survive for as long as you can. With the additional threat of other players it seems inevitable that fans will enjoy acting out their theoretical survival plans into effect with the perfect simulation software. Players have to survive by any means necessary, and trusting another player is a hard thing to do indeed. There are so many aspects to a zombie apocalypse, and it's surprising that it has taken this long to find developers tapping deeper into the idea of surviving in the world. Day Z is proof that survival is a difficult task indeed, with an average player life expectancy of around 49 minutes currently, and it doesn't even touch every base for what is needed to survive.
