Hey Oliv82 :)
Just on the loot: the thing I like in particular is that its so varied and loot is where you'd expect it to be, in a logical place.
I haven't noticed any problems with temperature but staying below 36 degrees for a few minutes made me sick, for example: I spawned above Berezino, near a shipwreck (not the destroyer). I ran 200 meters down the coast and found the PBX. I drove this down the coast and stopped among the "finger" docks in the Berezino dockyards, was briefly in the water and once ashore I ran to the 3 Warehouse buildings on that dock - I was coughing and had half thirst/food remaining. Most of the time as a "Bambi" you are running to avoid zombies, AI or trying to gear up and survive - even running around in the rain is fine as long as you keep moving. It could perhaps use a timer so that only after a sustained period (10 minutes?) of low temperature would the player become sick.
At the moment in my current game I'm 4 or so hours in; I've survived the huge journey to Cherno and things are looking up. But it's due in part to luck; finding water bottles, an axe and matches and knowing the water pump locations to refill and purify water. It makes for a tense survival experience - which is what it's all about really. While I appreciate I am running everywhere but I would like to either modify the water consumption rate to something similar to that of food which seems (to me) to be spot on.

On another note;
1. I think blood bagging is bugged? I tested my blood, B+. I had a transfusion kit and a B+ blood bag but using it resulted in death - but, my blood
did go up and the message was displayed that I feel better now. I have the save game I made just before attempting this if it helps.
EDIT: Found another testing kit, gave me a different result from the first but using the correct BB still end in death.
2. I'm getting an error or something being displayed on occasions, something like "_CanBP: (False)"
3. What version of Arma 2 / Beta patch are you using?
4. Came across a friendly AI; love that I could actually talk to him and he'd talk back!!

Problem is he's goddamn shooting at every goddamn thing and won't goddamn stop. Until I shot him in the head, that is. Any way we can command them to "hold fire"?
5. Is the restriction of not being able to eat/drink whilst in a vehicle yours or just part of the game?
