 This one and DayB seem to be related in many ways , lol.  

 Most the SP daiZy mods have issues with AI spawns.  Even my favorite ones :
 Olive's Wasteland 1987 and DoS , the two I found minus any zombies ... AI can sometimes spawn right on top of you.  
 
 I have to agree with rachel in many ways ... Cherno is over-used and way over-done.
 Not only was almost all DayZ on Cherno map, also Wasteland ( the PvP type) , Warfare , and other popular game modes were all on Chernarus map.  Even Standalone had adopted the Cherno map , despite it's additions/changes ...
 It's BORING!   Like used/seen too much.

But , at the same time ... I know why it's used in most daizy mods ... loot drops on buildingcode positions are difficult to change for other maps.

 Weather ... I've never really been a fan of arma2's weather systems.  I hate the rain in DayZ ... compared to standalone or Arma3 rain which seems realistic , arma2's rain is just an FPS eater, and tends to make visuals bad at the times you need it to the least.
  Realistically speaking ... The only problem in real life survival in getting cold , is hypothermia.  Cold itself doesn't give you an infection , in fact in cold climates you are less prone to getting a virus or infection.
  I'm not sure why "survival games" usually include an infection based on natural events... because it hardly ever makes sense.  

 Drinking from polluted water-sources ... I can see giving an infection.  
However ... I've yet to find any DayZ wells, offer a "test" to see if water is contaminated or not.  
 It's always taking a gamble , unless you get a boil water option ... with DayZ's really crappy unrealistic food/water consumption ... chances are your going to get an infection, more than the chance of getting shot or eaten by zombies... if you don't find enough sodas that is.

 I like elements that enhance the play , not be intrusive ... if you understand what I mean.

 Over-all ... DayZ X and DayB are good mods, alot of work went into them.   I think ... it kind of went over-board with content in many ways.  
  There's less feeling of isolation ... and the AI spawns, choppers and patrols , are actually more re-mindful of the public server KOS , where everyone is your enemy ... and so very few allies to aid you.
