    To make WarZ more realistic, I thought we could make a new system based around the weather and environment on WarZ.

    Examples for zones on the map:

    Desert: If a player wanders in the desert for too long, then their thirst level lowers faster than if they were at a cooler environment, like Gas.

    Nether: If a player progresses towards the volcano, then they have a high chance of catching on fire. Sitting inside/near the volcano for a very long period (25+ minutes) would cause the player to explode into flames, either dying or losing health rapidly until they find a place to cool off.

    Indust: If a player stays in the Swamp environment (Indust, Castle, Dig Site) then it gets harder for them to breathe, since it's humid. However, Dig Site would provide some advantage as the soil is rich.

    Snow: If a player lingers here for a while, they have a chance of being frozen (slowed down majorly). This would make flint and steel a useful item, as a player could make a fire and stand near it to warm up.

    Oxygen Tank
    Players could find these to breathe easier in humid and hot environments. They would be rare, but popular enough for people to get them in a loot or two.

    Fire Starter (Flint and Steel)
    Self explanatory.

    CamelBak
    A canteen backpack. Players could right click this to equip it and it would provide hydration until it is fully empty (lowers faster in hot environments). They could refill it with water from any location, but have a small chance of becoming infected as there might be bacteria in some of the water. Rare, could be found in 3-5 loots.

    I might add more to this later, just wanted to post the main point of the idea.

    I really like this idea. I feel as though it will add some variety and make WarZ less stale. However, I think that that the effects will be lessened. This would encourage people to hop servers more often so that if there was a fight they would be the second team on, and thus less likely to be burdened by these disadvantages. Nevertheless, I really like this idea, and with someone tweeking I think it would be very interesting. We could also have a specific server dedicated to having extreme whether conditions, which could appeal more to the PvE population, and ulitmately grow the playerbase.

    Very good idea @Ekali .
    I think if they do accept this idea, they might change some things so its less hard, but in general this suggestion is very amazing.
    I might not have words of wisdom, but keep up the work.

    I love this idea, but I agree with Riley. But, I believe that the solution is not in lessening these effects, but instead having it carry out between logs. So, if you spend 10 minutes in snow, and then you log for five minutes and get back on for another 15, you become frozen.

    Good idea but i think it would need its only server because some players would get annoyed but it would probably bring more players to the server.

    Its a great idea, but I think it would have to be less potent versions of the effects so that it is a handicap to the playing field, but it still isn't your biggest priority through out the game. (Which I don't think you were trying to do regardless)
