I think the last stand dead zone does need perma-death. And instead of getting A certain amount of materials, we have to go to location's to find our survivor's, some better than other's, But if our survivor die's, He's dead. But if you do not want to play perma-death you can just play A non-perma-death server that is just like the game right now and instead of searching location's for survivor they just come to you like they do right now. And also sorry for the sloppy writing or as I feel is sloppy.
I don't like this idea. I think the game is fine how it is, but when your person get killed you shouldn't be able to use them for a period of time, say a day or so.
