    Death - What happens when you die?

    Ok, so we know that there will be separate areas for Player vs Player (Dark Zones) and Player vs Environment (Everywhere else..), but what happens when you die in the relative areas? CAN you die in the areas?!

    When fighting in the Dark Zones, you can only 'capture' your new weapons / loot, if you manage to extract, having survived the 90-second countdown. However, if you are killed BEFORE this, what happens? Do you respawn in a triage centre within the Dark Zone? Do you get airlifted out and respawn in the hospital within the safe zone?

    The same goes for the 'Safe Zone'.. Do you respawn at a triage centre / checkpoint? Do you have to start all over again? What happens to your items when you die in the 'Safe Zone'?

    Also, does it 'cost' anything to die? and what happens to your items / money?

    I've been thinking, if our character is classless, some players may wanna play as some kind of medic, and maybe aquire if possible some equipment that might revive or cure somehow your teammate(s), but if you actually die, die! I dont know what is going to happen.

    This won't happen. They've said repeatedly that it's an RPG, and not a survival game like DayZ.

    Oh hell no, son. Making it a full loot/loss game would make it a niche game. The majority of players don't like losing every thing when they die.

    I'd like to clear this up by saying, when you get loot from exploring the city and such, you don't actually own any of those items until you extract with them. So yes, if your waiting for extraction and you get killed by other players, you will lose everything you've picked up since the last time you entered the city.
