To those saying they won't play until 1.7.2 is hotfixed, or they will play on 1.7.1.5 servers until such.

This is an alpha, and for that being the case it's damn awesome. All of us are testers for this game, and the more of us playing these unstable patches and reporting errors to the Day Z staff on the forums or posting about them on Reddit, the faster they will be fixed and the more polished it will become. It's sad that people feel so entitled they get angry or sulky about what must be the most ambitious game of the past decade--which is free [don't give me crap about having to buy ARMA 2 & Operation Arrowhead, no one asked you to buy them just to play Day Z]--instead of optimistic or excited to help. If you don't like playing at times like this, do us all a favour and go back to whatever big studio commerical FPS you were playing before this.
