Most of what you said is right, but ultimately, the point of dayz is just to have fun. There is no end game, no purpose, nothing. You can't get too attached to your character or your gear because you're probably going to lose it when you're walking across the country side. I'm surprised by the game's mass explosion of popularity because it's not a game for the masses at all.
That said, I'd love to see zombies become the number one threat. I'd love for people to not instantly murder each other because they're both so desperate to live that they need each other. I'd like to have some kind of impossible, but still existent, end-game like assemble parts to a boat and sail away to an island. If you make it your character is retired and entered on a hall of fame on their website/ingame.
It's not really a zombie/survival game now. It's just a PvP game with some zombies thrown in. The PvP isn't necessarily good either. It's usually who gets the jump on who will win. I've never fired upon someone to die to them, and I've only once been able to kill someone who shot at me first.
All-In has like 7 guys playing DayZ right now and is being streamed at <a href="http://www.twitch.tv/rwryne" target="_blank">http://www.twitch.tv/rwryne</a>
Have played a lot recently but I'll take a break until it's a little more stable. My game experience gets more ruined every time I play with lost items and unannounced server restarts. The last two times that's happened I lost a silenced automatic rifle + 1 ammo clip; and the second time an M4A2 + M24 & lots of ammo + Ghille suit and more.
