Animals

-The game does have wildlife in it.
-There are deer and wolves in the game. Wolves hunt deer and zombies actually attack deer and wolves in addition to the player.

Day and Night Cycle

The day and night cycle is pretty neat but nothing new when it comes to the genre. During the day it's bright but at night it's pitch black on a moonless night.

Fire

The stream actually showed off something quite amusing. One of the players was set on fire with a torch, displaying some impressive fire mechanics.

Vehicles

The stream showed off the Jeep which has been showed in many screenshots. The Jeep seems to handle well on and off road, though until we go hands-on, it is difficult to ascertain just how well it handles.
