It has been confirmed that there will be no "safe zones" in the map, it will be a fight for survival from the moment you spawn.
The developers have noted that during the games production they researched the real life island of Poveglia (see Lore) in the Venetian lagoon extensively which was used as a plague colony in the 18 th century and have stated that this factors into the lore of the game. It is rumoured that the island shown in the northern lake on the map is the developers version of Poveglia and will be the site of the initial H1Z1 outbreak.
SOE plans to have a large map area by the time the Early Access Alpha is available and will be adding large expanses of area as time passes (whilst in development it has been noted by Matt Broome Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) on a podcast that the current development map is increasing by approximately 10% each week). New areas can be added very quickly, and as the map increase so will the amount of players that the map can hold. While they have not stated a final size they hope to have on release, it has been said there will not be loading screens as you travel to different areas, this also includes player housing and compounds which the developers have decided not to individually instance meaning they are open to anyone who can find a way in. Eventually, the map can achieve the full size of America.
