Dead players eventually become lootable zombies
professorofdarkness replied to professorofdarkness's topic in Suggestions
Jeez, alright already. I didn't know the zombies were just infected people. Forget I said anything. -
Someone has probably made this suggestion already, but I'll just throw it out there anyway. I think it'd be awesome if dead players rose as zombies after a certain amount of time. They could either roam the area where the player died or perhaps they could be added to a spawn list of "unique" zombies that show up all over Chernarus. Other players could then run into these zombies and kill them for their stuff. This would add a great deal of variety and realism to the zed population, and create the opportunity for more meaningful (and profitable) zombie encounters. These encounters would also present more of a challenge to the player if the zombie is particularly well equipped with helmets, assault vests, etc. I'm sure this will be a challenge to implement but I believe it would be well worth it, and at the very least is worth considering.
