The reason I have stopped playing this game as many of us have, is due to the changes making it more and more complex to play especially on console. Zombies are near impossible to run away from if alerted, and now with the introduction of infected wounds from rags makes it nearly impossible to play the game without dying from something or other. This is the dilemma of realistic gameplay, is that when things become more and more similar to real life, they become very boring and dull to play. But odd as infected wounds are extremely easy to treat in real life unless it you don't cut the infection off or burn it. And most small infections don't even kill so I fail to see any reason why this was added. People have been asking for a long time to make the game easier, not very easy but easier to play. Another thing I have noticed is the push to talk. As you cannot assign controls, it is hard to have a conversation with people in the game whilst doing basic tasks. And the vehicles. There needs to be a lot more vehicles and parts to be somewhat easier to access. This is why many people are modding the game. If you really support modding in various servers, add in features to make this easier and the community would greatly appreciate this as it will allow amazing new ideas and concepts to excel the game forward. I think if you want a super realistic gameplay, it should be added in another gamemode such as "hardcore" or "realistic". This would also encourage more new players to the game and increase the success of the game. Thanks if you actually read this lol.
