I do have to agree somewhat as I too feel the frustrations with some of the changes.. I do like a few as well ie. the melee is a must have addition. However I have noticed the pick and play time when starting out again can be hours and hours of wasted frustrations.. Today I spent nearly 6-7 hours just trying to find a gun searching dozens of buildings all I end up with is hordes of zombies in tow. The melee is not effective against large numbers which makes sense but with better zombies evasion i find is near impossible. It used to be more enjoyable to pick up and play a few hours but seems that the balance is gone and I just end up wasting hours upon hours just tryin to find anything of use.. Its a great game I just hope they restore a little more balance.
