Greetings, my name is OfficerJenkins and I have a suggestion related to infected hordes.
I believe Dayz can be improved with local Infected horde events, similar to a helicopter crash, or a gas attack.
Heres an example of how it could work:
- An Infected Horde would consist of anywhere between 20 - 40 random infected, locally spawned and all roaming in the same direction.
- A survivor can deal with the horde with a new feature added in the Horde update; a dead infected can be cut open and its guts can be used to blend in with zombies. (This only applies to infected guts)
- Smearing infected guts on yourself could raise your chance of getting sick by 50%, adding a risk element to blending in.
- The Horde event ends when enough zombies are killed, or they reach the outside of the local event zone, after which they will scatter like normal infected.
I believe more features are needed to make this work, but this would add another element to the game and an update of this caliber may even draw in more players to the community.
