Is it impossible to be silent now with 1.7.1.4? I updated from 1.7.1.1, so i',m not sure which version brought this (bug?). I have BetaPatch and 1.7.1.4 installed, and was playing on Servers which statet they are running on 1.7.1.4. Last night i player for 1-2 hours on 1.7.1.1 and sneaking was fine, but now i am not able to play, because i can't move without attracting zombies around me. Sneaking makes 2 noisebars, and even crawling makes noise now! How are you supposed to get around now, or is this a bug? I surely hope so... I'm in a house right now, and can't even move around anymore, let alone escape.

i'm getting this after starting with the beta launcher now, after updating to 1.7.1.x... :( I got steam version, two sepparate folders (ArmA2 and OA). Copying the Addons-Folders worked for me too, but doesn't seem like a good solution to me. Does anyone know a way to maybe launch Combined Operations - Dayz with Betapatch alltogether?

Hi, i have no issues with everything else in the game, i really like the realism! And also: GREAT MOD, keep up the good work (and make it so i can start my own server at home)! :D BUT... 1. Zombies are to fast - If you are desperate and have to run away, they should never be able to keep up with you indefinitely. They are rotting corpses! Also, Zombies evading gunshots (by quickly runjumping left and right) seems very strange, they should come straight at you. 2. Zombies are to intelligent - Seeing you and figuring out a way to get to you through an obstacle course? That's not zombielike at all. They lock onto you and navigate through a buildung, including climbing ladders, to get to you. In my opinion they are supposed to be more mindless. In summary: Please nerf the zombies A LITTLE, see suggestions above. Thats it from me, thanks for listening. :) cheers xenomat

Then i would be very thankfull if you give some insight in how to outrun them, because i can't do it. They swim, they climb, they run forever, when i alarm just one without ammo, i'm dead. Fastest person alive? We are talking about Arma, right?

I didn't say anything about logic. It just goes against what i would expect from a zombie, which is supposed to be a reanimated, rotting corpse. What is a "real" reason? I think zombies should not be able to keep up with a human indefinitely, period. Thats what i think and it is a suggestion in a suggestion forum. The game would still be hard, even if a zombie looses interesst after following you for a while. That is only one aspect of the zombies difficulty.

No, i don't know any zombies in real life. I also set unrealistic in quotation marks. And i also know how to sprint, but you can't loose the zombies. The idea of a zombie is a mindless corpse, why would it be able to keep up with a human (alive) running forever? As i tried to explain, i have nothing against a hard game, but not being able to outrun a brainless, reanimated corpse is strange.

I can't vote, so: Yes. Bandits in real life would most likely not dress like "hey, i'm a bandit, please shoot me". And i'm saying that even though i don't like bandits very much.

Then call it buggy, incomplete AI coding or whatever... As B00tsy was saying, they are to persistent. At least you should be able to loose them after a while. @Kramartacusif If everything is like the devs imagine/want it, why are they taking suggestions?

I'm more under the impression that once they hear or see you, they lock onto you and never let go, following your every move and route through walls, ceilings, woods... I call that intelligent, or cheating. Maybe i don't know all the evasion tactics yet. If you are out of Ammo and a zombie is following, you can never get rid of him (at least i don't know how). Right now i would guess they also can drive cars and fly helicopters. :s

I don't know how i can explain it any better... :-/
