    I've played Arma 2 for quite a bit and I fully realize that there is no 'melee attack' in the game. It's not something that really is an issue in Arma games. However, I have noticed that zombies perform some sort of "melee attack". I'm curious, how is that achieved with zombies, obviously with some sort of "hack" to the system and why can't this be applied to players? The ability to fight one or two zombies, when out of ammo and/or trying not to alert a horde, would be extremely useful. Of course, the risk of serious injury in attempting such a thing would make the use of this ability in dire circumstances only. Any ideas about this?

    Curious about zombie melee attacks.

    How would you animate it? I'm assuming you could give it infinite ammo, or perhaps tie it to how tired/scared you are?

    Finally a reason for humanity

    Why is survival a 'bad deed'? In a zombie apocalypse, there would be no consequences to such actions. Injecting morality in the game makes little sense. If you don't like the thought of getting killed, by either players or zombies, then don't play. I find it rather annoying that people keep wanting to force their sense of fair play and values on others by crippling those who wish to play to survive. In the end, it's about the beans. Working with others certainly can increase your odds of survival, assuming your friends aren't dumb asses.

    So basically, we need a "machete gun" that has a range of say 1 m and takes up a weapon slot? You'd have to keep it somewhere, replacing primary weapon perhaps?

    Bandit/Survivor Morphing to be removed

    SkepticJerry replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info

    This is good news. I don't see how it's useful at all. Seeing how killing in self defense will give you a 'bandit' skin, there's no telling who are really bandits and who are not. Certainly not a basis to trust or distrust someone.
