DayZ Standalone - Infected Movement

[maninthewall 470]

Would you like the zombies in Standalone to instead of trying to dodge shots and flank you, just run straight up to you like brainless zombies?

I just find it so annoying when you try to line up a headhost and then they suddenly change direction. First person is very hard in DayZ.

Running straight to their foe. They don't even know what a gun is, how would they know how to dodge bullets ?

this has already been implemented into the standalone. no need to bring it up

They should run straight, but faster, so you have minimal time to turn around and shoot them.

Because DayZ mod zombies are just scripted AI soldiers. :)

However Rocket has already said that the AI in the standalone will be zombies and not AI soldiers pretending to be zombies. I'd love it the zombies had random flailing animations, falling and tripping, while they raging launched towards the living.

Hello there

Unfortunately this has already been somewhat dealt with for the SA.

IMHO it does need to be tackled in the MOD though.

Hmm, this 'flailing' idea brings me to the idea of missing limbs? How cool would it be if the crawling zombies were crawling because it was missing 1 or possibly both of it's legs. Or imagine a zombie running towards you flinging it's one and only arm around in the air.

Maybe a bit violent or extreme for dayz, but still an idea.

2 things:

1. I edited the title to give clarity.

2. I'd like to see animated limbs. Not realistic. But fun.
