Nicolaitic 26 Posted February 19, 2013 I kinda think zombies speed should be nerfed?I mean. If you are ''dead, undead, close to death'' or anything else. How come you run so fast? I'm having a hard time escaping from zeds when they run faster than i do... It could be a idea to make them run fast in the start when they are aggroed but then get slower after time?I understand that the hunger for players may be big but come on?After a certian time they should get tired of running and making noize...

Argamore (DayZ) 110 Posted February 19, 2013 They are super hyped an can run for miles ! If you change the zombie speed then you should change the player speed also? Because you can now run infinite ?Can you understand a bit? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinkatze 52 Posted February 19, 2013 I don't really care how they work right now cause I have no expectations on them being changed in the mod, for SA they will be revamped, but doubt they will run slower. What actually is the problem is not their run speed, but their animations and glitches, which makes them a lot harder for that matter.I doubt they will ever get tired, the player is the one that should get tired, this is why you have to learn to LoS them and lose them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DirtyCry 118 Posted February 19, 2013 Change this and change that a zombie can knock you out with one hit at 12k blood. Thats really annyoing. A zombie cames from behinde, making really no sound and knocks you out. Instant dead.. you can do nothing. You are also full visible while knocked out and if you laying on the ground not knockt out you are not visible... stupid.. and major fail in a core element which is untouched till today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clumzy (DayZ) 377 Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) I'm able to outrun zombies while crouch running, all they really need to fix is the pathing. No need to nerf zombies, they're already easy to avoid anyways. Edited February 19, 2013 by Clumzy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m.w. vindicator 880 Posted February 19, 2013 I doubt they will get any slower. I like them fast anyway. Keeps the player on his/her toes. The. Problem, like others have mentioned is that their movement is glitchy and not optimized. The devs are currently workin on the zed animations as we speak. These problems will mostly likely be ironed out by SA release and the patches that follow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Target Practice (DayZ) 1335 Posted February 19, 2013 I have no problem with their speed - the only issue that really bugs me is that occasionally you get one that seems to glitch and stay stuck RIGHT behind you no matter what you do - I've watched over my shoulder as they 'rubberband' from about 10-15m behind to 5m behind in the space of about a second. I'm all for the game being challenging, and I CERTAINLY don't want to see zombies nerfed, they're barely a threat as it is, but I would at least like things to be fair.

Target Practice (DayZ) 1335 Posted February 19, 2013 I have a theory behind the strange behaviour exhibited on Chernarus recently.Zombie wizards.^ Actual in-game screenshot.Think about it - how else are these zombies walking through walls, zig-zagging at speeds that would make Albert Einstein's nose bleed and making your weapons vanish when you try to put them in your backpack? It's zombie wizards, I tell you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
