Why do the Zombies run? ZOMBIES SHOULD NOT RUN AT ALL!!! c.c

[SoulHunter (DayZ) 233]

I dont desire to sound like a retart, but how come can zombies run this fast? Is it really THAT HARD to make them unable to run? Again, I dont wanna seem like a fanboy of WarZ at all, but the zombie-system of that game-wannabe is far better than the zombies we have in dayz mod (<- that saying im aware of this is still a mod :P), which makes me really think why they did not change those runner a bit anyway? Is it really that hard to change the movements of them? If its so, then mkay.. ^w^"

They are infected (think 28 days later rather than Romero zombies)

Step into a building they are scared to run inside those.

Problem solved.

Zombies that dont run are no threat unless your a retart ;)

[colekern 1364]

They're supposed to be the running type, otherwise you could literally completely ignore them.

well, not literally really ^^" in walking dead, yeah many ppl ignore zombies, which doesnt mean they are not rly threat to them in general LoL :D

Yea walking dead seems to have taken a turn of over the top drama with like 3 mins of zombie footage per episode. But on topic I like the zombies faster sometimes I get pissed when they are persistent out in the woods but I usually just step into a pine tree.

They are not reanimated corpses, they are living people driven mad by a virus that makes you crave flesh. Like bath salts.

yeh lol im aware of it, but still its not rly like it exactly sounds like.. those people are DEAD, which says they do not tend to think, other than of eating something time to time and thats all, they do not sleep, they do not drink, they do not feel pain.. as all of us know from the last episode of the walking dead;

they can still act like nothing has happened them even though they have been burned out for about 8-10 hours...

:P They see very bad, hear very very bad ... all they can do well is smelling, which should not be enough of being able to run like they were capable of doing it before! running requires some coordination of eyes and ears as well... they should not even be able to walk properly, considering it would be hard to ballast without having a working ballast system in their ears and so on....

I know I cannot expect perfect realism from a game in the first place, which is not what I want anyway.. Just running that fast.. As a zombie... OMFG .. :'D

... they are living people driven mad by a virus ...

btw thats wrong information.. in the series you got the virus and you just do not change unless you die... there is a similar logic also in kinda games, as being able to keep being a human after getting hit by a zombie dozens of time tho :P

He's talking about the game.

The NPCs are infected humans, not reanimated dead - they are affected by a virus, the survivors (us) are immune to the virus which is why we aren't trying to eat people.

Have you ever thought why the name of those famous series being "The Walking Dead" but not "The Running Dead" ? Ya kno y ? cuz peez have never thought zombies even can be mentioned with the word of "RUNNING"!

No, you don't "get" me. Don't tell me I can't communicate. You're the one saying "ballast" instead of balance.

English. Do you speak it.

Why do you keep referencing The Walking Dead?

This game has nothing to do with that shite series at all. As has been pointed out to you numerous times already they are NOT zombies.

I've not said anything about your grammar, now get to on-topic, or just simply get off.

Then why the hell does everyone on youtube and on such places just call them simply "zombie" ?
