Zedertone 378 Posted November 18, 2013 Hello everyone. :3 Decided to start a new topic just to chat, considering I haven't in a while. I'd like to just ask people's thoughts on the Standalone? I saw Dean's recent video, and unfortunately, didn't like it :(It looks like it will be suuuper graphic enhanced, and take a good computer to run it. Plus, running Zeds.... >_>Don't get me wrong, I LOVE DayZ, but this whole running Zeds thing, WHY... I don't get it. Kinda ruins everything I knowabout zombies, I mean the first thing you think of zombies is slow and flesh eating. :P And just by recent footage, I can't say I'm looking forward to the Standalone. :( What are you guy's thoughts? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIC 1050 Posted November 18, 2013 I don't think it'd be very fun for you to easily evade them if they were able to walk.. If it was something to pose as a threat, it would somewhat eliminate the kill on sight mentality that the majority of players currently have. In the movie like 28 days/weeks later, the "zombies" can run themselves and you can see how much of a threat that truly creates. Believe me, I prefer hard challenges over easy obstacles. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRedScare 353 Posted November 18, 2013 They aren't actually zombies they are infected. Anyway since neither infected nor zombies exist in real life people can make them whatever they want to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zedertone 378 Posted November 18, 2013 My thoughts?You've not being paying attention to anything up to this point.Well, yes.. I have, and there's no need to be that way.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rossums 2190 Posted November 18, 2013 Well, yes.. I have, and there's no need to be that way..Everything you complain about has literally been confirmed for months.Yes the graphics are better, no it's not harder to run, yes the zombies run - they also run in the mod.As the above poster said, they are infected humans - not reanimated dead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I was giving my thoughts on it, and asking for others thoughts ON the Standalone. And it doesn't really matter if it's been confirmed or not confirmed, it was my opinion on it?

applejaxc 2500 Posted November 19, 2013 It's worth any price tag. I'd give family members for DayZ SA. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly i can think of little less threatening than a shambling walking Zombie, most o the movies that feature em are comedies (well theyre funny) I actually downloaded one o the arma 3 dayz type games yesterday, and it has shambling staggering Z's, and they look kinda cool... but there is absolutely no threat from them, yah dont need to be stealthy, or kill em or anything. It kinda killed it for me(well its just released so maybe they will make em more threatening somehow. Im a fan of the fast Z's from world war Z, they were awesome! and the Zombie vampire type things of I am Legend. And i love the sprinting Z's in dayz... i dont think it would work any other way P.S. im not really a huge fan o the walking dead. all they have to do is walk quickly and theyre safe... i mean whats the danger!

I could see like having them in hordes, or swarms, where they kinda come out of no where. Or kinda like (Dare I say the name) WarZ zombies, sorta... But yeah, It probably would get boring quite fast.

GodOfGrain 191 Posted November 19, 2013 It was a very smart thing from Bohemia to release this buggy alpha video to slow the hype train. (*Rocket hitting the wall with his axe, bulletholes and bullet-sounds :D and he hits it again and again, to say: LOOK AT IT, YOU ARE BUYING A FUCKING ALPHA :D ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
