Random Zombie Attributes?

[discuit 2]

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but my google-fu didn't turn anything up, so....

 

There are a lot of threads about "make zombies faster", or "make zombies tougher" etc

 

So i was wondering, would it not be more engaging if when a zombie is spawned it was assigned a random value to say Damage, Health and Speed? That way each zombie, although they may look alike, could/would behave in a unique way?

 

Is this even possible? Or would the server load for doing this be rather intense?

It's an idea but right now they need to focus on increasing numbers while keeping the server stable. Once they get it stable and implement the new improved multi-core server architecture then they might have the ability to do this without much strain on the server.

Rocket already thought about a decay system, so that's likely to be a thing for the full release. Also, there have been some zombies, that can take a punch and other that just tumble really fast... even though I am not sure if this is intended or not.
