You play zombie for a day when you die.

Would be very nice if you were obligated to play as a Zombie whenever you get killed. Like for a day or something like that!

Suggested before. Answer has always been the same. We're not infected. The zeds can only kill us, not transfer the disease they have.

 

We're immune.

We're immune.

That is why we are still alive

I'm sure you are right. 

 

But if the devs claim to know this, I would love to see some lore, too :C

In that case, I'd like to see a server type where you only have one life, and you have to survive for 28 ingame hours. Whoever does this first "wins" and the server resets and allow dead people in again.

It would become repetitive and boring, what if you don't find any other players? You would just have the instruction of running around looking for other survivors, only to be shot down near instantly.

Source for the "we're not infected" thing?

 

I'd prefer it this way;

 

Upon your death, you always resurrect as a zombie. However, instead of an imposed time-limit before you can come back as another person, the respawn option is always visible.

 

That way you can play as a zombie, go around towns eating the survivors, or return to survivor gameplay if it gets too dull.
