The threat of travelling on foot and enemy types

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if there's been any discussion about this (didn't find anything with a quick search), but as it stands, travelling on foot feels too safe. When ever you find a town/city, that's when your problems start. I think it should be somewhat opposite to that. And yes, i know, where there's people, there's zombies, but the thing is that finding buildings should feel like finding shelter.

 

Wich brings me to the next idea; enemy types.

 

Zombies are extremely easy to kill out on the open, and they pose very little threat to you. When you are travelling in the deep woods of Chernarus, you should counter some harder enemies, something like zombie bears perhaps, wich are a lot faster and more durable than human zombies (wow. that sounded weird), also impossible to kill with fists. They should also be huge in size to make them even more scary.

 

It could be extremely rare to encounter them, but the sheer knowledge of the existence of them makes it very scary to travel in the woods.

 

It would also propably make people to more likely team up with strangers so they don't have to travel alone.

Do you remember this scene?

We can use the same principle with rats.

Imagine yourself runing away from hordes of theese animals,sweeping clean everything in front of them.
