pharoah 6 Posted January 29, 2014 I'm loving SA - the sounds, the graphics, etc. I know its an Alpha and I can handle the lack of loot, bandits, killing on sight, cans with no can openers, etc...thats all part and parcel. What I can't stand is the ability of Z's to walk through walls!! Its like there's no wall there for them. I don't mind it when I have a fireman's axe (my fav weapon) but when unarmed in a building trying to hide....nah. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zarniwoop 1193 Posted January 29, 2014 That is something that will get fixed in time, parallel to other fixes. ;) It is not a simple issue.Also don't expect to be finding more loot as time goes by. With more items entering the game, I'd expect the good stuff to decrease. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crosa 93 Posted January 29, 2014 im sure when they have a semi stable build they will focus on rebuilding the zombies and release a patch that will just completly change zombies and makes them properly work. If they dont... I will be one sad panda... cause the whole reason I play DayZ is for the zombie apocalypse experience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andarne (DayZ) 84 Posted January 29, 2014 I think there are more urgent issues than zombies walking through walls to attend to. The desync issues, for one are my biggest annoyance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarcOwaR 29 Posted January 29, 2014 Going first person in a building with fists out enable you to look through any walls when you walk right up to them lol! This needs to be sorted big time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueleader 18 Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) my big issue is losing your man after a spawn for no real reason except poor hive connection,, after spending hours collecting bags food and clothes and managing to survive in this new loot less patch, and then poor spawn and poof all gone in an instance, what a soul destroyer.... if there is any one thing that would stop me from playing DayZ its this problem that needs fixing like yesterday ho, and of course i hate hackers,,, protection ? that needs keeping on top off Edited January 29, 2014 by blueleader Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pharoah 6 Posted January 30, 2014 So the point of this thread is? It's a very known issue. Well I certainly didn't know which is why I raised it. Also, I clicked report accidentally (why is report the first icon instead of quote????) which I tried to cancel. Hopefully it doesn't get reported! lol.

ChiefMasterKush 321 Posted January 30, 2014 yeahh.... well if you check out the patch notes it appears they are adding collision detection/pathing for zombies. Also, I believe I read somewhere that zombies only ignore stuff at close range. So it's not as bad as you may think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pharoah 6 Posted January 30, 2014 yeah because I have the firemans axe (LOVE this thing btw), I'm constantly running right up to Z's and chopping them...they don't seem to notice me if I'm running up to them from the side or behind which is weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One time my friend even got killed by a zombie 2 floors down. Something has to give. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zardoz75 22 Posted January 30, 2014 Yeah, zeds clipping through walls is the worst. Especially in a small confined area were you can't do the flank manuever on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed why do you get that feeling?Once optimizations are done we will have loads of zombies and lots of junk loot. Good stuff will be rare, even more so with the dynamic loot count that can be changed across all servers. i.e they can set the presice amount of M4s spawning all over the map across all servers. Same goes for infections etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
