Why do zombies spawn out of thin air (experimental)

[infiltrator 275]

I know you guys are trying to add respawning zombies, but just randomly spawning zombies around people doesn't help anyone. I've literally stood on the airfield, in the bushes, and dettered waves and waves of zombies one after another, all of them spawning randomly, some in plain sight. This is absurd to say the least and doesn't help us test the game nor you to figure out what to do next.

Try not to fire a weapon if you don't want to see the swarm of Z's...it's that simple.

I think it is part of a plan to keep losers from sitting in the same spot for hours so they can camp high traffic areas.

Honestly.. adding in broken spawning zombies is worse than the somewhat non-existent zombies we had before. 

 

Please roll back the zombies.. stop with the PLACEHOLDER stuff.

 

Its pointless to try to feed the masses while your still making the dinner.. please focus on cooking. Thank you

They stated this is a first test of the respawn mechanic, not the ultimate one. I'd wait to complain about this if i were you.

[Disgraced 1123]

Same engine as the mod, same problems.

Welcome to dayz.

It is the early stage of zombie respawning. It is super simple now, (you make noise and more spawn) but eventually it will be more complex.

Exactly that, they'll fix it bro. Just chill and enjoy the hardcore

Why wait to complain?

 

The game is supposed to revolve around zombies. They put in a placeholder code for respawning them while they are still broken in every way.. just to what, add more broken zombies? I really do not need a zombie spawning on me out of nowhere.. no shots, not a single sound or movement, sitting still inside a house checking my loot.. insta aggro.. then I head upstairs since you know walls mean nothing to zombies, and the bastard hits me through the floor repeatedly.

 

This scenario is amazing if the damn zombies were following any kind of code. But what we have is Hacker Zombies essentially.

 

They have ESP, wall hack, and invisibility.. you want to NOT complain about that?

lets get real here

 

whats the thing that you are when you play this game????

 

oh, thats right, you are a tester, not a player

 

get over yourself dude, and if you dont like it right now, take a break

[Gank Moody 12]

So funny people complain that there isn't enough zombies then people complain that there are too many. No pleasing anyone, just play the game and quit crying....

Hence he is providing feedback on the feature he tested.

 

Seriously whats wrong with people like you. Brb alpha tester but not allowed to give feedback on alpha that you are testing because it is a alpha that is being tested?????

[Irish. 4886]

Am I not entitled to an opinion because you do not agree? 

 

Yes, I play this game. Does that make me a tester? No, because I am not being paid to test. I play. I understand its an alpha, and I am okay with those consequences. But when the devs add in a PLACEHOLDER feature that is useless, and really only seems to function as a way to appeal to those who keep saying there are no zombies in this game, well then I am going to stand up and express my right to voice my opinion as a consumer who purchased their product.

 

You cannot just keep standing behind the "its an alpha" blanket. WE ALL GET IT. But it does NOT mean we all have to just shut the fuck up and deal with it.. we have a right to state what we want to see, and there is a reason for doing that since the devs themselves have stated repeatedly that they turn to the internet to see how the community feels. 

 

Just keeping your mouth shut and "being happy with the alpha" is not even part of being a tester if thats the road you want to take. Being a tester means putting in your opinions and input on the game. Which is exactly what I am doing.

you think thats feedback?

 

all hes doing is complaining

 

if he knew anything about this game he would know that dean wants zombies to spawn out of sight

[pillerking@yahoo.com 72]

it would be awesome if they would crawl out of the ground instead of spawning standing up.

You wanted challenge on zombies, well, now they spawn. Deal with it. Also, this is on experimental branch, which is not unstable and you should not whine about features on the experimental branch of an alpha. GO BY MY LOGIC I TELL YOU! NEAUGGHH

Some of the zombies are as blind as a bat...others see you clear across town and come running but one thing is for certain.....fire a weapon you opened the door for more.  And I don't care if they fall out of the sky on respawn, it's a good upgrade to the alpha to limit rambo firin' fools. I give it a 8 out of 10.

[antonioajc 500]

So funny that you only have 10 posts and needed to add this in as one of them... 

 

thanks for your additions to our forum! :)

 

Also, did you ever think that maybe one group said MORE ZOMBIES.. while this OTHER group is saying WTF DID YOU DO?

 

Or are all people just the same people as one giant blob of humanity? 

Well, what ever the developers do, they're going to satisfy a percent of the community, not all of them.

[Irish. 4886]

I like Tuhtles.

You mean whining about a feature that just got implemented?  That's what the fucking testing is for, to test not whine and bitch.  It's called a placeholder for a reason.  Some people's children,

[OrLoK 16185]

Relax, some of you are getting "your jimmies" far too "rustled"

 

If someone "disrespects" you. Report them dont post at them

 

Carry on.

 

Im watching.

Poorly written feedback is worse than no feedback.

Thats what i said before all the time :P Implementing half done respawning systems to calm down the cries of the masses doenst give a benefit for anyone.
