willhelm 85 Posted March 22, 2014 This is kind of a strange suggestion and DO NOT take this offensively. And yes i know that the current zombies are placeholders. But anyway, what i was wondering was, if we could make zombies spawn in different varieties, like fat-ish zombies (DO not confuse these with bloaters from the last of us, i'm just talking about someone relatively large becomming infected.) Anyway, these zombies wouldn't be anything stronger, i don't think atleast.. What i'd also like to see is the Military Zombies actually be stronger than the other zombies, and maybe even a chance to find some loose rounds, bandages, or guns on them (They'd obviously be damaged) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Griz2 77 Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) Who remembers the super mutant behemoth? One of my favorite bosses though I'm not sure it has a place in this game. But still, death by fire hydrant? No thanks. I think another variety came even bigger than this but I might be wrong about that. Edited March 22, 2014 by Griz2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He states that he wants "FAT ZOMBIES" bro. How is that "unrealistic stuff"??Next time, read the post... because I don't think you did. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amiasfree 262 Posted March 22, 2014 Even though zombies themselves are 'unrealistic'..Yeah I want a huge variety of zeds, fat ones too. Hopefully with their own characteristics rather than just a reskin though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TX_ 22 Posted March 22, 2014 More visual variety would always be good for immersion, as opposed to repetition that hurts it. (Realistically) tall zombies, fat zombies, you name it. Now zombie kids on the other hand.. that would cause a stir! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoffa (DayZ) 71 Posted March 22, 2014 Even though zombies themselves are 'unrealistic'..Yeah I want a huge variety of zeds, fat ones too. Hopefully with their own characteristics rather than just a reskin though. Actually, they're not if you think about it. They aren't real, but they're somewhat plausible. There is a variety of parasites and diseases that cause behavioral changes. Like rabies for example (also, note that zombies in game are not undead, they are infected with a virus that causes rage). Rabies is spread through bites and scratches (sounds familiar?) most usually, and can cause different symptoms. Now think of the infection as a slightly mutated rabies virus which doesn't kill the infected a few days after the symptoms appear, and causes massive amount of rage. Rage increases adrenaline which could actually push infected to run faster/longer, jump higher and so on. Not by much, but a little. When you think about it that way, it's not impossible.And that very constant adrenaline rush is why I think zombies should be easy to model - slightly faster, slightly physically stronger than healthy humans, One shot to the head or heart kills them, they can take a few more shots anywhere else in the body than a healthy human and still go on (not alot more, just a couple of shots). Case closed. Simple, and you get the most possible zombies ever in any game or movie. Along with the idea of variety ofp hysical characteristics of infected people.

Hopefully with their own characteristics rather than just a reskin though.While the "dead" kind are unrealistic - DayZ is a "take" on an infection that turns people into mindless killers. So, while it most likely would never ever happen... ever - there is always a slight possibility that some virus could eventually develop that affects the brain in a way that would turn a person into a psychopathic killer that wants to rip a person to shreds. Is it airborne? What is the virus transmission method? Are we, the survivors immune, which is why we are so few? If we are immune, there needs to be millions of zombies.
