Can't get a zombie's attention?

Recommended Posts

Howdy, y'all!

 

     So, here's my problem: I made a rookie mistake and fell off some stairs inside a barn. I broke my leg, but I didn't start bleeding. I've been crawling around hor an hour, trying to find a way to kill myself, but I'm in the middle of nowhere (somewhere outside of Tulga), and I was looking for zombies, so they'd attack me, and eventually I'd die. I found a zombie, but it doesn't notice me. I guess it's because I'm prone. Is there any way to get a zombie's attention if you're leg is broken? Thanks a ton!

Punch it, it will then notice you. Maybe go to crouched first. If you have a gun and some ammo for it then fire a shot randomly into the air.

So you are crawling up to a zombie and while right in front of it, it isn't recognizing you?

 

Exactly. I was crawling around it and crawling into it, but it didn't recognize me. Eventually I just started crawling again, and some guy came and asked if I needed any help. I asked him to punch me in the head, and he did, until I went unconcious. So I'm okay, now, just got concerned about that. Is that a glitch, though? Do you think we can just crawl around zombies and not be noticed?

Likely a glitch as I've had them attack me prone on several occasions.
