Zombies should one hit kill

[Cpt. Foo 9]

I got this idea few minutes ago:

Let zombies kill with one hit. This should keep everybody on low profile.

Only problem: zombie ai is not good enough. They should not have super senses and all those buggy things they do now (like hitting through walls). But they have to be at the fields and in the woods too.

What do you think?

[Robert Shannon 27]

Not a one kit kill.

[DannyRed 32]

no

way

in

hell

There are better ways to keep people on low profile than making zombies cheap.

Geez man, one hit kill zombies? You sure?

I've got another idea, why not make food cans unuseable until a can opener is found. You can even make them spawn once per server.

I heartily veto this suggestion.

[joaby 25]

That'd be pretty rough dude. Even without weird AI stuff, that'd still be super bloody rough. I'd play it, but it'd make towns almost worthless as a solo player.

[DAS1337 20]

No lol..

Even if zombie AI was perfected. No.

Can opener should be a tool that you need, and super common. Cool idea.

i kinda like the idea, might be not onshot but 3-4 hit to kill would be fine.

that kind of zombie should be rare, big and slow. dressed in military uniform(what is left of it) and carry an ammo box with military grade ammo(fn fal mags :D) sort of like these guys

[wo0kie (DayZ) 16]

Not going to happen.

Boo this man.

Definite no. Would make them extremely unbalanced.

Although, would give people something to focus on other than eachother. >_>

:P

[Soldier of Failure 14]

Zombies already one hit kill very rarely (break legs, knock you out) and its painful

This idea = Nope.avi

[7-75 callaghan 43]

No, no aaaaand, no.

[americanman1243@yahoo.com 1]

Zombies sometimes do one hit kill.

Let's stop saying "No" and just let this thread die, please.

[cherocha 4]

How about no.

[Kurmuh 6]

The way it is now is good. It's already hard enough to get a starting weapon without having to worry about dying in one hit by an aggro'd zed. They do enough damage to make you think twice about alerting them.

[Niemand (DayZ) 12]

Why the fuck does a bad idea like this get more attention then my good ones? :O

[Combine (DayZ) 247]

Apart from gameplay reasons, it does not make sense anyway.

Zombies are still, in some way, human beings, just infected with some disease that turns them into mindless animals on a rampage. Sure, they may be able to sprint and take some damage, but it's not like they grew Katanas on their hands, eh?

So ... no!

[alexander_q 6]

Instead, have zombies attempt to overpower and bite you. With high stamina, you can scape their grip and maybe even kill one. With low stamina, or with overwhelming zombie numbers, you're screwed.

I just got one hit killed by a Zombie. I've been just lurking for a while because I haven't had anything to add, but once this happened I had to come see if it was a glitch or known issue. I REALLY hope this isn't a new "feature." I was at 9900 blood, agro'd a few zombies (being careless) and decided to fight my way out. One came up behind me and I was dead instantly. Not knocked out, but dead. I'm still operating under the assumption that this was a glitch. I let some come after me after I respawned, and everything went as expected.

Hmmm. What is my definition of insanity? One hit kill zombies.

How about we make nuclear weapons available? That would be fun...for a minute or two. Nice ARMA graphics...

And while rockets at it lets be blinded by the sun until you find glasses that spawn inside all of the non-enterable buildings.
