Maybe rewrite Zombie AI... because it's poo.

[Yuval 221]

Yeah! I was bleeding, searched for a shirt for like 10 minutes, luckily found a bandana when barely seeing anything!

 

But then, when I wanted apply the rags on me I couldn't get rid of the zombies. Why? Because the pickaxe (In reality would do MUCH more damage than the axe, since it got a POINTED edge) couldn't kill them, but that's not the problem.

 

I coudln't lose them! I was in a city where I should lose the LOS while zigzaging buildings but guess what? They just go through buildings! Imagine me, zigzaging to death while zombies literally put their wallhacks on going through buildings.

 

I prefer the mod's AI really.

They can also beat you while they run! Like come on that's a total OP!!!

 

Yeah, Don't post any hate comments saying 'you are a noob' or 'learn to handle zombies' because you must be better than me at losing zombies, so what? Does it mean it should be hardcore?

I bought this game and I am not so good at dodging and losing zombies, and I'm sure 60 percents of the players can't.

 

I just want to point out advantages and disadvantages over zombies in here -

 

Zombies do a respected amount of damage.

Zombies can hit you while you're sprinting.

Zombies spawn between 50 to 200m from you right when you kill another zombie.

Zombies can see you through walls (means no way losing them inside cities, because the more you try, the more zombies getting egro'd.

Zombies can go through walls (means that even if you try your best at breaking lines of sight they would punch you through walls.

Zombies cannot die by 1 melee hit with ANY melee (Firefighter Axe isn't useful anymore).

Zombies are fast, running from them takes atleast a 5-10 minutes run.

Zombies respawn delay is OP

Zombies respawn location is OP

Killing 1 zombie in a town will egro 5 more, and will spawn 1 more infront of you.

Zombies can see backwards.

Zombies can hear you from more than 30 meters.

Zombies won't drop any loot (like they do in the mod).

Zombies might sometimes spawn inside the floor in buildings, making them almost invulnerable while they can still hit you.

Female zombies aren't sexy.

 

Zombies can't climb ladders

Zombies can't go upstairs

 

You can't really argue with these facts, especially the last one in the disadvantages. Zombies are too OP. If I find a Mosin and a Pickaxe for example, I wouldn't be able to lose zombies except for running a LONG run away from a city.

 

You said you will FIX stuff in the alpha, but appearantly a few good months ago towns were actually lootable.

You should take your time and search through the already existing threads in these forums.

 

Zombies are currently placeholders. Don't expect them to stay like that. They're currently being worked on and pretty much all of the above is going to change soon.

 

I shall lock this now, as there are plenty of threads around discussing the Zombie-behaviour and how it should change soon, make sure to go and read them.
