Dumb Idea - Karma?

[eXcecution3r 0]

Alright well I know this isn't that great of an idea but it just popped into my head while reading about all the player vs player killing going on.

Karma lol

What if after you kill so many people zombies start coming towards you more? Say you kill 1 person, nothing major happens. But say you kill 10 players, zombies start to slowly gravitate to you.

Kill 20, 30, 40, etc. players and more gravitate to you. Creating a sort of "Bad Karma" end to you type of thing?

Bad idea? Horrible? Ok?

I posted this exact idea 2 minutes ago in the other thread! haha

It sounds interesting. You could put it off as, like, the blood of your victims, or the loudness of your heartbeat is attracting the zombies.

But a question, by gravitate do you mean that more spawn on you or that the distance from which zombies notice you is enlarged?

They don't really notice you more than before it's just more gravitate to you. As in more zombies just happen to slowly walk over to your area than before when they would wander around in a different direction.

They don't know you're there and they don't have a heightened sense of sight towards you, they just happen to wander over more. The heartbeat thing for this might be able to work in a sense as I know if you make small amounts of noise the zombies do kind of gravitate to the noise somewhat.

That could be a work around for this?

This is a really elegant way to dissuade some people from wanton murder and from blatant camping, since they wouldn't be able to stay in one place for long before the zombs were on top of them.. It's also not offensive in terms of violating 'realism' since the zombies are conspicuously fanciful anyway; giving them this extra ability is not a great stretch of imagination.

Nice. Hopefully one of the devs see's this and maybe thinks about it. Might improve with all the player killing and camping going on.
