Zed's should destroy loot in their spare time

Recommended Posts

I don't even see reasons to kill zed's given current AI behavior. It's better to lose them rather than waste ammo/alert other players. They really have become a mere ornament in a deathmatch powered survival mod. So I feel like players need so additional reasons to kill zed's again. If AI destroyed loot ONLY when players are around, it would get interesting. Simplified

Players killing zed's = more loot in world

Players ignoring zed's and killing other players = less loot in world

Note that the 'ONLY when players are around' bit is important. I'd require loot farming techniques out of the equation, of course.

However, I just expect people to be complete dicks and play around this to make other player's life even more miserable. Maybe that could be the catalyst to promote more teamplay on the long term. Or not.
