No zombies or (Infected) anymore?

[tangaslipje1 0]

I think its a waste , i bought this game with a purpose and that whas so i could kill some infected people.

taking it away out of the game is a waste really , i think lots of  players would agree on me with this.

So why did the take it out of the game?

Are the gonna put it back in there?

 

Greetings Tanga.

The infected have been mostly removed this patch for multiple reasons.

 

It's an alpha - stuff like this will happen.

Infected were removed in .58 for developpement reasons, They were costing too much ressources the way they were implemented, they are working on lowering that ressource cost so they can return in greater numbers. It was already mentionned it would not be finished by .59 so let's cross fingers for .60.

At this point who knows really.... they could be back in .60 or maybe it will be .78

Unfortunately this kind of thing comes with the territory of early access. Things will be broken, fixed, added and removed constantly and that's perfectly normal.

 

The infected have not been removed permanently, just from the current build.

Update.

 

Devs confirmed that they will be back in 0.59.

 

Went and checked the status report over to see how it was worded and yes it looks like more of a confirmations than the usual vaguely worded "would like to".

 

From the last status report.

 

"- Infected: We're going to be spawning infected again at strong quantities in 0.59 as the gameplay programming team has been working hard on making sure we can have a smooth 75 player experience (which is looking really good guys, I'm pumped!). However! Internally we're going over some strong suggestions and ideas on how to maximize the concentration and spawning of infected across Chernarus. I don't want to speak too much on this until we have a concrete plan on how we want to handle this. Hopefully next Status Report we'll be able to cover exactly what the plan is in more detail. Needless to say, if everything works out - I'm pretty pumped about it."

 

As close to a confirmation as you can get but I smell a bit of an exit strategy in the wording.

 

Fingers crossed.
