Introducing the "Zscientist"

Recommended Posts

... after the outbreak, the government selected the best doctors and experts for virus diseases to study the infected. The mission target was to find a cure against the problem. In secret undergroundlabs near a city with enough electrical power supply they studied infected to find an antidote. The scientists problem was that they couldn´t extract the virus for tests, because it dies after a few minuts outside of the subjects. After two desperate months of failure one of the scientists had the idea to concentrate the virus so it would be more stable for tests. But the head of the operation rejected his request because it was way to dangerous. Secretly the scientist talked a few others into his idea, infact it wasn´t stupid... After one week of secret work they managed to create the concentrated virus but something went wrong, terrible wrong.

The last recorded words regarding the incident at the lab came over a distress frequenzy: " something is breaking out of the lab.... never seen such a thing before..., oh my god what is this!!!, its killing us like flies... *aarrrgh*

I think it would be cool to introduce a Z more powerfull, as rare as helicopter crashes. The reason why i think it is a good idea is simply put that it is pretty difficult / impossible to finde antibiotics in the game... and so you had some kind of "bossfight" with a little backgroud dropping "one" antibiotics for sure after killing it.

so long Rudson.

Not against a stronger Zed type. Maybe it could be like the Brutes in Dead Island, where they have a distinct growl so you know they're there, and they move a little slower (not walking slow, but out-runnable slow), hit a bit harder, and are a drain on ammo to take down. Maybe they'd have a chance to spawn only in high-demand areas? Even then it'd be fairly rare, but at least when you take them down it's in a spot that's more likely to have good loot.

Yeah I agree with having a little diversity in the Zed population, but don't turn this into Left 4 Dead or Dead Island!

Well, the brutes (at least I think that's what they were called) were more-or-less just normal zombies, just stronger and slower with a loud, distinct growl. I definitely agree to not having anything like the Special Infected from Left 4 Dead. The day when I have zeds spitting acid at me from across town in Day Z is the day I stop caring about the mod.
