BeaverProductions 441 Posted April 11, 2016 I remember a good few patches ago, it would be hilarious to watch a small squad of infected chasing a cow or chicken around. Sometimes they would battle for a very long time. Do you think we will get back to that at some point with the AI? We will have wolves and bears roaming around. I assume we will be able to watch a pack of wolves hunting some deer, or a bear maul a goat to death, but will a rogue bear who wanders into a city start fights with the infected? I can imagine some superb things happening with that. You are pinned down inside a house. An attacker is close by and stalking you. He fires off a round in your direction and starts to get swarmed by infected. A bear hears the sound and comes to investigate. Infected start to aggro the bear and the bear starts to fight the infected and your attacker. Some wolves also come to investigate and it turns into a 5 way battle for survival. You vs Attacker vs Bear vs Wolves vs Infected. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LordBlackwolf 656 Posted April 11, 2016 I don't think a bear would naturally attack any infected but I could see the infected attacking the bear though. As for animals coming to investigate gun shots? That's not likely to happen because I seriously doubt that it even happens that way in real life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To the bear its just another source of meat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirEpicTickles 19 Posted April 12, 2016 Most bears don't naturally attack humans(zombies are let's say humanoids) and actually avoid contact. There are exceptions as when feeling cornered, having cubs, starving. Bears run like crazy if they hear gunshots or even if they smell gunpowder. When I was a bit younger, we used to go on mountain trips and camp in zones full of brown bears. We always had some local hunters with us just in case, and at sunset they had a few used shells that they put around the camp so that it scares bears away. It worked as we never seen them getting closer to camp, even if we saw at least 5-10 every day through the woods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suddenly an infected was chasing them, too. He only attacked me, after I came too close (seems players are more attractive than cows). I was surprised myself - hadn't seen that in a long time. But I guess that's just because there are mainly infected in towns and mainly animals away from towns. If we ever see hordes and the likes, they should clash with animals and chase them far more often. The question is if they can ever catch them. It would need a lot more infected, since animals are mostly too fast to catch. Edited April 12, 2016 by S3V3N 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
