stue 0 Posted July 24, 2012 so far i've died about 12 times, not a single death was due to zombies actually killing me, 6 times i've fatally injured myself from doors, crawling next to walls, and walking over a half foot rock. but today as i finally made the 2-3 hour journey to the main airport, i was crawling and a zombie aggroed from 40 meters away and when he hit me once i was knocked out, broken bones, and in shock, i lost 9k blood in 2 seconds and died.. i was at 12000 blood, i wouldn't mind if i was below 6k, but at full hp, full hunger and water, i was in pristine condition with the best loadout i could imagine in dayz. just for once i would like to die without going WTF?!?!? not one single death has been fair or "as intended" so far my dayz experience has been frustrating and boring.. not playing untill one hit kill zombies are fixed, ruins the suspense, ruins the immersion, ruins the fun.

JulieMeyers 78 Posted July 24, 2012 Please, please, please dont fix this. I really like zombies actually being something to FEAR instead of something annoying that hits you while you fire away at real players. With zombies being this dangerous you really need to plan what to do. If you keep getting killed by zombies you should be more careful. Patience pays off. Try it! Once you drop your guard in this game, you die. Simple as that. It's not the games fault. It's your fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredaaay 3 Posted July 24, 2012 Yeah I know the feeling, got knocked out 3 times yesterday by zombies, first from 8k blood, then once 12k blood. The third time a zombie ran into me, I started bleeding from 2 places, broke my legs, and got knocked out. Luckily I had a friend with me who could get me up.

Womb Raider 92 Posted July 24, 2012 Has happened to me before, was clearing one of the corner houses in Cherno near the clock tower and a zombie dressed in military clothing, ran up and one hit me for 12000 blood, couldn't believe it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genki Dama 49 Posted July 24, 2012 I believe rocket more so is making them along the lines of infected humans, instead of the risen dead... So a ravaging human, think bath salts or other mentally deranging drugs, can make you pretty damn powerful.Yes because drus allow you to punch someone in the stomach and make blood come out of every part of their body XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

unclegus 21 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) I think one hit bone break is ridiculous, regardless of blood levels, and one hit KO should be pretty much only when you're passing out on your own anyway. I had two one hit bone breaks and two one hit KOs in the last DAY. Complete bollocks. I think the broken bone should only be possible if a zombie has hit you a couple of times consecutively, to sort of simulate the whole "getting a hold of you and giving you a good old munch" kind of thing. It's not that a zombie would hit you with its fist and break your leg, but more that if you don't get away from it, it will grab your leg and munch. So this means that if you do get knocked out, and the zombies have a good munch on you, then you might be talking about broken bones.Also, instead of potentially knocking you out when they hit you, maybe there should just be a chance that they slow you down, more like L4D styles. If there are enough of them chasing you and hitting you, you won't be able to get away, which is more realistic for getting chased by a pack of zombies, I daresay.

Overhang 3 Posted July 25, 2012 I don't mind that they knock you out but its the duration that's ridiculous. You should not be 12k blood to 0 from 1 zombie, decrease the duration to like 5 seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shruu 2 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Happened to me too. Aggro'd a zed and while I'm running got hit and died immediately, from 12k blood down to -46kThats not possible, maybe you got hit by an AS50 or M107? looks more like a sniper or a rock you stumbled upon!Rocks can do 30k damage if you are in the wrong place, thats not a joke :\I think the Zeds are a minor issue right now, Rocket should fix the Alt+F4, Hopping, Hacking, Tent-duping and so on first.Than you can debate about Zeds beeing to hard for you. If you know that this can happen, avoid it! As simple as that!Something like this didn't happen to me once. I only died 5 times by a player, but 20 times by a bug.Thats normal for an alpha, so thanks for bringing this to our attention. You should just wait the 1.7.2.5 Update!Shruu Edited July 25, 2012 by Shruu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dj Mikey 37 Posted July 25, 2012 i will confirm the OP's honest words with a story of my own.Outside elektro i was, running circles in a field to draw sniper fire from a very horrible shot. When randomly a zombie dressed in a tux throws a very commendable right hook. Instantly taking out 7k of my health and knocking me to the ground. The sole zombie a.k.a. (Anti bandit/sniper zombie prototype) proceeded to eat my organs. Afterwards, i made it back to my body to find that the bastard had taken a bite out of my as-50.The title of this thread should be "mike tyson should run." No floating butterflies or stinging bees in these zombies punches.. just terror and grief. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azrail (DayZ) 211 Posted July 25, 2012 I've been knocked unconscious several times when I shouldn't have been.how do you know when its possible to knock you outits randomcan i rent your crystal ball for a day?i just noticed that recently the time you are knocked out greatly increased,it now seems unlikely to survive if you've been knocked out with less then 6k blood.dying with 11k blood is unfortunate, but very well possible.i am fine with that - new game new luck. lost all that imba gear? will get better gear this time.learn to think like that and you will master dayz any day.
