Linux2600 0 Posted July 15, 2012 First let me just start by saying: Excellent work on Dayz to the Development team! Thank you for all your hard work and keep it up!So I’m not sure if there is already a topic on this or not. (i could not find anything)The idea is when damaged enough (or even by random selection) you could have the chance to become infected. This would give you no use of weapons and you would only be able to run and attack as the Zeds do until you are put down. This may add another level of horror to the game as this seems to be the case in all the movies/lore. now I’m no game expert so I’m not sure if this element could possibly break/unbalance the game. It's just a thought to throw out there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shuriken333 20 Posted July 15, 2012 Would have to somehow disable respawning in this matter.I, for one, would be like "Well, I'm a dumbass zombie now." *Respawn* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heineken (DayZ) 15 Posted July 15, 2012 Although I do enjoy the idea, I dont ever see it becoming a reality because as it stands right now DayZ is a zombie survival game not a zombie playing game(Couldn't think of a better way to describe it.) Also I think many players would get angry cause they came to play the survival aspect and would create new players every time they became infected. Linux I don't want you to think I am insulting your idea just stating my opinion on the matter. Anyways happy surviving! :beans: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
takfar@gmail.com 24 Posted July 15, 2012 Im pretty sure they are taking either the l4d (survivors are immune) or the walking dead (everyone's infected) stances in the game. We know little about this infection, tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways happy surviving! :beans:No I do agree with you, the main idea of the game is to survive... wonder if down the road (possibly when this becomes standalone) they may make this into a "mode" of the game. Kind of how other games have a capture the flag mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
