Suggestion [New Zombie Type: Screamer]

Recommended Posts

Greetings all,

Just been browsing the forums when I noticed a recurring trend in people commenting on the ease of going through a town or village to get their beans for the day with less and less fear of the dead that walk.

A suggestion to increase the difficulty and suspense in these instances is to implement a new (albeit rare) zombie type which upon play detection raises the alarm with a shriek of some sort that alerts the disgruntled dead.

In terms of implementation the scream would work just the way any loud gun would, and the carried sound would attract both players and undead alike.

The reason for me wanting this is that it would both increase the necessity to remain unseen and may also give a player's location away to other players in the vicinity (to either the subject's assistance or dismay)

Fair point, this idea deviates too much from the implied realism and is too similar to 'superhero zombies' seen more popular arcade shooters..

Apologies *bow*

Monkey zombies ftw though..
