rushcrush 20 Posted July 25, 2012 Today I logged on for the first time from 2 days and I noticed that zombies aggro are very low, did they actually change the zombie aggro? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
natebot88 7 Posted July 25, 2012 It feels like they did. Seems like they aggro at much lower levels of visibility/ hearing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[Gen]Adzic 241 Posted July 25, 2012 I think they have the balance just about right, when I first started playing you could crouch walk almost right infront of them without aggravating them, now at least you have to be a fair distance 20 or so meters or they just spot you easier than a sniper. Definitely harder than they were, are they hard enough? I think so. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rushcrush 20 Posted July 25, 2012 I don't know if its a glitch or not, I just double tap w run infront of a group of zombies and they wouldn't do anything, I even stand infront of them they wouldn't do any shit, and they keep standing in their own position, idk if I am glitched or w/e but it seems to happen to me on all servers.

moriak 35 Posted July 25, 2012 some say they aggro too much, some say too little.. I think it all depends on how familiar you are with the mod and zed behavior.. their vision range during the day is quite long Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thefonztm@gmail.com 86 Posted July 25, 2012 Still getting the odd super far aggrieved rarely, but in general aggro is way down. Drove a bus through a town, aggro'd 2 zed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think they are somehow stuck because they are unable to reach the person they aggro on for some reason (unreachable, died, DCd, ...) but it's only a guess.. never seen that anywhere else, only in Cherno (with snipers shooting left and right) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StoneColdSteve 52 Posted July 25, 2012 they see too well and hear too poorly. the hearing part is supposed to be fixed in next patch so at least that's something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most likely a glitch, running infront of one would be asking for trouble under normal conditions lol I even have times where I can find only varying rucksacks and crowbars for loot, like nothing else spawns anywhere.. then join a different server and everything is normal again.

Dazed 80 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) I think they have the balance just about right, when I first started playing you could crouch walk almost right infront of them without aggravating them, now at least you have to be a fair distance 20 or so meters or they just spot you easier than a sniper.Definitely harder than they were, are they hard enough? I think so.They're not hard enough, they're far too easy. At this difficulty, their needs to be about 3 times as many zombies. People have way to much ammo and never any need to use it or find more. We need zombie hordes. This game is only difficult b/c of the pvp. Take out the pvp and you'd have a carebear zombie survival game.Yesterday a couple buddies and I found 2 helicopter crashes about 50 meters from each other and right next to a town. We couldn't get within 60 meters crouched without aggroing 40+ zombies and we couldn't crawl all the way in without aggroing them either. With the quick responds, we ended up wading through 2-3 hundred zombies to get the loot from the crashes, that was fun. For the first time in ages, we actually had a person die to zombies. By the end of our run, we were using hatchets, we went through all the ammo we had on us. Edited July 25, 2012 by Dazed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
