Zombies too OP

[wolfstriked 143]

Why are they still knocking players out when they could just cause a knockdown.This way we avoid these posts asking for sweeter zeds.

One day young sir, you will be able to walk among the zombies as If you were one, one day grasshopper.

I'm inclined to agree with the flamers here. Once you know the ropes, the zombies in this apocalypse are trivial. I'd say zombies account for fewer than one in ten of my deaths nowadays. They'll only really get me if I'm on tilt after a respawn and just jog unarmed into a building with only one door, or if I alt-tab to look at an out-of-game map and get slooowly eaten while afk.

The fact that they can't catch you if you don't stop outside, and the fact that they can be dropped quickly and efficiently indoors, and the fact that they lose line of sight pretty easily all combine to prevent you from ever having more than two or three zombies to deal with at any given time.

What happened to you there was a pair of unlucky hits. Zombies double-critted you, which is wildly unlikely. Even so, it's your own dumb fault for stopping in the middle of a foot chase to draw your sidearm. In case you didn't know that weapon transitions stop you, now you do and you'll doubtless remember it.

zombies are pretty easy - the only current problem is the inconsistency in their damage

The knock out shit needs to go. Seriously, its all about luck if you get hit, you might pass out because a dude just fucking slapped you. Its not a good feature and needs to be removed. RNG much.
