Zombie Herds

[Klu 20]

My brain bounces back and forth a lot with DayZ and The Walking Dead. I routinely play this wonderful experiment fantasizing that I'm a character in The Walking Dead (usually the hillbilly badass Zenoist [Zennist? I don't fucking know] Daryl). That show r0kz0rz my b0x0rz

In that show there are herds of zombies roaming around. When I go to dayzmod.com there is a picture on the front page with what looks like a herd of zombies.

What do ya'll think of this idea? Random, relatively huge, slowly-roaming herds of Zed. These herds would have their own kinds of mechanics, I suppose, to keep them moving from place to place. Wouldn't it just freak you the fuck out to be running through the middle of a forrest, dark as hell, flash light tucked away as you sprint along your merry way when suddenly you come over the crest of a hill to see 100 zombies stumbling up over that same hill.

Just one idea to make the Zombies a little more relevant. If this has been suggested I apologize in advance.

Well hell, for that matter it'd be nice to see a random zombie here or there while I'm in the middle of no where.

this needs to happen or its not a zombie game. its just a bunch of idiots dancing around a town that look like they want to throw up. largest rave in history gone bad.

I did read it all through, it has been suggested a many a time. But of course, it is a sick idea XD

This is an optimisation issue and we'll see more zombies as the code improves cuts out all the unnecessary stuff from ArmA.

The correct term for a group of zombies is a horde or swarm. :P

I just did and he's right this has already been suggested before, all because you change it a tiny bit, does not make it a new idea.

I would like to see something like this, but I imagine more optimization, etc would have to be done, in order for something like this to work.
