instynct 99 Posted July 27, 2012 I really think this game needs better zombie AI and overall movement. It's very lame how they sprint super speed and then stop in one spot and then sprint super speed again. What is the reasoning for them to not run at a normal speed to you instead of this laggy looking speed sprint. It seems like they made a booboo when coding and decided they wanted the zombies to act this way. But I guess if the devs want zombies this way i'll be looking forwards to a polished third party clone of this mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Womb Raider 92 Posted July 27, 2012 Sigh.You do realize that Arma 2 is a military simulator and Day Z was built upon Arma 2's engine, so how are zombies going to function properly when they were never supposed to be anywhere near Arma 2.Are you retarded?

dcskill 117 Posted July 27, 2012 Do I really have to say the "A" word? Seriously? You know what, go wait for your "polished clone" while this mod is DEVELOPING. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, don't bother posting you useless autistic moron. Obviously they modified the AI speed which was poorly done. Zombies don't need to run any faster than a human, they just don't need to tire.

This is a non-issue and a pointless tweak that would divert precious developer time away from real problems and useful improvements.I'm sorry that you struggle to hit a moving target but zeds/infected are fine with the super sprint.This idea most likely seemed brilliant when you were foaming at the mouth after being run down by some infected, but have a little think before you write something for the whole internet to see.

They aren't even really a threat on this game which is the entire problem. The only thing they do is follow you with annoying audio. BTW you don't think zombie AI is a 'real' problem? Are you stupid or what? The entire game revolves around zombies. Edited July 27, 2012 by Andromeda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jay.pis 32 Posted July 27, 2012 This was not done intentionally, it's because they do not have a proper animator in staff [maybe now they do] and basically just created or used default basic movements and tweaked them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you stupid or what? The entire game revolves around zombies. i totally agree the aim to hit is actually bang on target with guns (i cant say the same for hatchets) what i do when i have 7 zombie chasing me.. run and keep looking behind untill they thin out, alsong as you keep running in full stand its guaranteed they will never catch you, they have to stop still to try and hit you, a quick 180 turn and jog backwards when they do there "stopping thing" shoot! 1 DOWN!! repeat and rinse "you CAN run you CAN hide and if you run they will never catch you" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
