Future Infected Idea

[heradon 12]

Not sure if the engine can handle this, but this is my idea.

I'd like to see more infected. Cities and other hotspots should be packed with LOADS of infected (Static spawns) and the re-spawn timer should be set off to 15-30min or something. This will also encourage people to cooperate, since you will easily use a few mags alone if not all of them. It will definitely be easier if you have a group. So when you clear out an area, then it's all clear for infected. Infected won't just randomly spawn like it does now... You will have time to pick up your loot without worrying about infected re-spawning too quickly. Areas with that packed with infected usually have more loot spawns or higher valued loot. You can also find good loot outside the cities and hotspots but it will be rarer and less high end equipments. So if you alone it will be smart to stay out of the cities, because they are packed of infected and loot can be found outside the cities/hotspots.

I also like to see infected humans and creatures randomly roaming around in Chernarus. This would scare the shit out of people! I mean if there was a vicious infected bear walking around in the forest. Wouldn't that be extremely awesome and terrifying at the same time?

One day you're chilling at your camp next to the campfire with beans and cola, it has been a long day and its dark outside. Then suddenly you hear some weird noises from the deepest of the wood. It's a roar from a vicious creature. You don't mind, It get quiet for a while again. A few min later suddenly you hear some noises. You look around and then you see two eyes in the darkness not far away from, it shines clearly in the moonlight. You can hear some sniffing noises, getting closer and louder. The creature can smell your survivors scent. It knows you're there, and its walking towards you. You start running, the creature starts running! You know you can't run away from it and you scream and run like a girl. You turn around and are firing from your pistol , you're emptying your magazines. The bear doesn't seem to be affected and its still running towards you.The bear is getting real close. Is this the end of your life? Out of nowhere hear a "clap" and the bear i stuck in a bear trap. You were lucky a hacker had randomly placed a bunch of bear traps around the area... So you live for another day.

The human infected can be roaming around in groups but this is very very rare. All infected will spawn as runners, but like humans they will decay over time and become hungry, hunger will slow them down. They can regain energy by eating survivors or animals. Bitten creatures can also be infected, they will much like any other infected. You won't know if they are infected before you get close to them or making too much noises.
