Infinite zombie horde bug

Recommended Posts

I actually fear that this is not a bug. This would be exactly the kind of evil tweak Rocket might sneak in, just to gather some data how players cope...

Zombies can now be quite lethal.

It's been in there since 1.7.1...It only happens when you are at specific places too. Like these 'super barns', as we call them :P, but only in certain towns.

When it happens in Pretrovka or somewhere like that you are in real trouble, as there is nowhere to 'herd' them to to get any breathing space!

Notice at the start there is a desync and all the AI seemed to freeze. I am wondering if it has to do with that...I was also wondering if it was my friend's FN FAL, as my M16 doesn't seem to aggro zeds further away than 50ft or so.

yeah... no such thing as a "super barn" but everybody knows that zombie spawns are glitched the moment you kill 1 another respawns immediately

there is no grace/safety period when you clear an area of zombies unless it is with a silenced weapon

if you use loud guns you will just agro any zombie that respawned outside to come rushing back in

Might have happened earlier too but the improved zombie hearing has amplified it greatly. I no longer even consider firing non-silenced primary weapon at zombies (unless a sniper from 300m+) - you'll just aggro far more than you can handle. Pistol headshots seem to still work somewhat okay but even there you have to be ready to run if things get out of hand.

Saw this happening on a barn near stary sobor, I killed like 100 zombies with the hatchet (it was easy cause they all got stuck at the door), and they kept coming.
