Gametype Ideas

[calthehunter 61]

1) A gametype in which a 60 player server splits up into 30 survivors and 30 infected (or super infected, whatever. Could also work better as a 40/20 split), where the survivors are going about their normal business while the infected players have 8-10 ai zombies that they can issue simple orders to.

Also, 2) A gametype in which every player on the server is assigned an enemy ai that is (x) amount stronger, faster, and smarter then your normal zombies. Consider it a Nemesis of sorts; You'd never be safe.

I understand it would take some work to apply new game mechanics like this, but being ambitious never hurt anybody. Last I checked, dreaming big didn't either.

I think you have the wrong game mate

While those are cool ideas, I think the essence of the game belongs solely to the survivors. I agree that the zombies need to be made more menacing, but I'm not so sure that that gameplay idea would be the solution to it.

There is this game series called Left 4 Dead. Might wanna try it.
