jezex90 12 Posted May 25, 2012 Quick suggestion:sAs someone stated earlier before, women in games are either poorly represented (hypersexualised stereotypes) or simply not at all; so I thought it would be cool to add some diversity to the Zed roster and include female zombies (as right now it seems that those infected seem restricted to the Cherno Country Club)Children are also hardly respresented in games, the issue of children in especially violent games or ones which simply show the world for what it is (dangerous, cruel) is something that's always a bit of a rocky debate. The inclusion of child zombies I think would feed off the taboo vibe and add an extra layer of depth to the Chernarus situation; not to mention the new sets of sounds and behaviours would be downright chilling.

Bandit Hunter 29 Posted May 26, 2012 There is a suggestion already up for female zeds/players/bandits, just down the street from this topic.Children would be an entirely different model that would need to be constructed from scratch, down to the animations. Sounds difficult. It would diversify the world, but would it be necessary, especially with as much work is already in progress? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suicide Mouse 50 Posted May 26, 2012 It's not that simple though. People would freak out and try to shut the game down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the animations would be a whole different argument. The animations could be made from scratch to give it a better/smoother animation, or someone could just modify the current animations from the zombies.It's not that simple though. People would freak out and try to shut the game down.Yes this is why most games don't have children in them. In my opinion, children would make it more realistic, and I don't see why people freak out about things like this. But I don't see children being put in this mod.

dut 21 Posted May 26, 2012 Rocket expressed concern that if this became a stand alone game he wouldn't want it immediately banned in Australia & Germany. Killing children, regardless of their hostility would be a surefire way to do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-=Grunt=- (DayZ) 0 Posted May 26, 2012 Women zombies would be good. But I believe children zombies would be going too far. Too many people would complain about killing children zombies. (Although Fort Zombie has children zombies) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
