Zombies in places at all times, fireworks.

[Gam3Junkie 34]

Hi.

Zombies should be in cities/villages/places 24/7, not just when players are nearby.

Whenever you see zombies in a place up ahead, you know there are people there, which makes it kind of..boring/not exiting.

So zombies should be on constantly, not just when players are nearby. Same would go for loot i suppose.

Second suggestion; fireworks.

Make it so you can find fireworks(in stores for example), which you can put down(like beartrap) and ignite the fuse using matches.

Whats the point of this? If you for example lit up one over a city, then the zombies there should stare up at the "explosion/effects", and just stand still for a few seconds(15-30?).

That will give players another possibility to avoid zombies. Though at the moments its not really anything you need to worry about, its just an obstacle.

I'm sure having zombies alive all over across the server would cause waaaayyyy too much lag. Too much AI to account for. Fireworks would be cool to see though.

The zombies are the way they are because your suggestion causes the game to lag.

Fireworks? *makes the clint eastwood face of disappointment.

Zombies should spawn randomly. Also I made a thread about fireworks, and they could serve a better purpose. Land of the Dead was a good movie but the fireworks thing was weird.

I'm pretty sure the item you're looking for is "flares"
