The zombies them selves

[jerryflorez 0]

The zombies need to have a better AI. For one I juist hate when your in a warhouse then out of no where a zombie passes through the CLOSED door. Another bad thing is that Zombies run in zig zags. For example, First they will run to the right then they wil run in zig zags at you. Its difficult as hell to shoot them when they do that shit. When they run at you, Its like a black guy at the olympics. FAST AS HELL. Over all They look good from a distance, Not so much.

The mod is in alpha at the moment so every bit of zombie interaction is basic.

Zig Zaging is a good thing and adds some challenge to the zombies

zig zaging is not a good thing.

It's funny how much people want to throw around the realism argument, but then defend unrealistic lightning-fast movements like this as "making it harder". I suppose next you'll throw in a "carebear" comment and tell me to go back to CoD even though I don't play it.

Zigzagging is infuriating because of the lightning speed at which they do it. It is completely unrealistic and makes it near impossible to hit them unless they are standing still, which usually means they are busy biting your **** off.

Zombie movement is completely stupid right now. Zombies are half-dead, barely functioning bodies of rotting flesh. Yet they somehow have the intellect to zigzag and the strength to run twice the speed of a man. Fix this.

Will this make them easier? Yes. Just spawn more zombies or make them tougher.

These zombies aren't dead.

They are infected with a virus that keeps there body healthy so they have the ability to run and be smart.

i am sure making the zombies more "zombified" (is that a word?) is on the list of things to do.

The zombies are in the idea of the 28 Days 'infected', and I enjoy the ferocity that the zombies seem to show.

However, the zigzagging is pretty insane, but I do notice that they aren't particularly affected by momentum.

Zombies aren't that much of a problem, except when they hit you through walls / glitch through staircases lolol

The Zig-zagging is an ARMA engine issue ( I know, there's a lot of engine issues).

Here's my advice to you. Wait until they are within range, and stop running, then you move backwards. As they do the 'hit' animation, shoot them. That's what I do.

Be warned, if you don't have perfect timing, or have high ping, they will hit you.

Guarantee you all this stuff will get fixed/changed eventually (the alpha thing and all)' date=' but yeah, it's pretty immersion-breaking right now to see them walking through closed doors and magically (and frustratingly!) hitting you through walls, no doubt about that.

Another bad thing is that Zombies run in zig zags. For example, First they will run to the right then they wil run in zig zags at you. Its difficult as hell to shoot them when they do that shit.

Well I don't mind them being kind of tough to hit (all part of the challenge), but I definitely agree that the bizarre teleporting zig-zagging stuff they're doing in the mod's current state is just plain retarded looking, and worse, literally feels broken and messed up. But again, I'm sure that's just a temporary thing that will get improved at some point here, so I don't get too hung up on these things right now.

Zig-Zagging? part of the game. Plus who shoots at a moving target? Wait for them to stop. Evert time I run from them they do the same animation.

Which goes like this. Run->stop->attack->run

Every time they stop that is when you shoot them. It's not hard to dispose of zombies. Unless you are being followed by a horde. Which will be tough.

The only time i think zigzag movment would be a nono is whe they can hit you while running.

As of right now, that run/stop animation happens when they get close to you because they are FASTER than the player, that is the opening to get a headshot. rinse and repeat. If they were able to attack while running, then I would understand. In this situation they would have to be taken care of once aggrod or else you will die for sure even if you try running.
