This mod is terrible

[daezd 2]

Let me explain;

The concept is good. The feature setup, with having to drink, eat etc.. It's great I always wanted a zombie game like that. But let me explain why this mod is terrible and not fun whatsoever. I hope the real game is much, much better.

1) The servers are some of the worst I've played on in any game. I mainly blame Arma 2 itself for this.

2) Zombies. This is a zombie based game. I don't feel like having 1 random zombie aggrod for no reason only to be chased by other zombies at full speed when trying to escape this 1 zombie that came running at me from a mile away. And let me be very clear, aggro is good in a zombie game. Speed is terrible. Even when running away, I have had zombies knock me down or hit me till I bleed to death. Forget the random agro, just slow them down. If I make one little noise, or they catch my scent, they should attack me. But full speed 28 days later is ridiculous for a video game like this. If say I made noise while going to loot a house, they should come up on me Night of the Living Dead style. I'm talking hordes but at a slow pace. And unless I'm quiet for a good say 5-10 minutes they should be circling the house making it impossible to leave. Aggro without the ridiculous chases that ruin this game. It's fun trying to defend yourself and think of ways to escape. Not run for no reason only to be knocked down regardless. This would balance out the zombie to PVP element. Can you take out hordes on your own? Probably not. More zombies. More aggro. Less speed racer mode.

3) Loot. The loot is always terrible. Not to mention impossible to get after this latest patch. I have found 2 sidearms, and played probably around 6+ hours. This is based in the real world right? Well guess what. In the real world if I stepped into any house in the countryside it would have 2 deer rifles and a couple of shotguns.

4) Players. Their should be a way to setup teams. Try DMZ safehouses were people can relax and setup for a loot party. Or heal. Or eat. Etc etc. Players should have SOME goal. I get this is zombie survival. But running from zombies on my own for hours does not make a game. Especially if I'm alone.

5) Damage. If I take one scratch from a zombie I lose buckets of blood. Blood that is hard to replace, and doesn't replenish. Or I get knocked out, or my legs broken. I get losing a little and I mean LITTLE bit of blood from being bit. Or maybe needing a shot that stops the infection from killing you. But c'mon? I press 1 and see blood oozing from my backside. It's dumb.

I could go on but this is becoming a rant. Slow your zombies, increase the aggro, increase zombie to population ratio, increase the gun ratio, make injuries more realistic (yes they are so overkill they are unrealistic, tone it down dude), make a place where people can rest together and plan a group in cities or otherwise.

If your going for a realistic zombie game. Smoke some weed and think about how things would really go down if zombies hit. Not your idea of how it would go. And zombies are supposed to be dead, so slow them the fuck down. Or else don't call this a zombie game.

Cheers

P.S. The Walking Dead series would be a good direction to go in if you're gonna make an actual game.
