Tweak the inevitable - Zombies in buildings

[#Sleepy 572]

So the majority of people assume the Zombies will be fixed so they can run in buildings and not be forced to walk. I too assume this will happen but there's a big issue with it.

When Zombies currently sprint they're like a black basketball player on steroids, they can run several hundred meters in seconds. Zombies are currently way to fast and I think that effects it's path finding.

Now if you're gonna say "Zombies sprinting in buildings already suggested use search fag", I clearly know this but Zombies should run about the same speed as the player. So players can still run around objects and buildings to get further ahead then the zombies. Saying this, I believe Zombies should also be able to hit the player 1/3 while they're right next to the player during sprint. This will make them not have to stop then hit then run super fast again, but they won't hit you like 70 times right next to you and instant kill you. Also second or so delay in between the 1/3 hits.

(Also I don't care if you qualify them as Zombies or "Infected", I'm not getting into a debate deal with me saying Zombie.)

Zombies seem normal to me. They arent running any faster than I am. Old patches they were running like crazy but now theyre good to go.

When they're running behind you they run the same speed, but when one gets aggro'd from far away they run super fast to get to you.

Never noticed that I always seem to lose them with LoS. I know they get an initial boost just like survivors but i always lose them.

I think its weird that no zombies are ever in buildings to begin with.... I mean if people were dying from infection, wouldnt it stand to reason that some of them would die at home in bed, etc?

Most zombies spawn around buildings and make there way out-word.
