One Hit Zombie

[Chase9548 5]

So im playing and i go to the NWA to go on my usual barracks run and i found a DMR and a pair of NVG's in the same barrack, and i turn around cus i here a zombie and i try to ADS, wont ADS, so i think well this weird and so i try to shoot, no shots, i reload, doesnt reload... so i try to get out of the barracks to loose the zombie and he hits me once and causes instant death. I has 12,000 blood, and have never had this happen before. I know it wasnt a hacker because i was the only one on! Anybody else have this same thing happen?? WTF?!

Follow this so hopefully we can get this looked at and fixed!!

It was zombie Chuck Norris.

Sorry, couldn`t resist.

I`d guess this was either a latency issue, or a culmination of multiple bugs.

Or an exploit, but I don`t want to presume.

I've been seeing it a lot recently. I think zombies found an old steroid factory and juiced up.

thats what it seems like, this game is almost unplayable with the amount of bugs

you sure you werent on green mountain? your lucky he just killed you could have been worse

[Chase9548 5]

Yea i know, ive heard of the bug with the camo clothing where it just drops you and sends you to debug... that would piss me off almost as much if not more than this

The legendary 1 hit knock out..

Yesterday in market zombie hitted me and i lost about 10k blood and broken bones :S

[sostronk 334]

I was recently knocked out by a Zombie whilst I was on 12k blood. I wasn't expecting it because I thought they could only do it at -9k health, apparently that isn't the case anymore.

This happened to my mate at NW airfield it happens randomly i think, may be a bug or zombies are getting stronger -.-

Are you trying to tell me that Mike Tyson is now a zombie?

[Kerbo 198]

It happens sometimes, I've been one hit killed a few times. Maybe the random damage calculator occasionally goes nuts?

ADS?

[Delta Smoke 01 765]

The problem was that you joined a server on a previous beta, then joined that server. That causes your player to bug out and not be able to ads or shoot. If you had switched/dropped weapon you would have been fixed. As for the one hit KO, its been around forever now. Dont let them hit you :)

[Kra 151]

I was under the impression that if the zombie hit registered in your head, you get the devastating critical hits.

ADS?

What keys do you use to move?

[Chase9548 5]

ADS means Aim Down Sight

[chris p. bacon 182]

The "one-hit-zombie" is often mistaken for a hacker respawning you. If you die, and your blood remains at whatever it was, and your leg breaks, this means you were respawned. Hackers often do it to avoid danger/kill people annoying them.
