like the topic suggests, the zombies have just 1 attack which would be whack. it would be nice to add 2 more attacks, the most obvious ones:

Bite

less damage, but gives the zombie some HP back since he gets some food.

Infection

no damage, however, it infects the player so he'll soo be a zombie. as soon as he turns to the dark side, the zombie who infected him gets points for the turning. maybe less then just killing the player, so itll be a decision between more teammates or going back to humans.

the more stat points you have in skill, the more attacks become available (so thats not useless anymore). wouldnt go for more then 4 attacks though.

thoughts/comments/ideas??

They have a "bite attack" already i think but i don't think they made an animation for it and also i agree with you about when they bite you they get health or hp for it. I also think that if a player turns zombie they should have it were that he could switch between hands and"mouth" and it could show yourself biting a player. smile.gif

skill actually also increases the damage for every weapon.

we could add something like bite but infection won't work. We had to reduce the advantages of being a zombie quite a bit during the betatests as we realized that everyone wanted to be a zombie. We really try to keep the amount of zombieplayers low because it's no fun to be outnumbered by npc zombies as well as playerzombies...

Right, Mr. Smarty Pants McSmartysmart... thought you told me in the "Harder" thread that this game was supposed to be co-op.

What's all this about more zombie abilities and "more teammates" for the zombie team (not to mention most of the ideas you "just" came up with today were in the aforementioned "Harder" thread)?

I want an attack that grasps people so you can drag them around. This would finally allow me to drop survivors off in the heli rescue zone so the round is finally over...
Oh and you could also drop people off in a zombie mob... biggrin.gif
I'm just kidding, would be hellish annoying for survivors if zombies could pull that off. smile.gif

Yeah a grasp would be cool, a zombie would grab a person and just start chowing down on the persons neck or somthing. With blood squirting every where smile.gif

What if a Zombie could bite a persons arm off so he can just use 1 handed weapons, then later turn into a zombie. Of course the more damage/gore attacks are later in level.

Also what if Zombies could lay on the ground and wait untill a person runs by and gets up and starts chaceing the human?

some ideas I had.
