I believe this mod needs more melee weapons and a little more improved melee fighting. For instance take the axe in the game, its slow and does little damage.
If you use it you will turn zombie pretty quick tongue.gif What could be done is to increase the damage with the axe and add some knockback action, also secondary fire would be be an overhead stroke, raising the axe above your head and chopping down on a zombies head like a piece of firewood as aiming for headshots would be easier. My suggestion would be to have slow, hard-hitting weapons with knockback like a sledgehammer, bat, medieval mace, shovel, pitchfork, chainsaw, lawnmower; and have faster weapons which don't do as much damage like knives, swords, chains, pipes, claw hammer, icepick, piece of wood, nunchaku etc... I mean how cool would it be to wail on a zombies head with a ball peen hammer or take off its arm with a samurai sword?
Maybe even give the zombies different attacks like mouth bite, and claw, and if you take off its arms, it would lose its claw attack that has longer range and only be able to use its bite attack which does more damage, but have pitiful range? Adding more of a melee element would make the game a bit more fun, I mean how many of you have seen Shaun of the Dead?

1. First you cannot add models and weapons, becasue the maxmium has already been reached. In other words if you want a new weapon, you have to take a old one out. Also the Axe does a lot of damage, two hits to the head and they die.

lets see.. in shaun of the dead they used 1 melee weapon, a cricket bat.

seeing as that was humor orientated while thats a little too much for BB, we went with a *kinda* serious house kitchen and garden axe.

I don't think a katana would make it all, seeing as we already have an ax...

How about a pool cue, golf club, trowel, kabob rod, spatula, or a croquet mallet? Maybe a large trout?

purse with a brick in it, large iron rod used to pick up litter, cheese rasp, dough roller, plank with a large nail in it, pie with dynamite candles, blender with batterys, portable microwave, holy handgrenades and vicious rabbits, a anvil, and a 16 tons cinder block on a crane.

have we had all the cliché's yet?

OMG LOL !!! ROFL!!
I can just picture a bunch of survivors running around with lawn mowers !!! LOL ROFL!!

seriously dude, how are you going to carry half the stuff you mentioned?

Me personally, I always wished there was a chainsaw, but unless its super small, chances are you wont be able to carry it. The current set up makes sense:
Axe goes in a strap along your back
Pistol goes in a leg/waist/chest strap
Primary #1 you hold
Primary #2 is slung over your shoulder/back.
