Ronarch Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Does anyone else want an option that set the zombie speed between sprinter and fast shambler?Sprinter setting renders a quite impossible difficulty unless many other zombie lores are weakened. (and it simply doesn't work in multiplayer currently)But fast shambler is not challenging enough even with superhuman strength and tougher toughness. (zombies still can't catch you even you are just walking away) So I would really want one more variation, maybe called jogger, to be included and it places the zombie's speed between sprinter and fast shambler.This makes you have to run to avoid being caught by zombie hordes. Also, I think it would be super nice if another option is presented to change the distribution of zombie's top speed.eg. 10% Sprinter + 35% Jogger + 35% Fast Shambler + 20% Shambler Lionheart2, Geras and Svarog 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ld-airgrafix Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I set mine on slowest, but an insane count. So you are forced to run everynow and then as not to get caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Bower Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 A zombie that can out run you when you walk is desired, I'd love to see fractured legs become almost a literal death sentence. Or at least when you are full weight + fracture or like rain + fracture. Would really make zombies dangerous again.

Svarog Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 A zombie that can out run you when you walk is desiredYup, there is something really hilarious about being chased by a horde of 50 zeds and managing to get away from their grasp by... walking away. Sure, occasionally one gets close enough to start trying to bite you but by the time the "bite" animation is complete you've already walked away imagining it's confusion at the fact it bit the air.And all that on Fast Shamblers with a character that has all skills on 0 so nothing speeds him up. Shamblers will never catch you if you don't straight out stop in place and let them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadhawk177 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Definitely would value as a player. At first, the game is pretty hard, but getting away from zombies eventually becomes very easy when in the open. Perhaps a 'Varied' setting, so that there is a sprinter or two for every ten fast shambler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronarch Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 I set mine on slowest, but an insane count. So you are forced to run everynow and then as not to get caught. Does it make the player have to run and run most of the time and have little chance to fight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfen Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Would really appreciate jogging zombies, I also would appreciate a jogging speed for the player to match that speed, one that wasn't as fast as sprinting but took longer to tire the player out.

Zorak Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I agree that it is a bit tol easy to outrun zeds. Its fine than your walk speed is a bit faster than zeds, but movment penalties are too low. The slow from exertion and heavy load should be much bigger.

Ronarch Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 The slow from exertion and heavy load should be much bigger.That is also a good way to adjust the difficulty to a more challenging and more interesting level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeetgamerBoi Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 This literally sounds like the most simple mod you could make.Add an additional button, add some intermediate values in the Zombiespeed/ Sandbox.lua Files and boom bam bang!How has no modder picked this up?I play with sprinters sometimes.What i do is i try to get guns early on to lure a massive amount of the poopulation into one house that i have walled shut except for 2 doors.Then turn the oven on and burn it to the ground.And i won.Most zombies in that area are now smoking ash.I drop my guns and start using the knife jawstab method.

WolfeClaw Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Agreed. I only really play with shamblers since I always preferred those kind of zombies in media, but extra options would be fun to play around with, especially if it got into percentages (provided the animations were properly adjusted to ensure a zombie wasn't walking at the speed of sound, of course.)
