Climbing and Jumping

Recommended Posts

Let's just say that you make a desperate run for the police station because the hordes are closing in on your home...

Now a horde three times the size had besieged the P.D. They chase you and you find more and more zombies, one more idea in a real zombocalypse....

 

THE ROOF! :evil: HECK YEAH!

 

So you climb to the roof of your house, then the zomboids will wait for you to come down, you'll need watr and food and ammo, so you jump to the next roof, and climb down, then you can just run home!

 

It also helps against banditos on MP, they might have to climb the wrecked stairs everyone wants? Or as a zombie safe tree house? Annoying to get into and easy to besiege but it might just save you in the long run if done right! If this seems to OP then please leave ideas on how to balance it, like risk of injury, zombie spawns on roofs (Idiot survivors   :cool:) or some buildings are only access-able buy climbing! Like in 'I AM ALIVE' by Ubisoft.

Climbing individual components of stuff is the best example of implementation.

Since you have stuff like patios and such, it should be possible to add special 'ledges' for players to attempt to jump up and climb up, based on your strength level.

 

These are considered 'acrobatic' skills in the skill list maybe?

 

Like climbing onto the top of a car.

Climbing a tall fence, jumping over bodies, a quick jump over counters, desks, crates and balconies sure would save more lives then shotgun shells. 

 

In your fort, making a bridge between houses like an escape rout, that in the middle of it you have to make a simple jump so no zombie can follow you. Or dragging crates to make an escape rout inaccessible by zombies.

 

Getting in a house by an open window in the second floor that is accessible by climbing in a garage ceiling.

 

 

Sure would add something real and cool to the game.

Zombies would have to be able to climb too then, we have all seen the movies getting on top of a car won't save you when your surrounded by 20 Zeds. I'm not saying that they climb walls like in 28 days later but 50 zombies press against a wall, ones in the back end up pushing the ones at the front to the bottom and pretty soon the have made a ramp of undeath and are getting over. They would be able to pull them selves over counter tops just like when they come though windows ect ect.
