And it solves the problem with the uber dumb zombie AI. If the DayZ devs do this, I guarantee it will revive the game. Let them absorb twice the gunfire of a human, so that only a decent headshot or basketball sized hole in the chest will kill them, not just a single tap on the bonce with a hammer. Add more animals, or at least animal carcasses. Don't let them eat each other, so there is no incentive for zombie on zombie action. Give them a health system so that they must have human or animal blood within a period of game hours or days, or they will die. If they get kills on human players, let them grow in size, add limbs, extra heads, surgically attach chainsaws to the bloodied stumps of their wrists. Yes, allow players to take on zombie skins. Let the players be zombies!!!! Or as I will call it "HvZ" (Humans vs Zombies - see what I did there?) (C) Heinkill 2015
So, you can't make a silk purse out of pigs ear, but I think you can still save DayZ for people who actually want a zombie game. I want zombies that hunt me, zombies that swarm together and chase me for miles, that gather in hordes to attack bases and forts, that scare the living bejayzus out of me.ĭayZ is clearly not going to deliver that, ever.īut you can craft fish hooks from bone and go fishing. I want a game where the zombies are the most dangerous things on the planet, not some 12 year old kill-on-sight moron with an AK47. I want zombies!īig zombies, little zombies, weird zombies, sick zombies, zombies that bite, and infect and slash and drool. Or that serves as yet another player vs player deathmatch map. I don't want a zombie game that offers fishing and hunting and growing vegetables. Good for moving a clan of guys around the map I guess.īut after a couple of hours exploring, I logged out again and amn't likely to go back soon. I found a couple of trucks, did a couple of laps of Cherno in them, picked up some guys who wanted a lift, ran over a guy who was trying to shoot me, ran over a few zeds and.
Dayz standalone new renderer mod#
I never played the ArmA mod with vehicles, just DayZ standalone, so having a vehicle has been a novelty. Or maybe they are just easier to kill so the other players wipe them out pretty quickly and all you are left with is human vs human in there.ĭriving a truck around has at least kept me a little amused. Melee seems a little more precise, but haven't they reduced the number and type of zeds in the game? I don't see any of the hopping horrors any more, and the zeds actually seem fewer and further between. My main bugbear has been the zombie AI and that hasn't improved. I spooked a pig that bolted over a field, up a mountain about 2 clicks and for all I know, it is still running! Their 'run the hell away' routine seems much improved. Animals do behave a little differently, and it is harder to get close enough to kill them by hand. It's been a few months since I updated so I saw some visible changes, like new locations, but the last few patches don't seem to have made a radical change, more another evolution.

Inspired me to update and run around Chernarus again.
