    At the moment warz doesn't feel like a zombie apocalypse with PVP server. Instead it's a PVP server with a few zombies added. Zombies currently pose little threat to players' lives, even with their greater numbers in higher tiers. In my opinion, the following features should be added:

    • Zombies don't spawn close to a player. This means When you clear out an area of zombies, it's safe until you leave.
    • Increase the maximum number of zombies around a given amount of players. They wouldn't spawn faster, but they will keep spawning to higher numbers than before. About 3x the current cap.
    • More versatile zombies. Perhaps add baby zombies, or pig zombies without their swords.
    • Zombies do more damage. When you start putting on diamond armor, zombies only do half a heart of damage or less. 2x the damage would provide enough buffering.
    I understand this is a common topic, but i believe I have some original ideas here.

    The main concern in WarZ is fighting other players and getting loot, not zombies really. I don't see a way that zombies could be implemented into gameplay without people getting annoyed. Some people (cough cough me cough cough) already have some issues with zombies, especially when they horde around you while you're fighting someone.
    Besides, most players generally don't have diamond armor, or don't keep it for long.
    If the zombies did more damage they would be torture for those who just respawned.
    EDIT: I didn't completely disagree with the idea, I just was saying that zombies are quite dangerous for some of us less skilled players (me :v) because they always get the first hit, and that often comes with an annoying status effect. Then they gang up on you.

    Yea i already hate zombies as it is, when you're in a zone 6 and a big battle is going on maybe a 3v3 or more so many zombies will spawn as it increases from players and zombies killed

    The thing about the zombies in WarZ is that they're effective in numbers, and often when I get to high zoned towns, such as snow on the old map, I spend mostv of my time killing the vast number of zombies that attack me. There was a time 2-3 months ago when the zombies were buffed, and the players found them so over-powered that the staff nerfed them again after a few days.

    Personally I think that the strength of the zombies is fine, and the more there is of them the harder they're to deal with.

    The server is a zombie apocalypse, not a war zone with zombies. Personally, I would like it if zombies didn't do damage to armor and did direct damage to your hearts. I like the idea of zombies not spawning on players though. Personally, zombies are a much larger threat than players. However, the compass and other things like that make them seen and make them a larger threat.

    I have to disagree with that. WarZ is not all about PVP, or rather it should't be. WarZ is based on DayZ, and the main concern of that game is to survive. Other players are only part of the game. Zombies, sickness, and finding food and water are a part of survival too. But in WarZ, none of them are a challenge at all. The only challenge to WarZ right now is the PVP. Zombies should be more than a nuisance, they should be a threat to your life.

    I do agree with this - however, simply buffing the damage that zombies do won't be much. I liked the idea that @bob8is8cool proposed, how zombie damage would ignore armor. In addition, zombies could always have more health, as opposed to buffing their damage and making them torture for newly-spawned.

    Yes, bob8iscool's idea actually seems like a good one.

    More like 50 zombies, which still pose little threat to lives.
