[quote=“Rivet, post:4, topic:222”]The amount of wandering zombies in a given area ≠ the amount of people that would realistically have inhabited that same area pre-apocalypse. Little town with three houses and a gas station = 1200 ravening zombies that will appear from thin air and chase you down the moment you cross their invisible deadline.
Also, abusing prescription drugs in order to ‘run’ is really weird. Why do Cataclysm people require chemicals in order to shuffle their little feet faster? You’d think when a horde of the undead are breathing down your neck you might decide to move at something quicker than a slow walk, but apparently @ shaped people can’t be bothered unless rewarded with pills.
tl;dr Towns have way more zombies than they ever should and we really could use a ‘run’ key.[/quote]
Maybe a sprint key… I think we’re already running but the zombies are also running, or at least shambling at a decent pace. The fast zombies are probably just running on all fours like the HL2 fast zombies they seem to be based off of. Or maybe we have Left 4 Dead infected. (We’ve already got a Boomer, so maybe?)
