Yeah, I get what your saying for sure. If it was the shoot in the brain way then I can see if it was not a headshot or something of the sort then they could come back. Or maybe depending on where you struck during fighting them and how much.
Even if there was a small chance though of them coming back then I would probably still butcher, smash or burn them anyway since that small chance could randomly happen every turn though.
i think the biggest problem people have is that you didnt have to do it before. it is a major change to gameplay and difficulty, especially if some people arent as anally retentive as others in looting and pulping every single zombie corpse. i remember when revival was added i was just like… wat? and this is pretty much why:
i will happily play the game either way, it just really changes the game. it adds a new layer of depth to combat, and as Prince Hamlet of Denmark said, “nothing is good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” i think it will be pretty badass once you get a char high enough to just pulp the zombies when you hit them most of the time anyway, whether it be by sniper rifle, explosive arrow or the coveted self defense style of OP-fu[/quote]
Yeah, I remember playing the whales version then found this was still being continued elsewhere and remember when it did not exist. Most people hate change normally so I can see why people would be upset though unfortunately, always going to happen one way or another just guess I did not think this would be a big deal when I heard it was going to be removed before it happened.
Yeah I used to smash them to a pulp then was like I could just butcher them, so much faster. Makes me wonder though if they will make the zombie’s corpses un-butcherable though or increase the time on it to do so or make it so you “have” to beat them to a pulp. Like you said I will play either way though, I kind of like the fact I have to pulverize there corpses or they get back up and if I miss a corpse by chance then to my mistakes I could regret missing it later haha. I’ve had it happen from a dogs corpse but I could not do much about it since it died on a vehicle spot so I could not butcher it so I ignored it to die later by it :(.
If it takes half a second to butcher a single zombie, then my longest lived character would have spent nearly an hour and a half of MY time doing nothing but ‘cleaning up’ zombie corpses
He’s killed and butchered/pulped/burned/disintegrated almost 10,000 zombies in his lifespan, this is not an insignificant length of time.
That said, after I got started I tended to molotov piles of zombies (Usually burning down the house I was using as a chokepoint), so I’ve probably spent less than half an hour of actual time doing corpse cleanup for that character.[/quote]
Yeah I normally just try to route zombies into one tile and burn them since it’s much faster for sure so I can agree. 10,000 zombies and an hour in a half of your time butchering them though is not that much time though unless it was all in one sitting but yeah it does add up. That’s just what I am saying though, it adds a new danger to the game and if you by chance miss one it could come back and bite you in the ass later though.
I guess everyone does not like it but that is fine though since I guess that little time could of been spent doing something else. Like you said it’s an insignificant amount of time for 10,000 zombies. In one day’s sittings worth of playing the game for a few hours to a full day it would still be considerably small in time comparison though to not be a big deal to me anyway.
