Query

Indeed, I found the old running to be annoying, which is now called Sprint.
I didn't mention that there are now 4 settings to choose from plus Nightmare that I added today:

Walk, Jog, Run, Sprint or Nightmare.

will we have the translation into Spanish of the skills in the next update?

 
@faatal
Will these settings affect experience points, since in some way they make it easier/hard to survive ?
Click to expand...
No. The point of them is to make the game easier or harder. Changing xp makes it easier or harder in an additional way which is even harder to balance and we have enough balancing to do already.

I doubt it. I don't think that work will be done until all the localization strings are not being changed and added every day. I don't know how we get that done. I assume some company translates it once stable.

 
Nightmare scares me... I think I'll try it during day for 5mins just to see what it's like... haha

It sounds so good, for too long we've had it easy. I want to feel vulnerable trying to survive, I want to fear stepping out of my base so much that all I have for day 7 BM is just some broken glass so I don't become one of them. I want to cling on to my bedroll screaming in a dark attic naked cuz I've ripped all my clothing for bandages, as I hear em wrecking my base.

As one smart guy once said:

"With those things runnin' around? You can count me out."

Currently it is a 20% move speed boost, so not horrible, but not something I've tried in a real game. Other devs were wanting it. I'm not planning on playing like that. I'm not crazy.

Be so good if TFP can add this to the dead screen. I'd die just to hear it once in awhile.

Who are these other devs? They need to be commended!

 
Don't know exactly what the new options are since the forums are blocking me from viewing the image. What it sounds like is that there's an option to change how fast the zombies go in the start menu. That sounds pretty cool. However, the nightmare speed mode sounds like it might get a little monotounous. Instead, imagine that the zombies walk MOST of the time, but they have the potential to be set off into feral mode at a moments notice, if you get unlucky.

I also can't view forum attachments. Pretty annoying.

... so it's day 14, 2200, me, doom, and aurealus are sitting on top of the Amityville house poi waiting for the horde to come in, and instead of paying attention to the stream of glowing cops and spiders that are pouring in, we're staring at the backdrop, the luminescence, the Moon, and overall beauty of the new spectrum.
Nicely done Joel.

So is it like default where they walk 20% faster during the day and 20% faster than sprint at night? I'd like an always walk where they are just slightly faster than me, but not run where they cross 10m in a second. Keeps it to where I can't just walk and they not get me, but I can still get away if needed. Could there at some point possibly be a slider? Be able to choose the starting, basically walk 100% is jog 0%, jog 100% is run 0%, run 100% is sprint 0%, etc?

This is an amazing addition, I just started playing with my gf, I like the idea of having more difficulty if we go outside at night, but not the full on sprinting zombies like before. Thank you for the newfound flexibility! :)

And how we rate against player speed, I guess Walk = Player Walk, but does Run = Player Run or Sprint = Player Run ? I am guessing nightmare is higher than player speed (but can it catch 4x4 with nightmare speed?) I mean what are relative values of each ?

Will all these be expalined? Like what is the difference (speed, arrgo distance) between, Jog, Run, Sprint and Nightmare?
