PC Do zombies not carry loot any longer?

Of the 4 zombies I've killed so far in A17, not a single one has been lootable. Is this a new thing where zeds no longer carry loot or is this a bug I should report.

Thanks.

Every once in awhile they drop a big yellow loot bag. "Usually" something useful. It was changed awhile back so they weren't an easy source of loot.

 
Thanks. I haven't played since A15 so it's been a while.

Not sure I like that change...I'll probably end up changing it back.

 
The loot they drop is usually pretty good; food, weps, ammo, usually several items. similar to a safe or create, but with its own type of loot.

One time i was looting a tool store and got 3 loot bags in a row while clearing it out and then a 4th one after killing 2 more zombies that came in the building. Luckiest loot i ever got from them.

 
I like the new change with it, instead of looting 50 zed and getting mostly misc/garbage items and maybe some glass jars or water and some brass you can get some really good items if even only 1 dropped something.

Give it a chance.

At first I didn't like it at all.

I have several base designs for A16 that maximize loot.

Now we don't have to spend so much time cleaning bodies and, when you do get loot, which is rare [3%], it's really good.

After playing this awhile I'm really on board with this.

I like it.

Who knows, maybe in time you will too.

Ah give it a try. You just don't have to worry about the 99% of the bodies having trash loot that was worthless. Saves time and memory. Change is good.

 
The loot needs a longer despawn timer, needs to make it through a night when fighting a horde.

Also spike kill XP please for SP. (shameless plug) :D

 
I like this change except that it has made Bones super valuable. Perhaps the most valuable commodity in the game (on a server where you need to supply Shotgun Shells for 4 trigger-happy players as I do).

lul, I have been getting terrible RNG in stable. I have killed over 500 zambies, got around 3 lootbags.... candle sticks and polymer.. FML

"That's not bad luck.

 


That's God smiting you for being a s*** head!"


LOL this is a post I once saw years ago.
