PC This zombie crouch walk animation has got to go, or be fixed.

I would love for us to be able to move through a 1-block hole horizontally once again. But I wouldn't see it as unfair. Zombies have so many disadvantages compared to us that I'm okay with them gaining an ability or two that we can't do. I don't think that player abilities and zombie abilities need to be symmetrical. If you think about it, when they add the "play as a zombie" feature, it would make it that much more fun to play in that mode to be able to slither through 1-block holes when you can't do it as a living human.

faatal mentioned that it is a balance to being able to hold a jeep, 40 tons of concrete, a gyrocopter, and 30 trees worth of lumber in your backpack. Sure, you might get through normally but your backpack gets stuck [SIZE=14.6px] :) [/SIZE]


Ok is this correct as I haven't seen it mentioned for a while. Is there for sure going to be a "play as a zombie" feature added to the game at some point. Or is it a more "We'll see" thing.

I'm not certain. I was going to go with "I can't say" to make it ambiguous and keep people wondering if I meant I'm not allowed to say but....I'm not in the mood.

This is kind of a necroed-thread btw although nothing has changed since it was started so I guess we can keep it. Sylen is the necro thread sniper so we'll see if it withstands his scrutiny.

lol I never realized how old the posts were. I wouldn't have asked if I had seen. Carry on as usual :)

 
Adding to the necro-thread. But, I would like to see that if a zombie goes into a crouch. It stays like that for a few minutes. Instead of how it tries to immediately go back to standing. 

 
For whatever it's worth, I'll concur with the OP that this mechanic is broken.  Zombies will crouch and hit you in the same movement within a millisecond.  It's broken and needs to be fixed.  It's good to hear that the crouching mechanic when released wasn't exactly completed and that hopefully in A21 it will work better.

While they're at it, I hope TFP are working on fixing the drone pathing so that it isn't always trying to get right in your face like it doesn't get enough attention or something.  Let's also not forget about fixing how zombies can hit you through walls.

This.

I would like to see that go but I doubt it will.  There are at least ways to avoid it.
