Mass should be zero, the weight of the zombie in it takes it to the ground.

They look more like "new" zombies actually... Try making differently aged/mutated ones? IDEA: make their deployment style... Dead Dropship droppod.

I think they look gory, but past that more can be done to really slap the player in the face with the fact that they're supposed to be undead or "infected" or what have you. And that needs to happen for this mod to be aesthetically effective.

The stance is too human, too upright. I think if this changed they'd be believable enough.

I don't think tearing them up and making them look decayed is really all that necessary. What you have looks plenty good enough as far as the outward evidence of zombification. Since they aren't mutated physically (their proportions haven't been tampered with by the infection) then that's probably what a coalition clone would look like if undead.

Now, if you want them to look inhuman, if you want them to really be distinct from a normal coalition clone then there's still work to be done on the sprites. It depends on what kind of appeal you're going for with them. Do you want the zombies to be confusing to fight? should the player be unable to tell the difference between a zombie and their own troops at first glance? This is an admirable goal, because that's a fun gameplay dynamic and is a good way to make the player nervous.

On the flipside of this you could make them truly strange and terrifying looking, like they've mutated and then put through a giant cheese-grater. This makes them more interesting to look at and sets them apart from the coalition. It's probably going to be cooler to look at, but you lose that frantic uncertainty that the other option would afford you.

Right now it's somewhere in the middle of these and doesn't have the strengths of either option. It's my personal opinion that you should choose which road to take and start taking it. I would love to see this mod get huge, as i've never played a truly competent zombie mod and i think this one could pull it off.

grenade, upon reading your story i can confirm you should get someone else to type anything complex in english, as everything ive seen from you is unintelligible, or not far off.
on the actual zombie, i agree with allen. if you changed their stance it would make them look a lot more zombie, and they would be more fun at either polar end of the zombie spectrum.
