I was expecting something like two guys in a bunker holding off hordes of zombies and receiving airdropped supplies level after level.

While this mod here is also a good idea, there are too many bugs.

Ah, i missed the bit about it being a 2-player map. I feel a lot less attached to that other character now. redownloading the patch.

Hmm. Alright, I tried it already.
Okay, the weapons new masses make it great. It reminds me of old deathmatches in Quake or Doom, because you can grab a lot of weapons and stuff.
Now, the players don't start with grenades, in fact, the browncoat doesn't even start with a secondary weapon. Before it came with a nailgun and a shovel in medium, now it only has the nailgun.
I Ctrl+R'ed a lot of times to see if there were any bugs on spawning, and it works fine. No more spawning in middle of the soil.
The new weapons for the boss made it harder to beat, that was great. It was kinda hard to beat him in medium, as the scene is very close-combat, fighting near him with his nailgun was more challenging.

It evolved ok, except of the part of the characters not having some weapons.

Thank you for your precious feedback :P
As for that grenades thing.. yeah I forgot to mention I cannot find the grenade Lua Class... "Frag Grenade", "Grenade", "Coalition/Grenade" won't work.. and I can't find it in any folder!

Post Re: Zombie Survival
a lot of zombies still spawn in the dirt for me. I look around the map for the last one i need to kill so i can move on, then realize that i've wasted my time and they're unreachable. Then Ctrl-R. I don't spawn there anymore, and that's good progress. I've spent a lot more enjoyable time with this iteration than the last.

The bits of floor that aren't really there: is that a bug? is that intentional? If it is then there might be better ways to surprise the player, like rendered cave-ins or something. I dunno.

I'm still not sure why the robots are there. i keep looking for a tool with which to dig them out and use them. Are they purely aesthetic?

Toward the end of every time i win, a large number of zombies spawn on top of one another and i win by default. Getting there is a lot more fun this time around, but i'm always surprised that i win when i do. Focusing the end to where the player can take credit for it would make it quite a bit better. The last two levels which are meant to be the hardest are actually the easiest by far.

Other suggestions:
Having the zombies move around a bit, hunt the player or patrol around. This would make it harder, but then it might cause the zombeis to inadvertently kill themselves which might add to the player's lack of control over the victory conditions. Could be worth messing with, i dunno.

Maybe the map should be more open. This map is not small, but closed. It should have outdoors areas too.

About that bug, I still don't know why that happens, there's no such spawn, though, I made 1 more zombie per round so just in case one is broken you can kill the new one, you haven't wasted your time looking for him, he was really somewhere in the map.

The bots are aesthetic, yes.

So long story short what you want me to do is fixing zombies spawning on zombies?

Grenades:

:D


What do ya all think if I spawn like, 20 zombies in a round and when you kill them all 20 more zombies spawn?

Only if you make them not appear in masses and crush themselves making an instant-win.
That is another problem there is when too many zombies are spawned.

problems with zombies spawning together


If you make custom zombies with HitsMOs = 0, shouldn't be an issue.
