EveryOne Knows About The Rabit Playstyle.I Think There Should Be A Zombie Playstyle.

1.To start The Zombie Rampage There Must Be At Least 3 Players Present

2.Players May choose Who They Want To Be Zombie Via Poll.

3.Admin May Specify Who They Want To Be Zombie Via Admin Cammand

4.Zombie Variables Are As Follows:
1./set _zombieSpeed
2./set _zombieShotSpeed
3./set _zombieShotReload
4.etc.

5.Zombies Are The Only Ones Who May Have Radar

6.Zombies Can't Grab Any Flags

7.Normal Players Can Grab Flags

8.Once The Zombie Shoots A Normal Person,They Are No Longer The Zombie

9.If Normal Person Is Shot By Zombie They Become The New Zombie

10.If A Tank Is On A Team And They Become Zombie,They may Kill A Teammate

11.If A Zombie Leaves,The Next Person On The Player List Will Become Zombie

12.Admins May Not Assign A Zombie If There Is Already One In Play Unless
There Is A Good Reason.

13.When Someone Is Shot By The Zombie,"You Are Now The Zombie" Will Be
Displayed To The Shot Player

14.There May Only Be One Zombie At Any Given Time

15.If There Are Less Than 3 Players Active,Any Zombies Will Turn Back To Normal

16.When The Zombie Shoots A Normal Person,"You Are No Longer The Zombie
Will Be Displayed To The Former Zombie.

this Would Be A Great Playstyle,Could SomeOne Please Make it.Imagine....

i might think of a few more things to go with it.thx for reading.

Ummm. Isn't this just rabbit hunt with a few ajustments to the radar?

Anyway, its good, but too much like rabbit hunt. You should make it.... 5 players join. 1 becomes zombie. Zombie shoots normal player = normal player + previous zombie are now zombies. Then those 2 zombies shoot another normal player, he becomes zombie, etc. Also I think you should this use feature. You have to kill the original zombie to wipe them out, but, you can kill the other zombies (they turn back to normal players) but you will not wipe them out. Once you have kill the original zombie another one is randomly selected, or by poll. If the zombies wipe out the normal players, the person who was killed first (2nd zombie) becomes head zombie.

Feedback on this would be good

and what happens, when the zombie gets shot?

they die and are still zombies untill they shoot someone.

No, when you kill a zombie (not head) it dies and turns back to a normal player

In this playstyle if the zombie gets killed it respawns but is still zombie untill it kills someone.
in rabbit its many against 1,in zombie its 1 against many.
the players have to survive the zombie,sorta like hide and seek.

aha! any self respecting zombie (meh) knows that you dont really die after getting shot!!!! you must be SHOT IN THE HEAD. that's why zombs are so feared. i propse that instead of one zombie, when shot by a zombie, you become one, and the other one stays zombie-d. but more "zomb-ish" adjustments are needed:

- a zomb must be shot multiple times (amount specified by server)
- they move slower, but that rule ^^ above puts them at a HUGE advantage over the humans.
- they cant shoot, but they have something resembling steamroller power.
- if the person stays in contact with a zombie fr too long, they die by being devoured.
- if they escape, they have an amount of time (specified by server) before they are infected. then, they are zomb-ed. if they die before that, they respawn as normal. they should run away from their teammates, or ask one to tk them.
- when zombies type in the chatbox, to other zombs, it sounds normal, but to humans, they read:
"unnnnnnnhhhhh.... brrraaaaiiiiinnnss...."

good ideas?

sounds like we got a zombie expert here xD

Fluffy that's all good, but barely possible, Dmd's ideas are perfect.

Thanks.
