Author Topic: Zombies in the Bluzone** [[CLOSING]]  (Read 581005 times)


I'm bored of Bluzone… It's not a Zombie RP anymore…
That is all.

I never see this server up anymore. Are there certain hours that it is up?

Bluzone is what you make of it.

Yeah and a bunch of people make it a sci-fi military RP.
But really it's what the admins make it…

Krio is turning against us,

Kill him!

In some ways, I agree. In others, I don't.
The key feature that keeps Bluzone together is it's community. The whole "people interacting with each other" in a different world is what keeps bringing people back. It sets them a story, an experience that could not be achieved in other ways. Life as a person in a crumbling society constantly attacked by military forces and zombie raids. But there's one slight problem.
Zombies aren't zombies, they're just petty obstacles that die with one hit of a crowbar. In my opinion, this should be different. The first flaw is the zombie's AI, they should form hordes and slowly crawl around the city, where as now they spin in circles and hop like bunnies. Two, is the zombie's health. You could have a clothes hanger and knock down 3 zombies in a second, I mean, seriously. Guns however, take two shotgun round's worth to blow open a head. Third, is the community's reaction to the zombies. Normally they'd charge straight to the zombie and finish it with a single hit, but I mean, come on, not everyone is a professional gunner. People should get scared at the sight of a zombie, they should react by staying low and keeping quiet, trying not to attract the zombie's attention. Of course though, the zombie's AI has eyes on the back of it's head.
To me Bluzone is more of a "Oh god there are two armies fighting above our heads" Instead of "The apocalypse is here, we should find food, water, weapons and a barricaded home". I really hope this doesn't offend anyone, especially Kniaz, and I hope you take note that I'm just sharing my opinion :).

Yeah, but part of it is, AI cannot RP. You cannot RP hiding from a zombie if the zombie is an AI bot that stalks you and kills you anyway. Therefore, I think it might work best if there were certain players with a "claws" weapon or something (not mutalid claws) who RPed as the zombies.

Sounds like a horrible idea. People would easily abuse the power.

Not necessarily. Hell, maybe they dont even need claws and they just act as though they were mindless zombies. Probably would be limited, to prevent abuse and whatnot.

I suggested that guns should be one or two shot kills on zombies (or head-shots should always be a one hit kill but body shots would be more) but they instantly attacked the idea and absolutely hated it. They don't want to change it just because it's always been this way (fascism (just kidding (but really))).
Also it's not just the zombies, it's the build too. I know you're all probably crushed to hear it, due to the amount of work that's gone into it, some very recent; but the events are repetitive. I've witnessed people trying to counter this feeling within them, but the 'new' events are short and have no legacy.
If none of you agree with me, by all means don't waste your time.
I'm just saying what I think, so perhaps other peoples' voices are heard through me.

The community would be divided, and that's a horrible thing since Bluzone is held up by it's prosperous community.
