Low Counter-Strike Duplicate Jailbreak: Zombie Day Upgrade

[Daddy Succ]

Zombie day. You either love it or hate it. Unless the map is small, it's almost always a tie or an easy T win. I think a good way to balance out zombie day would be to lower the speed penalty CT's receive when they are shot. If a map has climb with no recall, it's an instant T win because once they shoot you mid jump, you fail the jump. I'm not suggesting the speed penalty be removed entirely, but instead be lowered so the CT's have a chance.

The best way to see the issue is on quake. If the server is full, there will usually be 20-30 T's sitting on the ledge secret outside. If a CT peaks, you are instantly dead because you are getting shot so much that you are pretty much frozen in place until you die. Allowing you to still move would help the CT's and also encourage CT's to pursue more. Pursuing the zombie day isn't fun when you get frozen in place and instantly die on some maps.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.


(I also think zombies should receive a speed boost but that's for another day)

I agree.

How can you say all that you just said and then semi suggest speed boost? What's the point of lowering speed penalty to pursue climb and other games, if you literally cant pursue climb because you just zoom past the blocks???????

I’m talking very minimal. Nothing crazy that would restrict regular games.

Or the ability to turn it on and off \o

When I think zombie I don’t think a shit ton of HP and that’s it.

If anything the roles should be reversed, CTs should be the survivors and Ts should be the zombies. Zombies are all about numbers, not tanks. Think infections, spreading, being afraid you’ll turn into a zombie if you get bit. Classic movie tropes.

Swap the Ts, reduce the health to normal, let the Ts respawn where other Ts are, REMOVE THE DUMB BLINDNESS, and you’re looking at a pretty fun game mode.

I actually like this idea, it should be discussed more. Although I don't think the health should be normal even if the horde is 40 to 14. I'd reckon 300 or something would work well but it would definitely have to be tested on a full server to determine the best health to make it fair.
