New Left 4 Dead Infected Class Idea.

[Sharp_Shooter]

A mutated dog that can run double the speed of a hunter and grab on to the legs of unsuspecting survivors and drag them in to a corner to become dog food but cannot climb fences or gutters. The dog would be armored in the front so when the dog is walking back words dragging a survivor in its jaws, the other survivors would have to hurry to get behind it and shoot it in the back. The dog would be most effective when the survivors are really low on health and are limping so they wouldn't be able to catch up with it to save there buddy from getting chewed up. Primary fire would be biting and when the dog is crouching it gets the ability to grab on to a leg, so it would be similar to the hunters crouch leap attack. The secondary fire would be a howl that attracts a pack of dogs that just pounce and bite but don't clench their teeth into legs, this ability would be only used once per life. When the dog is idling it will make a dripping noise from its saliva when it hits the ground and a random sniff. Finally when the dog is crouched he makes a snarl and barks when survivors get closer. When the dog is killed it gives off this substance that can make survivors hallucinate, for example they might hear a horde coming, witch crying, a tank running, boomer barfing, hunter hissing, smoker coughing, ETC but none of that is actually happening. This will also disorient the survivors view.

It will be called a Blood Hound or just Hound.

um no?

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

Lol, why not?

 

[blackhawksniper]

That sounds good. For "realistic" reasons, make it a police dog since you suggested armor.

 

[Freeflow]

Oooh.

Check it.

Edit: and by check it I mean zombie dogs might already be in the full game if they have sounds for it.. eg, 'zombiedog_attack'

 

[Tylantt]

I've played as a zombie dog in Call of Duty 4. it phails

 

[Black cat]

I liked the break form a zombie dog in every game, but you've clearly thought it through. you know what would be scary? Zombie birds. Kra-KAW!

 

[Raziel44]

i fail to see how the survivors can get behind the dog,if they're limping,and apparently the dog is really fast?

feel free to explain this

If all four survivors are having naptime you restart at the last safety room.
It's the same when your three companions are limping and you get attacked by a hunter/smoker.

i actually think thats a pretty cool idea it seems like it would be a liittle overpowered but yeah nice idea

 

[Hoodie]

No "armour", and it's a great idea. I can't picture an armoured dog. Just a strong one.

 

[jdcskillet]

I think it could be a lot like the your initial alien stage in Natural Selection. It's a balanced class, which is although faster than the marines, is easily shot down. The dog could be fast, but not too fast, and you could shoot at it while being dragged (you can already shoot if you're on the ground), so I don't see how it would be unbalanced. Although, I have a feeling it would be useful in limited instances (like the scout in TF2).

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

Yeah I guess it would be a little over powered. So I guess get rid of the mutation in the front part of the dog so he would be more vulnerable.
