like what this guy saidZenn3k said:Slow zombies are not only boring, they are non-threatening.
How do you escape a massive horde of slow zombies? Walk at a brisk pace, or ride a bike. Ever seen the original Dawn of the Dead from the 70's? At one point they enter the mall, filled with zombies and they just run around them like they were pylons.
I never got how the slow zombies managed to "infect" the world. Its so easy to kill them or escape from them that it shouldn't have even been a challenge for any decently organized force.
Fast Zombies are at least scary in the "omg we have to run out asses off or we are zombie food" kinda way, ala "Rage Virus" or Dawn of the Dead remake, and CERTAINLY more threatening.
Yeah, but there would be so many you're going to run out of bullets eventually and they never sleep! While you're resting they keep following. You can't run forever.bioshockedcriticjrr said:with slow zombies there's no tension, its like shooting fish in a barrel. With fast zombies, it's much more understandable to see how someone could get infected
Actually, zombies are caused by a virus. But anyway i like slow zombies mainly because they're easier to kill and the zombie survival guide won't be a complete piece of horse shit.JoshGod said:(yes i am aware left 4 dead is infected not twchnically a zombie but they're bloody similar lol)
i dunno i mean imagine a horde of sprinting zombie's coming over the distant hill skreaming there heads off i mean that would be more scary than a hord outside your house that are slow and lumbering around if i could choose though i would go 4 the slow 1sJaqen Hghar said:Zombies aren't zombies if they can think, run or use weapons of any kind. Other than a chainsaw duct-taped to their hands.
I use the Zombie Survival Guide as a... guide when it comes to what a zombie is or isn't. That book is brilliant, and made zombies seem almost real.
Zombies are also more scary when slow. Yeah, a fast zombie can kill you faster, but the psychological terror of a vast shambling horde is so much more terrifying.
But that's just me.
