I think they should go with the idea of a canine infected who clamps on to a survivors leg and slows them down. Not dragging them, but greatly reducing their movement. And it would be nice if it could drag a incapped survivor because no other infected has that ability yet, which is a little dissapointing. You can be carried away while your able to run, but not dragged away when you don't even have the strength to stand back up, let alone defend yourself from an infected attempting to smash you into the ground? That be messed up.

if one of the campaigns would center around a high school or college campus, then they could have an uncommon common infected that is wearing a football uniform and because of his helmets, is immune to headshots. This ability would definately make him a threat playing realism.

What about a Possom. It can have several different looks based on the area, because he will take the look of any random common infected. His primary attack is automaticly used when he has suffered equal damage it takes to kill common infected, when this happens he will pretend to die. while on the ground, he will lay perfectly still, and wait for a survivor to get close to him. Once the do he will trip them and twist their ankles, capping them, regardless of health.
to deal with them, you should have to check any infected corpses that remain. Its ultimate enemy is fire, obviously.

Off topic, i like how they made it so there can be several thousand possible common infected skins and textures, so they should apply that to special infected. Now, im not saying there should be 5,000 possible Hunters, but at least 5 or so. Its strange on how EVERY S.I. you find all have the SAME shirt, and the SAME pants, etc. So more diverse special infected would be nice

Hi i have own idea of special infected

My special infect is tieer. he is familiar to the smoker, but he is more mutated, dont have smoke and have a yellow tongue around his neck. he's main attack is as his name say, is tieing survivor. first click fire tongue, like catapult and tie survivor. Secund click on something, like car, wall, etc... will fire secund end of tongue at this and tie survivor to this. Also when you do the secund click, horde will spawn and attack constricted survivor. If other survivors dont come help survivor, horde will eat him, or her. there is two ways, to help constricted survivor : 1: kill tieer. 2: melee survivor 3 times


main attack: tie survivor. damage: none.cooldown: 15 secunds

secund attack: attack his arm. damage: 5 points per hit. cooldown: 0,50 secund

special: nothing

I like the Leecher idea, but your speeling of 'leecher/leech' is quite inconsistent.

I always had an idea of a more 'cultured' infected, who was able to wield firearms like normal people. Although this could potentially cause the game to devolve into nothing more than an average shooter game if not implemented properly, or taken too far.

Also, an infected that wears a suit and smokes cigars. Just to be badass.

The leecher idea is interesting, but it sounds like a toothy version of the jockey and without the survivor control.

Personally, I want zombies with guns. Infected soldiers, they have m16s or pistols. Kill them and you get their guns. They will be uncommon infected. This will not only make the game more interesting, it will also bring to light what happened to all the soldiers or police sent to stop the zombies.

The pregnant, a smoker esque infected that attaches an infected baby to a player. The baby doesn't do much other than swat at them. It functions much like a jockey, but, when they are attached, the player can still move and do normal things (Think of the infected like some disease one gets from some MMO. Another player will have to bash it or shoot it off.

Oh, they're certain not making it, since Valve hates the number 3 for some reason...

I'm new at this but I'll give it a shot. I was thinking a very hard to hit special infected (like a snake like person, long neck, thin) and he serpentines up to some one, swallows them wholes and try's getting as far away as he can.

Another one is almost like a spider in the way she moves very fast on any surface and can do so e sort of facehuger thing from alien and idk how long this would last, maby the same as black and white vision, only goes away with hp pac, but the next time the survived goes down the effect takes place and the chest burster like thing will be damaging the downed survived and when it kills them they become an infected, or an infected comes out of them. Idk how balanced this is so any constructive criticism would be nice.
