Play as a Zombie

[[APG]Gumby]

If a "KF source" or "KF 2" was considered by the game developers, I would like to have the "option" to "play as a zombie", not a common specimen but a choice of say, Siren,Skrake,Fleshpound,Stalker,Bloat and a limited use of the Patriach by a player.

Jesus, L4D is shining right through that whole post.

"Common specimen" lol, never heard anyone call Clots common specimen before. Im surprised you didnt say "Common Infected".

But yeah theres already a mod that does just this, except that last time I checked it was pretty much impossible to play as a specimen. I mean, it was almost impossible to hit anyone with anything...

Well that too, but not only you were very easy to kill, your hits pretty much always missed the target which is annoying.

YES, and preferably add a min post count for that too, altho it might encourage spamming.

I dont think anyone that desprate to make their thread will bother spamming several messages to put theirs through, they will probably just try to hijack the thread for their idea.

Trust me Ive seen this happen in other forums with such limits. Usually the limit is something like 3-10 posts, so they spam each topic with one word replies just to get enough posts. But, maybe moderators here are quiker than they are ?

You know, I have said in other threads that I think a medic type specimen would be a horrible idea. But, if it were controlled by a player, I think it could be great fun giving simple orders to the specimens and patching them up. It would certainly make the human players stay on their toes because the specimens' movement would now be as unpredictable as a human player. You could play as one of the medic scrakes that worked out.

I think Natural Selection has the whole "play as a monster" thing down perfectly. It's awesome to pop out of a vent and bite some noob marines head off. Unfortunately, I don't know of any specimens that can walk on walls or leap 40 feet.

Crawlers on steroids.

I always thought that controlling specimens would work better in RTS style, like Zombie Master.
