put your wep away problem solved

Run with your hands empty, and run in a zig zag pattern to dodge when they jump at you. They will give up after a while.

If I outrun them without any issues, you can.

Also remember that double tapping W makes you sprint.

Watch them closely, something really trippy happens when they reach 88 miles per hour.

Never had a problem outrunning z's - check [terrorviktor] post above. :j
i agree it happens to me every now and again.. its a pain in my ass, its that jumping animation! i personaly think they sould make them slower, but have millions of them

Like people said, run with your weapons down, or bouble tap w to sprint, even with weapons up, by bouble tapping the w will lowwer the weapon by it self.

they don't out run you - just destroit side step while you're runnin away confuses the heck out of them.


Serpentine! Serpentine!

You can just simply turn around and kill them.

I was a fresh spawn and I had no problem keepuing them off of me while running. Several of them running and leaping and lunging at me.

they are not too fast

they are pretty stupid,

they are easily outwitted.

people just need to use their brains.


and what is it with fists up running faster? I have nerver run faster with my fists up ever.

First of all, if a new spawn can't outrun z's he's doing something wrong.
Second, the current z's are just place holders... and seriously not that much of a problem right now - it will get much worse later when they populate the map with the updated z's.
I've new spawned several times in the last week and had no problem outrunning or killing them with my fists if needed.
The key right now while they are building the game is Practice, Practice and Practice.
As I've said before - live and learn... die and start over - learn a little more and live longer... die and start over - rinse and repeat. :j
