Zombie fall damage

[vgifford]

Just watched a video on YouTube by Cap00. Let me get this straight, the devs have nerfed fall damage to a maximum of 33% of the zombies HP. A fall of 50 blocks wont kill a zombie. So basically ANY strategies we used to beat the zombies in the past, no longer work. With the latest patch they took reinforced steel away from us, and the zombies get teamwork bonuses on destroying blocks. OK devs. How ARE we supposed to make a secure base now? Whats the point of playing if EVERYTHING is stacked against us?

You dont need to have a bedrock pit to have a secure base.

Whats secure when they take the strongest material in the game away, and give the zombies the ability to multiply their damage vs blocks when working together? Alpha 17 is just stacked against the players, make us weaker and the zombies stronger. Yeah real entertaining and enjoyable.

Game is supposed to be challenging, not easymode like it was in the previous alphas, time to get out of the bubble and start to SURVIVE for real, not just hiding in base.

The game used to be challenging but survivable. If all the updates are going to do is make us weaker, and them stronger whats the point? Why put building in the game if everything you build they can rip apart in 2 minutes? Take the strongest blocks away, nerf our stamina. The game isnt enjoyable if you cant progress. Real fun, build, die, build, die. Should just name this game, You are going to die. If you cant survive in a survival game, why try? I'm feeling like I wasted my money now. Dont waste your time trying, your gonig to loose. Everything has been stacked against you.

Until now i know 5-6 ways to survive the hordenight and 4-5 of them which will do nearly no damage to your base

[vgifford]

Not sure what you are trying to show Priest. Are they ripping it apart?

hey are now so intelligent that you can use that against them

[I can't spell]

A silly wood ramp makes the zombies hop up, fall down, then go back around to do it again. They are freaking stupid! You have nothing to worry about.... ever.

Yeah I see the God gun too. Anyone can build anything in creative or with DM and CM

Doesnt matter if they fall, they nerfed the fall damage. They can survive a 50 block fall now.

Not if they fall 10x 8 blocks
after they fall they again try to reach you.
And they are are stupid enough to do it the same way


and again btw
if you give them no path to go the defense can stand a night

and the stairs, well lets name them "Stairs of Doom"

falling repeatedly will do it, lol what a cheesy defense, is it even fun to just stand there all night? What about vultures and spitters?

AK and/or a Turret on the roof
You really want to kill Cops too

The whole update just seems geared towards weakening the players and what they can do, while over powering the zombies to the point that they can destroy everything.
