since when can zombies use ladders?

[GIGA_NIGGA_9000]

It just baffles me why this is a thing, Zombies are not that intelligent

[MattLikesGaming]

Always have been able to if you leave the last ladder part on the ground.

[Rowdy Ronny]

Yeah, but ladders are seen as stairs to the AI, I think they missed this small thing. :)

Come back in beta and report it or ;

Place a chair on top of it.
Or craft a hatch.
Or craft a few ladders so you can remove/replace them.
Or just place a wood frame on top of it.
Or... well whatever you would do when you are in a zombie apocalypse and 'THE MOVIE LIED!"

I think they should be able to use ladders, always been fine with me. No really good arguement could be made why they shouldn't or couldn't use a ladder. Except maybe saying, "Oh they don't climb ladders in movies or TV."

Same way as pretty much every animal that ever existed that had to get from point A to point B, they use the environment.
Also one could argue that because they used to be humans they've retained some amount of intellect/skills/memories.

[M.B.M Industries]

They should only be able to climb ladders in feral mode. The way they float up the ladders it would be better if they could not climb them at all untill they add an animation in for it and lower the speed.

From a gameplay standpoint, if Z couldn't climb ladder, you could build a fortress with a bunch of sticks and wood.
As for the lore question... well Z doesn't exist IRL, so it's up to the creator imagination to say what they can, and can't do.

On a side note, it doesn't take a superior intelligence to use ladders. Pretty much every animal that are physically able to do so, do it. Even hamsters climb on their cage wall, as if it was a ladder. Heck, when I was a kid, I had them hang on the cage roof for sport. Or fun, or whatever reason they did that.

[Johnman]

Zombies know how to put one foot in from of the other to get from A to B. A crawler can crawl when he doesn't have the ability of using his legs. Explain to me why it's so difficult for a zombie to climb a ladder or some other obstacle. It has the ability to use those muscles. It's not mathmatics, it's pretty simple ♥♥♥♥.

Their goals :
* Eat the flesh or brain of a human.
Their danger :
* They carry a disease, trying to bite you.
* They don't sleep so they move around day and night.

Their weak points :
* Destroy the brain and they are really dead. Or at least no longer to move.


Exceptions :
* Depends on the lore and usually they get extremely intelligent, emotional, fast, unkillable depending on what the script needs thus totally destroying the original story for today's almost braindead generation. The CDC puts a lot effort in preparedness because one or two generations further there will be zombies.

I usually just knock out the lowest ladder section on the ground and then for an added measure just put a hatch on the top. The missing section usually stops them but the hatch is the insurance in case they start hopping on the crawlers and get a foothold. As far as the intellegence aspect, hey its a game with zombies....ummm reality, nope.

Explain to us all what the zombies capbilities are as firmly proven wiht your real life expereinces with zombies (or your family and freinds)? LOL

[Blue]

I think the real question is...how do zombie cops keep their hats on?

[YamaKami]

Spider zombies do not even need ladders. They are not a new mob type either. The reason zombies in the game can climb ladders though is TFP does not want you to make a base that is 100% zombie proof.

That and who ran around giving all the fat ones with Hawaiian shirts on super wedgies? Someone is a brave prankster indeed. XD

+1 It's not that hard to understand.

hah and everyone hates zombie dogs. How did the virus even get to the dog? they're running on a different OS! And why are rabbits, deer and bears not infected? Yes, I would want to have a zombie bear so we can have more threads of [PLZ REMOVE ZOMBIE BEARS, DOGS, DEER AND RABBITS]

On a serious note, why is one of the zombies called "Infected Survivor?"
Does not make sense, just like not able to go through 1x1 blocks.
