Are the showy zombies really necessary?
I recognize the high likelyhood that I'll be in the minority here, but I still feel like an opinion should be voiced regarding this aspect of the game. Is it really necessary for most of the female zombies to be wearing such showy clothing? I'm not trying to sound like a prude of anything, but I've only found one model that seems properly dressed. The rest of the females are wearing either mini skirts or extremely deep v-necks in order to show off their breasts which look as if they have even had implants sometime before their zombification.

I understand the need to appeal to your audience, but I feel as if The Fun Pimps went a tad too far with this and stepped into the realm of absurdity. Even the playable female character is wearing a crop top to show off some skin. Granted that's a relatively minor thing, but it's overshadowed by the fact that almost every other female model you see in the game is sexualized in some way.

Overall it's a pretty minor thing, I know, but it's enough to make me feel uncomfortable playing the game around my wife, because at some points when I'm cornered and have a zombie in my face trying to show me as much cleavage as possible I almost feel as though I'm playing some twisted erotica game. I understand that most of the player base may be fine with this, but I just wanted to get my thoughts out there in case other players felt the same. Please do not confuse my thread with one that is bashing the game in some way. There is a reason why I backed 7 Days to Die on Kickstarter. I wanted a fun survival game to play, and that's what I received. It's just that I also received excessive amounts of zombie cleavage at the same time.

Also, I know that there is a male zombie that is wearing just breifs, but that's more of a humorous addition to the game than anything. Even a woman wearing just a bra and panties would be fine to match him. Not everyone can be caught turning into a zombie looking their best, but I don't need to see zombie nurses and cheerleaders wearing skimpy clothes trying to rip me to shreds.

Update: The responses that I've seen so far aren't really surprising. They make me sad really. Let me clarify a few things though. I do not appreciate anyone belittling my wife. My thoughts and opinions posted here are completely independent from hers. I am not offended that the female characters in this game are wearing next to nothing. I am not going to write to Obama, Tony Abbot, or Vladamir Putin because I feel as though the children are going to be corrupted because of women's portrayal in a video game. I am, though, uncomfortable with the way they are being shown.

I can only hope that one day we will see a bit less sexism in games than what is being shown here.

I just hope theres an option to Mod them later. I hate how silly some of the zombies look. Kills the atmosphere of the game for me.
You could always mod the textures now. Probably the model/meshes as well, but I've not looked to deeply into that. All of it is in resources.assets which can be opened with Grim's Unity Asset Editor[7daystodie.com]. As far as I know the only public texture mod is the Grim's Happy Spider[7daystodie.com] for the Spider Zombie.

While there is a Modding forum here on Steam, there is far more activity for modding this game on the Main Site's Modding[7daystodie.com] Forum.

I don't mind discussing the lady z models, I just don't want a few puritans to take away the fun for the rest of the people that enjoy seeing a little cleavage in their zombie acpocalyptic world. I get enough prudishness in real life...

All the zombie models are being redone. Almost all of the models and textures are placeholder assets. And the ragdoll physics are being redone as well following A8+. What is present now doesn't represent how the game will look moving forward.

Also, the notion of being uncomfortable in the presense of simulated cleavage...no offense, but that seems like an oddly juvenile sentiment for an adult married man to have in this day and age. Maybe if you spoke to your wife about it you'd find there isn't really much of an issue given the context of the game and the current state its in.

Yea its not about being prude, there is an excesive amount of sexualization of women in almost every game. Pimps should grow up a little bit and and change the models cause fake tits and mini skirts are the last thing im thinking about when shooting zombies .

...

This game doesn't have women wearing metal thongs and bras calling it "plate armor" - that's your "fantasy" style game settings.

You go on about this as if it's some kind of wrongness about a skirt while some guy is running around wearing brief style underwear as his only apparel - as in women being sexualized? ...

As for the rest - seriously; are you and your wife islamic? I mean do you think women's bodies should be covered at all times in some kind of robe with veils and such?

- They include female zombies in the game as hostiles capable of ripping your head off.
- They set them in outfits that can be seen as distinct and different at great distances while being recognized as female models.
- The female zombies have their bodies covered *MORE* than the male zombies do.
- the 3 female models - 1 has short hair, one has mid-length hair while the 3rd has most of their hair covered.
- Brest sizes are hard to tell - of course I'll take your word for the fake tits gig being as that's something you seem to be focusing on in a zombie game.

You are coming across as one hell of a twisted person "seeking" any excuse to pan on this topic.

Seriously - get the ♥♥♥♥ over it.

I don't think boobs and cleavage is as much of an issue as the obvious difference between the sexes. The gals are looking like bimbos while the male ones are looking.. plain and ordinary. Possibly not the lumber guy.

True, those women look like they are in need of a PIMP... yeah... wouldn't expect that from a company called THE FUN PIMPS. Yeah... very ackward. Amazing even...

How so?

Several of the male zombies tend to limp while the women don't but there are only 4 female models in the game - 3 in skirts, 1 (snow biome) dressed "warmly". The early male models that don't limp seem to use the same head movement as the female models.

Expression wise - most of the guys have what lips remain pulled back across their teeth but if you look at that cheerleader...

The most "bimbo"/ding-bat style look; I'd put that on the "infected lady" more than the others and she simply seems to have a "complete" face with neutral expression (like the spider zombie). The "infected survivor" male model looks to use the same head movement of the infected lady model - just with a different expression.

To make head-shots tougher, the heads need to move around in some fashion so the limp from some of the male models is used or that tilt back and forth - then the snow zombes - male and female - don't use that. Their heads move more up and down as they take those high-steps.

While running is enabled, all of them move fast and smooth so head-shots are actually easier if they're coming in from a distance - no matter what. (only the spider zombie is radically different running vs walking for where one should aim)

It's like the "circling bush/tree" and random turns while they move. This costs me more missed shots than just the head bobbling being as it's hard to predict while they are walking. You can't tell if they are coming in a straight path or going to pull a "crazy ivan" type looping walk.

Okay, where are all of the overweight redneck women with curlers and missing teeth running around in a trashy nightgown and carrying a pinroller? I mean, its not like they're showing nipples & trim here.

If they add the Workshop to this game, I'll model some for ya... along with a bunch of others I have ideas for.

I think we all have to just keep in mind of the obvious:

#1 - It's an Alpha and

#2 - In relation to #1, these current models are most likely placeholders until they get more detailed and more varietied models out the wood works.

Will there be more TnA in the new models?

Who knows??

But I'm sure there will eventually be enough variety in the new additions that the ones that some here seem to have some issues with will be a minority in the selection.

I don't even notice anything "Suggestive" in the female models as I'm too busy focusing on how to keep them away from me and my stuff...... if they get toned down a bit in their "Suggestiveness" it's not a big deal, but I don't like the idea of them being toned down for reasons of people simply "Feeling" uncomfortable in seeing some cleavage.

Females exist on this planet, they have boobs..... and cleavage is a part of those boobs.... and a tonne of women these days around the world will wear clothing that reveals cleavage.

This isn't the 1950's anymore.

You silly Americans need to get with the times :P (jk)
