Zombies run even on everything set to walk.

[King Caesar]

So this happens every time I knock one down. It stands up and no matter what time of day, it just halls ass straight at me and smacks me. I prefer traditional zombies. As in walkers, not into the Dawn Of The Dead remake style ones. It's fine if you prefer it the other way, but if I set it to walk, they should walk.

Edit: Okay since some of you people think I mean rage. I don't. I keep getting a bug were they don't stop running, smacking me till I'm dead. If you would look I've owned the game since like 2020. I know about rage. I tried turning walking on and it still happens. I'm on Nomad btw. No reason for a bug like this. It never happened before this update to me.

just saw the female zombie with bob cut and jean shorts do an inverse exorcist. head stayed looking forward and her body did a full 360 rotation as she "raged" at me. great mechanic

Lmao yes saw that too in my game. Zombies tend to do that occassionally.

It's pretty hilarious.

I also love the insta dodges they sometimes do when their ai decides to "crouch attack" for a moment when fighting despite there being no obsticles in the area that would force them to crouch.

I swing at the zombie's head - it ducks and slaps me in the ankle.
"Oh you cheeky sonofa...."

Have you tried to turn around and then hit the sprint button to not get smacked ? Try it, it works.

My issue is they don't stop running after they get back up. You guys are assuming I'm talking about rage when I keep getting a bug. I literally ran till I was out of stamina on multiple occasions now and they keep running at me. Also the hit has always been buggy. They jump up and before they even finish the animation I get hit from a attack they never did. That's been that way since like IDK 3 years ago when I bought this?

The chance of them rage attacking is based on difficulty settings. Play on easiest and there's zero chance of it happening IIRC.

Playing survivor (easiest) and they do it, along with the tuck, twist and roll move. I personally like it, keeps it interesting. I use almost strictly the baton, I like the "oh ****" moment when I think I've finally crowd controlled the zombie clan and 2 of them decide to twist and run. But that's me.

Lowest setting is scavenger. Survivalist is second highest difficulty.

If you did a fully clean install, and are not using any mods, then you should take a short video of it, and report a bug. I've never seen what you describe before (7000 hours of play)

Yes, and this post explains what each does including the rage percentages. As expected from TFP the zombie rage chance is a linear 0/20/40/60/80/100 percent progression.

I disagree. Is it not "cheap" to just keep slapping the zombies after you knock them down once? Just go up to them, knock them down, and then absolutely obliterate them while they're on the ground. The rage mode adds a nice difficulty to plain daywalkers, cause otherwise they are so incredibly easy to kill with 0 challenge. Just hit, back up, hit, back up. Now they can run a bit after getting up and catch you off guard, which is exactly what a combat like this needs. It's not a "cheat", it's just something else you need to keep an eye out for.

see, thats the thing... easy... but if you are in a lame poi that spawns them right behind ya after you saw the room empty you went through the room empty.. and poof antigravity teleporting zambinos and you are forced deeper into a poi that dont always work for ya on that strat... i agree with ya they are easy but when ya game stage gets higher and ya deal with rads, ferals, and the heavy hitter zambies.. hit step back hit dont always work even with them walking lol

Agree to disagree I guess. I think things like rage mode and the traps in POIs make this game actually interesting. Cause if you take stuff like that out of this game, I'm sorry but there isn't much going for it. If I wanted to play extra-safe where everything works exactly as I expect it to, I'd go play minecraft.
