Zombie kids

[oCTOPUS sQUID]

You think they'll bring em back? I hope so because it adds immersion but I don't think TornBanner has the balls.

50/50 - right now if you data mine the game you can find "apparently" some things related to zombie children like blueprints , something AI related, a wwise audio with the name Zombieage_child but i dont know what exactly it is . This could be easily things from the old build (2022) so don't get your hopes up

i hope not tbh

They should be back. That's the identity of the original to differentiate most zombie games nowadays. Otherwise it's just a generic zombie game at most lol. I dunno it's up to Torn if they respect the original sauce of Maxx's vision with the other missing UE4 features.

I was gonna make a rant about Torn Banner for not having the balls, but then I revisited a stream they did in June last year, Maxx was asked about zombie children, he said not in EA, and at the same time, he clarified this in Discord by saying " for ea launch I said, for clarification" so yeah im more confident they will be added back maybe in 1.0

Hopefully he stands by his word along with the other stuff missing! None of my friends will buy this game until tons of these things return.

[Willipunsch]

[𝚂𝔞𝔱𝔞𝔫]

And we are also clear that we want those lil brats

[KashiiCo]

Nah fam

[H0STILE]

too many snowflakes to add them back unfortunately

[Igrom4nru]

Tbh I don't care, if they add back zombie kids or not.
I just want more variety of zombies.
If they want to reach a wider audience and not for the game to die after a year, they need to come up with new concepts and not stick to the decades old ones.
NMRiH 1 still exists, it's free and it has half of the players count of NMRiH 2 at the moment I write this comment. 431 ingame, vs 747 for NMRiH2.
NMRiH2 has probably 2x or 3x duo to crossplay, no idea if NMRiH1 has crossplay, but beside of that it speaks for itself.

Maybe teenage zombies instead?
Zombie kids have very low hitboxes I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate it lol.

[Willipunsch]

the small hitboxes in combination with a fast movement is exactly what was so cool and scary about the undead kids. Just dead kids for the sake of a grim and edgy atmosphere wouldnt be enough.
