The Sprinters

[Pre-Soiled Pants]

Am I the only one who thinks the sprinter's hit range is crazy? like you could be kind of far from them and some how they hit you. Leaving you saying "wtf"

[yarrrr]

Singleplayer or multiplayer?

[Dancefloor Degrader]

In multiplayer, insane range is normal. Learn to circlestrafe.

Wish I could say that was wrong this coupled with the fact you have to sprint to get way from them annoys the hell out of me you literly CANT melee them without getting hit their range is SO huge its seriousyl ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ esp since zombies only stop chasing if you leave the area completly

[BlackWaterGaming]

i your getting it from far away your prolly lagging on the server your on.

[Samz]

No the servers got no lag otherwise

may not look like lag but your prolly are. wat you see on your screen is behind wat the server sees by a few seconds. so the zombie thats hitting you from far away is actually on top of u.

[Samz]

No its not
No other zombie hits me form that distance They clearly have further range and its not fair at all They are total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and Im actually starting to hate the game since they were put in since most of my newspawn deaths come from attracting these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and not being able to get away since I cant run from them (since they run faster than you) and I cant melee them without a weapon)

It is mostly because of the lag, like BlackWater said. Even when I host a server on the same machine that I play on, I get a couple of dozen miliseconds. A non-LAN server will have at least a little more. This 50 miliseconds or so is a large gap when the sprinters are moving so fast.

Try them on singleplayer, and you'll see the difference.

IF it was lag wouldnt the other zombies hit me from a further distance? they hit me at the same distance and ive esp noticed this when im being chased by sprinters

Yes, there will still be lag, but it won't be as noticable because of the speed they're moving. Because the sprinters are moving so fast, even a 50 milisecond lag allows them to "move" alot within that time frame.

Sprinters actually have a normal range its just the normal set lag that everyone experiences that makes zombies move first then a few moments later it moves on your screen same goes with you if you press a button and move.its first shown on your screen but on anothers screen you will still be in the same spot because the server did not receive the signal on time this is why you get shot behind walls and zombies hit you from long ranges

[Minoxidilson Dutasterido]

use a machete or katana,their melee range are the fartest of the game

I just don't like bleeding.
