So Creation Club for Skyrim is out and already false advertiseing
There's a mod on CC called Plague of the Dead that discribes itself as "In Skyrim when the sun falls the dead rise! Beat back the zombie hordes and retrieve valuable Mort Flesh"

As seen in this Vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRwjvzC3iQs

The mod is clearly missleading people with its discription "beat back the zombie hordes" and any reasonable person wouldnt call 3 zombies a hord of zombies, a pack of zombie maybe not to mention that they are just draugr reskins costing 400 credits and as the guy in the vid says he cant get a refund for what is clearly a missleading mod discription. Just another reason to hate Creation Club and Bethesda

Well therin is the problem.

Bethesda are using modders from the community and trying to keep them anonymous, because, let's face it.. the real hordes are all the angry customers wanting to metaphorically 'break down Bethesda's door' right now, in a hypotheitcal, metaphoric sense. (I'd hypothetically be in that imaginary crowd). See what I did there <wink>

The modder for CC and modding community is likely the same guy.

If Bethesda are using their mod then they are allowed to in the UELA.

"modders are entitled to claim their work as their own, but Bethesda has the right to use it."
Not exact quotes but an accurate interpretation and you can take my word for it that this is correct.

While I'm not condoning copying work and selling it on, I'm just stating that Bethesda can get away with this. I'm also not saying that it's acceptable. I think it's downright competetive and basically, Bethesda want to make CC, (that has paid mods), have everything that nexus mods, (free mods), has. What does that lead to? One can only wait and see...

Doesn't quite sound as exciting "beat back the trio of zombies".

If a trio = horde, wonder what they class the anti-cc.
OMG, I just watched the video... WOW AMAZING VALUE FOR MONEY ZOMBIE VOICE ACTING!!!! :D

Watch out for that Zombie Tea party...

Youtuber should have edited the Zombie voice into when he was reading the Journal at the end... "I have been waiting my entire life for this moment - eurghhhh "

Fanboy mode enabled

That should be at least 400 cc per zombie.

The hordes happen as random encounters at night
euuuughhhhh

In my game it's going to piss me off something rotten, especially after I paid for "HORDES"

and only got the same as a handful of Bandits. So it's paying money for Bandits with their flesh missing and going 'eeurghhhhhh' at you constantly.

What I would do personally is uninstall mod...

reload clean save,

leave comment on modders feedback suggesting they add more zombies rather than 3-5 NPC's and create more dialogue voices than one single sound file repeated over and over.



Euuuughhherghhhhhh. nooooooo... that's right, I would have paid money to Bethesda here... can I uninstall mod? Do I get my money back? Is there a way to leave feedback on how ♥♥♥♥♥ the mod is?

I often talk out loud to myself in all kinds of funny voices while playing the game. You see youtubers doing it too..

A mod that costs money has to at least be better than doing it yourself LOL!!!

Could one of the very talented modders create a better mod and put it on the Nexus overnight?

Would they be requested to take it down because it copies the paid mod?

I was thinking occassionally a horde of 20-30 zombies spawn near certain caves/ barrows and start shufflling down a road towards a city. They have half the health but hit just as hard as a normal enemy. They walk 75% slower than normal enemies.
You can just avoid them but better to kill them to protect other npcs. Think walking dead.
They say eererrrrg, uuuarrrg AND Aaeeeuurrrg.

Sorry in advance for pouring gasolene everywhere, but:

What if Bethesda start saying; "We've decided not to support 3rd party modding because we feel that it causes the game to be unstable for users".

I mean, one can do anything in this world now; Charge money for weapons which you should already have the choice to buy from an in game vendor without having to pay the producer money again to do, in a game that you already paid them for...
  • Base game,
  • DLC
  • Game of the year
  • Mods
  • compulsory advertizing in your game (thanks to modding community we can remove this now)
(already addressed thanks to community feedback, but would have stayed if we didn't tell Bethesda and make mods to remove it):
  • compulsory updates that are only related to the marketplace
  • downloaded and constantly increased data onto your hard drive that you didn't want nor ask for

I do remember a mod that existed that had something like this, but it was actually a mod that spawned like... A handful of draugr with custom stats... Sounds like something like this paid mod as well actually...

So yeah, a mod that actually makes real zombie threats? Sounds good to me and I would be all over that.

I would not be surprised if things turned out this way. When money is on the board of discussion, anything is possible... Even the worst things.

The description did say they would appear in certain locations at night. Has anyone yet confirmed if this is true and where it is supposed to happen?

I suppose the "certain locations" are any location random encounters can happen, so far i only found them on these places

while i aggree that you cant call what the content offers "hordes of zombies" this and many other youtuber has either a seriouse bug or has not put enought effort into the test of the content.

You dont get just that 3 zombies and the spells to summon them during that 1 quest, zombies also spawn at night as random encounters, someone in an other discussion saw a group of 8 zombies attacking a imperial legion camp for example, according to people who bought the content zombie encounters work similar to vampire encounters.

If you fast travel you probably never come accross such a random encounter, you have to walk through the world by yourselfe to meet them.
