Description


An edited version of OKKG’s “More Commons Over Time” tailored for the Terror Z Overhaul.




This mod is designed to work with the complete Terror Z collection, a realism-focused military horror overhaul built for immersive and brutal gameplay.

  • Customized AI Director with dynamic scripting and overwhelming hordes
  • Fight as all 8 survivors using the United We Stand mutation
  • Enhanced AI: Human-like Survivors and Special Infected behavior
  • Realistic visuals and immersive audio enhancements
  • Optimized mod list to ensure smooth, crash-free experience

For campaigns and maps tested / verified to run on apocalypse mode, see Optional Mods.



What Is This?

Apocalypse Mode is the most brutal and intense version of the Terror Z Hordes script series. This is the full experience which pushes the AI Director to its absolute limits — starting with a Common Infected limit of 30 and dynamically scaling up to 70 as the match progresses.

With enormous panic events, finale waves of up to 240 zombies, and near-constant pressure, this mode delivers a fully cinematic apocalypse designed for tactical endurance and elite coordination.

This script is optimized to prevent lag and crashes during gameplay. Large RAM-intensive custom maps may experience lag or crashes using this mode.



Features

  • Gradually increases the Common Limit from 30 → 70 every 3 seconds once players leave the saferoom
  • Massive wandering mobs with 140+ zombies
  • Crescendo / Finale hordes with 250+ zombies (per wave)
  • Special Infected, Tanks, and Mobs can spawn simultaneously
  • Balanced for 1 human + 7 mod-enhanced bots or full 8-player teams
  • Tuned for a gritty military-sim experience inspired by World War Z
  • Optimized to prevent lag / crashes



Difficulty Level

This is the Apocalypse Mode version of Terror Z's dynamic horde scripts:

  • The most chaotic and unforgiving version available
  • Maximum horde sizes with minimal downtime
  • Built for players who want full-pressure pacing and a cinematic apocalypse



Too Intense / Crashing?

It makes sense, I will take it into account, thank you.

You can pair this mod with the increased specials limit if you're playing on vanilla.

I've optimized this script for my collection which has custom models and assets, so a higher special infected limit could push the RAM limit and cause lag / crashes.

Hello! Would this mod be as intense as using these mods together? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3026544729&searchtext=increase+common+infected+zombies https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3445384305&searchtext=Specials+Limit+12+%5B+FIXED+%5D https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3439277068&searchtext=Special+Infected+Attacking+More+Frequently
I mean, I've used them to make it something similar to World War Z, plus it really starts intense as soon as you leave the safe room, I don't know if this mod will reach that level after a certain time, I don't see that it specifies the number of special infected that start and what the maximum is.
