Implemented Nerf Alpha Zombie

Recently, on infection alpha zombies were buffed from a sharpness 2 iron sword to a sharpness 4 iron sword, that is about as strong as a sharpness 3 diamond sword, if you ask me this is way to op. This means alpha zombies can kill an rct with 2 swings of their sword. I think this should be nerfed back to sharpness 2 or sharpness 3.

 

No support. I like the buff that the alpha zombies got.

 

Support. They nerfed high prestiged zombies cause 1 of them could take out dozens of humans alone. Then they buff Alpha zombies to do what they just tried preventing.

"1 step forward, 2 steps back"

Just make it so there's 3 alpha zombies again. With no buffs. Just 3 regular zombies as alphas. Like it was in the other versions of infection.

 

Support. Alpha zombies are better than the first 4 prestiges combined.

 

Support, super op especially when you get converted with humans next to you and you have the extra hearts .

 

No support. Alpha zombies balance out rank kits.

 

No support, alpha should have a better sword than a zombie with only a 3 kill streak or smth

 

No support it’s fine how it is, maybe nerf if it’s 3 zombies again.

 

yeah 3 zombs was good, less chance of having 1 afk alpha, which sucks

 

Support only if this is added

 

Why does this not show up as implemented? They changed it to sharp 3

 

I'd give my support if they made it into 3 Alphas. Having just 1 means that you'll have some games where the Alpha is AFK, and the sharp III sword not being used effectively at all for the whole map.

If 3 Alphas are implemented, however, they should not immediately spawn (when the game starts) with Resistance and a Gapple effect.

 

@popthingi do you want this closed since crew decie3d to make it s3 instead of s4, or do you want to keep it up cuz think it should be nerfed further?

 

Close it please, thanks

 

Thank you for submitting your suggestion. We have decided to implement this suggestion. The alpha spawns with a sharp3 sword now.

If you don't like this change, feel free to create another thread.

Thread moved to archives.
