Title: More efficient melee for ZS.
Post by: Supertoaster on December 05, 2010, 10:44:21 PM
I believe the melee weapons are to unbalanced and slow, In RL I swung some items similar to the ZS weapons and most were faster, here is a list of weapons I think could be improved

Axe - Way to slow, we have a spare axe about the same size (larger maybe) IRL and I tried to swing it as fast as I could, (and i'm not very strong) but it was much faster then it is atm

Plank could be more powerful.

Knife could do more damage.

the carpenters hammer is WAY to slow, I swung a fairly large hammer I had in my garage and it was faster.

Please consider.

They seem pretty balanced to me

If you want better weapons play zs_chambers

Dude what?
Axe too slow?
It does great damage and its fast enough...
...making them faster would be stupid.
Plank should be more powerful?
Come on man, what do you expect? It's a little plank. You can hit fast and deal low damage.
Knife is good as it is.
It does 40+ damage to zombie if you hit him in the head.
Carpenter hammer is for making cades, not for killing zombies.

My point is that melee guns are good as they are right now and
why do you compare real life with a computer game?

Just because you suck with the melee weapons, doesn't mean they're bad ...
The only bad one is the plank.

Plank should be removed, unless an alternate attack was added (like hammer>nails).

I also think the knife should deal a bit more damage. It has an extremely short attack distance, and should desl extra damage to compensate.

The axe is a bit slow IMO, but its to keep the game balanced.

Hammer is fine since its primary use is barricading.

I agreed.That plank should be removed or add more damage.I always spawn with that noob melee all the time -__-

Go and try to kill a zombie in real life with a knife and then tell me that this knife should do more damage.

ARGUMENT INVALID: Implies that you have previous experience killing zombies with knives.

Yeah it does require lots of skills, just hide in a corner then wait for the zombie to move then back stab.
  :gtfo:

On-topic: Only knife or plank needs change, too low damage.

Yeah! Knife and plank need moar dmg! It's almost as if the developers of the game intended for there to be some kind of variety and favorability among the melee weapons! Needz fix.

I may not play ZS, but I know that in the event of a zombie apocalypse, an Axe will definitely perform much better than a knife or plank of wood ANY FUCKING DAY.

That's like saying "Pistol in TTT doesn't do nuff damage. Needs 2 shot headshot."

Tiny probably spends more time trolling/raging at other players than anything else.

P.S Pistol is good weapon. It's non-automatic and small

You do realize you DON'T get to choose what you spawn with, right?

Yes, but you won't have a melee weapon unless you find one randomly on the ground.

All I would say is to remove the plank, you cant do anything with it, but all the other weapons, whether better or worse, just keep them. It gives the gamemode more weapon variety.
