Hey , everything in the title , when you join a zombie server , you want to find NPC zombies (with privilages) or a normal zombie player ? thanks.

NPC, Its fun to kill zombies with other people, until there's only one left

[Mauzen]

Player zombies alone are lame, because players cant be zombies, they are too intelligent. NPC zombies alone are better, but often their AI is weak because they are hard to control on big maps.
So why not do both? With some simple AI you could create troops of NPC zombies that are lead by a single player zombie.

lol Yea , I think no one want to be a zombie with no weapons the first time he spawn the server, so NPC can be useful

Nice idea man !
the easiest way in my opinion is to spawn them in radius of players (5meters) then make them teleporting to him ...

thank you both other opinions?

I agree with this. NPC is better.

Both.

NPC of course, it's freaking boring playing as zombie, but I'd think about superior zombies which are players but different from other NPC zombies. I think both together would work. BUT still, there will be problems caused by players who doesn't attack each other...

[freddy smyth]

I think player zombies make it too unfair since it is hard to compete with lag. They do make for more interesting duels though. The other problems are that there are never enough player zombies and people get bored of being a zombie.

I'd agree though. Some sort of mix of the two would work well.
