Zombies and Crooks

[Spaghetti Cat]

Did a quick search and couldn't find anything, forgive me if this has already been proposed...

 

So I had this idea in the shower this morning (eww gross I know sorry) that combined the zombie free mode games with a mission like Cops & Crooks. It goes like this...one team of survivors (the crooks) must escape the island while the zombies (cops) chase them. The objective, either a boat or chopper, is the only way out of the city.

 

Mode-All for One:The boss is marked with a crosshair on the map, if he dies the game is over. There is a chance that the other crooks can be infected. When this happens the infected crook goes after the boss.

 

Weapons-Shotguns:This point is key: cops only use knives or fists!!! Zombies can't use guns, only the survivors can. Shotguns seem to be keeping with the horror movie tradition, but the survivors want to go for headshots if at all possible. If everyone agrees, spend a few moments collecting guns then meet up. The cops could get vests to make them more damage-resistant, and making the headshot all the more key. The zombies can infect a survivor by damaging them with a knife or fists.

 

Players-6 to 16: What made me think of this is all the imbalanced Cops & Crooks games I've played. The idea is that the zombies should outnumber the survivors. Minimum of 6 players, 2 crooks, 4 cops. Larger groups can add more crooks, but they must always be outnumbered by cops. If the zombies damages a survivor, then the crook must stop and let the cops attack him. This will let the boss know that one of his teammates is infected. He'll see, Mr X killed Mr Y on his screen. The boss must make it to the checkpoint, with or without his teammates, to survive.

 

Settings-Auto-aim: On. This will help the zombies target you better...unless I'm totally wrong on that one, never fought anyone hand-to-hand before with it off. Friendly Fire: On. Has to be if/when the crooks become infected. Respawn: 5 seconds seems good. Player name: It's up to you. Time of Day: Midnight!!!

 

The idea is to be chased on foot, always running from the zombies. Now obviously this would suck if you spawn at the mansion in Northern Alderney and the objective is in the refinery. Some of the smaller maps like bohan or the ones in hove beach seem ideal, but it just depends on how much you want to run. Which is another thing, I had the notion that only the cops could sprint, limiting the crooks sprint to jumping a fence or roof. It's just a thought though, nothing concrete.

 

This is a survival/horror based game, so money should be no object to the other players.

 

I welcome any and all comments, just be kind and rewind!
