Zombie mode is an own developed gameplay by MYT-YARM and the point is to make the game as fun as possible.
The gameplay is for the most ruled on rush maps but will sometimes also be played in the gamemode "Conquest".
Following content is to increase your understanding of the gametype:
- Zombies are always attacking.
- Humans are always defending.
- The Zombies might be of an higher amount than the humans but be aware of that zombies can only use knives.
- Humans can use weapons but they will still be fewer than the zombies.
- Zombies are just as normal, capturing bases, but notice that if you kill a zombie he'll automatically change team to humans and be able to use weapons.
- As earlier explained humans are allowed to use weapons while zombies are not. Please, do not kill yourself as zombie to get to the other team.
- A zombie who kills with any other weapon than his knife will first get warned by getting auto killed. Second time he'll be thrown out of the server.
- Also, be aware of the server chat. You may sometimes see the message "YOU'RE A HUMAN AND CAN SHOOT" occur in the chat. This means that you are allowed to shoot since you have been transformed to a human.
- The message "YOU'RE A ZOMBIE - ONLY KNIFE" tells you that you have been transformed to a zombie and will only be allowed to use your knife.
- There will be about 3 zombies on 1 person.
For an example:
10 zombies against 3 humans
14 zombies against 4 humans
6 zombies against 2 humans
This is the basic rules and information (structure) of the gamemode. To make it as good as possible we hope you all understand the gamemode to avoid mistakes or bad knowledge. Any questions will of course be welcome on the forum.
Notice that the gamemode still be in a BETA version and therefore there might become some mistakes or bugs while playing. Also be aware of that the most is controlled automatically but some parts needs to be controlled manually. Therefore please play with patience, the administrators are doing as much as they can to make the system work properly. The balance could also be failed sometimes.
As an example of a well-known bug: You are playing as a brave human and killing zombies but suddenly you just get switched to the zombie team without dying. This is due to the autobalance takes control and switches one of more players to the other team. In such situations the administrators tries to move the players with the lowest playtime. Please, understand that we are trying to the best for everyone to make it as fair as possible.
Balance problems could also occur while the server is full.
The zombie rush mode will be played each Friday but can also be voted on the server by players at other times.
Notice: This gamemode is made to be fun, not to get good stats. Very important is also that you should try to avoid getting the points neutralized or captured all the time to remain the fun of the game. This will be automatically solved if you don't camp and start fighting. Also do your best and try to defuse the charged M-com stations. Please do not try to break the rules for a better stats since this might ruin the gameplay for others.
Play fair and have fun!
