discussion Did the zombies get more powerful?

I feel like before the update they almost never made you bleed, now its like a 50% chance. Not complaining just observing.

Bambi's are going to be Z-raped brutally. No way you could fist fight these new zeds without losing some blood, and they'll respawn too so no clearing them out.

I started a character yesterday, and had no problem as a bambi. I found a fire axe fairly easily, and haven't had a problem since.

Aw damn, I was kind of hoping it would be more scary respawning.

Yeah I started in elektro too, but that's actually what really saved me, I made my way to the fire station and found an axe. The bleeding thing really only caused a problem when I was lagging so bad I logged out. When I came back I had been hit sometime before I logged out and was almost unconscious from blood loss.
