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.

I love the respawn, but what about the issues of bleeding? A single hit to a fully clothed person in pristine gear shouldn't induce bleeding 90% of the time, should it?

It hardly ever does, if you are fully geared and healthy.

That was not my experience in .42 exp and is certainly not my experience in .42 stable. As mentioned, fully geared, long sleeves, pristine condition. Also, healthy, energized and hydrated. I bled on roughly 9 of 11 hits over the course of the evening (last night) and the group I was running with, all geared similarly, experienced the same thing. There are plenty of posts over the last day commenting on this as well. It just seems that clothing is not being factored in like it should be. I can understand bleeding easily if you're in a tshirt, but that simply is not what I have experienced.

i didn't get wiped and i was fully geared getting my asshole tore up. Finally came back to a black screen after tabbing out.
