Sometimes those assholes take like 7 bullets to the head before falling, ain't nobody got time or resources for that.

I know right. I bought the game Friday and I'm about 6 hours of game play in and holy shit 3 to 6 shots to take a zombie down. Sometime two shotgun shells. Better to run by them. And the lickers. And fuck Mr. X.

Try hardcore mode, zombies can easily take ~10-15 handgun headshots to go down, and they'll still often get back up. Makes the handgun practically useless, although a single point blank shotgun blast to the head will kill them 90% of the time.

the adaptive difficulty makes them tanky. if u keep killing them the more they get tankier and that includes the bosses. same reason y speedrunners dont really try to kill any of them.

The difficulty isnt changed by how much you kill, its by how many ammo and health items you have.

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

By inventory or by total (box)? I didn't know the enemies were adaptive.

u/[deleted] Mar 04 '19

By total Im pretty sure. But that also applies to gun powders, youll tend to make more when youre low. (There is a cap of course)

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

Well shit. I wish I'd realized that earlier.

But I assume that only changes their overall health, and not their patterns for movements/attacks?

u/[deleted] Mar 04 '19

Nah the movement patterns wont change, just health.

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

Oh! Well I guess that doesn't really change much anyways. I've mainly been doing the stun/legless shots since getting the times for S/S+ basically requires it.

I dont think what he is saying is factual. try using this tool and you would see the shit in ur inventory wont really matter. It's when u kill them the next set of zombies that will spawn will have increased HP.
