20080218 Zombies Can No Longer Can Use Guns

ShadowScope 21:00, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion type
Flavor Change.

Suggestion scope
Zombies

Suggestion description
Currently, zombies can use guns by typing in the URL box a certain code. Thanks to swiers for finding this. It isn't a bug however, much as it is a small 'abuse' of how the game is currently coded.

Yes, I know. It takes a long time to actually search for the guns as a human being. I know swiers will not abuse this thing, and I know that it does not have harm.

But, I can tell you this. Zombies using guns are not flavorable at all, and it basically tells the whole world: "Hey dudes! Zombies are just as good as humans, only they're green!" Oh god, thanks for making Urban Dead even more of a mockery of the Zombie Apoc gerne than it already is.

Letting zombies use guns doesn't nerf harmans, nor does it buff zarmans. It's just plain stupid. Recode the game to take it out.

Keep Votes

  1. Keep/Bug It's a part of the game I want modified, so I'm voting Keep, which was fucking well obvious and there was no need to strike it except that Karek is a giant wanker that should fuck off and die, in pain, soon, with any luck. --Funt Solo QT Scotland flag.JPG 13:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  2. Keep/Bug - The dude speaks sense. It does need fixed. -- Cheese 21:29, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Keep/Bug - Fix it please. --PdeqTalk* 21:51, 18 February 2008 (UTC) changed my vote
    Keep/Bug - Wut? *wants to check this*--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 21:52, 18 February 2008 (UTC)unjustified vote struck--Karekmaps?! 13:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  3. Keep - Of course this needs to be fixed. --Ciaran Deckardson 22:04, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  4. Keep/Bug - Anyone who uses this is a cheater. --FXI 22:07, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  5. Fix Bug - Not fixing the bug would be very bad flavour, although I don't like the "better than" quip above. --Pgunn 22:08, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  6. Squish Bug - This is the kind of thing that's cool once, then needs to be gone forever. --Uncle Bill 22:10, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Quiet I think were being Bugged --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:19, 18 February 2008 (UTC)unjustified vote struck--Karekmaps?! 13:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  7. Pay fat person to sit on Bug- Because it's the most effective way.-Studoku 22:54, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Keep/Bug - --Jamie Cantwell3 00:00, 19 February 2008 (UTC)unjustified vote struck--Karekmaps?! 13:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  8. Keep - Or should I say kill the bug. I should be the only pest. -doc crook 00:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  9. RAID time Should be so!--Rofl. 00:23, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  10. EXTERMINATION - Call Kevan's Bug Service at 1-800-UDBUGS. --Hhal 00:33, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  11. Keep - Putting this in PR AND on the Bug page will make it that much more noticable to Kevan. --Heretic144 04:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  12. Keep/Bug - i think Kevan is aware of it, as it was posted in Bug Reports section... uh, 3 times now? making this change in form of suggestion is absolutely valid --~~~~ [talk] 11:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
    Keep - oh n0ez, teh zeds can use ma shotgunz!--CorndogheroT-S-Z 13:32, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill - Bub disagrees with you. --Themanwhocares4 22:22, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Huh. Didn't know. Still, a bit iffy on the practice, and I still don't see it as flavorable in most zed movies.--ShadowScope 03:11, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  2. Bug - W 11:56, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  3. Not a bug - That's a feature. --Aeon17x 12:16, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  4. Kill - I'm beginning to think it's an intended feature...although Survivors should gain the zombie bite hit boosts if zeds can gain from firearm training skills--CorndogheroT-S-Z 16:32, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Spam/Dupe Votes

  1. Bug Reports. --Druuuuu OcTRR 22:12, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  2. Bug - It's a game mechanic gone awry. Let Kevan fix it. --Banana reads Scoundrell for all of Yesterday's News, Today! 22:18, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  3. Spam - This suggestion that is. The gun zed is a bug that has been reported. Kevan reads the bug pages, if he hasn't decided to fix it yet, that's his prerogative. I would have voted Bug, but as the trenchy went "oh n0ez, teh zeds can use ma shotgunz" instead of "Perhaps we should limit crossover actions that are not in the spirit of the genre such as zombies firing guns or humans biting" this gets a Spam. -- Iscariot 22:33, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Everybody, this is not a bug. It's a 'code abuse', in that the way to fix it is to do a recoding of the game (hopefully a minor update). That why I can't report it in Bug Reports. Anyway, I do think it would be best to alert Kevan that there are people out there who would like such a change. Kevan doesn't have to fix a bug if he doesn't want to, but the goal of the Suggestion page is to give Kevan feedback so that he doesn't get spammed with email. But he still reserves the right to brush us off. EDIT: As for the accuastion of me being trenchy, I have one zombie alt, and no human alts at all. Should have shown a bit more tact though.--ShadowScope 03:11, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  4. Spam - Same as above. Additionally, I doubt many knew about this before you brought attention to it. Oh, and something about game balance. Bobs Aturd 22:39, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  5. Spam - why are we voting on weather a bug should be fixed or not?--Scotw 23:13, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
  6. +1 Bug – Or "hidden feature"? As Themanwhocares4 mentioned, the original Bub learned to use a gun… ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 03:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  7. Bug - Put this on the bug reports page.--Jorm 04:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  8. Bug - Every keep vote should be marked invalid and you should all be banned from voting on suggestions.--Karekmaps?! 04:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  9. Spam / Bug - if this hack is code abuse that should be blocked, "bug reports" is EXACTLY the place for it, and it is already covered there. Kevan can and has blocked many sorts of abuse in the past that were reported as bugs. A very similar example would be the Action Overloading hack, which was stamped out rather quickly after being reported as a bug. SIM Core Map.png Swiers 04:57, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  10. Bug Report - It was unclear to me at first whether this constitutes a bug, but I feel it is already adequately reported on the Bug Reports page. (see talk page for discussion). --PdeqTalk* 05:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  11. Someone kill this before too many people see it--THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS DORISFlag.jpg LOE ZHU | Яezzens 10:39, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
