Suggestion description
With this change, zombies can buy a skill "clamber" for the standard 100XP which allows them to freerun through ruined buildings:

• The target building cannot be a large building,
• Both buildings must be ruined.

Thanks to Seventythree, Swiers, Pavluk and Duke Garland for feedback on the original.

Keep Votes

1. Jonny12 ^talk 11:10, 24 August 2007 (BST)
2. Weak keep Okay, only ruined buildings. Although, it's another boost to the already overpowered zombie base. Glenstone 11:19, 24 August 2007 (BST)
3. Keep - because the walls are destroyed --~~~~_T^''' 12:03, 24 August 2007 (BST)
4. Keep - As long as the in-game flavour only mentions "clambering" and not "zombie free-running." --  T   12:04, 24 August 2007 (BST)
5. Keep - Let's all go Zombierunning!--Seventythree 13:01, 24 August 2007 (BST)
6. Keep --Karloth Vois ^RR 13:39, 24 August 2007 (BST)
7. Keep - Not a bad idea. Quite unique. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 14:02, 24 August 2007 (BST)
8. Keep - I like it. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 14:07, 24 August 2007 (BST)
9. Keep - Makes ruin more useful without being overpowered. Ruin reflects the fact that zombies have become territorial. This skill helps them "guard" their territory. -- Pavluk 00:23, 25 August 2007 (BST)

Kill Votes

1. ??? - It's an interesting idea, but the flavor just isn't there, and it really doesn't seem to make that much sense. BoboTalkClown 16:29, 24 August 2007 (BST)
2. Kill - Zombies... can't walk through walls. Neither can they fly... so how would they do that? -- Bop 11:22, 24 August 2007 (BST)
3. Kill - Sorry charlie. --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF CoL DORIS CRF pr0n} 11:26, 24 August 2007 (BST)
4. Kill - Zombies are not agile. How can they free run? --Pdeq 11:39, 24 August 2007 (BST)
5. Kill - And pigs can fly. Regardless of the semantics or wording, I don't like the suggestion whatsoever. --Ryiis 13:30, 24 August 2007 (BST)
6. Kill - What. The. Fug. I'm going a step further, what the heck is the point? Let me put it this way. Ruined buildings=no survivors or cades. No survivors or cades=no XP for zombies. So let me get this straight: Let them move through buildings pointlessly, only to emerge at another location... WHERE THEY COULD'VE WALKED FOR LESS AP? This suggestion makes no mathematical or logical sense. Nalikill 13:32, 24 August 2007 (BST)
7. Given that I obviously feel that survivors should not be able to free into ruined buildings, it would make no sense for me to vote to allow zombies to do so.  Swiers 14:15, 24 August 2007 (BST)
8. Kill - Impossible to visualise how this would work. --Pgunn 15:13, 24 August 2007 (BST)
9. Kill Not realistic, at all. Zombies are poor walkers to begin with, and definately not agile.      Ekashp wuz here (aht harman bra!nz!)        15:53, 24 August 2007 (BST)
10. Kill - As above. --Saluton 16:57, 24 August 2007 (BST)
11. Kill - Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. --The Hierophant 17:03, 24 August 2007 (BST)
12. Kill - Why would zombies want to free run? And how would they do it? --Nikitis 18:01, 24 August 2007 (BST)
13. Kill - There is no reason why zombie should free-run--  Savant  Chit-Chat  19:31, 24 August 2007 (BST)
14. Kill - Zombies are dessicated corpses, and as such they arent very good at jumping. Hell, they cant even kill themselves when jumping from a window they suck that hard at it. No. Zombies are not agile. --The Grimch ^Mod-U! 20:39, 24 August 2007 (BST)
15. Kill - My 2 zombie characters say No! Just no! -- John Rubin^{T! ZG} 21:23, 24 August 2007 (BST)
16. Kill - Stupid and pointless.--Karek^maps?! 23:07, 24 August 2007 (BST)
17. Kill - I would imagine that zombies have a more difficult time walking into a rubble-filled building. After all, they are quite clumsy. --Vkkhamul 01:31, 25 August 2007 (BST)
18. Kill - I kind of like it. I just can't imagine any sort of realistic reason it should exist. In most cases, I would vote keep for a suggestion that was more "fun" than "realistic." This one is just so disconnected from reality that I can't do it. --Steakfish 03:20, 25 August 2007 (BST)
19. Weak Kill It's a good idea, but no. Zombies shouldn't be able to free run. Sorry dude, nice try. --Secruss 03:38, 25 August 2007 (BST)
20. Kill - I want to keep. I really do. I just cannot. The only way zombies can do this is if survivors can too. --Druuuuu 05:37, 25 August 2007 (BST)
21. Kill - Way, way out of genre. Zombies are uncordinated, shambling, Undead Creatures who can't even jump, let alone free run. --Sonofagun18 05:55, 25 August 2007 (BST)
22. Weetaded - A corpse can't freerun. I can't freerun. Nor can you. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 06:08, 25 August 2007 (BST)
23. BLAM - Headshot this suggestion, as above. --Private Mark 17:09, 25 August 2007 (BST)
24. Weak Kill - No thanks. I can understand your reasoning, but in its current form, this just isn't believable. If you want, we can work on this a bit more on my talk page. --Hhal 20:24, 25 August 2007 (BST)
25. Kill - Let survivors keep their advantage in movement, zombies their advantage in being able to stand up and fight.--Insomniac By Choice 20:47, 25 August 2007 (BST)
26. KILL IT It makes no sense noobs (except scouts) cant freerun into the building but zombies can--Doctor Oberman 17:07, 26 August 2007 (BST)

    KILL - The zombies don;t need anything else. besides, zombies can't freerun anyway. Unsigned Vote --Karek^maps?! 13:16, 2 September 2007 (BST)

27. Kill for the reasons given by the other users.-- Vista  +1  11:35, 4 September 2007 (BST)
28. Zombies can't freerun. I think that's been decided already. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:01, 6 September 2007 (BST)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Spam!!! - what kind of crack monkey suggestion is this??? you can't be serious, can you? WTF is the point of a zombie free-running, they don't need shelter?!! this suggestion doesn't even DO anything! like, why don't you just suggest the utlimate new character class: THE ZOMBIE NINJA!!! that or, like, lay off the crappy drugs. this seriously has to be the single most retarded of all the retarded suggestions i've seen...... --WanYao 01:44, 25 August 2007 (BST)

   Re: It's a suggestion for a game. Don't get so worked up, unless of course it makes you feel like a big man. Jonny12 ^talk 12:28, 25 August 2007 (BST)

   Who's "worked up"? It's a totally moronic suggestion for a game, and absolutely worthy of merciless mockery. Either don't suggest crap, or suck it up. Princess. --WanYao 23:54, 1 September 2007 (BST)

2. No. - However weak of an update it may be, the very last thing this game needs right now is another zombie update.--Labine50 ^MHG|MEMS 03:51, 25 August 2007 (BST)
3. Spam - I can't really see zombies jumping from building to building, climbing destroyed stairs etc. --Abi79 ^AB 21:08, 25 August 2007 (BST)
4. Spam I don't see how something that is decaying- and is less agile than most klutzes - doing the gymnastics required to FR through buildings. Also, WHY would a greenie WANT to do that? --Driaquer 05:43, 29 August 2007 (BST)
