Because zombies carrying half a metal house was much more realistic right? god you kids sound like...kids. It's placeholder, and they been saying they were taking out Zoms since BEFORE alpha, Garry wanted them out before alpha launch, presumebly to keep whiny kids from whining. All this bitching and tears makes me think his reason for this patch doing it, is justified, as there is too many people crying about it. The zombies were like...a complete after thought, they died in one, two hits, and weren't a threat..period.
im not a kid, i'm 33 years old. sorry that i didn't read all futures plans dev had at the time i bought. i bought a "zombie survival game" that is now a just silly survival game. at least there is some logic that a zombie is carrying a backpack because humans do. i never heard about a wolf or a bear using backpacks. maybe on circus, so yeah let's add clowns and beard women.
