Living dead needs to be updated

hello halo players
in my opinion living dead needs to be updated
im constantly playing the playlist
but when ever i play, and i have to defend, one of the original starting zombies quits
and then iv become the original zombie because they quit and i lose my place as the defender.
im pretty sure this has happened to many people also
so what i was suggesting is
if an original zombie quits, no human should become a zombie because of that, they just play with the remaining original zombies.
also if all zombies quit then its game over, and just search again
that’s just in my opinion what should happen.
because it just gets really frustraiting for example
you almost got a running riot and got 13 kills then a zombie quits and then all of a sudden your a zombie.

Or they could just remove the playlist all together.

noobs don’t have rights, play the joke playlists and don’t complain

remember, zombies are players to and no some mindless simulated AI, its unfair for the zombie/s to be down a person because his teammate quite while he goes up against 9 people, just having sword puts him at a disadvantage already but being by himself will make it impossible.

also, your feedback on parasitic would be greatly apreciated.

and why the hell would they remove the most popular playlist ? now that would really kill Reach off.

It is very frustrating when you’re doing well and then suddenly turn into a zombie but as haunted has said, the mechanic is kind of needed to keep fairness so as annoying as it is, i think it should stay.

Agreed.

It’s only popular because it’s the easiest playlist. It’s full of players that can’t win outside of LD.

Not only that but it’s full of little kids that shouldn’t be playing this. Parents these days…

Or it’s most popular because…you know, people like it the most…

Yeh, I wouldn’t enjoy going into other playlists and going -20 either.

Perhaps you have not been watching the population, but LD has lost a fair amount of population since 343 updated it. This is most likely a result of the skill required to play on the new maps which were specifically designed to make it far more difficult for humans in that gametype.

It does not bother me at all, in fact I enjoy them, but games like Swat and BTB appear to have picked up the population that fled.

It’s population is a bit misleading with regard to its popularity. Slayer games are actually more popular, but they are spread around into several competing playlists, with Team Slayer being the most dominant. On the other hand, all of the Infection/Alpha Zombies type games are in a single playlist, the Living Dead (except for the negligible smattering in Anniversary FFA which people looking for Achievements complain “never” come up in that playlist, and which also is not open to the general population, requiring access to the Anniversary playlists).

That might be true but it’s still a very popular playlist, i just object to people who don’t like it, being selfish enough to want it to be removed for that reason alone. There’s plenty of other playlists available that they can go and play, i don’t like Team Snipers that much but i wouldn’t dream of stating it should be removed to suit me.

Or he spawned as a Zombie 3 times on Uncaged :wink:

OT: Rather than cutting out the feature completely, have so that if the zombie count falls below the starting amount (3), it will convert a player to an Alpha Zombie. Currently, there is no point to it if there are two players left and a zombie quits since they are already vastly outnumbered.

haha yeah but that map is garbage in every playlist, it just happens to be at its worst in infection, i wish they’d remove it to be honest, and add more community maps, there are some great ones out there.
