Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
Argent Healers have been removed almost entirely, 3 or so only being found in SW and IF. Rats are coming in herds (one after another, literally) from the Stockades in Stormwind.  Shattrath's Shattered Sun Recruits training on the Terrace of Light are getting infected and keep respawning to get infected again to join in on the armies of Zombies in Shat. A flying mount is good here, thankfully for land walkers zombies can't use elevators (Aldor and Scryer tiers), are afraid of orphanages (In lower city rofl) and there's 10 elites in the center to save you).  And not only that but the disease is reduced to 1 minute, and if you got a zombie beating on you it'll take 15 seconds. Each hit a zombie does on you speeds up the spreading of the disease by 10 seconds.  Some say it's getting out of hand (was already out of hand 3 phases ago  ). Even I am starting to think it's getting out of hand (me doing 4 zombie raids today on opposite faction towns  ).What's your opinion on this whole matter? |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
As long as it doesn't last too long, I think it is fine. It is supposed to be annoying, and unlike other events, this one really does invade your world. It forces me back into the whole WoW storyline and it is not purely cosmetic and optional. Of course, I am a bored 70 waiting for Wrath of the Lich King. I am sure I will pretty pissed if I am leveling near stormwind...

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
yeah, i'm level 60 now working on my mount, and the zombies are getting a little annoying. I haven't been playing the game long enough to be bored and out of stuff to do, i haven't even gone to the outlands yet! so it's sort of gettin in my way. but I do think it's a nice way to bring people back to the storyline and add some excitement. I normally ignore storeline, but this time I can't. It's also nice that it's bringing horde and alliance together to an extent, to at least have one huge goal in common. |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
So instead of hearthing back to shatt I decided to go through the dark portal after fighting the necropolis in the blasted lands...somebody infected the defenders on the outlands side of the dark portal and the demons had free run of the place. I've never seen that before. They chased be back through the portal. |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
The first day or two I was amused by it, now it is just plain annoying. Tonight I could not even use the bank to prepare for a raid because of all the zombies. While I see the point of the event, I don't think Blizzard thought this through very well (or they just don't care). Those of us who have limited time to play the game are getting the shaft. Not to mention the cost of repairs from zombie explosion every time I get infected. You can label me as a QQ if you want, but my money is just as good as anybody else's and I am paying for the game too. There should have been some sort of limit or diminishing returns or something in place so my time is not completely wasted while trying to do Auction House/Bank/Quest giver stuff. Just my two cents.

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
It is most certainly frustrating. Although I also realize the value in story line I am sick of not being able to visit a home city without fear of being unable to engage in the normal activities. It took me an hour and three home cities to post on the AH and get quest items from my bank. Maybe for future Zombie Infestations there should be some more restrictions. |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
I found it incredibly annoying. Also my Dad was introducing a new player to the game, and somebody was infecting the starting area, well that guy doesn't want to play again. So not only is it annoying, for new players it could be a deal breaker. |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
I've said this before but... I'm having no problems with the zombies since my logic board died and I can't play at all!  I'm having fun with "books" though. My grandfather said they didn't need power so I can go to Starbucks without worrying about sitting near an outlet. |

Re: Zombies Getting Out of Hand?
I agree, for the first couple days it was amusing, fun, something new to do, but now it is just getting annoying. There should have been some sort of limitations in place for the NPC's, I could care less how many times I get infected, I get it cleansed before I turn or go off somewhere nobody else is and explode, but it is annoying as hell when you need to buy/sell/repair/fly/turn in quest, and the NPC's are turned or dead. |
