infection cure

[sonic sentinel]

Would be really useful to have a way to cure the zombie infection in players. I don't play perma death mode but that has to be endlessly frustrating to have a run end like that due to RNG. Maybe a more advanced process to get ingredients, or you can find 1 or 2 cures in a specific special location that have a very low chance of respawning to hold you over til you can get the technology to make them. Or a way to make a vaccine to inoculate yourself, and prevent you from contracting the infection for a day or two

I asked the Dev on his live stream and he told me there would be no cure made for the zombie virus? now could he change his mind yes, but as far as I know there is no cure planned at this moment

If there was a cure, then there would be no apocalypse, no common cold and no cancer.

no cure is OK by me, but there should at least be a way to slow the progression or the player having to constantly do certain things to keep it in check like drinking bleach or something 😄

also, since it's a virus there should be a way for the player to infect others

it would also be cool if zeds have unique interaction with the infected player - either not attack or do less damage, or player gains the ability to sic the infected on others, etc. being infected can unlock other traits not accessible to the uninfected

having it be a chronic condition would be interesting 👀

having to take certain medications would give the player a chance to continue playing that run but with extra challenges

I mean, to me at least this isn't too much of a thing. These zombies are pretty slow moving and fairly easy to avoid or kill at distance atm, it's not like getting caught outside, on foot in Dayz and getting 2 or 3 zombies after you...
