Smoker and Hunter should regain health after time!

brooka

I think it would be good thing to add to the game because I hate when i'm smoker or hunter i've got 50 hp i'm pretty much useless. Something like 3 hp a sec or 6hp whatever the health gain is it would help.

I Redemptionx I

i think it actually may be useful - as long as it's not 6hp a second. Something like 5 hp every 5 seconds or some thing like that.

basically it serves the point of "Do I stay here and restore health, or do I attack anyway, even though I'll be killed in one bullet"

This used to be a feature of the hunter, but, for some reason, they removed it.

You can't really say it's overpowering, because it's just as easy to kill them even if they do have health regen. Especially if they don't get the regen when they're being shot at.

yah this would be good, if you like regained 6hp/1second when your out of sight of surivors

I think this is a great idea. Usually if you jump at someone and miss, you usually get shot at and might die. If you don't you're at very little health, and will be killed in one hit. I like the 1 HP per second system.

When the hunter and smoker should regain health is when they've got no pounce or snare when there out of sight of the survivors or when the hunter isn't in mid-flight.

They should just snatch peels off the survivors and eat them

It can actually be a very strategic part of the game. Imagine being a hunter, you pounce, you hit, you get meleed off and you crawl/pounce away into the shadows. Big decision. Sit and restore health (letting the survivors get closer to the safehouse) or leave the health and go for a 25-pointer??

Lotsa strategy here...

How about you slowly regain about 1 hp every second when the survivors are not in sight?

SI regen sounds like a great idea. boomers and spitters would gain 2 per sec. hunters, jockeys, and smokers would gain 4 per sec, and charger would gain 6 per sec.

Dead people don't heal.

The Charger needs this more than anyone else. >_> Screw the Hunter and Smoker.

Dead people dont slow me down to the pace of a snail when just one is hitting me either >.< nor do smokers survive jumping out right in front of me, and then pulling me whilst im unloading the entire contents of my AK at them either. (happened to me last night that did on scavenge...)

I quite like this infected regen idea, just so long as it is fairly minimal, as regen is not gonna make it any harder to kill a charger or hunter thats pinned someone, it will just make things better to play as infected
"ok, after that flurry of gunfire, im now on 3 hp. i might as well have died and started my 20 second respawn timer now rather then have to feebly attempt to land more damage and delay my return to full health"

Dead people usually dont Have huge arms, Insanely large tongues, Jump massive heights, Puke out green ooze.

The infection does weird things, this could be one of them

Still.....dead people don't have an immune system. No healing.

They can do all that normal zombie stuff though.........

The 'zombies' of L4D aren't dead. They have enough coordination to run and climb, and even feel pain and bleed when shot set on fire. They're a 28 Days Later type of zombie. :P
