And, I'm even welcoming something new to the zombie world (I'm making it's world premier), a hybrid zombie!
Your choose 3 or 4 zombies from various games, or the same game, doesn't matter, and put them together, and we imagine it, and tell our idea's here, in this thread! (this should get interesting =P)
Now, I'll start with this new zombie-dedicated thread (I know, I know, this whole Forum is dedicated to zombies, but I just got more specific
)Now, before I start, I'm gonna name a couple of zombie types, not including any zombie concoctions you come up with. Well, here I go, diving into the dark room, not knowing what lies ahead. All you here is the slight murmur of some sentient life....
So, there are many types of zombies, but there are two general categories that I out them in: Fast and slow.
Now, each category had its advantages for killing, and eventually eating, us. But, each one also has its disadvantages, too.
I'm going to start with the fast zombies.
FAST
Fast zombies are generally they ones that you see in new age media. Why? Because people like to see us (humans) running from something that can be killed in less than a second. But, only with the right equipment. I'm not going into my Zombie Survival Guide in this thread... Maybe some other time.
Anyway, back to zombies. Fast zombies are good for many things, like chasing after the poor chaps who think there is a place to run. Poor, poor imbeciles...
Anyways, there are also some zombies that are that are mutilated in some way, and fast. For example, HEADLESS ZOMBIES. =)
Then, of course, the special infected, as Valve likes to call them. They could be anything, ranging from a pouncing zombie, to one that pulls you in toward him/her/it the die, using his elongated tongue. As you see, fast zombie are the clear choice, right? Well, we shall see.
SLOW
Slow zombies aren't generally current, unless they are "special". Slow zombie are usually in older movies. When I say "older", I mean like Edgar Allen Poe old. (Lol, I made a joke xD)
So, slow zombies aren't in demand right now. So what? There are plenty of special slow zombies, right? Right. They include one that pukes on you, attracting a massive horde of mindless, common zombies, who seem to come out of thin air.
Then, there are those who like to jump on your back, and start to bite, gnaw and rip apart your neck. And, there are some who spit burning goo, or acid, at you from great distances.
And, a little side note, there are some zombies that both slow and fast. They normally walk, relatively slow. but when they start into a run, they can get dangerously fast. One zombie type (known as the charger) even has a mutant-arm (very big, with big hand) which he uses to smash you into the ground a few times to incapacitate you.
Now, only one more thing: Special Zombies.
I will name all of the special infected that I know, and attempt to explain it's good attributes, and bad ones. Also, i will explain my hybrid zombie.
1)HUNTER
The most common of the special infected, it can pounce at it's target at over 30 feet away. It deals a small amount damage fast, which makes this zombie the generic of all the special zombies. Rank: 7.5/10
2)BOOMER
The second most common of the special infected, it is slow, and easy to kill. It looks likes an undead skin for Fat Bastard, so it doesn't look very scary. Until it shows its secret weapon: its own bile, which attracts the zombie horde, which is very dangerous if you are caught by yourself. Rank: 6/10
3)JOCKEY
The metaphorical jockey of the zombie world, a Jockey is a very agile, jumping special. This hyper zombie (probably has ADHD by the way it moves, jumps, and grunts) will jump on your back and gnaw at your neck until you drop from blood lose, and eventually die. While relatively easy to kill, it can dodge attacks by just walking away, or "lunging" to safety. Rank: 6/10
4)SMOKER
This is a very tall, very revolting zombie, if you take a really close to its face. It's special zombie ability is its elongated tongue to pull you to it. It wraps around the victims neck and collar bone, and drags them to their doom. This zombie is pretty easy to kill, as long at you hit it. Rank: 6.5/10

5)SPITTER
This female zombie (notice its shirt, kinda saggy though O.o) can spit burning goo, or acid, or whatever floats your boat. but the thing that is similar between all those, is it hurts. A lot. It does so much damage to you, that if you don't get out in 5 seconds, you incapacitated. Overall, easy to kill, and generally pretty common to see around the game. Rank: 7.75/10
6)CHARGER
This zombie looks like every other common infected, except it has a really big right arm and hand! It can also run very fast, so it can knock down a group of (stupid) Survivors (who don't have enough sense to move out of the way, when they hear, and eventually [or hopefully] see a big zombie charging their way). Once this massive zombie has a good hold on an unfortunate Survivor, it will never let go. It will just keep pounding you in the ground 'til he has some human pancakes. Yuum!!
Rank: 7.5/10
7)TANK
What is there to say about the tank? Well, it can run through the Survivors better than a Charger. It can do more damage than a Spitter, and it can attack from father distances than the Smoker. Yes, the Tank is the ultimate killing zombie. Combined with super-human strength, massive muscles (HE SO DEEZED!!) and a lot of health, just looking at this M1A2 Abrams of a zombie will scare you out of your panties. Official Rank: 9/10
WITCHI don't know how to explain how awesome the witch is... She is unable to play in-game, because she is just too powerful (more-so than that of the tank!). It just walks around, or sits down, crying. But if you disturb this creature, be ready, because one hit will send you to your knees. Rank: 100,000,000,000/10
Now, for my favorite part, the hybrid..
My zombie includes the ability to fly, and it has claws, just about 2 1/2'' smaller than the witches, and is stronger than the Tank, but weaker than the Witch.
It has demon horns, and has teeth that can chew through diamonds.
Enjoy, Villuns, and get creative! I want to see you guys your imaginations at work! ENJOY =)
