[Rejected] ZE zombie skins?

Just wondering if players can get skins for zombies like they can for humans after they rank up (skillbot).

Maybe something like this,

I've seen that facehugger skin on the zriot server, unless you supersize it no one is going to be able to hit it.

It would be pretty neat if zombies also got a model or 2 that they can use through skillbot.

The models you suggested though,

The Scrake seems okay, if a bit tall and wide (Might be unpopular because easier target to shoot)

The Eliminator is a bit "eeh" because of the smaller height, the opposite of the Scrake will likely apply.

Facehugger is just No.

And the Wraith might be okay.

I would prefer new zombie models that don't deviate from normal hitboxes, if we even need new zombie models

Someone please port the hello kitty dildo zombie ok? :

Most of this is up to Paralyzed and Blackrain.

The thing is, the more skins we add, the longer the Download will be. We don't want to have the same problem as sG with 10-15 minutes of just downloading skins.

I wonder who got permission for the server to use all those fancy asian models we never bothered to add

Weeb.

One of the reasons I never decided to implement zombie models for the skillbot perks was because at the time when the plugin was being introduced and constantly updated I wanted to focus more on the perks for humans since the majority of the points earned is from doing human objectives to win and the whole point of skillbot is to reward players who play well as a human and provide the teamwork to win.

Right now though I don't really mind adding like 1-2 zombie models but IMO I'd rather focus more on the human perks if anything. And also obviously consider download times because as of right now there's about more or less 15 player models total to download on the server excluding all the other custom files to download as well.

Pretty much what Leon said. The purpose of having models on Skillbot for the humans to have an incentive to properly grind for them while promoting healthy teamwork in ZE. I prefer to keep it that way since we primarily use zclass to offer models on zombies instead and more importantly to all community ranks (excluding the donor one).

We already change the models up every few months to celebrate a special holiday/season or just refresh the look if it's been too long. Also remember that we already annoy the shit out of people with our massive download times because we placed about 9+ models based on zclasses available as well as offer an 2 models for Subs & VIPs as a perk. When we change up models then we replace all of them, this forces all users to experience download waits again because of newer ones (some will probably have them from other servers), and can be annoying enough for people with low speeds or that hate to wait.

We're adding a few new models this month soon but for zclass instead. Thanks for the suggestion though.
