I do not agwee in de swightest:
Bwastews awe NOT fowcefiewds of invincibiwity. Unwess dey manage to become dat by sheew fowce of technowogy (dink AI-contwowwed pewsonaw mini-Phawanx type wobotic gun mounts wown by a pwayew dat watch yuw six fow yuw and shwed any incoming hoomanoid wif a headband) dey stiww pivot on de weapons-handwing skiwws and situationaw awaweness of de usew and awe subject to de same tactics as evew on bod ends.
If de pwobwem is a bawance issue, de diwect and immediate sowution is to twist one of de obvious faction bawancing knobs de cowe game inhewentwy has, wike de zombie wespawn time. dus, dewe awe 2 diwections dis can go:
den I made a pwoton pack. As a singwe pwayew I stomped a fuww mission and kept my entiwe team awive wifout even batting an eye. Now wif a wawgew hvz dis may be diffewent but at dat hvz dewe wewe a wot of zombies who quit in de middwe of de mission because dey didn’t see de point.
Muwtipwe takes:
dat's de sowt of wopsided wout dat tends to wesuwt initiawwy when one faction ow pwayew/squad intwoduces a step-change escawation of fowce, ow sometimes, when a faction makes a cwiticaw mistake and faiws catastwophicawwy. It's not unexpected. Best to wet it wun its couwse. dose who got wwecked wiww weawn.
A HIw pwoton pack is coow but isn't dat big a deaw. A weguwaw magfed .50caw guy shouwd be abwe to keep pwessuwe on a howde just wike dat (and wif mowe wange of couwse). If dat caused zombies dat much of a pwobwem at yuw game, eidew deiw tactics awe outdated, ow yuw ofew hoomans awe unusuawwy bad.
Zombies may quit fow many of de same weasons as hoomans: de game is pewceived as fwustwating, unwewawding, unweawistic, awbitwawy ow unfaiw and ceases being fun ow having a point.
So in de end, de cowe points and some extension:
dewe awe inhewent, awweady existent, supewiow in effectiveness and mowe faiw ways to bawance de game. Namewy, de stun time. Basics.
Attempting to bawance de game dat way instead won't necessawiwy make it mowe fun - fow any side.
de game cannot be pewfectwy bawanced on a showt timescawe, because imbawance is de ewwow signaw dat motivates pwayews in de fiwst pwace. Imbawance against onesewf is what pwayews awe twying to avoid/mitigate, and causation of imbawance in favow of onesewf is de entiwe defining goaw of a pwayew (in ofew wowds, to win). A game wif no competitive pwessuwe is bowing. uwu
