I think it would be good if this mod have a escaping mode. The map can be much larger but narrow. And filled with zombies but less of humans. Just like the Omnicide mod.

And I think the Zombies' AI is too low. Sometimes they just stood in front of you but would not attack. Why not make it more aggressive?

Maybe that's a little bit disrespect. But I have to say that the BGM is not so helpful. I seldom use it and the music is annoying. I like music but I don't want to hear it all the time. Maybe you can add some radio or TV in the map. When people pass it then the music play. Just like some map in other mod. And I think you can make a survey and see what the others think about it.

Escaping Mode sounds good but a bit too easy. Although we may make it so you have to escape with our BMW 2002 we made.

As far as AI. yes AI is a tad stupid in certain conditions and we hope to fix that. We have made them slightly more aggressive and faster already but that isn't really the issue. The issue with the standing still is when they are capturing flags. So we need to find a way to make them attack if you get near them around a flag position.

You are not disrespecting at all, Criticism is something I like to recieve because it gives us priority on what really needs to get done. BGM is for the people who want it, and you don't have to use it. Still I have been thinking about it and maybe for the campaign we can have musical triggers for certain moments or areas. That idea will be harder to accomplish however, but it's something that I think we could do and might would be cool.

A survey sounds good, but I am not really sure how to go about it. I might could ask one of the several website owners I know to throw something together that would submit peoples surveys to my e-mail for me to personally go through, and pass on to Uber. Plus then we could sit down every night and discuss different surveys with new ideas or comments.

Overall, we love both positive and negative feedback from people who play our mod. We would just like the feedback to come with reasons to why they like it or hate it so we know what we are doing right and what we are doing wrong.

Thank you again Zanomin for the comments and suggestions. We will definitely be looking into improving the AI later this week once I am done spending time with my family. (Who I escaped to post here hehe)
