In the upcoming zombie and survival MMO H1Z1, the infection with the eponymous virus likely brings both advantages and disadvantages.
At Gameinformer, they had the opportunity to play the current version of the survival MMO H1Z1. And they became acquainted with the new “infection level.” Because now one must not only watch out for hunger, thirst, and HP, but also for the H1Z1 virus.
The tester writes that he intentionally allowed himself to be bitten by a zombie to reach infection level 4. At level 5, one dies. Just before the zombie exit, however, his character developed special abilities. Thus, he could already scent other players from a distance on a “pheromone” trail. However, such a high infection level also brings disadvantages: Vision becomes blurred. Not to mention the impending death. Probably, one transforms into a zombie upon reaching the level and thereby loses control over the character.
In a stream about the game, SOE President John Smedley had already talked about how the infection level will likely rise through contact with infected individuals or the consumption of contaminated food. It can be lowered by penicillin, an item in the game. Learn more about H1Z1 on our topic page.
