Zombie AI improved or lag or ?

Normally the zombies in the game would spot you and start running towards you and all you had to do was move a few feet away and the zombie would run to the location you was at wait some time than start coming after you again. Zombie AI wasn't much you had to worry about. Last night however, I don't know if it was lag or if they improved the AI but rather than the zombies being rather dumb they kept coming to me without the pause and them having to "rethink" about what to do. The normal way to deal with zombies if you didn't want to kill them was just move around 10-15 feet or so and stop than move again. Now they seem to just keep going after you. Caught me off gaurd for a few mins.

Did they improve the AI or was it lag? Did anyone else notice the improvment and or lag?

It's not really a matter of "improving" the AI. They keep fixing memory leaks and server framerate, and that's making the zombies act faster. They can also dial the AI on the zombies up or down, and they'll keep playing with it as time goes on.

They had issues with servers that is why they made zombies more dumb. Now seems like they fixed servers and they are improving zombie AI + adding more zombies. They have added also horde

So with todays patch i expect they will add much more zombies.

Thats great. I wasn't very happy with the zombie AI when it first went live but shrugged it off as its a WIP but last night I was very much impressed.
