Halloween Event: Zombie Invasion

I was talking to my friend, telling him "They are adding bikinis to FFXIV! Lol, imagine how dorky it would be if I was playing a cat woman killing zombies in a bikini!" The only problem with that is FFXIV doesn't have zombies! I know its still a long while till Halloween, but this idea would take a while to implement, and I think it would be awesome!

I think that There should be a Halloween event with a ZOMBIE INVASION!!! This could be tied into a Hamlet defense scenario. I would love to have to fight off a huge amount of zombies. Zombies are very popular among the youth in America, so this could also be a big selling point with this game.

Don't forget to LIKE! this post if you would like to see some zombies in this game!

Definitely, zombie killing would be the best. I'm a fan of Resident Evil, and love playing Black Ops and Red Dead Redemption just for the zombie killing. Great idea for a Halloween event!

they have zombie in this game but they don't look like zombies at all... they need to replace their graphic for sure to make it look like real zombie/ghouls

But yeah I agree with OP's idea so gave +1 just saying if they going to release, they better fix the zombie graphic to make it more fun.

But we don't have zombies invading the cities!

I approve...

I face zombie invasion every time I enter the Market Wards.

As long as there's a horror head, I'm happy. I need me a pumpkin face to wear with my Star-Spangled Subligar.

I'm Really getting zombied out. Now creepy little mammets running around doing all kinds of no good, that could be fun.

To make it more FF i think the wights would be invading, you play classic FF's there are zombie type creatures not sure if they're called Ghouls, but most of the times its skellies.

I play Left for Dead almost daily, so I'd love to see something like this. Hey, why not toss some of those Shade mobs in the mix, too.

I'm sure SE will keep it FF-esque. What I see happening is them recoloring/renaming mobs for the event. But some kid of undead invasion on the cities for Halloween would be perfect!

WoW (yes, WoW again!) had something like this a couple of years ago as a prelude to their at the time upcoming expansion. It was interesting and annoying at the same time.

You could pick up a plague infested item from somewhere, you get infected and eventually turn into a ghoul. At that point, everything non-ghoul was your enemy and you could attack other players regardless if they were PvP flagged or not. The reason you would attack other actual players was so you could spread the infection onto them and turn them into ghouls as well if they didn't get a cure in time.

The big perk of this? All ghouls had their own language barrier and you could take players from both of the normal factions, who can't communicate normally, and be able to talk to each other.

The bad parts? You could also infect npcs and all of a sudden anyone who was important to talk to became a ghoul and you had to resort to other methods to do something (kill the npc, let them respawn normal or go elsewhere). If you turned into a ghoul in town, anybody could jump on you. If an npc gave the killing blow, you suffered durability loss if you had equips on.

I avoided this ghoul event in WoW, reasons. Kinda wonder how a FF version would look.

Botanists Versus Zombies - love it!

They've already got a bunch of undead models/enemy types already, so I see no problem here. Either that or a mix of those + pumpkin head mandragora.

That would be pretty fun. You have my full support. :)

Coming to Final Fantasy XIV this Halloween: "Invasion of The Flesh-Eating Zombie Dodos"

That would be pretty damn freaky.

sounds like fun^^ by the way there is actually a leve in halatali where you fight zombies lol
i was pretty suprised

This could be fun. I think it shouldnt be limited to zombies though. Any undead/halloween resembling mobs should be included. That WoW event, as bad as I hate to say it :P, sounds kinda fun. Annoying yes, but fun.

Pumpkin-head mandies ftw!!!! Lol

Also, that ghoul thing from WoW sounds pretty cool (too bad I missed it). I'd like something along those lines for a Halloween event, but more proper to FFXIV. Being infected and turning into a ghoul/zombie/whatever would be pretty neat.

Zombie invasion would be copy/pasted from WoW :/ definitly for halloween they should think something own

Nope. WoW had an event like that. Doing the same here would be a major shitstorm from ex wow players to "steal" a past event

So sick of zombies. It seems like every other is either based on zombies or somehow trying to cram in zombies whether it suits them or not.

They do fit the fantasy setting of FFXIV so maybe they would fit in but still, I'm so sick of them.

Zombies are SO 2009.

Spider people are where it's at. You know, people who scurry about on all fours and can climb walls?
