Are the walkers getting smarter/faster SPOILERS INSIDE
Hey! this is my 1st thread.
But anyway here is a little question - are they getting smarter/faster.
Here are some facts to go with what i think.
EPIOSDE 1 - The walkers did not run. Cut you off. They just attacked the main door in the drug store. and when we were going to save Irene the walkers didnt notice you as you were wondering around the area.
EPISODE 2 - This is where they are getting smarter. If you leave David ( or whatever his name is ) the walker - kinda - lunges at him. At the barn when mark turns - he didnt go down the stairs to alert brenda but just waited until she came up. Andy - When Andy is given mercy by lee the walkers come from all sides ( this may just be random that they did ) instead of coming from a line.
-=-=This is where it gets evidentual -=-=-
EPISODE 3 - With the woman ( Beatrice ) when she runs out of the store the walker following her is RUNNING you can clearly see that she is running and also they corner her instead of coming in one direction. If you kill her when kenny is running in the drugstore - Guess what? - a walker lunges at him. Even if you dont kill the girl. the walkers find you. Could this be memory shown by walkers? or just noises from there. The walker in the helicopter. He breaks through the glass. and climbs out.(and he learns to become a ninja zombie cause he appears out of thin air.) I guess the train? the horde incoming? this COULD be nothing because zombies are lured by sound.
EPIOSDE 4 - THE MOST SMARTEST ONES I HAVE SEEN - im not going to mention the bells because they lured in by sound. In the Sewer the zombie grabs lee from a hole in the ground and holds him steady so other walkers can get him. before you get in the sewer the walkers trap you from BOTH sides of the ally. not just one, they trap you. Also at the end of the episode lee comes along and says '' Hurrdurr im gonna be a Derp and stand still staring at a object in the ZA im sure a zombie wont attack me ''
that zombie was hidden and lunged right at lee
Crawford -
The walker that gets smashed by a TV he runs at you. you cant deny that.
The walker that attacks molly he runs at her after getting attacked by her
At the bell tower - C. Oberson - Zombie. Grabs ben whilst being shaken and jerked around. hold onto him. If you let ben drop the zombies go down to him instead of lee and lee is closed to them. i think the reason for that is because the zombies KNEW that ben was disabled and lee was abled to flee. When brie was attacked by walkers the zombie pinned her head down to the door whilst another one ate her.
EPIOSDE - 1
* Zombies are slow
* Dont trap you off
* Go for one enterance
EPIOSDE - 4
* Trap you off
* They lunge at you
* Go to block all ways out.
That is my theory. Please comment and share your thoughts.
Another thing. - Shouldnt
Ben and Brie be walkers now? because they were not shot in the head. the wiki should change it.

so what you see as smart is just bad luck for Lee rather than actual thought and planning from the zombies eg.
the zombie grabs what it wants to eat, not to give his zombie friends the advantage
they are always equally as dumb, but random luck and circumstance can sometimes give them an advantage
i didn't create it so don't count my word as TWD fact, but i don't think this is the zombies get smarter story, its the zombies are zombies and how do people deal with them story
Right here is evidence enough for me that they're not getting any smarter.
does no one agree?!
REDPANDA WHERE ARE YOU!!! XD
But that's what the herd is all about. If it's only a single zombie, it'll eventually stop, but if it's a lot of them, they will travel up to a point where they'll just be following each other as if they were following the sound.
what about speed? that was a question in there too.
but probs nobody agrees with me
What do you mean? A sound can be heard from all directions. That's why they end up converging and trapping.
But about the speed, I don't know. I thought they were just lunging at you, like that bastard that was hidden behind the garbage did.
Edit:
I think he meant like the herd does. Even after the train stopped, they kept going on that direction. But that's just normal behaviour.
Half the time in ep 4 Lee just casually walked away from zombies like they were little more than creepy mimes, I don't see them getting any faster.
I thought he meant in situations like "also they corner her instead of coming in one direction. " he mentioned. They're not actively thinking and planning to trap, they're just drawn in from different sides of her
And lee does seem to act like the zombies are creepy mimes ill give you that Cormoran! xD
when i play Episode 5 that will be in my mind
zombies are able to grab things its one of the limited skills they have, hold on/grab same thing really
Zombie Holds on to molly and pulls her around
Zombies surround her
That's all normal behaviour to me XD
Zombie lunges at Molly and grabs her. As the zombie pulls her, she tries to free herself by going around and stuff like that. The other ones see the prey (Molly) and also try to get her.
zombie lunges does not make it faster.. it literally let's itself fall forward in hope to grab her. That's the classic zombie lunge.
Zombie holds onto Molly yes, but it's not the zombie that pulls her around, it is the zombie being pulled around by Molly as she struggles. Big difference.
Zombies surround her has more to do with her actually having a chance. Normal Horde mentality is actually all jump on her so she can't get away. Just standing there is actually more dumb than it is smart. And they are only around her because that is where she ended up after the struggle with the first zombie.
Also, as you could see, all other zombies in that scene are extremely slow. Nothing about being faster or smarter there.
also molly was pulling and moving around herself as well as the zombie as the zombie pulling her
Yet TWD zombies are defined as the classical sense. Slow moving, barely intelligent, reactionary, etc..
It's not like they wake up in the morning and do wind sprints!!
In short, I think you're completely wrong in the context of this game. I do however, agree with you in terms of the genre if that helps.
Well said about Romero's zombies and I agree that in the genre it is possible, in Kirkman's world?? Who knows.....
I really don't see how zombies could get faster and more agile, if anything, as food runs out they should be getting slower and slower.
...
They shall fly with helicopters and they shall drive tanks and monster trucks.
That's the TV adaption. It's not the best portrayal of Kirkman's world.
His explanation is that some walkers are more 'determined' to eat their targets then others.
Zombies get infinite ammo cuz their too dumb to reload -_-
I need to go to Hollywood to become a writer cuz ppls are stupid
