A fun infected or zombie survival gamemode?

Imagine trying to survive against survivors that are zombies. Would it be fun to try 1v16 or 1v32?

The gamemode is either this:

You're the Nemesis. You have to try to down the survivor and infect them before the survivors create a cure. Survivors that got killed turns into a zombie that have to help the nemesis basically turning sides. The gameplay goes on even if you're killed but now you join the killer side. It could be an interesting and interactive gamemode?

Or we could do it without nemesis and just have an infected survivor. What'd you think?

There could be special tools and defensive equipments to try and stop an onslaught of hordes so you don't feel like you're just running around trying to survive but to build and collecting resources as well as thinking about as a team to develop a cure.

    I think when they asked on the survey for different game mode ideas a long while ago, some kind of Zombie mode was suggested. (I think? it's been awhile haha). And My Little Oni, 2v8, Chaos Shuffle and Lights Out were all on the same survey. So I think there's a very good chance some kind of game mode like this will make it's way around.

    In theory it sounds fun!

    Wonderful idea. That way everyone can keep playing even if they died.

    It might be hard to have a mode necessitate a licensed member of the cast some players might not have unlocked, so having Nemesis involved could be a kink to work out, but that sounds like a really fun idea honestly. Alternatively, a regular infection style game mode where a survivor team has to work to escape while their teammates slowly turn would be a lot of fun without a regular killer involved.

    Either way, yes please! Maybe that would come with a Walking Dead Chapter or Paragraph too.

    Anyone remember Virus mode in Timesplitter series? Something like that would be fun if they gave survivor's a way to defend themselves reliably.
