Ever since /e thriller went from a suggestion to an actual emote in-game, I've started to wonder something else. Like /e thriller orginally,'' this is a BIG opportinuty that PR is missing out on unless he has his reasoning as to why this feature can not be implemented. ''

Emotes are currently only useable by survivors and survivors only. Im not sure if a zombiefied survivor can perform emotes, but I don't think you can. I think it'd be a cool feature if PR can add all the current and future emotes in R2DA to every current and upcoming mob in the game. R2DA is, for the most part, a pretty realistic zombie-survival game. To keep things interesting however, there are some unrealistic yet creative ideas such as the clock and cake boss fights, a toy sword that shouldn't do any damage to mobs, and the walking ball of fire/electricity that is the elemental. The emotes are more or less part of the creative/unrealistic ideas, being that people really wouldn't have time to break into a Kazotsky Kick (/e dance in R2DA) knowing that a horde wants to have thanksgiving dinner.

I would like to argue that PR should add emotes to zombies, partially to make games a lot more fun and interesting for all who play. It'd be funny to see a dabbing brute or a digger doing the lalaland. However, my real reasoning is also tied to the original /e thriller suggestion I made a while ago. Thriller is an almost sacred-like dance most commonly associated with zombies and halloween, and R2DA has both of those features (well...one all year round and the other during October/November). Only survivors can do the thriller, but in Micheal Jackson's video he was not the only one dancing, every other person dancing ''was a zombie. Even Jackson himself briefly turned to the dead to get down! ''Why can't zombies get down and do the thriller too? Adding emotes to zombies would be fun for everyone because it'd make for some pretty fun servers, ESPECIALLY around Halloween!

However, the one thing that might shoot me down is that PR might have his reasoning for why this can't be implemented. I dunno what it could be, but it might exist. If PR could implement this feature, I think it'd make everyone happy. I haven't seen anyone since I joined go for a suggestion like this, so why not be the first? I was the first to create a suggestion page on emotes, and look where that got me!

I leave things off, with the request that you watch this video with this post in mind. Perhaps it'll get you thinking about implementing this in the game ;)

Thank you for reading.
