ATTN Treyarch - repeated Monkey issue

[Chopper]

Hey guys, anyone else noticed the massive increase in issues with zombies ignoring monkeys?

4 out of 5 downs yesterday over 2 games were caused by this. It generally happens when you have something extra to go with the regular zombies, so eithers knights or the Panzar.

There's nothing more frustrating than spending a couple of hours getting close to 60 and then having the game end through not much fault of your own.

Yep, happened to me on round 50 on one game. I had gone down training around the jug generator, threw a monkey as soon as l revived and went for jug. And bugger me, as soon as l turned around after buying jug, they all swarmed me while the f'n monkey was still going! :x

Four hours and my second down, was l pissed.

Whats the issue with me?cant just say it too my face???Sorry,saw an opportunity. :lol:

[MysteryMachineX]

This happened to me as well. : /

From the BO1 days zombies would chase the monkey regardless.

On BO2 once the monkey is tossed if you are closer than they will come for you. Try to think of monkey as the white player on how it attracts.

I am convinced.

The zombies are getting smarter.

I've actually noticed a few things about it. I think it's like the grenades in fire on transit, you know they don't explode. What I noticed is that when I throw monkeys in mud they don't go for it, so what I started doing was only throw them on generator pads and stuff.

I Get this same problem as well so now whenever I get monkeys I just throw them at the zombies head its funny and passes time.

Mato died on 100 due to monkeys ignoring zombies. I have myself experienced this in first few days of Origins launch. It could be intentional or not for treyarch to have sloppy monkeys.One reason I always go for Airstrikes right away.

At the end of round 3 head out towards tank station, your mission is to find all the parts from the ground for ice staff and also obtain airstrike grenades before round 8. Pick up brofist stone from the table in tank station. Open up to the workshop leading to no mans land. Find parts for the "zombie shield". If not go the other way towards generator 3. Use Mauser whenever you can to maximize points. Get Jugg right away, Craft zombie shield next to wind cave build-able. Get Stamin up and MP40. Head up to church and Place bro-fist stone in church fountain and kill some zombies using zombie shield. If shield wears out simply run away if you can or horde them up else where then re-buy shield and lead them back to the church near the stone. Patience is the key. Also you can get lucky with insta-kill. Head back to tank station at the end of round 6 or earlier so you can get some kills there to obtain Airstrikes.

Just got to round 43 and threw a monkey to buy me time to reload my HAMR and Fire Staff. After I threw it I reload n started to hop away but the whole time hopping they were still chasing me! I threw a 2nd one and it worked but WTF?!?! I hope it's fixed soon. Didn't go down just wasted a monkey.

Air strikes have the same issue. Died on round 69 today from zombies just ignoring the air strikes... threw one near Jug after I went down so I could buy it. Bought it, turned around, half my horde had me trapped in the corner while the other half sat by the air strike. Game over.

It's pretty stupid because it's almost exactly like MotD's Acidgat, sometimes they are attracted to the acid, sometimes not. This is just like it, and it's very upsetting to die like that. Would be nice if this was fixed.

Happends to me way to often I only depend on them while turning on gen. Or to help filling boxes if you get a zombie blood after the boxes and gen. Are done it helps finishing rounds a lil faster but DO NOT RELY ON MONKEYS TO GET OUT OF A JAM that seems to be when they glitch is after you get down or when getting overrun when you actualy need um
