Oh yes, we'll have this.
But it wont continue ATTACKING you, because this would be too difficult.
But you will be able to frag and dismember them on death

BTW, I was thinking......which is rare...but, I hope your not going to overpower the chainsaw (as in Doom 3). Also would it be possible to add some kind of ammo / fuel stat for it ? I'd imagine people ducking in corners just mowing down everything that comes close if they had unlimited "sawing power"

Actually, I think the chainsaw should be fairly expensive to buy, but be moderately powerful. After all, it won't be any fun to use if it's too weak to really be useful. The idea of limiting it by fuel/ammo is a good solution for balancing it, I think.

The Chainsaw will use Gasoline canisters, and the more you use it, yep the more you run down your reserves. Ammo will be costly as will the base item itself, but it is without reservation, the most powerful melee weapon in the game.
That is not to say, however, that it is without it's downfalls. For one thing, the axe will have a broaders "sweep" so as to be able to hit a row of enemies at once, same with the bat. Where the chainsaw has a more narrow target area.

Here is a Good Off-Topic Question since you talked about Running out You're Reserves and all. How Long are the Maps going to be in the Full Release? O.o It'll be funny playing it for 1hr str8 (i mean thats kinda cool) trying to escape zombies with ur friends for hrs at a time? XD hahah too bad the maps cant be like Blocks long... (like a huge open enviroment type of gameplay) i.e 28days later, or Resident evil xD, or Silent Hill. =O
