New Zombies outrange the player while wielding a machete
New, NormalPublic

Description

Whenever fighting Zombies in the new patch i've noticed that they can hit me while I can't hit them using a machete. To me this makes no real sense because the Zombies don't have a weapon while I'm using(in this case) a half meter long knife. Furthermore I think the shock damage they do could use a little bit of a nerf because I've had trouble just fighting 2 Zombies at once them nocking me uncon in just about 5 hits.

Best Regards,
A fellow Survivor

An example of this was seen just now on TRMZ's stream.
https://clips.twitch.tv/CleanRelievedSpaghettiCopyThis-jC4pPpExDqy89-aU

TRMZ clearly starts the attack first with 2 swipes, misses both, yet the infected double overhead hands attacks and connects. (second time the infected hits him)

I feel a player with a knife in hand who is mid attack should get the upper hand over an infected without a mele.

Had this been just fists, I'd understand it.

I realise this footage is on a Modded map, but this is a clear example of what I'm seeing on Vanilla Cherno too.
