Way to much work for a gimmick.
Having to do all those skins and effects just for perhaps a Halloween event isn't worth the trouble.
A Zone where everything is Zombiefide perhaps via Dimensional portal at Portal corps.
Another flaw in this is the "OH MY GOD" reaction of the players. Many years ago Neo Pets had all the pets Monsterized for one day. Not sure it was Halloween or April Fools. The Reaction of the players was disappointing to say the least. Many Neo-pets were deleted because the Player didn't know it was temporary. Some accounts were dropped all together.
So in hindsight of that, messing with what works don't work. Even Temporary.
Zombie mode... not a one day event... and you are taking it waaaay too seriously
Well not really. Look you sated Zombie Versions of NPCs. Right there that means having to do new skins for the NPCs. That a lot of work for the Art team.
And all the weapons would become fire based or decapitation friendly weapons ^.^
Right there is recoding all the powers to be Fire based. Or add new animations involving Decapitation.
Now don't get me wrong I love Zombies. Heck look at my Avatar and my Name ROTTEN LUCK! So having a Marvel Zombie like thing would be something I could sink my teeth into.
However from the perspective of non Zombie fans it would suck. The amount of work required would be huge for a select group of the population wouldn't be worth it.
Ask yourself this if they put in Zombie Mode as an option how about Furry mode. Or Fairy mode (everyone a Fairy) would you use those as well?
Again a Zone like Croatoa where everything is Zombiefide would be fun and interesting. A system where EVERYTHING is Zombiefide would be to much work and even for someone like me would get Old Fast.
Perhaps your not taking it seriously enough or explaining your idea fully for me to understand your meaning.
Sense of humor...I think you need one.
You know I just read an articule in PSM about the overuse of zombies in gaming. It was about the zombie code in Skate 3 and in COD. Zombies are kinda falling out of style now.

Clearly we need more Nazis now. Then the cycle can begin anew.
The off-beat space pirate...Capt. Stormrider (50+3 Elec/Storm Science Corruptor)
The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

As such, I really think that we're due for more Dinosaurs entering the mainstream. It's been a while since the last Jurassic Park, right?
Maybe Banshees? Or Leprechauns? Dark Gods of an unspeakable nature?

total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.
I liked Leprechaun until he went to the hood. The Irish do not belong in the ghetto. And Sticky Fingas is a crap actor.
It would be funny to have a way to replace all the NPCs with Zombie versions of themselves...
The citizen NPCs would all become vahzilok
The MOBs would all get zombified
The Icon NPCs would all get zombified
And all the weapons would become fire based or decapitation friendly weapons ^.^
