Zombies should convert all villagers to zombie villagers. Even in easy mode

Currently, zombies only have a 100% chance of turning villagers to zombie villagers after killing them when playing in Hard mode. But in easy mode, you have a 100% of your villager being lost forever when it is killed by a zombie. (Normal mode is 50% chance). Losing a villager is far worse than having one (temporarily) being changed to a zombie villager. The chances of converting to a zombie should be reversed for the difficulty modes (or even better should be 100% conversion to zombie villagers for all difficulty levels).

    I agree. It's especially annoying when you play on an smp with your younger siblings who can't handle hard mode very well, and you have to switch in to hard mode whenever you need to manually convert them... and even worse when a zombie somehow gets in and kills them when you're not even around. Baby Zombies are the worst in this case.

    Just switch to Hard mode if you want to make Zombie Villagers. I personally see the 100% chance of Zombie Villagers as a reward for switching to Hard mode. Besides, you can switch back from Hard mode after making Zombie Villagers, so it's not that bad.

    But I think that making this a gamerule or an option in the world settings is something I would like to see, so I'm voting on this post.

    This would improve the SMP experience greatly. Ensuring that the chance is always 100%, or that it at least depends on some in-game mechanism, gives players on servers more control over their experience.
