Hmmm.... thanks for the question. In my opinion, it is more balanced than ever.
The main issue is survivor scrounging tends to be a form of AP banking.
Now that zombies can block repairs and barricades, the human AP-pool/equipment is being taxed at a much higher rate than I'd ever seen before. Now a human must be equipped for combat... you can no longer just play a support character. Gone are the healers and scientists, everybody needs to kill the undead before stacking the plastic trees. I think the only major imbalance is that humans are a little more fun to play... until we get a munch brains button. That would make zombies more fun fr the novice players. That's the real issue... the level 41 players can operate on both sides and have a hell of a lot of fun, if we could make it more seductive for the level 10 and under to play zombie, then it would level the playing field.
