Zombie Plans-Revised

[Alg]

Hence the "maybe" and "if" :lol:

[WolfBoy989]

A rocket launcher is too bulky to carry over a distance and is useless even if you're moderately close because of the debris that gets shot everywhere. And its serious overkill...

 

 

 

There's no such thing as overkill in a zombie apocalypse.

 

 

 

All you need to do is shred the zombies brain. The rest is overkill.

With Prototype having come out recently, a rocket launcher is no longer overkill, but a bare minimum. That is, assuming the GENTEK strain. Basically the whole GENTEK strain does as follows:

 

 

 

-Grants super strength, shapeshifting, increased speed

 

-Ability to regenerate by absorbing others alive

 

-Retains all consciousness and works intelligently

 

 

 

Basically, this is the new zombie we shall refer to.

If you stopped the zombie then that's good enough. Method won't matter, just as long as it works.

[Lenin64]

There's no kill like Overkill.

[mmmcannibalism]

A rocket launcher wouldn't be awful against a large hoard of zombies, the initial blast is going to kill a few and the shockwave will probably disable a good portion by breaking enough bones and causing muscle damage. The noise means it should only be used if handy and if we are already facing down most of the zombies in the area, but its not like a machine gun where it would be wasting ammo.

So basically...

 

 

 

1: Set up nukes.

 

2: Zombie apocalypse arrives.

 

3: ???

 

4: Profit!

Yup

 

Sounds good to me, but instead of the nukes let's use you as bait.

Yup

Instead of bait, sacrificial offering to nothing in particular.

 

 

 

Also, we SHALL NOT be referring to prototype zombies, as that is unlikely to happen.

 

We shall still be referring to the ultimate survival guide zombies.

 

 

 

Thirdly, rocket launchers will be massive overkill and dead weight, more likely to get you killed than save you. Plus, by firing one, you will effectivly stick a sign into your head saying "EAT ME" to nearby zombies.

 

 

 

And fourthly, 20 nukes in the earths crust, will annihilate most life on earth (depending on where they are placed)

 

and humans will basically have a 0% chance of survival due to our sensitivity to radioactivity.

 

 

 

Yes, I bet you are thinking "Who made him boss?" but there are so many wrong statements in the last two pages that I felt the need to intervene.

 

So yeah.... :

I still lurk in this topic you know. I will still be feared.

 

 

 

So now, I propose some questions.

 

 

 

So I read through a manga which has a zombie invasion (though they are referred to as "them") as its main theme (PM me for link, it's not G-Rated, so, unless mods have an issue, I will send a link to users, with a warning). Basically, it was some High School students (in Japan no less), who deal with an invasion due to a disease.

 

 

 

So, I'll move onto my questions now my reason why is out the way.

 

 

 

1) Do you honestly think you can handle killing?

 

2) Do you think it would change you as a person?

 

3) Would you think you'd go insane and start a cult with free love? (haha, had to ask that)

 

4) Do you consider a smaller group to be an advantage?

 

5) Do you have any problems with killing an infected teammate, knowing it saves their pride by not turning into one of "them"?

 

6) Can you be able to leave people behind if you cannot save them?

 

7) Assuming that "they" work on the basis of sound, then scent, then sight, would you be willing to walk in socks/barefoot to be silent?

 

8) Do you consider a smaller group (less than 10) to be an advantage?

 

9) A man driven to insanity is about to rape someone, he has had to kill his family, do you wound him and leave him for them to find, or do you kill him?

 

10) You have found a place with other survivors, a leader is struggling, do you give them a handgun, and enough ammo to kill everyone to keep order? The leader then struggles to stop someone raping another, do you kill the person, or merely choke them?

 

 

 

(I'll wait for a few replies, then put up what I feel.)

[Wisp]

I know you said pm, but I'm responding to your post anyway, so shoot me a link, I'd like to see it.

 

 

 

 

 

Anyhow, your questions.

 

 

 

1: Killing a living human for no reason, I wouldn't do. Killing a zombie or a bandit I could do.

 

2: Probably not. For anyone with problems with blood, the fact that zombies blood isn't like human blood in color, texture, etc. might help.

 

3: There's always that chance.

 

4: Depends on the situation. For a very long term situation, I wouldn't want a tiny group. In general though, yea.

 

5: We'll find out. I could do it if I needed.

 

6: If necessary.

 

7: If I needed to. I have some leather soled shoes that are quieter than bare feet, and a lot easier to move in, so I'd use those.

 

8: Already covered in 4

 

9: I probably shoot him in the face.

 

10: I don't know. Unless I needed a place to stay, I'd probably leave them be if it put me at a risk. And for rape? I shoot them or kill them. It's not like they're stealing food to survive, and it would come out in some other way which would hurt the team. They don't deserve to live.

[Skull]

1) Do you honestly think you can handle killing?

 

A zombie, yes. Another human, maybe depending on the circumstance.

 

2) Do you think it would change you as a person?

 

Yes. I'd probably be a bit harder, more cynical. But I'd also be alive.

 

3) Would you think you'd go insane and start a cult with free love? (haha, had to ask that)

 

Nah, insanity isn't likely for me I don't think.

 

4) Do you consider a smaller group to be an advantage?

 

In some situations. A smaller group can move undetected better and you're likely to know and trust everybody. In a large group you wouldn't be as well acquainted with everyone else and are less likely to know what to expect from them. It's also easier to hold short term locations and to feed a small team on the go. You can easily find enough food for five, but you'd have trouble getting supplies for fifty. However, in a long term encampment you could work on holding a perimeter, keeping everyone fed, making repairs or building new structures with a large team far more easily. So it depends.

 

5) Do you have any problems with killing an infected teammate, knowing it saves their pride by not turning into one of "them"?

 

I would do it if they weren't willing or able to pull the trigger themselves and I would expect the same from any of them were I to be infected.

 

6) Can you be able to leave people behind if you cannot save them?

 

It would be difficult, but yes I think I could. It would be hard on me though, especially if I were leading. I might end up trying to be a hero by sending my team on and going back myself if I thought they still had a chance though.

 

7) Assuming that "they" work on the basis of sound, then scent, then sight, would you be willing to walk in socks/barefoot to be silent?

 

I'd go barefoot covered in mud if it meant stealth. Survival outweighs comfort 100% of the time.

 

8) Do you consider a smaller group (less than 10) to be an advantage?

 

See #4.

 

9) A man driven to insanity is about to rape someone, he has had to kill his family, do you wound him and leave him for them to find, or do you kill him?

 

I would try to restrain him, etc before any killing or wounding. So long as he isn't infected there's a chance he'll calm down. However, between the two, I would shoot to kill.

 

10) You have found a place with other survivors, a leader is struggling, do you give them a handgun, and enough ammo to kill everyone to keep order? The leader then struggles to stop someone raping another, do you kill the person, or merely

 

choke them?

 

I would try to establish order if I could or take some of the survivors into my group to lessen the other leader's burden. As for rape (which seems like it wouldn't happen all that often with zombies all over the place, but whatever) I would do the same thing as doom would.

 

 

 

Oh, and send me the link too. I'll pm you anyways.

[Kiriyama]

Oh crap, I put the same one down twice.

 

 

 

It's interesting seeing your response though.

 

 

 

Remember, while "they" are not human, they still look human, so can be harder to kill.

 

 

 

Anyway, I'll put my answers down.

 

 

 

1) I honestly don't know if I could until the time comes, though, I'd likely have no problems killing in a life or death situation.

 

2) It will change me I think, my main priority would become more of being that of survival.

 

3) Heh, I just put this in as a joke, I wouldn't do it.

 

4) Personally, like Doomsavenger, I say it also depends on the situation, though at the start, I definately want a smaller group for survival.

 

5) If it is their wish to die, rather than become one of them, I would grant it, though with a little difficulty, as they are still human.

 

6) I'd have to say it depends on the person, for example, I'd have a lot more trouble leaving behind a young child than one who is elderly.

 

7) I asked that to Mage_Man through MSN, I'd go barefoot.

 

8) My mistake there.

 

9) If I had an easy means of escape, I'd injure him so he is no problem, then leave him to feel the pain from zombies.

 

10) If I had to stay there for awhile, I'd be glad to help to preserve order, since I'd likely be hiding most of the weaponry where they cannot find it, who knows how many will want to try killing the zombies when there is not enough ammo to kill them all, and it would only attract more.

[mmmcannibalism]

9) A man driven to insanity is about to rape someone, he has had to kill his family, do you wound him and leave him for them to find, or do you kill him?

 

 

 

shoot to kill, if the first ends up being non fatal leave him to save ammo

[Lenin64]

1) Do you honestly think you can handle killing? Yes. Especially with something as cold and distant as a bullet, easily.

 

2) Do you think it would change you as a person? Probably not. Maybe, not sure how.

 

3) Would you think you'd go insane and start a cult with free love? (haha, had to ask that) If I were to go insane, it wouldn't be to start a cult, mate.

 

4) Do you consider a smaller group to be an advantage? Yes. Quiter, better teamwork, more manueverable and easier to manage resources/

 

5) Do you have any problems with killing an infected teammate, knowing it saves their pride by not turning into one of "them"? No.

 

6) Can you be able to leave people behind if you cannot save them? Not alive. If they were unsaveable, they would become Ol' Yeller.

 

7) Assuming that "they" work on the basis of sound, then scent, then sight, would you be willing to walk in socks/barefoot to be silent? Why wouldn't I? I wear socks all the time anyway, sometimes without my shoes. If I had to take my socks off, I'd still be fine, but it may make me noiser because I'm not used to it.

 

8) Do you consider a smaller group (less than 10) to be an advantage? R-r-r-r-r-r-r-repeat.

 

9) A man driven to insanity is about to rape someone, he has had to kill his family, do you wound him and leave him for them to find, or do you kill him? If the man's insane, he's useless. I don't want him maiking my team members useless as well. Poppin' a cap.

 

10) You have found a place with other survivors, a leader is struggling, do you give them a handgun, and enough ammo to kill everyone to keep order? The leader then struggles to stop someone raping another, do you kill the person, or merely choke them? What do you mean by "a leader is struggling?" Struggling to keep order? Someone unable to keep order themselves should not be in power, and helping them wouldn't make his group very effective. All about morale. So, no. And as for the raping (why are you so intent on having people rape each other, anyways?) I'd do what I said before. Of course, this entire scenario depends on whether or not I'm travelling alone or with a group. I might just absorb this group into my own. Or pass by them wordlessly, maybe trade for suuplies if I were alone.

[Wisp]

Wow. This whole zombie thing has [bleep]ed me up. I was in my garage, about to help my mom with something outside, and I specifically thinking about which things I could use in case of zombies.

 

 

 

I found a lot.

 

In my garage alone I found

 

3 axes

 

2 titanium crowbars

 

1 chainsaw (Yeah, I know, not a good weapon. But if I have gas, and other weapons, it's always a possibility

 

1 really sharp metal spear like thing, designed for making holes for fence posts

 

1 sledgehammer

 

1 machete

 

 

 

Well I think I'm set for melee weapons.

[Lenin64]

I know Dzi irl

 

I am so sorry.

Our survival in a world overrun with zombies is roughly the same as that in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone; small bands surviving with little more than our wits and tactics. Gear, therefore, would be fairly similar (though remove the recommended alcohol, no random radiation pockets around yet).

 

 

 

And yes, STALKER contains zombies-Romero zombies, even, sorta-so don't start in on that.

never never use a chainsaw, its not meant to be a weapon and its just going to get you killed(while making noise to attract more zombies). I cant think of the name but arent the fence post drillers far too heavy to wield as a weapon?

[Wisp]

I know how to use a chainsaw well, there's not much chance of me injuring myself with it, and none of the other things were designed to be used as weapons. I wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary, but it's also useful some other stuff I would have to do to ensure my safety based on my house.

 

 

 

And the fence thing isn't mechanized, it's just a really sharp metal rod about 4 feet long. It might not ever be for fences, but whatever it is, it would be deadly.

[mmmcannibalism]

I still dont think a chainsaw is a good idea, while you may be quite skilled at practical use, it being a weapon is going to cause trouble.
