Zombie Plans-Revised

[sarg1010]

If the zombies are like in the movies, slow and so, i'd just ram through them with my arms straight and punch them while i run..

 

 

 

What happens when you trip/ all the zombies you knocked down suddenly pile up and you cant push them anymore... you'll be right in the middle of a hoard... :ohnoes: #-o

[mmmcannibalism]

hmm

 

 

 

I would go to a hospital(I know the guide says never but wait) after the initial outbreak when everyone has already been zombified. I would bring all the 22 rifles and ammo I could get just to do some sniping. After taking all the edible food out of the cafeteria I would get to either the top floor or roof depending on how well i could remove the ways up to the top floor. This way I am stocked up on food medical equipment and probably a lot of water and a large building.

 

 

 

plan b is to go to the greenbrier government bunker in my state of west virginia. the retired one that was the bunker in case of nuclear war lol

 

 

 

edit--plan c, if all else fails and I have no chance of escape i go streaking with a spear and a machete, why streaking you ask? If im streaking at least the zombies will go blind :shock:

[Ouchy]

Mine would be grabs my dads saw, hammer, and any other tools and hack away at them. Although I would probably end up running away and hiding somewhere. :-#

A lot of people seem to believe that there is one type of zombie, well in retrospect when this thread was made I forgot that due to the media, there are a lot of types of zombies. Now, lets just step back and collect our breath, and shotguns, and think about alternative plans if worse comes to worse. So, to make this more discussion worthy my question is this which type zombie would you say, in your opinion, would be the worst to fight. This includes zombie types from any form of media.

[mmmcannibalism]

guess I have to rewrite some plans then, though officially the only real zombies are the soma zombies

 

 

 

well to repeat if we are fighting slow soma zombies then I wait till a hospital has been turned then sneak in take all the food to the top floor or roof take out the stairs and wait. Oh, and id take a 22 rifle and as much ammo as i could get up there with a machete hatchet and anything else handy I could take.

 

 

 

if we are fighting "super" zombies that can run faster then humans are stronger then us and such I would start making grenades and get to the back of a long hall hoping to frag anything that comes near me. Super zombies would probably be near unbeatable because their numbers would swell very fast.

 

 

 

oh but of course streaking carrying a machete is always a good backup plan

 

 

 

what other kinds of zombies are there? Id be glad to state my bad plans for them to 8p

Well I said all media so that includes video games. Head crab zombies and fast head crab zombies, the flood, and necromanced zombies (these ones are a little tough to deal with as some do not have heads) for starters.

 

 

 

Personally, I would probably be the one to raise a zombie army using necromancy.

[Lenticular_J]

Argh, I've been playing half-life 2 so much whenever I see a black spider I expect it to be a black headcrab -_-

[mmmcannibalism]

well for flood or head crabs my plan would be getting a sub machine gun or shotgun with the same stradegy of getting to the top of a large building

 

 

 

for necromancy zombies just for defense id be getting 10 gauge shotgun shells just because that has some nice stopping power. To get rid of the zombies Id dig a trench fill it with flammable stuff get a nice roaring fire going. Then id get some friends to help me and use spears/shields to push the zombies in. See page 187 of the zombie survival guide for where i got that idea

Is your fire ditch plan dependent on the zombies being the slow, staggering type?

[Evaluate]

Well, first off, I'd pray that they weren't like the zombies in Resident Evil, because a lot of those things are wicked hard to deal with, since they can use weapons instead of just claws/teeth. Like crossbows...and chainsaws...and chainguns. :o

 

 

 

If they weren't, I'd hop in a truck, drive about 2 miles down the road to the sporting goods store and load up, then head off to Walmart. There's so many things to defend yourself with there, and if you use a little brains, you can make some deadly stuff out of common materials. Like bombs out of propane tanks and spray deodorants. This is only if they're not very intelligent though. If they're like the above zombies, my plan is to grab as much food as I can and hide in a very out of the way place, since an average Joe like me stands zero chance against a chaingun.

well it would work on zombies with normal human abilities as long as they werent smart. also dependant on them not being good climbers. It could work with any type of zombie that can be caught in a ditch I guess

[Cyco_Reborn]

I would declare my vegetarianism!!! Zombies dont eat vegetarians- Not enough meat on us!!! \

Yeah vegetarians don't have enough brains for zombies to eat :lol: You set me up for that one.

For that, I shall throw infected zombie guts at you!!!!

Only at all realistic type of zombie is the solanum zombies, but if we are talking about fast, smart zombies my plan would be just to get into a bomb shelter filled with supplies, and hope they are all gone before I run out, or get on a oil platform.

There's also the I Am Legend and 28 Days/Weeks Later varieties. They both use viruses, and are actually not too far off from possibility.

 

 

 

Oh, and as a little side-note, what are you going to do about food? Or even for a plan B? I can't imagine that most people would know how to operate an oil platform and maintain it, let alone survive that long in the middle of the ocean. Being in a bunker x meters under the ground isn't too much better, either. For someone who knows about solanum, you don't seem to be too keen on the long-term survival strategies.

[Wisp]

Well, for a start, an oil platform can just be shut off. It's just the safest possible place, barring a hurricane. There is already a lot of food on it, but I could bring whatever I had with me, and fish.

 

The bunker is just vs. fast/climbing/smart zombies. Not much you can do about them, other than a big fortress.

 

If I happened to have a bomb shelter, I probably would of stocked it with MRE's, which could last me 4~ years for 10000$ worth. I live on top of a mountain in one of the smallest towns in the country, so there wouldn't be many zombies, unless I made too much noise. I could probably grow some stuff outside to eat, or hunt, or whatever.

 

The I am Legend ones aren't really zombies exactly, and I haven't seen 28 days/weeks later.

 

 

 

If it was just versus the normal slow, stupid, can't climb zombies, I would, if I could, get to an island in the ocean, and grow food, but if not, I would try to get to an island in the lake near my house, only the occasional zombie would wonder on to it.

 

An ocean island that won't have winters, or can grow stuff year round is the best case scenario.

[Orpheus]

Argh, I've been playing half-life 2 so much whenever I see a black spider I expect it to be a black headcrab -_-

 

 

 

Those things are the death of me on Hard though, because something nearby finishes me off, who's to say a horde of them could try to kill you though?(they instantly drop you to 1HP, but can never kill you, and you regenerate it back anyhow)

 

 

 

I'd just try to get on a rooftop, lock it off, and just sit there, cigarette/blunt in hand, and just chill out while I wait on the military to come and clear out the zombie horde.

[jjrox32]

Alright, so I'd assemble of team of me, an old Vietnam vet, a rich kid, and a hot chick. Then we fight endless hordes of zombies, both slow and special, using teamwork to survive. After many close calls, we end up in safety and live happily ever after. Then we go on and have a video game made about us.

[Wisp]

Change of plans, screw you guys, I'm getting one of these, filling it with food, and living in it till zombies are gone.

 

I'm safe.

 

I could store like 100 years worth of food in that, and could probably modify it so I get solar power from the surface.

repopulate faster than they can kill. 8-)

are your zombies really stupid? I mean it would take ages just to keep the population from spiralling down in numbers

Hell,each baby you make is a potential baby zombie.Zombies are stupid,but not THAT stupid.It would take at least 9 months to repopulate,no?Zombies can kill faster than that.

[Legosimx]

Organized military resistance? I mean come ooooon the easiest way to defeat a zombie invasion. :lol:

 

 

 

Anyway, I do infact have a plan. Long summer days with nothing for me and my friends to do.

 

 

 

1) We all make it to Nathan's house, and bring our weapons. We each alos bring the asigned items from the list.

 

 

 

2) We live in the contry, so we estimate a good 48 hours grace period before zomvies arive. We spend ~30 hours uparmouring Nathan's dad's dumptruck (aboutt he size of an Ford F-150). Pile in supplies.

 

 

 

3) Drive up he road to Marty's house, and raid his dad's gun supplies, and of course his stash of Karosine in his garage. We figure by this time we have ~10 hours before we need to get out, so we get snapping on rigging up a flamethrower to the cabbin of the truck.

 

 

 

4) Meet up with Shane's group of friends from Albany around or near Van Ellen farm about 10 minutes up the road. They will have an up armoured Chevy. They are in charge of suppling most of the weapons.

 

 

 

5)Get ourself down to Fort Dix, NJ to meet up with my Uncle. In case of Zombie attack, I am sure the military will be happy to see some extra fighters. A fully armed and equiped Army base is probably the best place to be during a zombie invasion. AH-64 Apache's? Yes please may I have another?

[anonymous1234]

I just realized, zombies are perpetual energy. They don't eat, breathe, or have solar panels, yet somehow they manage to move. where is this energy coming from? nowhere, that's where.
