It's 1998 and you are trapped in Raccoon city during the events of Resident Evil 2 in your apartment almost dead center in the city. Most others attempted to flee, but you hunkered down inside and tried to wait it out. Unfortunately, now that seems impossible. The city is going to be nuked in several hours and you now need to get the flying fuck out of there asap. In the streets you run the risk of encountering the normal infected, lickers, and sometimes even large bio weapons such as Mr. X or Nemesis. Not only that, but there are umbrella death squads roaming the streets and picking off survivors. You are not a main character with plot armor, nor are you a trained umbrella operator. You are simply a gun autist who hits the range occasionally. My question to you, anon, is this:>What is your loadout to give you the best fighting chance of making it out of the city?While the game IS set in 1998, for this scenario, that doesn't matter and let's say you can bring anything a normal civilian would feasibly be able to own in the year of 2026. What are you bringing?
>>65366494Honestly, I'm going simple and affective for my main. For the normal infected and lickers, I'll choose an sp5k with an frt trigger and a suppressor, of course with an optic as well. Probably just a 1x trijicon. It's good if you focus on headshots for the zombies, and suppressed 9mm will definitely do good at mitigating attracting more infected with the noise. Also, the frt will allow for crowd control for bigger crowds of zombies. For my secondary, I'm gonna need something with alot of stopping power for the BOWs that won't jam when I'm in a tight spot. For that, I'm going with a modern Marlin 1895 in .45-70. +p loads out of this can bring down a Kodiak grizzly bear, let alone any BOW that comes my way. If it doesn't instantly take it down, I'm certain a .45-70 round to the head will stun it long enough for me to create distance between it and myself. Finally, my sidearm. For this, I'm simply going with a Beretta 92A1. I am very familiar with the platform and it shares ammo with my main. It's there as a last resort and I'm definitely keeping one round left in one of my pockets for myself in case I get corned by zombies with no way out. Getting eaten alive would fucking suck.
I rest easy knowing that viruses can't magically defeat the biological reality of a decaying corpse.7-10 days from outbreak the masses will simply cease to function.All else are handily dispatched via AR15.Survivors are shot.Reanimators are shot again.

>>65366537Ok, ok, okokokokokok.I'll be a good boy.Given your conditions, limitations, extra players, and forced ultimatum,Anyone who tries to play your game is actually dead within 1.75 hours.It's a single person against unlimited T virus flesh eaters, roving bands of kill on sight corporate clean up crews, other frantic survivors, and the hammer of God.You're all dead before the 2 hour mark.Happy now?
>>65366494Do I know about resident evil shit, or am I going in blind? Because if I know about it, then a 10/22 with a shitload of ammo, plus a bunch of accelerant to burn bodies would be the way to go. If I don't then probably a rifle or SMG chambered in whatever is most common among police and umbrella. Depends what games you're basing it on, RE2 had no assault rifles at all, while RE3 and the remakes had colt commandos out the wazoo.
>>65366494>full suit of chainmail with thick padding underneath to be bite and scratch proof>backpack with camelbak and basic first aid shit>AR-15>chest rig with extra ammo>pistol, I’ll bring my 9mm CZ with the 19 round mecgars>NODs since power is probably out>wear a tarp to try to disguise human outline>try to clank to the exit as quietly as possible
>>65366494Safest way is to evac through the river. As long as you move away from the sewage treatment plants, you probably won't even meet any of the gators and the rest of the Zombies can't get to you. The real hurdle is that any way you go, you'll have to break through at least one corpo hit squad checkpoint to get out and then defend yourself against a corpo hit squad helicopter for a couple hundred miles.That's not gonna happen without at least two machine guns and some type of armored vehicle.
>>65366494Idk, seems like you could probably avoid conflict altogether if raccoon city is just a small mountain town like it seemed in the early games and you keep your movement quiet, but every new appearance makes the city bigger and bigger. If you're dealing with over 100k zombies and every gunshot attracts more attention, I think there really is too much meat between you and freedom, especially if youre a real human bean and not an action hero who can walk off sucking chest wounds by eating some grass.
>rip up my clothes a bit>use flour on face for white look>hold pistol in hand>shamble out of the city>pop zombies that get too comfy
>>65366707Yep, sounds like the correct approach.I'd want to be rocking a Daewoo rifle with a fixed bayonet as my long gun, just because.
>>65366728That's where the M72 LAWs and M60E3 will come in play. Trust me guys, I'm totally an SOT.
>>65366494>50 AE desert eagle or some massive fuck off caliber revolverzombies and other creatures will rush to get right on you and you may not have both hands free, you will want a massive 'fuck you' caliber gun to fuck up the monster type creatures>beretta ultima patrolevery cop car & every zombified cop may have 12 gauge shells so ammo is about as plentiful as you can hope forno need to worry about saving mags or anything, just keep loading shells when you have the chanceflexibility with slugs and buckshot too, can potentially breach locked doors with it, theres a reason a shotgun is the default gun in zombie settings>suppressed beretta 929mm handgun, 15 round mags are standard, little recoil & accurate, worked for STARS it will work for methis would be the primary and hopefully also means you are less likely to be noticed by zeds with the suppressor>2 combat knivesone strapped to the chest, one strapped to my belt, both positioned so i can grab one easily with my left hand and the other with my right handcovers you if you need a knife but are holding something back but also means you dont have to fight to get a knife pulled out from bones when you are trying to get the hell out of dodgealso a flashlight on every gun except maybe the magnum level handgun would be necessaryi have zero idea how you can practically counter umbrella death squads as a civvie without plot armor, my hope would be by the point the nuke is about to drop that they are already gonethe biggest concern is running into one of the mutated creatures, a BOW, or the military having checkpoints out of the city & killing anyone who managed to escape to contain the spread
>>65366520it's only their skin and most of their brain that goes necrotic. the rest of their body continues to mutate. so the decaying corpses point is stupid, if anything they evolve into lickers eventually so waiting makes it worse.
>>65366678your first post was dumb enough, but this one convinced me you are retarded.

>>65366494RE threads are most comfier threads and i'm tired to pretend otherwise.
>>65366494>>65367767Yeah, the entire crux of the 90s/00s zombie craze was that you can use a gun, but it will alert the horde. Having a kitted out honey badger or whatever gay shit /arg/ is jerking off to at the moment sort of ruins that essential piece of the fantasy.

Short barrelled. 3 extra 200rnd boxes and a few 30rnd STANAG mags for emergency speed reload.
>>65366494The Colt SAA is so good in RE 2(original) It's like I'm cumming everytime I use it, best pistol in the series
>>65367966It's pretty good in the remake too. Definitely better than Claire's starting pistol.
I simply take shelter in the sturdiest building I can find and wait for the non-nuclear nuclear missile to wipe out all the monsters.
>>65368451It also didn't wipe out all of the monsters or even destroy all of the city even though the purpose of the missile pre-retcon was to avoid ever using Raccoon City as a setting again
>>65366494>You are not a main character with plot armorThen the only way out is pic related, any gun will do.
>>65368451The Dario strategy
11.5" psa ar-15.
>>65368466Didn't work out too well for him, either a zombie gets in there and bites him, or he was already infected before he shut himself in that shipping container. He maybe survives in the 3make, depending on how close he was to ground zero.
>>65368468Do they pay you for this?
>>65366494SIG Pro SP2009
>>65367966OK Arnold
1. HK MP5 with a suppressor and red dot.2. HK USP9 Tactical with a suppressor. Both are 9mm so ammo works for both, easing loadout. Suppressor to lessen number of zombies/death squads alerted. Since you need head shots for zombies, 9mm is perfectly fine. Plus HK is like peak 90s.
>>65366520>7-10 days from outbreak the masses will simply cease to function.*raughs in crimson head*
>>65369205I can see you glowing from here Mr. Umbrella Security Services
>>65369239they used .380 MP5s though
>>65369327did they? I dont recall the mac and mp5 ever being useable in the same game.
>>65366494I've got the perfect loadout for this back at home. Pic very much related.>Kendo gunworks Samurai Edge model A.WCan't go wrong with a samurai edge. Its suppressor helps to not attract lickers and it can even load anti-BOW rounds.>Kendo gunworks .50AE Lightning Hawk, 10 inch barrel.For when I gotta deal with the dangerous or big ones. Hunters, gators and the like. It'll prolly also stun tyrants for a bit.>Blue Embrella modified AA-12 "Thor's Hammer"It's an AA-12 on steroids in a zombie apocalypse. I don't need to explain why this is a nessecity. The hooks and claws at the front of the help with bashing zombieskulls too.
>>65366494Nineteen elebun, a combat shotgun, backpack with duct tape and vibrator eggs. I'm gonna go find sherry.
>>65369657Degenerate fuck
>>65369327In the remake, yeah, because that was the "machine gun" ammo. Think, is there even a .380 mp5 in real life?
>>65369657MODS

>>65369657Based
>>65370578The only mod in this town is Nemesis, and he's busy trying to permaban a couple of ex cops that have been shitposting on Umbrella's forums.

Definitely wearing my fm12 with red outserts and my pagst helmet for a drunken dollar general HUNK vibe since I am probably gonna get turbo fucked by a mr.x/nemisis, grave digger or a murder of zombie crows. Atleast I have the sippy straw with canteen for getting drunk on the go without much risk of contamination :)
>>65369785>>65370578
>>65366728It wasn't just alligators near the sewage treatment, the waters around Raccoon City were fucked...
Loadout would be a Gordy style CAR15, Witness Protector 870, given we are in RE universe a Dan Wesson PPC since swagnums have mystical firepower boosts, and a Beretta 92f given that's what the local PD was issued for sourcing additional mags (though I'd prefer a HK USP 9).
>>65367238Is he wrong though?The odds are astronomical, none of us is going to survive this shit.And even if you survive, what do you think happens next?>lmao we'll just assume the nuke got everyone and leave it at thatFuck no there's going to be new deathsquads, probably with flamethrowers wiping out everything that still moves and they're probably not looking to hear you out....I'm going with an A12 and as many mags as I can carry, plus a few grenades in case things don'T go my may, because I don't want to get eaten.
>>65373189It's an English shark
>>65373153Absolutely disgusting case of grooming. Leon was barely more than a child, just out of the academy, hadn't even got his uniform yet.
I would probably grab this with 6 mags, and my glock with a few 17rd mags and a few 33rd sticks put back. The goal is to just beat feet and escape the city center.
