Let's be real, statistically speaking, in every movie the zombies always outnumber the survivors like one to a hundred thousand. So it's not like it'd be that easy to avoid becoming one. You'd probably just end up as another zombie in the horde.
Zombies are highly flammable and can be easily burned off, barely any shows or movies address this.
I live in Australia, so my only hope if I successfully flee Brisbane (very small chance considering all the zombies and hostile survivors I'd have to dodge) is to go deep into the outback and find gainful employment as a sharecropper in a surviving farmer community
No I am the main character
can zombies survive sub zero temperatures?
I have no skills, no job and no life.I'm not sure becoming a zombie would change much
Depends whether they are running or ambling. If the latter, it would be pretty easy as all you would need to do is identify some island and go there and occasionally return to scavenge etc. If the former, it really spends on whether it's a realistic scenario where the zombies will succumb to starvation or hypothermia or whether they somehow avoid that fate. In which case I would simply hide away in my attic and gather as much food as possible up there while remaining silent.
>>215597120A lot of viruses have a much higher survival rate in freezing temperatures than they do in hot, tropical ones, you know?
>>215597035Boomers are the most dangerous ones.
>>215597100you need much more fuel than the clothes they're wearing to burn zombies
>>215597035It depends on the "shelter" I end up in, but I would die first most likely before reaching anywhere. Assuming I managed to escape to a mall then everything is easy to control by slowly killing zombies from a high place, obviously with the help of someone, you don't need to waste any resource to kill zombies one by one. Assuming your biggest concern are other humans, moving the zombies with noise around to go gather stuff and then spreading them at the end of the day is a good idea too but too risky, I would be on favor of killing them all.
>>215597035Just make sure you keep your last bullet for yourself.Fuck if Im coming back as a ghoul.
>>215597035My county has a population density of 1 person per 2 square miles, so I'd probably be OK for a while.
>>215597035Americans will call the zombies fake and then when shown proof, willfully get themselves bitten to spite "science". Some will also boff bleach because an grifter politician told them to.
I'm already a zombie
>>215597717Non Americans will turn into zombies and instead of stumbling around moaning and thinking about “brains” they’d moan “Americans” instead
>>215597035If they're crossed style zombies then fuck no
Depends on the style of zombie. I could see myself surviving 30 days minimum, assuming I don't get sick or attacked I could probably eat the rice and other shit in my house, drink well water, and keep a few things on with the solar panels.>Romero or TWD style zombies that are powered by magic and infect with a biteMaybe, probably not though. These things don't die no matter what.>Viral zombies, sprintersMaybe, higher probability. Supposedly they'll just die off naturally. If I can figure out how to hide for a year I might be good.
>Remove stairs to second floor>Chill on the second floor until supplies run dry>Too scared to look for more>DiePretty much how I'd expect it to go.
>>215597035>you can't believe it>the fucking Zombie Apocalypse is actually kicking off!>you've waited your whole life for this moment>pinch me, I must be dreaming! >Look, there's real zombies coming right for us! SO COOL!>I'm about to have the most fun in my life! I'm going to survive better than anyone els-!>**Trip and fall hitting your head on a rock and die immediately**
I'm less worried about roving undead and more concerned about keeping medical supplies handy that will stop me from dying to sepsis the first time I cut myself. Them shits lose potency over time, ya know.
>>215597185a human being isn't equipped with blubber or massive amounts of fur usually so it doesn't matter if the virus can survive, the host would be destroyed by the elements.
>>215599407Pretty much the most foolproof zombie strategy. I loved Dying Light for having all the safe houses be accessed by jumping or climbing to them. Anyone that can't do a pullup or have some minimal athleticism would be dead meat quick
>>215597035>>215599491>a human being isn't equipped with blubber or massive amounts of fur usually so it doesn't matter if the virus can survive, the host would be destroyed by the elements.a human literally died in single digit hours in most weather without shelter. never heard of the rule of 3s for survival?die in 3 hours without shelter, 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food
>>215599416hes literally me
>>215597717It's genuinely funny how you dimwits still parrot the "drink bleach" fake news but think that everyone else is the easily fooled idiot.
>>215599866Epstein.
>>215597035Probably become a zombie while trying to save my loved ones cause I'm dumb. I wouldn't mind being a slow zombie that shambles around going on adventures, but it'd be lame to be a running one.
The current rules dont work for some of us and some of us might actually thrive in the zombie apocalypse. I think i could handle the zombies but i cant kill people and that would be my downfall.
>>215597035>in every movie the zombies always outnumber the survivors like one to a hundred thousandand how does it get to this point? realistically a zombie outbreak would not even make it into the global news. just a few crazy people getting gunned down by police or their neighborsi would survive for sure. chances are i would never even hear about it
I've played enough Project Zomboid to know how to deal with the real shit.
>>215597035I work in a hospital so I'm pretty much fucked. Will die in the initial wave and then wander around in my scrubs to create a nice thematic effect, if you guys loot my corpse you will find expired zyns, spare rubber gloves, my leatherman Raptor trauma scissors (useful) my keycard and ID (for my backstory and access to the medication room) and a black pen. What would people loot from all of your corpses? How would it affect the plot of another person's life?
>>215600209Upboated my man, fucking upboated...
>>215600271Sorry I forgot to mention trannies, politics, bbc, the culture war and something about an e-celeb.
Depends on if you can become infected by putting your penis inside their vagina or bum.
>>215597035I'd be the zombie that bites the black guy.
>>215597035I’d rape and pillage too much. Eventually I’d get my ticket punched.
*groaning* Tiiits.....TITS!
I'd choose to live even if my family were gone. In fact, my will to live is so strong I will literally survive the end of the universe.
>>215600209A stupid amount of knives. About 3-4 guns. A bunch of overpriced shit.
>>215600209I'd be like the loot zombie from L4D2, carrying tons of shit I never got to use due to terminal stupidity. Hopefully the main characters will look on my corpse laden with medical supplies and snacks, and reflect on the greed of the old world. If one of the characters becomes greedy I might stand back up and kill them in the end of act 3, hopefully literally pulling them down into a grave for maximum symbolic effect.
>>215600209>What would people loot from all of your corpses?Aluminum baseball bat. Use it well, Anon. Avenge us all.
>>215597101Listen Bub games the moment law breaks down it’s gonna be slavery again
>>215600917I'd be the first guy to try and find a zombie chick with intact tits and muzzle her, locking her in a pillory for rape and/or violence.
>>215597035The zombie apocolyps movies are actually about race-war.But back to the zombie subject. Reality is just find a remote place in the mountains and have lots of resources and a small group of people.And like a Dead reckoning vehicle like in Land of the dead.Just wait for the zombies to starve off.
>>215597120It dosen't really matter. When the body freezes, it's physically impossible to move, and causes cellular decay. Once a zombie is frozen solid, the damage to all muscle, bone, and organs would render the organism immobile after thawing. Even if it is 'undead' if it's muscles rot away, it can't move. Zombies wouldn't move around for very long anywhere because they would rot pretty quick. A few weeks, max.
>>215599407The characters in night of the living dead would have easily survived if they did that, at least until cooper's girl turned into a zombie
>>215597035I'd invite the zombies in and give them EBT. That's why they're being violent. They're just rebelling against an unfair, oppressive system.
>>215601671The whole point is they don't really know. It could be over in a day or waiting could be the worst mistake and they lose their only opportunity to escape. It's like the dumb woman in The Mist trying to make everyone feel bad for not going out into the fog with her to find her kid. Everyone just wants to hole up there. And of course it gets worse and worse seemingly without end
>>215597035I live in Florida near the ocean, so I could at least try the boat method of survival for a while, but yeah probably I would get got sooner or later.
>>215597035>hordeI live inna woods. There’d be no horde. Family member has a farm. We all have guns. We’d do fine. Also the zombies would rot within months and most of the world would make it through relatively fine.
>>215600940Hi zombie space dandy
>>215600187>and how does it get to this point?incubation period and other vectors like mosquitos
Perhaps. I live in a mining town in bumfuck nowhere arctic above the polar circle. I could probably escape into the taiga before shit hits the fan here and not a lot of people to be turned into zombies here in the first place
>>215602087Zombies do not rot and are not affected by bullets. The movie lied to you.
>>215597035zombies are so gay and so 2010
>>215602271Who died and made you fucking king of the zombies?
>>215597120This is a weird thing where, yes, ALL zombie fictions would be a non issue after 1 or 2 years because even if it takes two winters in a place that goes below zero most zombies would freeze and then break. I can excuse "but they don't eat though where do they get the energy," as just part of the virus' adaption making cells semi-immortal. Honestly it's like the biggest plothole of zombie fictions.
I have a 2 story house so I'm safe for the most part.
>>215597035I read this whole thread and I don’t think anyone mentioned the hardest factor would be other survivors. If you had food or something valuable, there’s a good chance you’ll get killed for it (or robbed or forced to give it to the military or anything) There’s a chance you’ll could join an enclave or community, but then you gotta adjust to some bullshit rules and who knows how they’d handle a crisis. Then there’s the chance of quarantine for years by force. Just remember how long COVID lasted. You could be stuck in some area for years, and it’s possible that you could get locked up for breaking some new rule. Then there’s cannibalism by people who aren’t even zombies too. The basic factor is you could probably beat slow walking zombies if you were smart. Most zombies would have a hard time moving after a few days due to decomposition. Its otherworldly factors that could screw you.
best bet of survival is staying at home at a house. staying out of sight is a better tactic than going to costco or elsewhere etc. Once you have their attention youre fucked.I used to think living in a block of apartments is a good idea because you can just destroy the stairs, but then youre trying to survive in a building with several dozen other homes with potential zombies in there too.Also think its easier to survive in UK than USA despite gun laws. Its easier to get supplies in UK at a typical corner paki shop, than in USA where the nearest place is 2 miles away and likely looted because its huge.
>>215602271>zombie canonlmao
>>215597035Depends how the virus spreads. If everyone turns from bites or deaths in general, thats manageable because everyone knows how zombies work by now.If the virus spreads from liquids, then you always need a protective suit when dealing with any zombie.If the virus is airborne, then we're all fucked.
>>215604251naw that's a fallacy forced by TWD nihilism.
>>215597185Yeah but human body is a different matter. Freezing a body destroys veins because liquids tend to expand when they freeze. So if the zombie dies from brain trauma, freezing its head should be enough to kill it when the liquids inside its brain pierce and swell the undead brain matter from every angle.
>>215604309being spread out is a good thing for burger suburbs. It means there's 0 chance of zombies being able to coalesce into a crowd. and lol at thinking you'll find some overlooked paki shop
>>215604251>I read this whole thread and I don’t think anyone mentioned the hardest factor would be other survivors.Only at the very beginning when theres full blown anarchy and panic going on. When certain groups become big enough they essentially become warlords, some semblance of hierarchy, control and normalcy becomes inevitable as a result. Then your life will essentially become like living under martial law where you're assigned a job and certain levels of personal freedom. Gangs that just destroy things for the sake of destroying don't last very long.
>>215597035Depends on the specifics of course, but I think if any did make it out to me, they’d be on the edge of death anyway. I’d be far more worried about desperate people moving through. I have a couple months of food + whatever’s in the pantry and a pond with lots of bream and catfish. The future would be uncertain after that started running out, but I don’t think zombies would be a big problem by then.
>>215600209Some dank ass weed boy
>>215597035ill go to india since zombies would avoid that country
I'm a fucking loner hermit so I doubt I would get infected during the outbreakBut I'm also a huge pussy so I would probably just starve to death at home
I'm ex military, codename Brownout. I think i'd be one of the last survivors.
>>215597035No lmao.If hundreds of millions die in the west, then I'm likely to be one of them.Also yjk if a guberment created zombie apocalypse happened irl it would be a gay one with fast zombies that are hard to kill, rather than one where the average person could potentially kill dozens of zombies.
>>215599866Why would the media lie to me, the taxpayer?
>>215599925Didn't kill himself?
>>215597326cant you just blast hairspray into zombies head/face. you're set
>>215604350Why the fuck do you retards keep talking about a virus? There's no fucking virus. That's not how zombies work at all.
>>215600209Just call in sick bro
>>215597035Slow zombies: YesFast zombies: NoI need to get into shape.
>>215597035id be dead day 1 or 2
>>215597101>killed by zombie emu
>>215597175this nigga is definitely dead first day
>>215606549well dont try to rape your hot zombie neighbor and you will make it to day 10
>>215600209Only thing of note in my wallet is a small cross pendant, one of the characters can take it out and comment about how they're in hell now or something
>>215597035If I got bit, I'd want to be a zombie like the ones in Warm Bodies
>live next to large river>get on boat with fishing gear>zombies lack ability to swim>sit back and relax on boat
>>215608467>zombies lack ability to swimwhere'd you get that dumb idea? zombies walk on the bottom of rivers and climb onto boats all the time
>>215608542Oh, how many boats have you been on with zombies on them?
Give me a baseball bat and shotgun, with preferably a lot of shells, and I'd do my best.
>>215608831>resting her chin on the barrel

>>215608542>ywn slowly kite massive hordes of zombies out into the middle of the Pacific Ocean and lead them into the Mariana Trench where the pressure will be so enormous their skulls will crush flat, their lungs will implode and they will all become fish food
>>215597035There would never be a zombie apocalypse because everyone knows what zombies are. It’d be figured out pretty quick. Everyone would quarantine and that’d be that. Depending on how long the quarantines last you’d probably see more people killed by starvation or by military/police for leaving their house than by zombies. But it wouldn’t be an apocalypse and I’d manage pretty well. I’ve gotta lot food stocked up, I have guns, and I’d buy more once I start seeing zombies on the internet and shit. Now if zombies were caused by an airborne infection and not bites. I wouldn’t last, and neither would any of you because statistically speaking we’d probably not be the >1% of humanity immune to it. And if we were I’d probably just end up killing myself because immune people would be spread out so far apart. There’d be no power, no water, no gas, infrastructure would fall apart. Food would go bad. You’d try to connect with other survivors and start a settlement but you die to zombies or other survivors who don’t trust you. It’d suck and I’d probably just shoot myself rather than suffer though it whe it became apparent it was hopeless.
>>215597035If I was that guy, I’d scale up the wall and drop down the other side and simply walk away. Realistically I’d never get surrounded like that in the first place. I’d collect a bunch of canned food, non perishables, gas, water, farming equipment, seeds, guns and what it then I’d put it all on my boat and take it all to one of the little islands not to far off shore and set up camp there, grow my own food. Take my boat back in and scavenge for more if I run out. It’d be fine. I’d probably just get bored.
I would be a zomby then i would die and become zomby goast
>>215597717Lol Americans are the only ones who’d survive thanks to our guns, military’s and police. You’d be hiding in your tiny apartment clutching a butter knife crying for the Americans to save you, again.
>>215597035if life became any less tolerable than it is at this exact moment, i would smoke myself immediately. no internet, electricity, or air conditioning means i'm fuckin' outta here. good luck, niggas. you got it. LOL
Huh? A "real" Zombie Apocalypse?Let's think. So they are just rotting corpses coming back to life, yes? No dark magic in place to enhance them and stuff, because then we don't need to run scenarios, right? When you start with magic shit, everything is possible and everyone is fucked.Then the actual zombie apocalypse would be over in 5 days. With no magic to keep the corpses intact, they will rot. Muscles and joints break down rather quickly, rendering them no threat.We neets are perfectly adapted to that. Just block the door and stay inside for 5 days. (make it 7 days just to be sure)Decay wins:-Without circulation or metabolism, muscle tissue breaks down within ~3 days.-Teeth fail: Gums rot fast; after ~5 days most can’t even bite.-Containment solves itself: Fewer functional zombies each day + less victims each day = limited transmission = rapid burnout.It's a completely self-limiting event that you just have to sit out. And you can even survive this without stockpiles of food. Just get enough water.Aftermath (the real problem):All the rotting corpses will contaminate heavy populated areas, which will bring a rise in rats and insects, resulting in plague-type illnesses spreading in the cities in an explosive epidemic.Contaminated water: Rivers and shallow wells stay unsafe for weeks to months.Sewage will be clogged, increasing the problems.So humans need to leave the cities for about a year after the initial week and live in rural uncontaminated areas until everything is cleaned up.
>>215609294a diverse gang of random punks, posers, metal heads, and nice guys and it just...works
>>215597035I would pretend I was a famous singer and those were my fansJust me playing Guitar *shwing!*
>>215597326the decomposition of the human body produces many gasses which are incredibly incendiary, in the family of sulphates and phosphates. this process continues underground for a very long time. on the surface a dead body would rot away to bones within 3 months, so surviving a zombie apocalypse would require staying away from population centers for about 90 days. which is very easy since all farms have well water, animals which provide milk and eggs and store their food in silos onsite. it would be as simple as everyone stay inside for 3 days until the zombies and infected all turn. then everyone organize food delivery online for the next 3 months. i live next to farms so the process would be trivial, i would probably just go grab eggs and milk from the farmer and deliver it to my neighbours.
Depends on the type of the zombie:>Fully realistic zombiesNo zombie apocalypse, biology doesn't work like that lmao.>Semi-realistic "infected" by shrooms/virus (28 days later, etc.)Initial outbreak would be hard, after that you just need to outlast them until this glorified rabies pandemic is over>Not-realistic at all/Supernatural (Night of the living dead, Land of the dead, etc.)Best bet is to gather up with other survivors and try making a fortified base/zone/castle while slowly destroying the zombies>Flat out supernatural/Lovecraftian (Lifeforce (1985), etc?)Try to figure out the source of the outbreak and pray to Cthullu the source is a "mere" Great Old One instead of a flat out Outer God
>>215609605You forgot the worst one, the pajeet migration apocalypse
>>215609645Has anyone ever done a story where there's a zombie outbreak and first world countries get it under control after a while, but there are shitholes like india that become just permanent zombie wastelands forevermore and what that means on the world stage
>>215609375i only watch for a cemetery scene
>>215597035>Do you think you'd make it in a zombie apocalypseI wouldn't want to, to be honest.
>>215597035Im in one of the most densely populated sections of the United States so id be fucked. No natural food, few animals, millions and millions of zombies. Realistically, unless youre up in Alaska or northern Canada when it happens youre fucked.
>>215609959you would have tons of supplies and shelf stable, long term food available. The zombies wouldn't be too much of a problem as long as you get an elevated safe house. Now if it's the zombie apocalypse with running climbing Volatiles, then yeah, you're fucked
>>215609779How would an indian even become a zombie? They're already exposed to shit like ganges river water and it does nothing to them
>>215600189>anon spends 180 hours straight ripping clothes and becomes an expert tailor
>>215609371Zombies are inherently magical, the dead don’t come back to life without it. A real zombie apocalypse would b me some type of virus like rabies making people go feral and attack everyone. In which case it’d be nothing. Some guy would get bit by a raccoon, he attack someone then get shot by them or the police. Maybe he’d bite a few more people who’d turn and do the same but eventually people would catch on to what’s happening. The city/town would be locked down and quarantined. They’d capture the feral people and whoever else got bit and lock them up and try to cure them. Probably medicate and subdue them and keep them restrained or in a medical coma.
>>215609779The real World War Z (not that shit movie) did that where most of the world recovered together but there are still areas full of zombies like North Korea, which sealed itself off completely and refused any help so it's full of millions of zombies.
>>215597035Slow zombies? Probably. The only thing I'd fear is if there's hordes of zombies moving together and I get boxed inside a small street from all sides or something.
>>215597035I would dress up into something funny so at least I'd made a memorable zombie.
>>215599407This is how most of my Zomboid games end
>>215605262That'll just burn their skin retard To melt vone and organ you need it either very hot or burn over a long timeAdd to that, zombies don't feel pain and will shuffle around spreading the fire, before you know it you're entire city is burning and you trapped yourself in it good job
>>215597035Pros:>rural area of the UK so not many people>because it's the UK I'm also not too far from towns (by car) with supplies if I need them>prevailing wind would push zombies from main cities further from me>many boats fairly nearby>many farms with access to equipment and resources to learn agriculture for long term survivalCons:>narrow, single track roads make it very easy to get surrounded when travelling by car>high pet ownership around here, so if zombie dogs are a thing I'm probably ultra fucked>not in great shape>no real survival skills>I own a cat and I'm not willing to leave him behindI think presuming I don't immediately die because it starts on one of the rare times I'm actually in a populated area, then I have a good chance of surviving for a while. If the outbreak is prolonged, then I have a small chance because I could potentially learn some farming skills in order to not starve, but realistically I'd probably die there.Overall, my greatest strengths are environmental rather than personal, but really that might be the best way to survive the early outbreak where most people die immediately.
I live out in the woods in Arkansas so I think I'd be alright. I imagine it'd be like the scene in Dawn of the Dead where all the rednecks are hanging out and hunting zombos for fun. Rural communities would establish hierarchy and stick together. Our only enemies would be the cityslickers trying to gain entry.If you're in the cities or suburbs when the zombie apocalypse happens you're basically dead already.
>>215602271you mean the movie lied!
>>215610307Didn't North Korea move their entire population into a network of underground bunkers and basically seal the doors? After the apocalypse was over the rest of the world just decided to leave North Korea as it is.
>>215597035its the year 2026 zombies are no longer cool or scary unless they are smart zombies.
>>215600189>anon spends the first days of the apocalypse reading books and working out in front of the TV
>>215611151They're still cool. They're just not fit for the braindead popcorn munching masses. Cinema audiences demand novelty and ever changing the formula even if it's contrived and idiotic. You can only find the good stuff in games now
>>215611151This is why I dislike the direction Capcom have taken with the RE games, forsaken zombie for supernatural bollocks.
>>215600209I draw porn for a living so I'll be enviromental storytellingI'm sitting in my pc, unable to get up, because of the position of my sofa-chair makes it so I slot in, like how people get in convertibles in moviesI have my pants down, and my pc is powered down, my art setup is on the floor due to me flailing arms and knocking shit downThere's a bite on my legThe anime figurines are outside of my reach, intactIf anyone searches through them, the Juggernaut figurine has a key to the safe under the bed, with assorted goods.Other zombies you found on the house, are 3 zombie dogs
>>215604309>saw hole in top of door>make noise to attract zombies to your door>stab downwards while standing on a chairApartment blocks are alright if it's not too big and you don't have those cheapo doors you can just kick in, plenty of people will die off on the first day so that's extra food and supplies for you. Once you've secured a floor, get everyone together and block every exit except one at which you put a guard or motion sensor up, then secure every other floor until can block off the ground entrance.
>>215611253Jill :)
I'd maybe survive the zombies long enough to be killed by the first bandit I run across.Realistically, what's the likelihood of people just immediately regressing into bloodthirsty raiders like in almost every post-apocalyptic media ever?
>>215608542>choose a fast current river with an islet in the middle Problem solved, enjoy the rapids gay zombies!
>>215611348FUCK zomboids.
>>215611373>Realistically, what's the likelihood of people just immediately regressing into bloodthirsty raidersIf there's even a hint of a zombie virus I'll be the first to search my oneitis, kill their family and lock her down in the basementI'll do it in like day 1Less than 24 hoursLike as soon as the news hit, I'll head straight to her place, knock the door and bash whoever opens, or hopefully they aren't home and are getting panic supplies, I'll force myself in and wait them insideLiterally less than 6 hours probably
depends on the situation. are we talking a sudden out-of-nowhere thing like in TWD/WWZ, or a more gradual apocalypse into hell like in GoT?probably fare better in the former as there is the technology and infrastructure to be able to deal with it even if it is more urgent than the latter where the only 'escape' is fleeing to the forest where you'll probably just starve or get killed by a bear or something
>>215597326So human beings can burn to death pretty easily, but zombies someone acquire a fire immunity?I mean, the zombies are wearing flammable clothing,there’s their hair, etc.
>>215597035Slow zombies definately.Fast zombies...I'd unironically most likely kill myself. I have a fear of fast zombies. I hate the feeling of being chased and add to that that I'll be eaten alive or turned into them is just too much for me. Zombie games give me nightmares, even left 4 dead 2 so I'd just shoot myself to not have to live through that nightmare scenario.
These things would all easily defeat zombies, and that's just for individual civilians.Military would have 0 issue vs. zombies regardless of numbers. It would be less difficult for them than human opponents.
I live in North Dakota. First thing I do, I drive to New Town on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, and the Indians and I hold out. Indians are very pro-community and familial people. Being INTJ, I'm suited for leadership roles/positions. I'd analyze the situation and determine what needs conserving, saving, rescuing, etc. The first objective we'd take are the various nuclear silos around North Dakota. Once we secured the nukes, we'd have literally the best weapon in the world to stop any horde of zombies or roaming band of marauders.
>>215611655So human beings can die pretty easily, but zombies somehow acquire immunity to death?
>>215611973>he doesn't realize the Indians see it as fulfilling a prophecy from their ancient Gods to rise up and reclaim their stolen land>the white man is the first to be sacrificed in thanks to their Gods
>>215597035>or would you just end up as one of the zombies?...Yeah... But not the way you'd think. Let's just say I wouldn't stay.... human... for long if society stops being society. Yeah, let's just say it's not the zombies you have to worry about if I'm in the area.
You may not like it but Zombieland is more realistic than WWZ and TWD
>>215612208>fully stocked non-looted supermarket totally realistic
>>215597035I'd make a mistake eventually, get tripped up at the wrong time, etc. It's inevitable. On a long enough timeline, everybody's going to get caught.And that's taking other non-zombie humans out of the equation. Even if you have 500 friends, there's going to be some group of 2000 people that wants what you have and will kill all of you to get it.We're back to Might Makes Right and if you're obstinately independent or just unlucky you're going to get killed.
>>215612233>99.999% of humanity dies basically overnight in TWD>nonperishable supplies are somehow limited
>>215612243the idea that people will turn into giant marauding murdergangs is a myth
Here are the rules. The virus can spread through bodily fluids, contaminated water, insects and ticks act as carriers while all mammals will turn into zombies. The zombies themselves start off fast and somewhat inteligent (can open door with keys, use melee, use guns but can't aim or reload) but become slower and dumber as they decompose, they can last between 1 to 4 years depending on various factors before they fall apart and die. How would you do in this scenario?
>>215612721Have you ever heard of a fella named Genghis Khan?
>>215611872Zombies overwhelm you.Buried under dozens of undead while the gas spilling on the ground, ignites and slowly cook you alive.What could possibly go wrong?Btw happy Halloween you faggot.
>>215597717One zombie books writer had a passage how the ACLU defended human right of zombies during a zombie apocalipse before America was eaten.
What if zombies are a problem in third world countries?
I live in the 'burbs so the population density would mean it never gets to huge unstoppable zombie swarm levels you see on TV shows and movies. If we are going by Walking Dead death rates of only 1/5000 surviving the initial plague, I probably would rarely see living people unless I looked for them. In my town of 100,000 people there would only be 20 survivors with that death rate. So I'm not super worried about some living huge gang going around either. And most of my "fencing" is legit thick walls, so except for a few places that I'd need to fortify extra in the beginning, zombies aren't even close to getting in. The only worry then is about finding enough nonperishable food for a few years to last until I've established a legit farm system. I like my odds overall. I'd probably get so bored I'd start doing stupid stuff at some point though.
>>215613774You live in the suburbs and your fencing is "thick walls"?What the fuck, do you also have a moat or something
>>215611320"I draw porn for a living..."I'll see you in hell.
>>215613836Yeah one whole side is a really thick wall (to reduce car sounds I think?). Definitely no zombies are getting through that. The front is obviously the house. The other side between me and the neighbor is mostly a brick and stone wall. The only part that is wood fencing is the back wall between me and the neighbor but the property is longer and relatively narrow so it's not that much that needs to be reinforced and the zombies would have similar issues getting through the neighbor's property to get to mine before I reinforced it.
>>215611703Based environmental storytelling Anon. You'll be a corpse on a bed with "I can't take it" scratched into the wall with dirk.
>>215614083
Where I live it is really steep and hilly. Are zombies down with hiking uphill? They always show them as flatlanders. I'm imagining them stumbling and falling on their face trying to get up my block and not really succeeding at it. You definitely can't just shuffle your feet and get up this shit.
>>215597035>I don't know if there are laws against raping zombiesButI would rape the shit out of zombies and if they get pregnant I would raise them kids and have my own zombie familie to let the other zombies know to stay clearThis is how I would survive
>>215597175I would dual wield swords or katanas for the cool of rule feel.
>>215614146Zombie Baby!
Outside of fictional media, all the military and law enforcement doesnt just conveniently die off right at the start, so your average guy can struggle alone and play McGuyver with improvised weaponry. In reality, organized state led response with heavy weaponry would contain a Zombie outbreak pretty quickly, considering zombies are utterly unorganized and without higher intelligence
>>215597717No one: Yep, still legitimately no one:Eurofag: "muh Drumpf!"
>>215614489This is why TWD had most of the population die off due to the virus. Otherwise there is no real way for zombieness to spread since they try to completely eat people, not just bite people.
>>215597035I would probably just hide and get lucky with my spot.
fast movies = hide in attic until food runs out and shoot myselfslow zombies = hide in attic until food runs out, sneak out and look around then shoot myself if it's actually over. if it's like shaun of the dead or fido then get a zombie gf like tammysimple as
>>215614489>>215614581I figure the way for zombie outbreaks to happen, the virus has to be distributed and transmitted prior to the first bite. Walking Dead did this alright, their science was sketchy but the premise was sound.>Zombie virus is spread through the air>Zombie bites rapidly accelerate the turningThat way by the time the first hungry hungry hobo bites someone you can have the corpse, or the victim, infect multiple people before anyone realises a zombie happened. Then we can do exponential infection math and everyone's (un)happy. If society doesn't break down from being ambushed by a sudden zombie invasion, then it's not really a zombie apocalypse, just a flare up of zombies.>You hear about the Dawsons down the road? Their building got a zombie in it, old man Smithers.>Oh dear that's awful, did anyone get sick?>No, they went to check on him when he was shuffling around.>Oh well I'm staying away from the Dawsons for a week either way, just in case.>Shame about Smithers...>Oh yes shame, but he was very sick.>[old lady ambience continues]
>>215614698That would probably make for a good animu or something. Follows a group of people responsible for investigating localized outbreaks and organizing teams to deal with them.
>>215597035Can zombies make it through a wide perimeter of boards with nails hammered through them?
Not /tv/ but Left 4 Dead had one hell of a zombie virus>evolves sporadically just to avoid known detection methods>randomly changes the transmission method>spreads to animals AND humans, potentially a mutation of mad cow disease and/or rabies>the infected can fucking sprint and have super hearing>some of the infected mutate into specialized siege units>the ONLY hope you have of not turning is having a rare carrier gene, and even then you're still a carrier so you immediately infect everyone who's not a carrier that you come acrossThe chances of surviving that are next to nothing because you have to be a carrier and if you are a carrier you have to survive the hordes of sprinter zombies just to exile yourself far, far away from civilization for the rest of your days because you will just restart the whole apocalypse if the rest of humanity actually manages to somehow get it under control.I'd most likely not be a carrier and I'd just try to fuck a Witch and get torn apart.Actually even if I were a carrier I'd probably do it anyway
>>215614636(you)ing this post for being correct in planning
>>215614489>would contain a Zombie outbreak pretty quicklyNo, they wouldn't. The zombies don't die to bullets. Fires and big bombs just spread the zombie contagion around making it even more uncontrollable, so it's now outside of any perimeters they set up. And the zombies have problem solving intelligence and infinite stamina.
As long as I'm with Carol, I'll be fine.
>>215609433Whatever sci-fi bs of LIVING dead that keeps them foraging for flesh in ~hunger, is keeping the flammable gases at bay. Their achilles' heel is structural integrity, or disabling them by removing limbs.
>>215614855Depends on how big the hoard is. Once enough zombies get stuck to the boards then you just have boards with zombies on them. I'd only use this strat if you want to actually capture zombies or put them in place temporarily so you can kill them easier later. Otherwise, it seems like a big hassle to constantly have to clean up your spikes. I'd rather just design my fortifications so that zombies just walk by without getting stuck to any single place.
>>215614918She's so mentally unstable towards the end that she'll probably disappear one night and leave behind a cryptic "sorry" note
Zombies can't even handle stairs. They wouldn't make it up my porch lmao
>>215613839I gotta live chum, and I barely pay my expenses, I'm not like one of those guys that draw 2 furry porn a month for 5k and call it a dayIt's what the market is, what you want me to do
>>215615347> I barely pay my expensesThen maybe you should drawn furry porn?If I had any talent in drawing I would be filthy rich by now.It's a pretty big shame when people sitting on a golden ticket but they don't pay any attention to it.
>>215597100wrong. zombies are not particularly flammable, and destroying a body by fire takes *a lot* of fuel.Dawn of the dead remake does address this though: andy uses molotovs form a secure position and all it does is char their exterior, attract more zombies, and make him hungry.https://youtu.be/aSZYtxyY38Q?si=z9Glf78m6IkcpBzT&t=350
>>215612208>more realistic>they don't instantly rape the two girls>they don't rape them and enslave them>le bill murray is still alive and lives in a fancy house with zero zombies near>they didn't rape the two girls in the mansionIt was a decent flick but too retardedThem going to the amusement park, turning it on, then being surprised the zombies showed up was absolutely fucking pants on head retarded
>>215612810My man Temujin did NOTHING wrong
>>215615894Yeah, sad to say it but they'd both be trained onaholes within a week, and if they fought back theyd just lose a hand.
>>215612721it literally happens already in places like africa and the balkans. kek lmao retard
>>215616188Good thing I'm far away from those living zombies and don't have to worry about them.
>>215616253'iggers form gangs in america too sadly
>>215604145it would be shorter in the summer too. it would be more kino seeing swarms of zombies slowly decay as they are eaten as they stand by clouds of flies that would breed like crazy from all the free food.
Most people could who aren’t illThe real question is a mental one. Do you really want to live long term in a world where technology is set back 150+ years? Where society as you know it is gone?
>>215597413mongolia?
>>215616289The death rates are high enough that they'll be unable to form powerful gangs. 20 living people per 100000 deaths means the nigs will have to venture far and wide to link up except for high nig density areas and then they'll just be stuck in their localized zones unable to really go anywhere until they starve out faster than the zombies.
>>215602242You would be fine m8, atleast until supply ships or w/e stop coming in.
>>215616346Tech wouldn't go back that far. No internet and phones for sure. And if you tear an ACL or something you are fucked. But electricity will still be around if you aren't a tard. The only issue will be loneliness depending on your situation.
>>215609028>zombie fish
>>215616395wait, you think people WONT form muderous rape gangs? KEK I wish I had your optimism, kid. People will be killing each other for a slave or a can of beans within three weeks.
>>215616476What part of only 20 in 100,000 people live do you not understand? Outside of cities, everywhere will become ghost towns.
>>215616515And those warlord rape gangs will roam for resources, and every time they find people, it will end with death/enslavement/rape.
>>215616550No. Gangs will form in cities where population density is enough to have enough survivors. Nigs will not be able to pull off the roaming gang lifestyle since they cannot function at a high enough level to have consistent transport. They'll be stuck in their enclaves until they use up nearby resources and then resort to cannibalism and die or try to roam and get zombied quickly. Source: africans without international aid
>>215616627yeah theyll *form* in the cities. and then when they run out of resources, theyll roam nomadically for more, just like any other warlord based society. Is this hard to comprehend?
>>215616670How are nigs going to roam that far? Gas lasts 3-6 months. They lack the knowledge to go anywhere far. Everyone has a gun so they'll be facing fast attrition trying to go door to door nig style looting. The nig lifestyle only works because it is propped up. There's a reason africans fucking starve to death
>>215616768>im in the middle of nowhere, im immune to groups of people with bad intent!Youre really fucking overthinking this
>>215600209Fat Grocery Store Worker>Blue Polo Shirt>Stanley Knife>Steel Capped Boots>Painkillers>Bag of 20 Silver Ounces
>>215597035almost every zombie movie scenario can be solved by basic containment protocols, military soldiers that are actually trained to fire their weapons properly and people that actually leverage the advantage of long range melee weapons.
>>215616790You are underthinking this and going purely based on feels and hollywood movies and tv shows.
>>215616325>clouds of fliesNow that would be kino if the fly transmit it to a healthy person
>>215616823No, im going off the proven facts that>people who are starving are desperate>people with no law are ruthless>people will group together to survivehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazino_tragedy
>>215616871>original report was made by a propaganda workerHmmmmmm
>>215616871>Within 13 weeks, over 4,000 of the deportees had died or disappearedExactly my point. Niggers do not have any survival skills and almost all of them would die out quickly.
>>215597035As long as they aren't the running type, I would be fine
>>215616930yeah, thats why they kept it secret. would have looked bad globally. >>215616936And the ones who dont, are a threat. also, its not just nogs, it will be anyone willing to do anything to survive while indulging bad desires. Again, youre not immune to groups of people with bad intent. They do and will exist, simple as.
>>215597035No because karate
>>215616963I have been having this conversation from the perspective of nigger gangs.
>>215617029you think those will be the only people wanting your women and food???kek

>>215617073sure thing kid. youre too autistic to realize that a single example of something isnt the same as the things sum total.>doesnt know about white niggerskwab im gonna hope you remember this when the day comes
>>215608928Would have been foreshadowing, if they had gone with the original ending.
>>215597035I have the hubris to believe I can survive the World War Z zombies. But not Dead Space. What level of skill or delusion must I have.
>>215617203>WWZYou clearly believe you have the capacity to be ruthless and cool under pressure.>Dead SpaceYou clearly feel like you skipped leg day.
Would you survive the plague in Kingdom?
>>215615485Just grab pencil and paper and start practicing. Only thing that can stop you are other, more powerful people, especially ifnyoundon't have any privacy.

>>215617611Depends on where you live desu, the palaces seemed generally pretty safe with all the walls and barricades
>>215597120Sure the virus can survive, but can the human body? Any creature that isnt insanely insulated would freeze solid. And barring paranormal undead, the zombies would need to burn their metabolism at insane levels to keep warm, something that deteriorate them quickly
Yeah I'd win ezpz>plot path to river>get on BOAT>zombies can't swim
>>215617898based retard
>>215618060part of the conceit of zombies is that they work without making sense. Picking and choosing what law of physics they break seems like it is avoiding the forest for the trees.
>Why yes, my good Sir, I am quite knowledgeable on the subject of, as you say, "Zombies". As a matter of fact, I have a Doctorate in the field of Mortuus Ambulare also known as the Walking Dead. I have seen every motion picture and read all the literature. When the day of chaos finally arrives, I will be the expert everyone turns to for directions on what to do in the crisis.
>>215597035>shelter in place several months with light/noise disipline >the number of zombies to avoid is trivialDesperate people and nihilistic raidermaxxers are more of an issue than a bunch of animated corpses that will eat each other out of existence then starve in short order. It's the rapture/metaphysical indefinitely undead that's the real trouble, and/or Crossed & Crazies style still sentient 'fast' ones that are just psychotic or puppeted by demons.
>gets to run around naked in the lovely countryside>this is somehow considered the end of the world
>>215618349i talk like this but dont look like this
>>215614636This is the only correct response
>>21561840428 years later isn't canon
>>215597035If a zombie apocalypse happened like in the movies, your only winning move is to just blow your brains out.
>>215597035If I am able to hole up somewhere I think I'd manage to die of starvation happily, otherwise turning into a zombie would for sure be my destiny
>>215615075>Zombies can't even handle stairs.They're inconsistent when it comes to that stuff.
>>215599866>still parrot the "drink bleach" fake newsYou know there is still video of that press con, right? Sure he doesn't directly say drink bleach but he is saying uv light in the body. Injecting disinfectant, having started out talking about bleach.His Maga base is so uneducated poison control had spikes in calls for days after. As for zombie stuff, I live in a major city. I'm cooked, just too many people. Only pro living here zombie wise is the river is close. So I'd have water.
>>215619294What if the virus spreads through water?
>>215614489There's no zombie army. They don't have anyone to fight. It's the fundamental breakdown of society that causes the end.>zombies start appearing>spreads around the world >government finally starts implementing a quarantine once it's spread everywhere>supply chains start to break down>massive civil unrest as people rebel against quarantine, because they lack supplies, use it as an excuse to be violent against other people and claim they were attacking "zombies" etc.Zombie apocalypse isn't caused by zombies directly killing everyone, it's caused by zombies irreparably destroying the foundation of society.
>>21561901628 years isn't even zombies. They're just angry living people
I enjoy sticking finger in my hemmorhoided asshole and smell blood+shit mixture on my finger. Anyone else?
>>215619437Plus the concept of "zombie" needs to be bewildering and shocking. Dorks on here for some reason think everyone will already know what a zombie is and not be panicking at seeing the impossible dead rising including their loved ones. When it appears the world is actually coming to the end and real demons are about, then people aren't going to be thinking about continuing to work for their meager paycheck. Soldiers are going to abandon their post to look after their families. Gangs are going to form out of necessity.
>>215619668I mean if zombies become real and they're not that differet from what we already saw in media then people are going to adapt easy especially if the outbreak starts out somewhere else and takes them a while to get to places like the us.
>>215597035>>215600187This, zombie movies are based on how most humans have to be beyond retardation for the premise to work Even the fast zombie type would be contained in a city block at best unless you are some African shithole >>215602233Then it is magically spread via airborne? It would be even easier to detect and contain compared to Covid, after a few dozen cases make it to public
>>215617073I accept your concession>>215619891>muh army save le day!>muh one city block!youre retarded, genuinely.
>>215619891Speaking of African shitholes what if the zombie outbreak started there? The infection could spread like crazy there and first world countries would have to deal with hordes and infected refugees. Do you think that setup could explain how most of the world got fucked up by zombies?
>>215602271You’re thinking of ghouls not zombies
>>215602271proof?
>>215597035the gators would eat thembut then the zombie gators would eat us
>>215597035assuming the infection plays out like TWD/FTWD I'll probably make it for a few months and then die because of those retards setting off the nuke.
>>215619939Shut up bitch, even with covid it took like half a years for it to travel globally. We live in the information age, a disease that turn people into violent undead would make news very fast, and unlike covid we will have less retards call it a nothing burger and response more swiftly
>>215620120Idk i think the zombies would fuck them up.
>>215620166>even with covid it took like half a yearsdid covid affect people within one minute, and said affected people sprint full speed to infect as many others on contact as possible?honest answers only pls
>>215620222Yes
>>215620282damn u got me
>>215597035the most dangerous part of a zombie outbreak would be mental trauma and survival. not everyone could do that, many would off themselves than face such troubles.then there would be the doomers discouraging further survival. killing zombies by comparison would be an anger outlet
>>215620307if ur a woman maybe lmao
Zombies absolutely should burn easily, it's bad writing if they don't. Think about it: they don't drink water, stand around in the sun desssicating all day, unless they're literally soaking in water the whole time they'd go up like kindling.
>>215620006I think the world will have to deal with massive waves of immigrants running from the plague in the first few weeks The whole of Africa will be fucked include Egypt, Morocco etc cause these retards cant do anything right, then middle east and balkan will try to close their borders, with different levels of success, causing some humanitarian disasters and liberals crying about it, Most of EU and rest of the world will be fine because at that point we would already have viable test for potential carrier and decent medicine, or even cure for it The economy will be fucked though, hard, but hey there will also be load of potential careers in re-colonizing Africa, getting rid of the undead locals or make use of them somehow lmao
>>215620357the people they eat are like 80% water, anon
>>215614109kek I never thought of that, but yeah classic zombies would definitely never manage a hike with any kind of difficult terrain, just park yourself on a cliff and watch them tumble over and over with your binoculars.
>>215613173>Movie shows that people who die shortly return as zombies>Except for the dudes they are chowing down on. They don't ever comeback, for some reason.
>>215615035Carol is a shit character, I can't believe she's the only one to still star in this shit besides Daryl.

>>215620362>Most of EU and rest of the world will be fine because at that point we would already have viable test for potential carrier and decent medicine, or even cure for itWould it? Putting aside the fact that zombification is usually incurable and a 100% death sentence i think most of the EU would irresponsible with how they handle the immigrant situation.
>>215600917live by the rape die by the rape ehh?
>>215620357They have to take the zombies to a special crematorium. It's a big deal and they owe the owner a big favor. He has to turn up the machine to maximum to burn the bodies since they don't burn easily.
>>215620222Even easier to contain compared to one with long incubation period and transmits airborneThe deadliest aspect of these disease is not how violently it spread for spooky effect, it is the difficulty to detect and contain, and modern society have various methods to deal with that.The moment people know these zombie can infect people via bitting it is fucking easy to counter, compare to airborne virus which require. you to wear fucking hazmat suit, it is a fucking joke I do admit the most plausible case like anon said is TWD series, it has a long incubation period, airborne infection, and very very lethal Though i still thing the world will find a cure eventually and not just pure retardation like duh we’re sad or running out of fuel for research facilities lmao
>>215620558>one with long incubation period and transmits airborneexcept its both. why did it start? everyone is infected, has been for ages, incubation is over.>airborneyeah, why not? its fucking fiction, retard
>>215597035being a zombie sounds comfy tbqh
>>215610307>>215611102In the movie North Korea eliminated the problem immediately by pulling everyone's teeth out.
>>215620669I imagine you'd feel numb ( like how your hand might feel after laying on it for too long) and hungry all the time.
>>215620511Not a cure, more like a vaccine yeah You think the gov actually care about humanitarian crisis cause morality?Nah it is for easy public support The moment people know this is not just some white girls getting raped by browns or neets crying about white genocide online, but their actual lives are threaten, they will easily accept any propaganda the gov shit out to justify using more ‘unconventional methods’ It is the same shit with war for example, if they could paint the axis as cold, ruthless monsters trying to destroy freedom in ww2, then they could do even better with hordes of potential zombies
>>215620769>You think the gov actually care about humanitarian crisis cause morality?No but i do think they would pussyfoot around the issue and allow the situation get worse then it needs to because they'd be the last people to get affected by the issue. I could also see some of them having a false sence of security.
>>215601093
>>215620338you underestimate how many would fit that profile. not accounting for unforeseen losses by other survivors and zombies, all further reducing the remaining survivor population.you don't value women offing themselves now because abundance and redundancy, what if there's maybe 100 females within 10-20 miles maybe, half of them die from various outcomes, half of those can't or won't breed or pull their weight so to speak, you have maybe 20 within the radius but many more males.now competition at a primitive level starts to become a serious issue.lol, you have no idea.
I used to think any kind of zombie apocalypse was complete BS. Then Covid happened, and I realized that the average person really is that stupid.
