| What to stock pile up on | COMMENTS:Cylon1994 Idealy you would want food because your goal of zombie survival should be too survive as long as you can and without supplies your screwed. I think other humans would be helpfull as ou will have some bait, shooters, skills, maybe food, gear, whatever they're carrying. SurviverBoyd. Naa you want more buildings, theyl alow you to move more freely and chanses are youll find food and whatnot as you sheartch the bulidings. C-1/36. You can't eat if you are dead.. well not out of cans. I'm grabbing my gun first. Mr.Awsome: When voting, keep in mind that the poll says what you would stock pile up the most of, not what you will only stockpile up on ZEROFLY: Food for me. You need it to survive. Second would be weapons, then other people, and then of course, the building or home . Super-Z: I agree with Zerofly. Food first...guns later. TonyPro--Snickers bars. If I'm going to be running, I'd rather not be hauling cans of Chef Boyardee for miles. NANOFLY: The most logical thing is food, we need food to survive. All those other things a just extras and the only ones that would serve any significant purpose in an outbreak would be a reliable weapon and someone you can trust to watch your back. A place to hole up in would also be of help but primarily only in a siege situation where flight or avoidance would be impossible or undesirable. Cipher234: I would say food is the obvious choice if you're going for survival. If the food choice was eliminated I would have to say buildings because I could use improvised weapons from boards, nails, hammers, any thing I could find but buildings provide shelter. byates: Water first then food, shelter third. Z13: Water/food first, weapons second. Kingrich3: Buildings, there's food in the buildings, plus you can't sleep under a mountain of KD (If only I could) and you can last a week without food, you last 5 minutes without shelter Mastermind22: Guns to kill the zombie attacking me. Then I would be able to scrounge for more food without being zombified. _______________________________ AngelaB: I'm all about the ukulele! KillerZtime: I like the banjo Srg._winters: I think it would be funny to know z, because you can walk into a z infested bar, point a hand cannon and say in moans, why the missing face? betterdeadthanundead : Hopefully we'll all get really good at popping Zeke either from a distance or up close, and when we're comfortable with our killing, we all need to do it with style - really cool - so watch Army of Darkness and copy Ash's one-liner style. vanrulzz: I would decorate. A plain concrete bunker would drive you mad, guaranteed. Mr.Awsome: I'd learn to speak zombie. Maybe impress my friends. Or I could batter up my clothes, put some fake blood on me and go under cover! After all, whats the point of spying on zombies when you don't know what there saying? McSkullcracken: Definitely the ballad writing, but with a different instrument:piano, acoustic bass guitar, improvised drum. But if an ukulele is the only option, I might use it. PercerveringGenocide: We can learn to speak zombie?! I'm all for it. Bonemill: I would practice me one liners to impress the ladies on a fine day of zombie killing. Cause, seriously who can't appreciate a john Wayne impression! ShotgunMan: If I'm going to be killing zombies most the time, then I'd better sound cool doing it, so I'd come up with some one-liners. Besides, I can't play the ukulele. Cipher234: I would have to say out of these choices practicing my interpretive dance about running away without a toothbrush sounds the most amusing because once you run out of one liners what are you gonna do? Toomin: Awesome Srg._winters, awesome to the max. One liner's for me..I can't dance worth shite. kingrich3: I like me my one liners 13th.Casualty: I'd so want to learn zombie and hook up with an undead rich girl. But, putting my erotic fantasies aside, I have to say I'll go for the live girl first. That's what one-liners are for! Gaudencio: Most definately one-liners. "That's no way to get ahead in life!" Flyboy254: Whats wrong with taking down notes and trying to find some kind of cause? Still, one-liners are nice when other survivors are around. Mastermind22: Why kill zeds if you can't sound cool? (other than not being zombified) |
| Best Barricading Method? | byates: Plywood, sheet metal, chain link. ZEROFLY: If you can do this and get the space needed, invest the time in building a moat. Don't fill it with water though. Make the sides 90* so that they cannot get out. I know this takes a long time, but it will keep you safe at night. One problem that some of you might see is the amount of dead that would pile up in the ditch. All I can say there is once it's near full, burn the bodies and leave and start somewhere else. DustinEchos104: I'm going for pungi spiked trench with gasoline in the bottom with the dirt from it used to make an earthwork berm to put wall or fence on behind it Kingrich3: I'm going with flying to a small island and setting up fences around it. (Provided by the local Wal-mart) 13th.CaMastersualty: Can't be bit on the second floor. Kelkesh: I would do the full works providing I wasnt being chased at that moment. It doesnt take long to tip a cabinet in front of a door. Arakratty:I wouldn't be able to destroy the staircase but I would definetly block it all up so they cant get up. Mastermind22: full works for me, my house is cluttered with junk, so I could easily block all access. |
| Pick Your Opponent Quake591: Slow movers Srg._winters: classic zombies, in every zombie movie ever made, the get through, weather from a stupid team mate, or from a minor weakness, its best to be able to get away to your next hidie-hole when something minor breaks. with the rage zombies, you have to wait a whole 2-3 months for them to die down, while keeping in mind your food supplies. if you're in a group, everyone must eat, but that helps with fortification and fending them off and vice versa. vanrulzz: Rage, surviving zombie attacks is about the long term. Just because you have a slightly smaller chance of living right now doesn't mean you shouldn't trade that chance for being able to survive in the long term. PercerveringGenocide: Well, I like the idea behind the Rage zombie the best, as after a few months there wouldn't be as many. Though more and more people could be infected throughout the period of three months, my main concern is that first day or two. Fast moving zombies would wipe me out with no warning. Otherwise, the traditional zombie would be ideal, good shelter, some nice guns, make it fun. GunGamer: Slow Zed's, definitely. Rage Zed's are too damn fast and those Zed's who can learn can become too damn smart. And, if you get bitten by a slow Zed, you are not worthy of being a human being. Toomin: Although Rage and Dawn zombies would be more fun, slow movers would definitely be easiest to survive. I mean, it's a plus that Rage zombies have a time limit, but what if they kept feeding? The only reason that really worked in 28 days later is because they pretty much ran out of people to eat on the island. What if they had a supply like China or India to feed from? | Use this area to tell us why you voted for the zombie you did: AngelaB: Rage Zombies - love the idea of a time-line and a natural extinction! TonyPro: Slow Zeds--I'd like to see someone try to sit in a bunker for 28 weeks without eating. And a month's worth of food, even for one person, is a LOT more than you might think; and especially difficult to stockpile if you're being chased by eight infected and everyone else got to Shaw's before you. ZEROFLY: Are you kidding? Rage Zombies would be horrible. Sure they are easily killed and can starve, but you forget that they run extremely fast and can spread the virus instantly. Not to mention they can projectile vomit blood all over your face. Personally, I rather fight the Solanum Zombies. They move slower, and I would actually have a chance of surviving. Mr.Awsome: Slow movers. Easy to hit, don't approach fast, and lead to tons and tons of almost never-ending zombie killing fun! Blayde: Slow Movers. With these particular zeds, you've got a much higher survival chance in the here and now. If you don't survive today, you can't plan for tomorrow. Ari:Rage Zombies. All you have to do is barricade yourself inside your basement until they die. flakmagnet: Rage Zombies. A total of 56 days doesn't seem too long to wait out. Reaper15: Rage zombies. all you have to do is fortify yourself and stash the fortification with as much supplies, weapons, ammunition, and gear and just wait 2-3 months. Rose_Thorns: I think that the rage zombies would be the best, because they die. So if all the living humans just hide somewhere and don't get bitten then the zombie's will all die in a while, right? Blackrainbow: Rage zombies, because they die over an amount of time, and, as much fun as shooting millions and millions of blood-thirsty zombies sounds, I'd rather just sit in my house and hide. Synap: slow movers because they are dumb and weak. if any of you saw 28 weeks later, they broke right through most barricades and are so fast you wouldn't even get a shot off. Slow ones present an easier target, read the walking dead graphic novel and you will know what I mean Piratelord78: I'll take slow movers any day. I have no idea why anyone would take zombies out of the Dawn of the Dead remake, those are the absolute worst. The one's from 28 Days Later seem easy with the whole waiting it out bit, but I'd rather fight something that I can at least survive the first couple months against, the RAGE victims are a bit too quick for me. At least with the classic one's they're slow enough and stupid enough for me to get by in a pinch. ShotgunMan: I like the Dawn of the Dead zombies; the fact that they can learn and move faster than the traditional zombie makes them more intriguing and more of a challenge to kill. But sometimes a challenge can be fun. DevilMayCrye: Slows because easy to outrun. UnUndead: I'd prefer standard Solanum Zs any day. Sure, rage Zs would expire, but only if there were no humans left to eat. The good thing about rage Zs is that, due to the speed of infection, it would be extremely unlikely for the virus to spread overseas. |
| Is that Zombie Dead? | Mr.Awsome:Chop off the head. Better safe than sorry. that or shoot it a couple more times. :) ZEROFLY: Remember though, chopping off the head doesn't get rid of the problem. Sure the body is done with, but the head will still be biting at you. Always make sure to destroy the brain. Otherwise you'll just start seeing Zombie heads everyone rolling around trying to bite people. Jukiness: Kill The HEAD, Kill the ZOMBIE Unlucky Princess: I totally agree with ^ Srg._winters: if there's one after me, and I'm inside, I'd like to be through. If I'm just running through the streets, I'd like to stick to the rule, "If its in the head its dead." roxas33: I'm not sticking around to find out got to move on. Piratelord78: If I'm on the move I don't care if it's dead, just as long as it's not a threat so I can get by. But if it's on my front lawn and I've got some time and energy to spare then I may as well be sure by decapitating. Burying would just be my way of showing some respect for those who weren't as lucky. Redeker: If its not moving it's dead. Zombies are not smart enough to fake death and you can't knock them out. If the mouth is not biting nothing to worry about. Monkeyfacedzombie:If I shoot a zombie it is over. End of story vanrulzz: don't stick around, you don't want to take chances. if its not biting at you thats good enough for me. ShotgunMan: As long as it's on the ground, that's good enough for me. But I aim for the head anyways, so odds are it'd be dead. ZS207:I extend my friends arm towards the things mouth. A bite!Blam.BlamI Never liked him anyway!! |
| What would you do if.... Rose_Thorns: I hate to say it but I would probably kill that person once he/she became a zombie, but I'll miss them like hell. Blackrainbow: Turn 'em loose! I'd do that, because I always wanted to know how it was to be a zombie, and if they get cured, they could tell me. And there is a slight chance that he/she will kill one of the people I hate. =] vanrulzz: Kill. I hate saying that, but you cant take chances in a zombie apocalypse. Toomin: It'd break my heart to kill them. But I'd rather know they're at peace than still roaming and moaning. | Which did you pick and why? AngelaB: See ya. Come back if you recover! I picked it because my sweetie said that killing him was cruel since he has always wondered how the other half lives and this might be his only shot to find out. Call me sentimental. KDawgg: Sorry, but it's not worth the risk. A few months is a long time, so I'm gonna have to kill him/her. Mr.Awsome:Depends if it was a guaranteed cure. I'd keep my wife of significant other around for a few months but if no cure comes up, sorry baby say hi to grampa for me in heaven. ZEROFLY: There is never a cure. Plus, keeping an infected around is risky business and you could end up paying the ultimate price. Kill first, grieve later. astro-boy killer: I agree with KDawgg I must kill my significant other(dramatic voice) ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ''cough cough'' ''wheeze'' Ari: Lock them in the root cellar with extra padlocks and until the cure arrives, we should be fine. flakmagnet: See you in a few months, I'd be able to outrun her and hide anyway... Reaper15: Sorry, but your dead. I cant let another zombie roam around the world. even if a cure is a while away, some zombies may remain hidden and able to repeat cycles, besides I ain't taken no risk. PercerveringGenocide: How often do you get to kill your spouse, with no real remorse. Plus this person was dumb enough to get bitten. Though, I've always told my friends, if I'm ever turned in a situation like this, let me loose among the herd so to speak. I'd like to see how the other side feels, maybe it is a curable virus. If not, I wouldn't want to make my friend shoot me in the head when he could just throw me out side. ShotgunMan: The fact that my loved one had become a zombie would inspire suicide, but I would keep my girlfriend with me if rumors of a cure were going around, and do everything possible to find it. If there was no cure, however, I would force myself to kill her, then blow my own brains out; I couldn't go on without her. |
| Who gets to come along? Sumyunguy: everyone can join because I am slow and if we need to run "sorry bob" blam one to the knee no i am not the slowest any more givemegrace: I would be so glad to see another living person, I wouldn't really care about their skills. People can learn and improvise. PercerveringGenocide: Safety in numbers, Zombie Survival 101. Just make sure, head to toe, there are no injuries, and that this person isn't actually a foe. If all checks out, give em a weapon, discuss a plan, and watch one another's backs. vanrulzz: As long as they ain't bitten, I'm taking them. Safety in numbers and socializing to keep from going insane. DevilMayCrye: People can only join if they have needed skills, otherwise they are dead weight. Shadowdoug- u could just use animals to see if they got bit! personaly i would use a dog sniff then a FULL body inspection then another dog. but if they past the test they may join me. UnUndead: I'd check them for bite marks, then find out what they can bring to the group. If they're bitten, I'd take an ax to their head. If not, and they had a useful skill that we needed, and we didn't have an oversized group, I'd let them in. If they were healthy, alone, and unnecessary, we can always use more meat. | Mr.Awsome: Everyone deserves to live! the more you say no to the better chance they'll become the very enemy your fighting. ZEROFLY: I'm sorry, but unless I know your or you're one of my friends, I am not letting you in. Besides, having a group of people with you, that you don't even know during this type of horrible situation would be a bad idea. They could turn on you for one, or rob you of all of your goods. Then what? You're screwed and you're left there wishing you weren't such a nice person during the apocalypse. KDawgg: Let them in. More people can only help you chance against the undead, but keep an eye on 'em. AngelaB: The more the merrier, unless you're a jerk or have a tendency to make deadly stupid mistakes repeatedly.... flakmagnet: Let them in if they have a decent skill. They'd also have to pass an IQ test of some kind. Like, "do you plan to go wandering into zombie infested areas alone?" Mr-M: I would let them in only in the case that they have additive skills other than the ones we already have. If you let people in that have the same skills as you, you could have a lot of people with one particular skill and none of another skill that could keep you alive. Reaper15: i would surely let them in, however i would keep a very close eye on them for at least a month. i would also ask for ID if they have it and a background check. Rose_Thorns: I would only let them in if they had no bite marks from the zombies, because i don't want to let a potential zombie in. But if they did have bite marks somewhere on their body i would probably shoot them in the head. I'm not trying to be mean or anything i just think that given the chance i should put them out of their misery. Piratelord78: As long as they're of decent character and they're not infected then I'd probably let 'em tag along. I like to think I'm nice like that. Besides, even if they don't bring any skills to the table so long as they've got the will to learn or do whatever manual labor they can then that's all they need as far as I'm concerned. ShotgunMan: As long as you're not completely hopeless or irritating, I'd let you in my safe house. Normally I don't like people, but "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", right? |
| Where will you go? Blackrainbow: I'd hide in a mall, there's a food court, there's probably some knives and stuff... There's a Hot Topic.... Hey! If your in a mall and there's nobody there, steal as much stuff as you can!!! Jasonathon: Must keep moving. There is no 'Safe' only 'Safer'. roxas33: I have to agree with Jasonathon. PercerveringGenocide: I'm headed up north toward the poconoes. They have a lot of isolated shelter there, usually supplies for hunters such as canned food, and guns. Plus, almost all shelter in the mountains have their own electric generators. Not to mentions miles upon miles of open land. vanrulzz: Mall! protected, lots of food, entertainment, its what counts. GunGamer: Stay on the move, there is no place safe, only safer. DevilMayCrye: On the move. That way your base can never be overrun. Arakratty: If my original plan of going to cabbot square dosn't work I'm headed to my school.Just a 25 minute walk. | Sean: Do NOT make a barricade. Ever seen a zombie movie? They always make a barricade. And you know what happens? The zombies break in, or some guy inside the barricade goes crazy, or they run out of supplies. Don't let this happen. Just go around town, gather up EVERYONE you can, tell them to get a weapon and just go around town killing zombies. And every so often break into a supermarket and tell everyone to go get something to eat before moving on. If we do this the whole thing will be over in a few weeks without having to resort to cannibalism or anything. KDawgg: Stay on the move! No where is safe until the zombie attack is done. If it's a class 4 (dooms day) then you may have to find some isolated place that has fertile soil like a farm to live out your life. ZEROFLY: I would stay at my house. It's pretty secluded and I think I could defend my home pretty well. Not to mention that I would know my surroundings, would have supplies and radios, and all of my weapons. I think I would do well at my home. Barricade it up and just see what time has in store for me. flakmagnet: Of the options given, I'd hole up in a school if possible. Easily defensible usually stocked with "food", has some degree of tools (design technology class) and plenty of bulky materials, desks, chairs etc, to re-enforce it with. Rose_Thorns: I personally think that a mall would be better, because it's built strong(to keep robbers away), it has food inside(food court), and it has lots of things u can use as weapons(lawnmowers, knives, and high heel shoes). Piratelord78: I cant' believe I'm saying this, but I'm going to school. My local high school is of 1950's design and is quite suitable, so I'd be hanging out there. ShotgunMan: I live in a small town with a supermarket nearby, so I would gather up survivors, take out any zombies, then raid the supermarket and build up my home as a fortress and have everyone who lives nearby do the same to their homes. We could then keep each other alive while still living in our own homes. But if the number of zombies was too great to handle, I'd gather survivors, supplies, and run like hell. |
| Zombie for 24 Hours | AngelaB: America's Next Top Zombie!!! Or Bite, Bite, Bite. I can't decide, really. Blackrainbow: I'd attempt to do tricks people said would kill me. But I have no clue how to skate... A bit of a problem there. Srg._winters: I would do so many things, it would take months.>=^{[) ZEROFLY: I guess I would be the one biting everything that moved. The more people infected, the better. That way when I am a human again, there will still be Zombies and I can kill them. Unlike most of you, I actually want there to be a Zombie Apocalypse. Mr.Awsome:I'd do everything that people said would kill me. Have a little fun out there! vanrulzz: Bite! bite! Bite!!!!!! ShotgunMan: I would make bets with people saying that I could do something that would normally kill me and live through it. Then I'd do it and make money off people! Only problem is money might not be so useful in the apocalyptic years... Residentmagnum I would try to create a zombie apocalypse like the gas station zombie in land of the dead who was a leader zombie and wipe out the human insurgency However I couldn't kill every human me and others would need food. Cipher234: I would find an unarmed survivor corner him and when he starts screaming like a little girl, I dance in front o him and then just walk away. It would be hilarious to watch his reaction. Mutough: Twenty-Four hour, all-meat buffet. |
| | Blayde: I think the virus as an origin is the most probable course. I'm not much into the supernatural, nor do I give it much thought. Looking at the behavior patterns and other such traits (i.e., locomotion, tendency to cluster, etc.), a super-virus scenario fits almost all the criteria. vanrulzz: Virus for the win! ShotgunMan: Supernatural zombies don't really appeal to me. I'd say virus because it seems more feasible for something like that to happen than, say, voodoo magic. That, and I'm a Resident Evil fan. ZEROFLY: I'm all for the Solanum Virus. That's the only true Zombie virus anyway. GunGamer: I totally agree with you guys. Solanum FTW!! Maricely: I blame the government for everything anyway, so military experiment gone wrong. DevilMayCrye: Virus, probably something like the T-Virus. |
| | Dvergamali: I'm going with my big ol' pickup truck. It seats 6 and I can carry a lot of supplies. Plus its got a Hemi so I can plow right through smaller hoards of the undead. I know it eats fuel like mad though. vanrulzz: We are lucky to have a daycare in the basement, we have access to a bus. Plow, plow, plow! Piratelord78: I've got a Jeep that'll do the job. Not bad on the mileage for an SUV, has some serious off-road capability, won't do too bad plowing through zombies, and can carry plenty of supplies internally and externally. I can easily fit up to four bicycles on the exterior, so if I run out of gas me and my crew can always hoof it by bike or on foot. ZEROFLY: A simple car for me. I can still hold my friends and all of our supplies and guns. Plus, it is easier to control, and in this type of situation it could save on gas and get us a little further than any truck. PercerveringGenocide: Come to think of it, there is an armored car service about 2 miles from where I live, but making it down there in time for there still to be trucks, plus the ability to enter the building and get a key is something I should look into. If not, a jeep or SUV that could be taken off-roading would be best. ShotgunMan: Either my family's Jeep or a motorcycle. The Jeep because it can carry supplies and people and I could probably mount weapons onto it. The motorcycle because it's fast, and I'll probably be travelling either by myself or with my girlfriend, and a motorcycle feels badass. Henrikb4: I take my bike. It's quite and fast (For me). It's also easy to maneuver so driving in narrow places is easy. Bikes are also good in forests. Super-Z: Really and truly I wouldn't know what to drive. I'm not allowed to drive but luckily I know how. he-he Alicestar: I'm going to go more along the lines of industrial mining bulldozer, bad on gas but can be turned into a tank with ease, besides I'm in New Mexico we refine 3/4 of the united states fuel here, it wont be hard to find, just need a hose and a container and some good cover fire and we shouldn't have any problems! DevilMayCrye: On foot. That way your get stronger and you don't have to rely on fuel. 13th.Casualty: CRUISE SHIP BABY! Seafood buffet and congo lines all night! And what with the swimming pool? Geez, they won't even be able to get to me in the middle of the sea! |
| | Cipher234:I posted my reason on the America versus Britain forum. McSkullcracken: Chainsaw, noisy. Katana, rare. Baseball Bat, breaks. Machete, gets stuck. Crowbar, bash those brains in. ZEROFLY: I'm glad that this question has come up. Personally, I would choose to use my katanas. I always have wanted to. And before all of you start quoting the Guide, let me first say that I do own two prop katanas, but I wouldn't use those. The Katanas I have were purchased from Korea (you can't take katanas out of Japan), and they are the real deal. One is a standard company issue for a soldier, another was a generals and they are both beautiful and deadly. I guess I could say I'm slightly crazy for wanting to get in that close, but I do. DevilMayCrye: I have to be like Vergil from DMC 3. Kantana all the way. |
| | Toomin: Walther all the way. Silence is golden and the .22 rim-fire is real light and easy to find. alicestar: lets not forget that .22 rim-fire is lite and comes in boxes of 1,000rnds I cant see how you could go wrong. most people will say that it wont penetrate a human skull but i can tell you as a ballistics expert that any supersonic round will penetrate a skull while its supersonic. Cipher234:In a battle with a horde the high cap mags of the Glock are useful ZEROFLY: I'd take the high cap. It's small and it seems to do the job. DustinEchos104: id use the 22 rim fire because id only be using a side arm if they were closer than the barrel of my rifle can reach so penetration isn't exactly a problem and i want as much ammo as i can lay my hands on. DevilMayCrye: Glock, good damage. 13th.Casualty: To tell you the truth, anything that has a laser sight on it. But I got the Walther for the silencer. cormacr9: the dirty harry hand cannon is the best hand gun.it's the strongest handgun ever built.probably stronger than most machine guns. |
| | Toomin: Easy to use, defiantly my motto when it comes to firearms. And once again a simple, light weapon is what I'd want to carry. Also the semi-auto is great for conserving ammunition. ZEROFLY: Barret for me. ^_^ DevilMayCrye: Barret because if the zombies mutate, I will need some heavy damage long range weapons. Marsden: M-79, call me crazy, but consider how much damage you could do to a horde or even blow through a wall to escape or make a tactical entrance. 13th.Casaulty: Semi-autos are the best. Accurate, easy to use. Don't give me a scope and a laser sight though. There might be a massacre. |
