How to move in a rage zombie invasion
Aug 1 2008, 11:38 AM EDT
One problem with the rage zombie is its speed in a regular zombie case you can make it to a building and barricade it by the time they come. The same is not true for rage zombies they will run after you arriving shortly after you do. My thery is to find some way of preparing a base while he main unit stays behind. Any ideas? Do you find this valuable?

This is an interesting problem... Hmm... assuming I am in a group and we have plenty of ammo, I will have everyone back themselves into a room (preferably with one solid door and no windows.) The door will be closed as the last person comes in. Some of the group members will hold the door shut (and lock any locks). The rest get as many large and heavy objects they can and barricade the door.

sit for a few hours until cool... (wait it out until they leave)

Once it becomes quiet out, we carefully remove the barricade and crack open the door. Weapons at the ready we check if it is clear. we then leave.

If the coast is not clear, we take whatever we have and bash the wall opposite of the door open. (First a small hole for looking, then one the size of a human for escaping)

If the other side of the wall is filled with ragers, then we make a small hole in the floor (assuming there is room under us. If that doesn't work, we go for the ceiling.

If even THAT doesn't work, then we wait it out as long as possible, and once we run out of food, we make a break for it.

But dont zombies not cool down and leave wont they just keep trying as long as they thought you were there you would need an outside distraction. Thats one problem as well how to make them go away. one idea i have is the paintball or air gun. Silent shot and if you hit metal far away it wiould make a loud noise 1  out of 1 found this valuable.

first off, i think that the rage zombie would b one of the worst situations posible, and that it is also the most likely. As for a base? I think that we can learn from the movie we are actually talking about, 28 Days Later. Okay, so I think that the best bet would b an apartment, a couple floors up, baricade the staircases. Its already their, up off the ground, and if you get enough ppl together, especially scared ppl, i think that an apartment could b turned into a fortress of sorts, at least temporairly. Some build, others shoot. Plus the Z's have the distraction of all the stupid paniced ppl outside, u know, the ones that r doomed to die and that u will then have to kill again. But yeah, i think it would b posible to use the whole top section of an apartment as a base, once u blockade off the bottom and clear the floor abouve u of any infected.

i believe that it is always a bad idea to trap yourself off the ground. The rage zombies, however, had one weakness that normal zombies don't... they are not reanimated corpses... like those infected with rabies... they are simply robbed of their higher functions... and as such forget to feed themselves etc. A rage Zombie infestation is a simple waiting game. That was part of the point. Though, it won't take 28 days. Since they are not obeying the bodies needs for food and water, they'll be dead within a few days... of dehydration then renal failure which will lead pericarditis -thusly heart failure, aneurysms and several other complications that will simply shut the body down relatively quickly Do you find this valuable?

Those rage zombies are the easiest to deal with...They are not dead and they will die if they don't eat...And if they don't find any humans than they will just kill each other....The end..The invasion should stop within 10 days...But with normal zombies it could on for years....

But during those 10 days it would be complete chaos resulting in the same destruction of that of the slower zombies in a smaller period of time. 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Well, I wouldn't say MORE damage... more like, different damage... From what I just heard, it's smooth sailing for everyone who is ready for it... Now, rage zombies are not immune to bullets. They are immune to pain, but bullets do a lot more then inflict pain.

If I'm in a room with one door and no windows, even if the door is wide open, anything that is coming in is coming in straight at me. A shotgun blast in the chest will drop them dead after 10-20 or so, depending on how they pile up, they will block that doorway by themselves.

Also, waiting isn't such a bad plan. They only need one excuse and they're off chasing something (real or not) Short attention span and all that. :P

Let's say you are in a...library...for the night. In the morning if you need to move, I suggest planting a small remote detonated explosive in or outside that library and set it off once you're far enough. The explosive doesn't have to destroy the building, just make any zombies curious. Of course, if you're ABSOLUTELY SURE there are no ragers in the vicinity of your area, then don't do this.

Also, if you're already on the move, you can just drop a remote detonated explosive on the street, then set it off when you're far enough. Ragers will think something's there.

One idea i came up in the distraction department is the good old paintball gun quiet to fire and if you can hit a metal object it could distract them enough to escape from your circumstances. Do you find this valuable?

I advocate using tactics that would work against human opponents (beside the ones that rely on fear) because they would work against Rage zombies. However, martial artists are doomed, since from what I can tell, they infect by barfing on you....so wear full clothing and a helmet. Do you find this valuable?

i c yur point about them starving, but I still say yur best barricaded above ground. I wouldnt want to sit around in a windowless bunker waiting a few days to a week and then come out and find that the infection has spread and infected r everywhere. Sure, eventually they would all die out, but pretty much everyone u care about or love would b infected, and thus doomed (unless a cure could b found). I would rather risk my life and fight it, that may b stupid, but i dont care. As for being "trapped" above ground, its better than being on the ground. Being rage zombies, they can run just as fast as before they were infected, only they wouldnt get tired, like those of us who arent infected. Therefore a foot race between an infected and someone who isnt infected is pretty much doomed, unless u can kill them or get inside a building and lock the door. Granted then they will just come thru another door or window. So once again, i think yur best bet would b above ground. Just my opinion.
