You’re right, what a fool I was for confusing the highly realistic threat of a zombie apocalypse (which has not ever, nor will it ever happen) for a video game. I’m sure you’ve killed plenty of zombies in real life so you know exactly what would happen if someone chose to simply decapitate them or blow them apart.
The thing you don’t seem to understand is that a still-functional brain that can’t operate anything is completely useless. Let’s throw basic logic out the window and say that cutting a zombie’s head off resulted in a biting, gnashing head on the floor. It would still be no realistic threat as it would have no way to usefully ambulate, unless you’re telling me that it would hop around or shuffle like in some sort of cartoon. If it was still animate after decapitation then it could only feasibly move by opening/closing its jaw and hoping it rolls in the direction it wants to go in, and god help it if comes to a stop on its own face.
Also the brain’s function is dependent on other organs. If a zombie ended up as just a head it wouldn’t have any base primitive need to eat/bite things anymore as it’s not connected to a stomach or any digestive organs. I’d continue this but seeing as how you’re apparently a ponyfag I expect this to fall out the other ear and you’ll still continue your illogical arguments.
Zombies are different. The brain isn’t still functioning. It is something different now. The virus has altered it to basically just pilot the body according to the virus’ goal: spreading by eating a portion of a living human. The other organs (or lack of) don’t matter any more. You can hollow the damn things out and they will keep coming. Zombies will eat until their stomach split open, and the contents fall out, and they just keep going. Go listen to or read World War Z or something before you try to drop your thoughts into discussion of a hypothetical situation where the established facts counteract your own, cuz at the moment you’re looking dumb. Zombies are the ambulatory dead. Your assumptions are only valid on a LIVING organism. And if you can’t seriously discuss a hypothetical situation…why the fuck are you even here?
In the scenario I posted, I guess zombies isn’t the right word since they aren’t undead. More like savages I guess.
Not like cemeteries would become the barracks or anything. Living turn into flesh craving freaks and the dead stay dead. Headshots not necessary, get the heart to stop working and you win. Blood don’t pump, legs don’t pump. You’re good.
You can go by any scenario you wish, but in the one I posted they aren’t slow. They still have their basic motor skills, but they’d try to break a door down instead of turning a knob. Clumsy though, trip over things every easily.
To add another variable, all mammals are affected by the virus. But the virus mutates based on it’s host. So even though a dog will try to eat a human, it can only infect another dog.
Military would most likely be in a Cut All Losses state. They’d try to rescue at first, but depending on how bad the infection is they may just carpet bomb the area.
Since zombies are dumb and cant swim, and most would fall apart in the water anyway, or the fish would get them heres what i’d do:
Find(if I don’t own one or know someone that does) a reasonably large boat, get all the supplies I could carry from my house, stores, and the town/city i’m in, get a bunch of seeds, soil and gardening equipment(and a gardening book) and fishing gear, and some water filtration stuff, candles and lights, cooking supplies, and a bunch of books. Get some solar powered generators(some small wind and water powered generators as well if possible and a few gas generators for back up), take my 2-to-4 of my most trusted loved ones with me, get on that boat, sail far away enough from the city that people won’t be able to see my boat(so no crazy assholes with guns could try and snipe my peeps). I’d chill on the boat with my family and have a fruit and vegetable garden growing on the deck(in the spring and summer if i’m not in a southern location) and we’d also be fishing.
We could shit and piss in the ocean, we’d have an unlimited supply of food and water, the generators would supply us with power so we could have lights, video games, music and movies. We’d go back to land occasionally to scavenge if needed.
Of course nothing would go that smoothly and i’d probably still end up dead somehow.
Watched Raambok [sic] on netflix last night. German Zombie film, only a shade over an hour.
Dead Rising type stuff doesn’t work without the Duct Tape. Teenager kid had his bent forks and rubber bands for a slingshot with ninja star like ammo. Failed the first try. Building a battering ram worked real quick & easy for the plot though.
Other survivors are very likely to be dangerous to your lifelines/livelihood. You really might want to bunker down even to avoid the Mad Max groups out roaming and pillaging.
It introduced something new and simple enough to keep zombies at bay. Dead Rising could’ve been easier! You can look it up or watch the movie yourself to think it through how likely that might be. It included raged zombies moving quickly - bit people turned quick, and the recent dead came back to life as zombies.
I don’t think filtering ocean water is that easy… might as well all research it anyway. Land of the Dead remake, they just walked thru a river, from the bottom, but being dead anyway its not like they would drown. That’s movie style, not having them float at all though.
okay then the items we will need is guns and lots of ammo and maybe a few porn mags since no rotting women will be scarce
also what kind of zombies we talking about generic or return of the living dead zombies (the ones that can’t die and chop an arm of and it moves by itself) kind?
