Where would you go if Zombies attacked?

[Adman]

i'd just go solo, if i die no one cares. If people i care about die, i wouldn't know. I'd head up north to where the earth is not as easily travelled upon. Live in a cabin and have several in case things went bad. A four wheeler and a couple rifles, a shotgun and a couple pistols would definately make me feel a little safer, but it's the end of humanity, so who cares.

Solo is the way to go. IF you know how to live with/of the land your golden. I assume the zombies are going to be near highly populated places because of the abundance of food.

being alone definitely has its advantages but it can also be a bad idea. If a roving pack of zombies or looters come your way, your only choice is to hide and evade. You're also downplaying the fact that being alone in stressful situations can have a very negative impact on an individual's psychology.

I'm pretty convinced if this situation really did occur though, I'd probably head out on my own and live as long as I could.

the main problem with being alone is that you can be ambushed while you sleep. I think most of us agree that if you're doing the nomad idea, a small group is the way to go. 5-10 people, tops. Less risk of a crazy, unstable person.

[Adman]

Ya i agree, but what if you get a dog? a good dog trained to wake you up quietly, by nudging you if there's an intruder. I'm going to start training my dog ASAP.

[Adman]

This is becoming more rock solid NN, thanks for pointing out the oversight.

I still remember the sad scene in I Am Legend when he had to kill his dog after it saved his life

That would suck to have to do.

In a submarine, with some kind of infinite energy source, and desalination for drinking water, fish for food I guess. Seems like a solid plan.

A nuclear submarine (one with the nukes) would probably be the safest place to be, for starters the guys on a nuclear submarine are picked carefully (ie they need certain psychological traits which means they will not go crazy if all hell breaks loose, plus they are used to be separated from there love ones for months at a time with no contact.)


I had one idea tho, whats to stop you eating zombies for food? I mean if u cook them well it should kill off any viruses

[Izor]

lol yo, the captain would be able to maintain order pretty well. Youre underestimating the military and the navy especially on how well they follow those appointed over them. Especially in a crisis.

You're missing my point about the crazy lady that no one was listening to her when they all felt safe, because they all felt relatively safe in their convenience store and knew they could sleep and eat and drink. After the windows broke and people started dying, then they started listening because she was acting like she understood what was going on. Plus how hard was it to eventually shut that bitch up?

I'm not underestimating the military, but even military leaders know you can plan for hours upon hours and still not be ready for the surprises that can occur during battle/crazy situations

The people felt safe but they were still nervous as shit (rightly so) and their nerves were frayed on end. That bitch was just a match thrown into a haystack during a heat wave. Yea they shot the shit out her but they left right the fuck after that- hence nomad style.

I don't get why anyone would honestly think nomad-style is safer in the long run than being on a (navy) carrier..
- You're always surrounded by zombies
- You can't do anything to reverse the outcome.
- You've no time to reflect, or make a better plan than: 'okay we just need to keep running and try to get supplies in very dangerous places where we'll sure as hell will get trapped one day'.
- Unlike zombies you need to sleep and rest at times. At night you rely on someone else to always keep a perfect watch out so you don't get attacked while sleeping. EVERY DAY.
- After a year of outrunning zombies and being in stress every day (esp. nights) you will start wondering what the hell the point is of running, then you or one of your companions goes crazy. If you last that long ofc.

Now as for the carrier:

Just like when you pick your group of nomads, I'd carefully screen the people who'd be allowed on my ship. There'd be a zero possibility someone with a bite would make it on board.

In a carrier, you have time to sleep, reflect on the situation, and decide on some proper plans to eventually battle these zombies. You probably have access to helicopters, which makes it very easy to make short trips and pick up supplies. Also makes it possible to examine the situation and stay up to date with what's going on.
Unlike going crazy because at one point you give up and you lose the plot, you could actually do something about your situation: Decide to become billion-zombies massmurderers, or if you have some mad-scientist a-la Will Smith on your ship you could spend years and years to try and come up with an anti-virus (way more dangerous ofc; but a bit more humane I suppose)!


Such a long post, I'm such a nerd.
I'm right though! Then again w/e this self-proclaimed bullshit 'tw beautiful ppl club' is, they're just trolling up this thread.. i think people who need to remind everyone they're in a 'club' together in every post are being pretty annoying.. (i'll just ignore it tho; just my 2 cents on that matter. have fun w/e. :turned

I like how people in this thread think a Stephen King film is a legitimate reference for human behaviour.

I am all in for navy carrier too. But I would bring soil and seeds (can not live too long without fruits and veges). Also I would have brought a couple of lifeboats - so if anyone shows any sign of sickness, no matter how slight, I would put that person in the lifeboat with plenty of food and water, leave him/her in the sea for several day (long enough for the dormant stage of the virus infection to pass). I will always come back for the person. If she/he is fine, I will take the person back into the carrier, if she/he becomes a zombie, I will shoot it in the head, dump the body in the ocean and take back the boat. Or if I could find a lot of tiny islands then I would be slightly more humane and leave those people on the island with food and water. If they did become zombies, I would just have to black mark those islands on my navigation map and only come back if I could find the anti-virus.

Would be nice to have helicopters and ammunition - just in case you need supply of certain things or want to rescue certain people (like scientists who can device the anti-virus).

People would not go crazy, because it is fairly safe to stay on a carrier far away from the land, you have company (the average every day nomads you collected on the ship). And there is hope ...

I would gain some mystical power and learn how to use a weapon and start living like the game in diablo 2.

well let me help you

- You're always surrounded by zombies
- You can't do anything to reverse the outcome.
- You've no time to reflect, or make a better plan than: 'okay we just need to keep running and try to get supplies in very dangerous places where we'll sure as hell will get trapped one day'.

-It's a zombie apocalypse, you're going to be surrounded by zombies anyway.
-Reverse the outcome of what? The zombie apocalypse? Yea that shit's pretty much done and done.
-If you can't think on your feet and adapt to the ever-changing circumstances than nomad-style survival is the least of your worries during a zombie attack

- Unlike zombies you need to sleep and rest at times. At night you rely on someone else to always keep a perfect watch out so you don't get attacked while sleeping. EVERY DAY.
- After a year of outrunning zombies and being in stress every day (esp. nights) you will start wondering what the hell the point is of running, then you or one of your companions goes crazy. If you last that long ofc.

-The sleeping bullet is the same deal nomad style as it is on the carrier. I'm not Ronn, sleeping in the middle of an open field is not my idea of surviving
-I've been mentioning since page 1 about how it's the zombie apocalypse and how people are going to crack under the strain regardless of where they are. Most people that survive aren't going to last 3 months, much less a year. A year in a wal-mart or on a naval carrier is going to be just as shitty mentally, as it would traveling from place to place

Now as for the carrier:

Just like when you pick your group of nomads, I'd carefully screen the people who'd be allowed on my ship. There'd be a zero possibility someone with a bite would make it on board.

You actually believing that you can negate a certain outcome 100% and that your plan is foolproof already has me wondering about your decision making abilities.

In a carrier, you have time to sleep, reflect on the situation, and decide on some proper plans to eventually battle these zombies.

You sleep when you're traveling around from place to place as well- do you think people would be running 24/7? Reflect on the situation? What is there to reflect on? Everyone you have ever known and ever loved is probably dead or dying a horrible death right now? You're surrounded by people who are just as freaked out, mentally exhausted and high-strung as you are?

Eventual plans to battle zombies? Boom- there goes your 100% chance of avoiding people with zombie bites getting on your carrier. In battle the only thing 100% certain is that nothing is ever going to go according to plan perfectly.

You probably have access to helicopters, which makes it very easy to make short trips and pick up supplies. Also makes it possible to examine the situation and stay up to date with what's going on.

Really? And what if you don't have helicopters? What if the only people that can fly them get bit or die on one of these trips at some point? Do you have the fuel to have flying lessons? The motherfuckers that control the flow of food and supplies control the pack, which is what your rag tag group will eventually melt down to, straight primal style. In all zombie movies you always have some jackass that gets selfish or greedy and fucks things up for everyone, especially in a "wait them out" type situation. Instead of preparing for the inevitable you're simply pretending it won't happen.

Unlike going crazy because at one point you give up and you lose the plot, you could actually do something about your situation: Decide to become billion-zombies massmurderers, or if you have some mad-scientist a-la Will Smith on your ship you could spend years and years to try and come up with an anti-virus (way more dangerous ofc; but a bit more humane I suppose)!

oh ok yea lets bomb a couple of zombie cities and release unknown agents from the decaying bodies into the atmosphere, that sounds like a great idea

Hate much?

Man I'm really jealous I'm not in this self-proclaimed awesome club they're just trolling up the thread by posting ideas I disagree with...I think we need to remind people that haven't invited me that I have feelings too and they're hurt right now but I'll just ignore them and won't talk about it woops lol I already did haha that's just my two cents on the matter I'm going to swap out my tampon and play battleship, I'm awesome at that

ps please invite me my vagina is sore

[gran guerrero]

Diablo 3 is supposedly coming out on 09/09/09
