Guys, in real life if a zombie outbreak occured we wouldn't even know about it. The national guard or the military wouldn't even be deployed. The police would eliminate any threat of zombies.

But what kind of an excuse can devs or directors make that the law enforcement/military failed to contain zombies? What excuse would you give out the audience?
For some reason every zombie game/movie has to have a CIVILIAN with no military experience that suddenly becomes a professional zombie killer.
What I want is a game where you actually play as military or police fighting the zombies.

I honestly felt WWZ (The novel) handled them the best. The only reason Zombies got as far as they did was because of humanity just assuming they wouldn't actually wind up real, and when they actually DID wind up being real, people were caught off-guard and panicked, which caused tons of simultaneous mishaps and caused the infrastructure to fall apart. People were their own enemies first and the zombies just picked up from where others left off. And they also didn't die from taking three pistol shots to the gut. Hell, you could shoot them in the face and they didn't give a shit. Plus there was all of that science about them having a body made of some gel-like substance rather than just "Rotting flesh".

It works substantially better when you consider that the zombies are a catalyst for international collapse rather than some form of opposing military that are organized. And for God's sake, stop making these gay "Fast Zombies" that die to two gunshots or being conked with a shovel. They aren't intimidating anymore, they're just bodybuilders of questionable motive that have a deadly bite.

Zombies have attacked the building you and your waifu are in. You run up the stairs but they keep coming.

You see a broom.

Do you smash the broom over the closest zombie?

No, you fucking idiot. You push them back. Push them down the stairs. Doesn't even take that much energy.

Want proof?

Walk up to someone on the street and thrust the broom at them. They'll stumble. Do the same to a person on some stairs and they'll grab the handrail.

Zombies don't know what a handrail is so they won't grab it. They'll fall all the way down. May even break something!

It's because zombies would have absolutely no fucking chance whatsoever if peoole knew beforehand what they were. People would know what they look like, what they do, how they transmit it, how to kill them.

Hell I'd like to see fucking zombies try and conquer places like Texas where every man woman and child has like 3 guns to their name though I doubt they'd make it that far, nature cleans up quickly so things wouldn't go very well for the walking corpses.

Are you retarded
Machineguns are just going to shred their legs and crap, sure you'll hit some of their heads but they're highly ineffective against gigantic hordes. You'll actually start feeling despair because despite all that firepower you're throwing at them, they'll keep coming because they don't feel pain or discouragement.

Eventually you'll run out of fucking ammo or the zombies have advanced far enough for you to pull back.

You basically need everybody going for the head, which most trained soldiers aren't used to because they're trained to hit the center of mass.

Yes, but you're not going to have regular resupply and fuel dumps just because you're in the military. Your vehicle similarly won't wind up in a perfect situation where you are firing clean hits to the head on every zombie you cross ahead to and they all stand perfectly still in a big mob that's opposite your base and none of them ever shamble their way past you. On top of that, you need to consider that you're getting messages from HQ only for a certain point before they themselves get overrun.

I live in a country of 5,5 million people where 1,6 million are centralized near the capital while the rest are spread out across the rest of our country.
The supermarkets near me aren't so populated that I'd get overwhelmed there.
There's also a lot of empty parking space and nothing around them that I'd easily spot any zombie hordes heading my way.

If you're talking about other survivors wanting to shoot me then think again. Guns are very scarce here and I'd be surprised even after police and military had been taken out of the equation, not many people would succesfully go looting firearms. Especially in this area.

You know what REALLY cheeses me off, anons?

Back in the early days of the DayZ mod, people were suggesting zombies should only be killable by headshot

I don't get this meme. Just because you've been infected by a disease it somehow magically makes you immune to all damage below the neck to the point where you can have your entire lower body chopped off and still indefinitely survive?

I mean if it's magical zombies then sure but I don't think this Arma 2 mod heavily focused on survival and an SHTF scenario was going to be using magic as an example

Why though? You could have died from natural causes, grown some kind of weird fungus that controls your brain via electrical impulse after death and that brought you back to life, but that wouldn't necessarily mean that your body would be immune to damage

In fact it seems nowadays that a big trend with zombies is to make them "infected", where they never died at all and aren't the living dead, but the insane living due to whatever rabies-like ebola-like virus they're carrying

Insane living that causes you to rip out your friends' organs is pretty horrific. Not to us jaded fucks, sure, but as a general concept to the layman it is.

if they're not magical and there's only one or two survivors left kicking, what are they eating? I never see them eating each other for some reason, despite being dumb as bricks and supposedly just attacking whatever moves (but have some unknown mechanism to prevent them from eating other?). I mean the law of conservation tells me that they have to be using energy to move, so that energy needs to be replenished.

He was a normal zombie that was trained to be good with hopes of being rewarded with food by Frankenstein like a dog. If Frankenstein was able to keep his experiments going, he would have been good even without the reward of food.

One of the guys in the movie said that he saw a zombie trying to drive a car down the street.

In Dawn of the Dead the zombies are at the mall because they remember going there a lot so they are naturally drawn to it. Bub remembered how to operate guns and shave just like those zombies too.

Well for me, zombies are just like a small time threat. The bigger problem is the virus itself. I mean shit man take Resident Evil for example, from a virologist standpoint the T-virus is fucking horrifying. Pretty much a 100% infection rate on ANY contact, cross species infection, 100% mortality rate (which actually wouldn't be that bad, the virus would burn itself out very fast allowing for survivors) the issue is of course, those who die dont stay dead.

I tell you what I want though, I WANT A MOTHER FUCKING CROSSED GAME

in that book the zombies are classic and only die when their brain is destroyed. so the artillery would maim them horribly and suck their guts out through their mouth but they'd still keep coming.

Well there are kind of different "tiers" of infected. At the bottom are the pure animals who are all about instant gratification. Then you have some that are smart enough to realize "if we team up, we have a better chance of finding people to rape and murder."
