K, so, this is a general discussion where people share tips about surviving the Zombie Apocalypse. The only requirements here are to remember how far the nearest weapon/grocery store is, or how populated the place you live in is. The larger the spot, the more the zombies. So, you can discuss your basic plan about how to survive, but first, ask yourself some questions, like:
1: What kind of resources do I have?
2: What kind of weapons are available to me now?
2: Where will I go?
Tell about what your main weapon would be (it doesn't have to be a gun), or where you'll go, or if you can improvise.
My main weapons would have to be a shotgun (easy handling, can take out numerous zombies in one shot) or a rifle, and my melee weapon would be a crowbar or an axe, and secondary would be a kitchen or jack knife.

Better then the idiots heading to Walmart.

The mentality behind that would be that everyone thinks everyone is already going there and it would get swarmed constantly by survivors. In reality, it would be like Disney World on opening day: rather empty because everyone thought it would be too crowded.

In the event of other emergency situations do we see these places go empty or do we see these places cleared out? We can expect people to behave the same if the emergency was a zombie apocalypse as they would with a natural disaster.

DO YOU REALIZE THAT I WORK OUT 5 HOURS A DAY WITH SPEARS AND SHIELDS? I AM RIPPED. THIS ALLCAPS POST SHOWS MY RAGE. AND GOING THROUGH SKULLS IS EASY IF YOU GO IN THROUGH THE EYE OR HACK IT OFF AT THE NECK.
/QQ~



Still, even if you do (which I doubt) have you tried it before? have you tried going through a thin sheet of metal 100 times why turning 360 degrees and getting bitten from the back as the numbers overwhelm you?

I've gone through 100 pumpkins with a spear before. And I have a shield too, so if they get around me I just bash them back with it.

about which zed type do we talk, the slow and dumb or the fast and inteligent or about mutated like in resident evil? because the plan to survive changes with the zombie type.

if they are slow just run and hide somewhere safe. if they slow you can shoot at them (even if they notice you, you can still run away while you shoot them).

if they are dumb you can act like a zed like in shawn of the dead (dont forget the stench of death) to get through a zed horde, then search a safe place with no zombies.

if they are fast (depending on how fast), do not try to run (again, depends on how fast they are, if you are faster then run as fast as you can.), use weapons. if there is a horde of fast zeds...well...kill yourself to have a quik death or stand and fight, killing as much as you can before you die.

if they are smart and figure out how to use weapons, run, if they use guns............

You know, I think there are real zombies. Because in Peru? Somewhere around that area, there are gangs who feed people this drug made from puffer fish, and it makes them totally limp and inactive to the point they look dead. So the peoples family or whatever bury them, and then the gangs come back later, dig them up and wake them. The drug destroys their brain cells and they just become the obedient slaves of the gangs.

Well okay... how does throwing roadkill at a zombie stop it from biting you? And how do you plan on surviving in the artic?

living in cold regions sounds smart, but stupid at the same time. lets say zombies are a mixed breed having everything to a smart athletic zombie to the slow and dumb ones that shout "brraains". whats stopping those smart ones from getting you in the arctic. nothing really as they have the smarts to use clothing or maybe a vehicle (no driving it though, as shelter, in my opinion i doubt they would be smart enough to use a weapon such as a gun)
if you are the kinda person who also believes that animals become infected then well most places would be hard to defend. the only places that would be best defended at first, would be a tall isolated building that is airtight with no entrance other than human doorways.

If you lived in the arctic you would need to worry about zombie polar bears and wolves. Not zombie penguin. Also you would need to worry more about food, water, shelter, without that you would definitely die.
