If a biohazard were to happen in real life...

[Andyfer_Ruu]

I havnt seen a thread like this around here, and i thought it might be fun to see what people come out with. Right...he's the idea. There is a biohazard outbreak where you live on the raccoon city scale. What you do? how would you get your food, water etc....? Would you try and escape? Or would you take the Frank West approach and run around in your boxers weilding a traffic cone (he's covered wars ya' know)

[Daargoth]

I'd band with my friends, me as the leader of course lol, take

Spoiler:

show spoiler

that book and use it to the fullest. I'd probably go into a police station for ammo and weapons. Food and water...well food can be retrieved at the supermarkets but it might be kinda tough with zombies around to stay safe. Water is easy enough to find.

As far as leaving, I say helicopter..its the only way I see myself getting away..panic rooms are not good places to hide lol.

I covered wars too ya know...

[Deadbeard]

I haven't covered wars so I don't have Frank's ability to spit bullets and punch through bulletproof vests and rip out entrails barehanded so I'll stick to a safe defensive place using the Zombie Survival Guide to not get mauled horribly.

Daargoth, you made a big no no in your choice. Heading to the police station would be a problem since most other people would probably head there as well, making it a hotbed for zombies. And you've got a point that water is easy to find, but drinking tainted water could get you very ill.

In the case of an actual outbreak...I'd find something to use as a melee weapon. Guns jam, run out of ammo, and create a lot of noise which would attract zombies and other humans. I wouldn't trust many people at all. The human element could be worse than the infected. An ideal safe house/location would be somewhere the zombies couldn't reach, like up in a hay loft or tree house. If I need to shoot the zombies with anything...I'd take Krauser's route and use a bow. Arrows can be fletched if you learned how, the weapon can be just as powerful as a gun, and providing the arrow isn't damaged you can reuse it. I'd avoid highly populated areas or places other people are likely to go/be (hospitals, police stations, malls, etc).

I'd find as many women as possible and invite them back to my storage chest. Those things have limitless space. I'd hang out in there, and wait out the apocalypse until Alice & Leon scrubbed the virus from the face of the Earth.

I'd stock myself with supplies(perishables, water, batteries, flashlights, etc etc), stuff em in a big ol' bag, and drive to Canada because I feel like the zombies and/or virus would have less of a chance to flourish in cold weather. As far as weapons, I think an aluminum bat is the best choice. They don't break, they're easy to wield, and fun to kill with.

I'd also bring a camera to document the events so they could make a movie out of my experience if I didn't survive.


Finally, I'd try to find a group of people to stay with -- preferably a young brunette woman, a young black businessman, a crazy old Army veteran and a tattooed biker with a mohawk and goatee. Yeah. That would probably be my crew. We'd drive around and listen to the radio and tell stories and yell at each other, "PILLS HERE!", "Pipe bombs over here!"

We'd have a blast.

Hunted pounced ChrisRedfield29!!

/!\ Bill startled the Witch!

As fun as it would be you'd have to test your mettle against the AI director and his legion of hordes and Tanks.

[Vector]

Oh, and we'd also shit our pants every time we heard the sound of a 'little girl' crying.

That music...oh man...that music still gives me chills:

Supplies; GETTING.
Weapons; GETTING.
Friends;...*Goes to each friends house*
Then I'd...set off somewhere safe, and kill, yeah, kill zombies, and, try to escape, yeah.

ugh good point....maybe search squad cars on the street for pistols and shotguns?

or...we can use THIS plan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjEym0TohQw

[Scream]

I would probably refer to a thread on http://zombiehunters.org/forum/ since its been done to death over there.

[Darinl1979]

I would probably stand in my living room for a good 10 minutes debating if I had time to unhook my PS3 and bring it with me or not. After that I would run outside and look for another survivor that could be of use to me. If RE has taught us anything....the girl in the short skirt/revealing top will be your best bet. Even if it turns out to be wrong, at least you have nice scenary to gawk at.

[nemesiswontdie]

damn, a zombie outbreak here n kansas? thatd be nice, itd get rid of all the fucking retards here

but id probably bring a trusty MK.23 SOCOM ( my fav handgun ) since it packs a punch and can be fitted with a silencer, some water and probably a camcorder like cr29 said. and probably go to a gun store since the one over here is heavily lock
but to be honest id probably wouldn't make it, i couldn't bring myself to shoot another person even if it is NOW a zombie but it was still a human. but then again, id would like to survival cause i don't mind living, but wat about the nightmares you would have?

[Enrico Marini]

I'd dress myself like the stay puft marshmallow man. They can't bite what they can't reach. Though I'd have very limited movement.

Moral of Day of the Dead. Do something about them before they overpopulate the earth and you can't. So everyone grab a shovel and kill at least 10 before becomming a zombie yourself. Make it easier for the others .

[Andyfer_Ruu]

Id barricade myself into my house until my food runs out. Then id take back alleys and hop over gardens to get to a shop and then stock up on food, water and the odd cornetto.
For a weapon id use anything i can find...hockey stick....cricket bat...baseball bat..things like that.

I wouldnt try to escape, it would be too dangerous since id have to go through town to do it. And as we all know, going into a town/city in an outbreak is suicide.

Now...if i went all dead rising about it, id clobber them with my garden hose of justice, blast them with the frags of truth, resuce a survivor or ten and then escape to raccoon city in a helicopter that comes for me in 3 days. I mean, whats the worst that could happen in raccoon city?
