Could you survive a Resident Evil situation?

Could you survive a resident evil situation?

Lets say two senarios, complex(Resident Evil 0,1,CV) situation and city wide(RS 2,4).

Complex situation basicly real life execpt with the outragous puzzles and armaments for such a complex and you start off with a hand gun and a survival knife. Could you make it through the hordes of monsters and puzzle and get out alive?

City Wide Situation, little bit more complex, a known fact is when ever the dead start walking people will drive their cars into the middle of the street and block off any possible vehicle escape(Resident Evil 2/ some of the **** of the dead movies), so you have to make it out on foot, train(maybe) or by air(if you know how to fly). No puzzles and you provide your own weaponry with what you have at your house/work/etc. or what you can find. Mainly just hordes of the standard Zombie mixed with the occasional B.O.W. (Lickers, Hunters, no boss classes) Could you make it out alive?

I live near down town San Antonio, population 998,000(about). And their are no weapons at my house, I'm Supurbly F-U-C-Ked. My only hopes are using the zombies low speed to get to a cop car, get what guns he has in there and blow my brains out, overdose on pills, or baracade myself in(which I know always results in the person dying) and wait for the cleansing nuclear flame to take me out painlessly.

Nope. I would fall in the majorly fucked catagory as well.

Nothing better than a baseball bat and a pellet rifle in my house plus I'm out of shape. I'm zombie food.

Damn no edit.

Firstly lets say by chance you can be driven insane by this happening.

Baracading oneself in in a zombie movie usually results in the person dying painfully(exp. the guy that had the eggs put into him in the jail cell in RS2).

And in the Complex situation I'd also be fucked, since, I suck at puzzles and have never fired a gun in my life. If I could find a sword, I could probly take out the stupid slow zombies easily(sidestep slash) but once something bigger comes along I'll be just laying there waiting for some S.T.A.R.S's brains.

DAMN NO EDIT AGAIN

You CAN'T be driven insane.

Current Weapons in my House, 1 Koeran Standerd Issue Macchette(Grandfathers and I inhearted it) plus 1 Pump 6 Shot Reseve 12 Gauge Shot-Gun(500 Rounds of Ammo in Boxs plus a Bandoiler) Also Grandfathers, Browning MK III(.9mm 100 or so rounds) plus Holster that is mine,

Hmm no Kelvar but plently of Heavy Clothing and I could probably wip up a few dozen Molitve Cocktails if the need arose

Yep I'm ready for Zombies(Few people realise that the number # 1 Best way to kill a Zombie is Fire, Dead bodys emite large amounts of Methane which happens to be quite Falamable, if you got a big enough stick an exact-o Light plus string and a stick is a potent anti-Zombie Weapon)

Zombie Outbreak In Enclosed Area: Serious bad for me . Unless I had some maaajor armaments I'd probably bite it. I don't have much stamina, but though I can probably kill the zombies in various creative ways (I'd re-kill with a shotgun butt if I ran out of ammo). Zombie slow speed is what kills them - they can't strike fast enough to overwhelm you like a human could.

The problem in such a situation is the big bad boss monster (Tyrant, Nemesis, Wesker, etc.) who stalks around looking to kill. Unlike the characters, we can't instantly heal back smashed bones caused from taking a two-handed smash from the front with medikits or herbs. The fast and deadly sons of bitches like the Licker, Hunter and Bandersnatches are also a severe threat to one's survival.

Plus, I wouldn't know the area well enough, I'm not THAT good at puzzles, and worst of all - there is no SAVE function IRL.

Zombie Outbreak in a City: Much better for you. You have much more room to maneuver around and if you're fast and lucky enough, on apartment buildings you can use our friend gravity to eliminate any opposition. Primary plan of attack would be to get the hell out of the place, followed by locating food and arms, medical supplies and other survivors. Too bad I live in a country with strict gun control so there's no convenient "Kendo Gun Shop" to loot and plunder. BEst way to survive is in a car or van. And like Bean said, burn the sons of bitches.

And besides, you don't need guns for zombies. A lead pipe about 3-4ft long would suffice. Stave their skulls in and save the bullets for yourself... Or maybe not. I refuse to accept suicide as an option in any situation unless I can take some other fools out with me.

The complex would be hard. Zombies themselves aren't that difficult to kill, even with minimal weapons. The puzzles would probably get me stuck until a boss or a horde of zombies attacked. Unless I can use my own method of solving puzzles. A bunch of explosives.

City would be easier. I got a bunch of knives, an axe, and can make explosives with what I already have. I also have my car, but even assuming that it didn't work, it's only a 10 minute walk to the nearest subway station. I could probably make it even without breaking into houses for weaponry.

Given your approach you'd probably get kneed in the groin and left for dead.

If they didn't just shoot you of course.

I could do fairly well in the complex, but when it comes to bosses, I just wouldn't have what it takes.

As to the city... Well I will use my area as an example.

Ok, so something knocks on the door late one night. It just doesn't stop. I get a little cautious and grab my Glock-22 (.40 S&W). I go downstairs and get the piss scared out of my by something trying to crawl inside. I quickly assertain what it is and give it a nice present to its brain.

My next reaction is to get word out. I pick up the phone, nothing. So now what I do is I grab all the guns from downstairs. Thats 2 hunting rifles (.270 and a 7mm), one brush gun (lever action 35), 1 .357 magnum, 1 .22 pistol and .22 rifle. added with my Glock 22, I am relatively well set up. I haul all the gear upstrairs. Next I grab all the dry food I got plus some water. Last of all I grab all my car keys and then unplug everything from downstairs. From here I just throw a few things down the stairs and block it off. Now I can use the 2nd story window to get on the roof and see whats going on.

From the roof I quickly note several zombies lurking my way. I take a few potshots with my .22 (its scoped) and probably kill a couple. I also take note of shots in the distance. I now take assesment of my situation. I am safe on the roof of the house, but maybe there are survivors. I got keys to 2 minivans, a 1967 Patrol (jeep clone) and a 3/4 ton diesel truck. I take the .270 and Glock with me (and a backpack with ammo) and jump off the roof and make a quick dash for the truck. Start up the truck and just drive through the zombie horde.

Next stop, Wal-mart. Oh sure, its Wal-Mart, but its the place people are least likely to go. Besides, they still sell Shotguns and Ammo there. I crash the truck through the front entrance and stop. I dash back to the gun section. I toss a half dozen shotguns into the shoping cart and load it up with all the ammo I need. I make a run back for the truck (which is still running) and deal with anything possibly in my way. Toss all the crap in the back of the truck and then get out of there. Running over all the zombies I can of course.

Next stop, the local gun store (we got PLENTY of them in Montana). Here I find a baricaded entrance. I park a ways away and use my newly aquired ammo to pick off zombies at the entrance (I am ontop of the truck). I shout that a live human is approaching and I climb over the baricade (tossing zombies asside) and get in. There is probably a dozen or so people in here. I ask them if they would be willing to give me some Glock-22 clips as well as another pistol and a clipped rifle. I get something from them, and two of them decide to join me.

Next stop, the local Army Reserve station. Here we find plenty of carnage, the zombies just can't approach. M113s and Hummers both armed with M2 machineguns have been tearing through the zombies. With luck, the three of us are given some M4s and M16s because some of the soldiers are dead. After a while from staying at the site, they decide to get the trucks and APCs moving and try and grab some survivors, then bust out. I happily join the convoy.

With 3 such military depots in the area as well as two very nice SWAT teams, I think that enough survivors could get out. Roads would be cleared with the APCs while vehicles would stay in a convoy. Wounded people would be watched over, and the infection of wounded people and recently dead people would be noticed pretty damned fast.

In short, I wouldn't survive the mansion, but if my area were raided, we could do damned well to escape.

Uhhh, ever see a zombie movie or play Resident evil, or see the movie? Driving is entirely out of the question like I stated up in my first post. You have to make your way through the hordes of undead on foot.

Get your ass to Lackland! Get there fast!

I would like to try and survive but i just don't see that happening. My whole goal would be to take out as many zombies as possible. I have a 12g shot gun, and a Samurai sword that i could put to good use in that situation

The area near where I live simply means the drive gets a little rough, but no more. There is PLENTY of open areas. If anything, I can grab the Patrol with the snow plow on it.

In the complex I would be fucked, unless it is the movie Resident Evil, in which case I just turn on the laser web and let the zombies dismember themselves.
In Real Life? I have a shortage of guns in the house, but enough swords to arm every one who lives here and most of our friends.
Step one would be to fight our way to one of the gunshops that lie within easy walking distance. Step two would be to arm up and fight our way over to a Super market to load up on long term food supplies. Step three would be to attempt to link up with an organised military group in the area, I'd go to my own unit, but they would be too damned far away to reach with the roads blocked as always seems to happen. Step 4? Survive until the major organised military formations break through to my area, if they have been overrun or mysteriously disappear as always seems to happen then just try to survive the madness as long as I can.

In the complex I'm screwed.. however the zombies come at my house and they're screwed since I've got plenty of places in the house I can stash myself where they can't reach as well as plenty of BLAM to hand out.

Post by **weemadando** » 2002-10-23 01:41am

The complex is a tough ask. Not to good for me until I could possibly scavenge a weapon or something. But I'm still in trouble.

In the city where I live, too easy. Nice wide streets and a low population density. Easy to cope with zombies when they come at you one or two at a time.

Raxmei · Post by **Raxmei** » 2002-10-23 01:49am

In a city situation, I'm glad I live in the suburbs. Low population density=good. I know exactly where the guns in this house are, and some ammo. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to use them. Response time and accuracy will be poor. I'd probably have to fall back on garden tools.
Instinctively I'd go to CSU Hayward. It's on high ground and some of the buildings are visible from here. They'd probably have helpful stuff there. Any students or faculty that are still alive when I get there would likely be smarter and better suited to survive than me. I'd team up with them. I'd probably get killed long before that happened, though.

Post by **weemadando** » 2002-10-23 01:56am

Ah, the ever reliable garden tools. Personally I run about 3 blocks from my place to the martial arts store, get some nice stuff from there then run a further 4 blocks to a hunting store.

Neko_Oni · Post by **Neko_Oni** » 2002-10-23 02:30am

Complex: Screwed, just don't have what it takes.

City: Hmmm...I live in Australia so there's not much in the way of firearms, and there's NOTHING in my house I could use as a weapon bar some garden tools. However our house is second level with a STURDY front door, I could hide in there for a fair while

Welcome Aussie, I don't think I noticed you previously...

SAMAS · Post by **SAMAS** » 2002-10-23 09:45am

Complex: Not sure, but I'd damn well try.

City: First, I clean out my house of all it's guns, an couple of kitchen knives, and one of my sticks. Then I go for the other houses in my neighborhood. I can handle the few zomies that would occur. From there, I get the biggest SUV I can find, and drive it as far as I can, towards the nearest Pawn shop, get any guns I can, then head to Lowes, and get an axe and a few gas cans. Hit the nearby Gas Station, and get some beer and wine bottles. Activate the pumps, and fill the gas cans. Use them and the alcohol to make a bunch of molotov cocktails(or firebombs, at least). From there, I hit Wal-Mart, and get any guns I can.

Sometime during this, I find eaither an 18-wheeler, or a bulldozer, and make a path out of the city if I have to.

in that situation i'd be fucked, I'm terrified of Spiders and i'd know what was coming, so i'd play the roman fool and fall on my sword.
