Woot, safe zone.
So if a plane was flying with no infected what would happen?
They already tried what you are talking about. Everything used for combat today does not work against zombies. Zombies do not need food, water, sleep, and cannot be injured. They can be slowed down, but they will still come. You can blow off a zombie's arm, and they will keep coming. You could put a round in it's spine and it will just crawl at you.
Washington...Safe...i can play L4d in peace.
[QUOTE=Zambies!;17952644]So if a plane was flying with no infected what would happen?[/QUOTE] It would fall out of the sky because of lack of fuel. Nowhere to land.
Even if it landed in a safe zone?
[QUOTE=Higginz511;17952660]Washington...Safe...i can play L4d in peace.[/QUOTE] In 8-9 years after the initial outbreak. The safe zone in America wasn't done until then.
[QUOTE=Uberman77883;17952661]It would fall out of the sky because of lack of fuel. Nowhere to land.[/QUOTE] Ok nothing would be able to move because the only evidence of the zombie is little tiny bits
What? Can you say that in English?
Some people fail to grasp what uberman is explaining. Modern bombs and tank shells are nice, but unless something goes through the brain not much is going to happen.
[QUOTE=Uberman77883;17952692]What? Can you say that in English?[/QUOTE] You can't be wrong can you?
[QUOTE=facepuke;17952684]Ok nothing would be able to move because the only evidence of the zombie is little tiny bits[/QUOTE] You still fail to see what I am trying to tell you. Everything we have now was proven to not work against zombies. All around the world armies tried to nonchalantly annihilate the zombie hordes with their fancy hardware. They all died.
[quote=credesniper;17952698]some people fail to grasp what uberman is explaining. Modern bombs and tank shells are nice, but unless something goes through the brain not much is going to happen.[/quote] it cant move at all because there is nothing left
The safe zones look slightly lopsided.
But what happens when the thousands upon thousands of zombies come scratching at your tank? What happens when you are retreating from the merciless horrors and you run out of gas?
Okay, so you have a weapon that does a large amount of damage... Now you can have that near a coast line, but Zed won't just sit there and let you take out small groups of it at a time. It'll move, go into the sea. And even then, it'd be far more productive to spend the money and time making bullets rather than large specialized rounds for ships.
Ok I'm starting to grasp the concept It would Disable the zombie but isn't cost-effective
Lemme explain this. Landmines: Don't work. Bombs: Don't work. Just because it makes a big boom doesn't mean it will vaporize every zombie in the area. You would be lucky to kill 100 zombies in a large horde with a bomb. These hordes number in the millions.
Atomic bombs?
[QUOTE=facepuke;17952749]Ok I'm starting to grasp the concept It would Disable the zombie but isn't cost-effective[/QUOTE] Finally. Plus, disabling the zombie doesn't do shit. You have to put a round in its head then lop its head off to ensure a zombie is really dead. Countless people died from thinking that a disembodied head was harmless.

[QUOTE=Zambies!;17952768]Atomic bombs?[/QUOTE] Are you serious? Several nukes were shot at each other and it permanently changed the atmosphere. Also it would make the area unlivable for many years. Not only that but it would cause countless amounts of damage to the country. No, just no.
Why the fuck isn't Alaska in the yellow?
I get it. [editline]09:28PM[/editline] ITS FUCKING ALASKA. :v:
[QUOTE=facepuke;17952778]I said that The bomb would kill but it would be more-cost effective to use bullets[/QUOTE] It's hard to kill a zombie. You gotta shoot it in the brain, not the head, the brain. Plus infantry are more effective than tanks. Basically the entire strategy against hordes in the open was to make a ridge or a trench, and keep shooting and shooting until everything is dead. And it worked. [editline]10:29PM[/editline] [QUOTE=raccoon12;17952806]Why the fuck isn't Alaska in the yellow?[/QUOTE] Because half the year you would be without resources, the other half the zombies would thaw out and come to eat you.
So 5 soldiers would be more affective then an Abrams tank?

Edit: if it goes through their brain

No, because machine guns are too inaccurate to hit a guy in the head from several hundred meters away. Infantry is the only thing effective against zombies. In fact, the reclamation forces marched in columns like the civil war.

You gotta do this: A. Shoot it in the head if you can. B. Be able to move faster than the zombie to take out your Lobo (Shaolin spade on one end, axe on the other) and slice it's head off.
