Zombie outbreak

[niky]

But those aren't really "zombies" in the classical sense of a zombie (aka re-animated undead).

28 Days Later is a virus that infects humans causing loss of self control, resulting in violence and a particular preference to barf up blood. So technically the infected ones in "28 Days Later" are "alive".

Much like "I Am Legend"... only in that movie, infected humans also gain superhuman strength and speed.

Downside, a typical shotgun would only have less than a dozen shells so it doesn't have as much combat endurance as compared to a machine gun or machine pistol.

Combat shotguns with the extended drum magazine can carry 20-25 shots. Good for groups of zombies.

Flamethrowers should be used with caution. Zombies are not directly affected by flame. A regular zombie running at you will become a flaming zombie running at you if you hit it with a flamethrower. It's effects is more long term, barbequeing the zombie flesh en-mass. Best used when trying to reduce an increasing population of zombies from a secured location.

Exactly my thoughts. Since zombies tend to clump up in small areas while trying to get through portals and are not affected by pain, you can cause a chain reaction of burning zombies with a simple flamethrower and a few pesticide sprayers filled with kerosene.

Chainsaws and converted weedwhackers have their use but I find it limiting and problematic if you are dealing with more than a handful of zombies. Takes a bit of time for a chainsaw to finish off a zombie (aka cutting off the head). Also the general close proximity of the "kill" makes this weapon not for the squeamish.

Lop off hands and attack the mouth. Remove their primary means of attack.

Many Philippine buildings are suited for zombie defense, with barred windows and grilled entrance gates... but you have to choose a building with good workmanship, as the weight of multiple zombies may be enough to pull the grilles out of the wall.

An SM Hypermart would make an excellent fort. You can close the steel shutters over all the entrances, get supplies from the supermarket... batteries, generators and weapons from ACE... and radios and cooking appliances from the appliance center. Hole up with the guards, who'll have enough shotgun ammo to hold off a few zombies while you get the shutters closed. Use fuel from cars in the parking lot (usually underground) for the generators.

You can make bombs from the mini-LPG cassettes and aerosol cans they sell at ACE... and maybe fuel molotov cocktails with paint thinner.

Best of all... Hypermarts are everywhere... and one is bound to be close enough for you to run to once the zombie apocalypse has started (assuming your house is not suitably hardened).

in a post apocalyptic scenario, the only gun you'll ever need is an AK-47 with tiger hollow tip ammo :D

Zombie outbreak....ala Resident Evil kaya?

Wow magagamit ko na katana at wakizashi ko....hehehehe hindi nagiging useless dahil no need for bullets.

[Burai]

i doubt those katanas would be useless pag na mob na ng todo todo, mahiwa mo nga, buhay pa rin lalo na ulo. once na makagat, aruy tapos 'XD' ang muka :lol:
pero pag less mob? pwede ba mag singit ng another movie na hindi zombie related? ninja assasin sana gagawin kong role diyan habang nasa isang zombie infested na lugar
teka, wala bang nagtangka magdala ng rocket/grenade launchers man lang?
molotovs, pipe bombs, lalo na yung 1 up mushroom ni mario

I think the best fenced building is the Central Bank in East Avenue. Grilled 3 inch bars used as walls, 20 feet in height thus allowing you clear visibility in case you want some target practice on zombie heads. Not to mention the presence of a 30 feet drop zone straight to a wide trench that can fit a huge bus. This is then followed by another grill fence. It would have been nice if the only entrance and exit is a draw bridge.

Escape plan:
syempre ZIPLINE, since nasa tuktok tau ng bundok pababa sa patag heheheh.. And a GTR as my escape Car covered with barbwire

hmmm... since out country is less likely to have evil scientists plotting and developing zombie viruses, I reckon they'd first come into the country via Airports or Marinas.

Modifying an AK-47/74/1xx with a silencer and some heatsinks with belt fed ammo might work since in a post apocalyptic scenario, you can't afford weapon jams and cleaning the gun. silencer is there so that it won't attract attention from them zombies :D

to survive, one must conceal and since the dead have compromised vision, their senses are mostly auditory and olfactory. hence, one must cover himself with odor masking and be silent.

I guess the AK is a good weapon of choice. Good penetration and stopping power. Works even if left in a river or buried underground overnight or even longer.

Only downside is the recoil.

The Central Bank is a good location. Me? I'm thinking an island would be nice. Can zombies swim without being devoured piecemeal by fish?

Problem there is the expense and availability of ammunition.

Like I said before, and echoed here:

and

These are the only practical projectile weapons in a Zombie Apocalypse.

Of course, I have a soft spot in my heart for this as the final line of gun defense:



A Smith and Wesson X-Frame .50 caliber revolver.

The bullets are expensive (50 pesos a piece... :hysterical: ), but this gun is available at several malls... and if you're in the middle of a Zombie Apocalypse, it shouldn't be hard to smash your way into a deserted mall to steal a month's supply of ammunition (unlike the .50 caliber military rifles, the bullets are for sale to civilians).

It's a handgun that has the kick and stopping power of a big hunting rifle, and it's reasonably accurate with its long barrel, so you can snipe with one if you can scrounge up a scope attachment.

Only downside is the recoil.

recoil is only and issue in full auto mode for the AK-47/74. in a zombie outbreak, it is more likely that it'll be used in semi auto since you would wanna conserve ammo and not attract attention. but if full auto is needed, the 1xx series has a counter recoil mechanism which improves accuracy twice. plus, it can use NATO rounds

For those who watched the Original Spanish Zombie horror [REC], which was unfortunately ripped by the Hollywood version "Quarantined", the sequel [REC]2 is now available as a HD *******. Like the first, don't watch this alone in the dark. The TV Anchor Angela Vidal apparently survived the ordeal, how she did it is revealed at the end of the movie. Fortunately, there is a part 3 in the works.

[userfriendly]

If its the classic slow moving zombies, my weapon of choice will be a M16 or one of its variants. Light, accurate, plenty of ammo available.

A .22lr semiautomatic rifle will also suffice. Same reasons as the M16 plus you can carry a lot of ammo. Also easy to suppress so the zombies wont hear you. If you are going for headshots, the .22 will penetrate the skull and kill the zombie. No recoil and plenty of ammo means you can shoot all day.

I like shotguns but dont think its the right choice for zombie hordes. Low capacity. Most shotguns carry 2 to 8 rounds only. The AA12 and Siaga are the only ones I know that can have 20 rounds or so. But the AA12 is not available yet. Shotguns also have a lot of recoil. 25 rounds is my personal limit. My shoulder cant take more than that.

Ak 47 is also a great weapon. Problem is ammo availability in the Philippines. It cost about 50 pesos per round when its on stock. The Ak2000 might be a better choice. Same gun as the AK47 but shoots 5.56mm rounds. Same bullets used by the M16.
