Zombie Preparation

[Lord Baal]

IF they are using so much energy I doubt a 1000km swim is possible for them

Besides which, they starve much quicker than other zombie-related phenomena, meaning we could repopulate the Earth much quicker than Romera-type zombies were loose. Of course, the infected in 28 Days Later were a hell of a lot more dangerous than Romera's zombies.

It's about time someone chose zombie/unprepared. Well played, Hygro.

Friend of mine is notorious for that - we'd all know not to trust him in zombie related scenarios - his words were something like "Say we're bunkered up somewhere holding off the zombies. Well, I don't know about you guys, but I know we'd just lose eventually, and would rather switch sides while I still could instead of being totally mauled. Walk up to a window or door and stick like one finger out to be bitten, and then, as I slowly started to transform, charge back at the rest of the survivors ARAGHHH" To be fair this was partly to creep out this one girl, but still.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Jeez I can't imagine the honest discussion of zombiesurvivalism being a particularly good way to attract a girl either.

Maybe she was a goth?

Not sure why so many chose AK-47's as primary weapons when they are notorious for jamming. Thats the last thing you would want when a horde of zombies is headed straight for you.

It makes it more heroic when you die due to faulty equipment than poor tactics? Plus, if your secondary weapon's a grenade, the heroism of your death shoots off the chart.

AK-47's jam really easily, and even though LB pointed out that it would be more heroic to die due to weapon malfunction/failure than poor tactics, it still makes me wonder why one would choose a jam-prone weapon in the first place.

one guy I know shot over 10,000 bullets though an AK and it jammed once

Well i'm sure it varies from one AK to the next depending on the maker and how used it is. Also, 10,000 although a lot of rounds, doesn't take that long to fire using an AK.

Because heroic death scene > individual survival. The people you save need to build statues of you, for posterity.

Where do you hear that AK-47s jam easily? I'm no expert on rifles, but what I've read is that they jam less than most other battle rifles (at least, ones of similar vintage).

Doesn't take that long to fire, but still quite a while to load all those magazines.
