Anyone who has played this game know the specifics.
But for those of you who are not l33t, and I use that term lightly, the basic situation is zombie apocalpyse. But trust me, read the Wikipedia article.
Anyway, you can be either:
- One of the FOUR human, LIVING survivors.
- One of the FIVE special zombie classes.
- A member of the generic 28 Days Later Zombie Crowd, aptly named the "Horde"
- OR you can be one of the still living rescue operatives such as a pilot, a train or subway man, a boat driver, or a military whatever.
Survivor and Special Zombie slots are open to ANY of the first few posters, and by that, I mean post a picture of yourself as that class. You don't have to wear the exact same clothing as whichever survivor you intend to portray, simply give yourself a weapon resemblant of them and put your character in a "zombie-fighting pose".
Note, I also said FIVE zombie classes. Boomer, Hunter, Smoker, Tank, and Witch.
Generic horde zombies are fast but frail. Look up any Left 4 dead video and you'll see what the Horde is like.
Smokers can grab you from afar, and have really long tongues that can be used for more than combat. (Obligatory sex joke.)
Boomers are fat, almost gelatinous zombies. Think Melvin Underbelly from Overlord only maybe a little more sanitary. Rupture, and KABOOM, they cover the Survivor or any human character in goo. This can also attract any Horde Brawlers.
The Hunter is the zombie "lineman". Nuff' said.
The Tank is...well, a zombie on steroids.
And the witch...there is nothing to describe the witch. She doesn't have magic powers, but she has REALLY long fingernails and is a woman experiencing drastic menopause.
Survivor Brawlers are significantly weaker but are allowed to wield weapons and have the liberty of infinite ammo while using them. By weaker, I mean, if your character was immune to something or strong against something, they aren't anymore.
In comparison to a normal "non-survivor", the Survivors can be taken down in a couple of hits. However, the Survivors are the only "living" Brawlers who can wield superior firearms like rifles and grenades, as well as heralding the aforementioned infinite ammo.
Lastly, the picture below is simply to represent the four Survivors.
OBJECTIVES:
Survivors: The goal of your four-man team is to reach a rescue point. To reach this, you must go through FIVE checkpoints, in our case, 6-7 pictures of surviving zombie opponents. Your choices include: a Helicopter, if you happen to have a friendly spare character or ally who is a pilot, a Boat, if you haven't watched Dawn of the Dead, a Plane, another Pilot scenario, a train, if you dig that kind of thing and aren't terrified by Half-Life 2, or any other methods of escape that all for of your group can use.
Non-survivor extras are simply there to aid or hinder the survivors by plundering their supplies and/or stealing their weapons.
Zombies: KILL. EAT. MOVE ON.
