What if they aren't slow?

[LenoirGunner]

What are we going to do if the zombies are not slow and ignorant? What if the zombies are like Olympic athletes that can run faster, jump higher, bob sled better, and lift more than us?  How would our zombie fighting tactics change?

[Garufa]

Your tactics won't change, you'll just die faster.

^that

[Oh Shoot]

Fast zeds, it's all over.

I know its semantics at this point but I dont think something could make zombies stronger than they were as a human.  If anything itd be just because they dont have the mental block to conserve strength or stamina limitations.  That limitation would come for them due to them not being able to naturally repair the muscles they tore down.  So SUPER scary at first, then not so much after they wear their bodies down.

Would your same argument also make it illogical for them to be super slow? SO really they will be like animals with rabies.

If they are smart and fast, I may hire a few of them for my shipping crew! :)

Clearly you haven't been to a Walmart recently. Trust me - the Zeds will be fat, in sweatpants, and probably riding on scooters

[Guest Bonedaddy]

Common sense hypothisizin' a fictional creature named Zed. Hmmmm.........

[Caster]

I hope they are fast. It's high time somebody knocked man off his arrogant high horse.

Who wants to live forever anyway? Shooting shuffling walkers is boring. Man needs a challenge.

[Guest Bonedaddy]

Then use a single shot and keep your ammo in some tight jean pockets.

not neccessarily due to affects on the mind and reaction timing.  Much in the same way when youre not fully awake you are clumsy and cant react fast to anything.

[BigK]

I don't want to play, if they're fast.

I'm too fat, old, and out of shape for that shit. The only thing fun about the zombie apocalypse was supposed to be that for once, I'm faster than my counterpart.

I think I'll just take up sloth hunting instead. Edited July 13, 2013 by BigK

You just summed up my thoughts exactly.  And my physical condition unfortunately.

[gunwhatgun]

Well, if they are fast a .22 won't get it done because knee cap shots to create obstacles to slow them down will be important. Weapons wit a giggle switch will be very import, I refer you to the knee cap shots.

If they are fast then alot of people who planned to use .22 lr as their ultimate zombie gun are screwed. My nightmare would be 28 days later style zombies. If that were the case I'd want an 240 Golf with a lot of ammo for anything where I didnt have to carry it and a good autoloader shotgun for up close. 458 SOCOM or .50 Beowulf SBR with a can and an auto sear for a rifle. Hard hitting rounds that caused massive trauma and hit with good expansion and force transfer would be top of the list.

Tapatalk ate my spelling.

[turkeydad]

Considering the obesity rates here (myself included) in Tn I would expect at least 4 out of 10 to be farly slow.  .you know with more around Golden Corral. .and less around Whole Foods. . . :panic:

Will the ACLU defend Zombie constitutional rights is the question.

That depends on how much money they can make from the cause.

Is there a differen in the ACLU and zombies? They both shuffle around unintelligently feeding off people just trying to survive.

That's funny

^Troof!

[Spiffy]

IF they are fast they won't be Zombies. They will be rage virus monsters but not zombies!
