halfmanhalfbronco Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 For those of you who don't know, plague inc is a mobile game where you can create diseases to destroy the world. Yesterday they launched the Cure campaign where it is your job the control the worlds response to a global pandemic. Created working with pabdemic response groups and think tanks around the world. It is a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealthlobo Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I got pretty good and killing off the human race. Make ur bug super contagious (cough sneeze) but low mortality rate so scientists don't get too concerned, then mutate it to max mortality and wipe out the world!

Total organ failure is my favorite way to kill everybody in the game. Also it’s awesome when you use the cheat and just infect everybody without them realizing it. thelawlorfaithful, on 31 Dec 2012 - 04:01 AM, said:One of the rules I live by: never underestimate a man in a dandy looking sweater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually start in China and have to harden my disease against cold weather otherwise Greenland will never get fully infected. thelawlorfaithful, on 31 Dec 2012 - 04:01 AM, said:One of the rules I live by: never underestimate a man in a dandy looking sweater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start in Saudi Arabia, but immediately research cold II and water as soon as it reaches a country that can get it to Greenland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaztecs Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 America tried the method of denial, lying to it's Citizens, pushing tax dollars to Big Pharma with little results, politicizing the virus, and asking it's Citizens to liberate their States. How did that work out in the video game ? "We don't have evidence but, we have lot's of theories." Americans Mayor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Pfizer got zero from US, the logical conclusion is they are not on my list of Guv-CV Phuck ups. Its a joke dude. I wanted to know what the outcome was if you played that way.

THEUniversityofNevada Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Thanks for the heads up EquineDisaster (aka @halfmanhalfbronco) I enjoyed killing off most humanity on a regular basis with the original Pandemic, Inc. I'm enjoying the feeling of raw authoritarian power I'm getting from the other side. For instance: Oh, there's 1 case of a disease on your continent? TOTAL LOCKDOWN... I haven't won a game yet.

I enjoy saving lives by invoking censorship and fake news and making it rain stimulus. I cant fet past fungus on normal. I can beat it on casual but only after 80 million dead or so.

With the spores shit like lockdowns and masks do not seem to work. If you find a winning strategy for normal or brutal let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
