Training for the Zombie Pandemic
Posted May 30th, 2007 by rybolov
If you're new here and would like to see more of what I'm saying, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed (I can even email my blog posts to you when I publish a new one) or have a look at my papers and presentations page for downloads of stuff that you can share or "borrow heavily from". You also might find my guidelines for posting comments interesting, especially if you're a government employee. If you want to see me blog about anything in particular, drop me a private email on how you think I'm completely full of myself, extend me an invitation to speak at your next security meeting/event, or just to ship a huge bag of money in my direction, you can do that through my contact page. Thanks for visiting and happy hacking!
Why wait until the zombie outbreak to figure out what your response will be? Why not start training now?
Kevan Davis has written a very good web-based MMORPG called Urban Dead. I’ve been playing it for about 3 weeks now, although the game has been live for over 2 years.
What’s amazing to me is that the game has roughly 38K players and has a HUGE amount of user-created content on it’s wiki. In addition to that, each player group has their own forum that they maintain. That places the game squarely in the “cult” category. =) Try it, it’s lots of fun.
Skills you will need for the upcoming zombie pandemic:
- Barricade buildings to keep the zombies out
- Revive zombified buddies
- Heal your friends that have been bitten and infected with zombie mojo
- Kill the zombies that are in your well-barricaded building
- Dump the corpses outside so they don’t come back as undead inside your building
Inside the wiki, there are fantastic guides that tell you how to survive in the zombified streets of Malton. I recommend you read up on these and incorporate them into your zombie pandemic response plans.

Since you’re still on the zombies, I thought I’d pass another link to that game you posted. I knew I had seen a bigger one…and I found it!

Thanks for Urban Dead.
Now I have another pile of stuff to read over the weekend (UB wiki, here I come). My fresh character died at least once, will probably be zombified again just outside NT building.

Don’t groan, it attracts other hungry zombies.
