------------- Introduction: ------------- The game starts you off as a survivor of a helicopter crash, during a time when hordes of zombies are a common thing to see. Listening to the radio, you hear that the last aircraft and boats will be leaving Union City in a matter of 40 days. Knowing that this is your one and only chance to reach freedom, you grab your gun and start walking.
--------- Glendale: --------- You start off in the small town of Glendale, fending off zombies in the tool store. After you finish your first wave of zombies, you are able to search the down for supplies and survivors. Start off by searching the Sheriff's Office, Church, Park Storage, and the building with the gun symbol on it.
Weapons: - .357 Revolver - Chainsaw
You can pretty much keep the chainsaw the whole game. It's great for when zombies get a little to close or bunched up together. On Day 4, you should be ready to move to your next town.
----------------- Whistler's Grove: ----------------- Moving onto Whistler's Grove, you barricade yourself in the basement of a house. Search the stores and the abandoned houses for supplies.
Weapons: - Compound Bow - Shotgun
A new weapon, the compound bow is introduced on this level. It has virtually no reload time and does substancial damage, making it a faily decent weapon. You also find the shotgun, but is better off being in the hands with one of the survivors in your posse.
---------- Claysburg: ---------- You now find yourself inside a church, using the pews as protection. In Claysburg, you have the Police Department, Gun Shop, and Gas Station to choose from for goodies.
Weapons: - Uzi - Ump 45
Searching the town, you will eventually find the Uzi. It's rapid fire rate makes it a deadly weapon. Equip it and head to the next town.
---------- Aspenwood: ---------- Out of breath, and in the middle of nowhere, you set up defenses in the barn of a farm town. Searching the Diner, Gas Station, and Sheriff's Office, you find more deadly weapons waiting to be fired at the heads of charging zombies.
Weapons: - Sawn-off Shotgun - Hunting Rifle
The Sawn-off Shotgun, even though being sawn-off, is still better in the hands of one of your survivors. The hunting rifle on the hand, is a one-shot kill weapon when pointed at the brain. Equip whatever you feel is necessary, and head off to the next city.
---------- Jonestown: ---------- Reaching Jonestown is a sign that Union City is not far away. Jonestown is a bit larger city, meaning more building to search. Grab your supplies from the Security Company, Police Station, and the local stores and get ready.
Weapons: - M4A1 - Hand Grenades - Ak-47
Hands Grenades are deadly to any zombie near them, but you cannot also depend on their accuracy. The M4A1 & Ak-47 are accurate, but with a slow reload time, the Uzi would still be the better choice. Moving on ...
---------- Fort Tran: ---------- Your last stop, Fort Tran. It has been overrun by zombies, but you manage to put together a wall of sandbags and prepare for the night.
Weapons: - M249 Minime - RPG
Here you get the fabled M249 Minime. Think of it as a big Uzi, with 200 bullets. Just equip it, mow down the last zombies in your way and head to Union City.
----------- Tips: ----------- - Keep an eye on your barricade health. Don't move ahead with your barricade almost destroyed. - Watch out for weapon zombies. If you don't kill them fast enough, they'll kill your survivor posse. - Don't switch weapons with low ammo. Try to keep your weapon fully loaded if its in the offhand slot. - The Chainsaw is your friend. You get it on the first level, and can keep it to the last. Utilize it.
theres a glitch in the game...if u keep dieing on any part try this once the zombies are about to eat u just pres the Esc button then the menu and the thing that says would you like to try again overlap.clik on try again. then when the game loads again the menue is up click resume and there are no zombies to fight just stand there and waite for morning to come. but dont try this alot after a while ur guys keep firing on invincible zombies and ur stuck at that night.
I have a few tips for this game. I am not a master at the game, but I have beaten the game a few times and I ted to use one strategy. The strategies I have depend on what kind of game you want to play. For the slow and fun type I recomend -The pistol -The Rifle -You can replace these weapons with a Shotgun, bow and arrow, and chainsaw
For the quick and "get it over with" type -Rifle -.357 Revolver
I personally prefer the pistol and chainsaw. The pistol is a great long ranged weapon, and you dont have to waste time finding it for obvious reasons. The chainsaw is a great backup in case your base is being raided by a pack of flesh hungry zombies. Hope this helps
I always prefered the shotgun. It's powerful, and you can reload whenever you want and fire while reloading. I also used the AK-47 and M249, but always kept the shotgun in reserve just in case. I found the grenades next to useless.
