Trick is to keep the disease as low profile as possible, while pumping its infectiousness, and hope you luck out with hitting areas like madagascar, which apparently has millions and millions of people living on it now. Once everything's infected, max out lethality :D

I played in the realistic mode. I don't know why you guys did so poorly but less then a billion people survived my holocost. Actually I completely wiped out every single region I infected. Unfortunately after about a billion deaths 3-4 regions closed down all the airports/seaports and managed to avoid infection entirely. Still

5.4 Billion dead
960 million survived.

I think it was when the infection went waterborn that too many people in localized areas got infected. that seems to be what tipped them off :-/. Still I think i did pretty well for my first try.

I did this, keeping the 'Visibility' at 0 but the second anyone notices it it's like the entire world shutdown their airports, shipyards and borders, so places like Japan never got infected. It did cause a lot of them not to do any of the quarentine measures til their entire population had been infected however...

yup, i figure you need to get a 'low' infection rate but across as many countries as possible. If a country gets super infected after your virus only being there for a day then you're likely to miss some out Confused

Start - Greenland
Type - Virus
Beginning Setup. Make sure you have Fever and ONLY fever. Let your Evolution points run up for a little while then max out your drug resistance, then put one point into heat and moisture so you have 1 in all 3 categories. Then just let it go on its own course. No transmission choice, nothing.

Max speed. After awhile, it will infect every single country without throwing up red flags and then youve build up some nice E-Points, so cash them in for a quick, killing blow!

My virus attempt faild, lots of countries had time to close everything.
My second time as a bacteria, i got rid of all the stuff that was visual. Upped resistance and leathality, and before you know it spread like wildfire. But unfortunaly as soon as i reached africa madagascar closed down, intresting bit was that greenland never closed it's ports or airports, despite the huge infection.

Figured out something interesting. If you make it airborne, airports will shut down quickly and prevent more infection from happening. Same for waterborne and ports, I think. Stick to insects and rodents until the whole planet is infected, and you don't even need to put points into airborne/waterborne.

Managascar is one tough place to get if you don't start there, all they have is a sea port. I tried no water or air and worked pretty well except nothing wanted to fly to Australia, Madagascar, or Japan and my disease even started in that corner.

Virus so far has been my best weapon. Bacteria just doesn't get enough points to become very effective in the long run.

The trick is definitely to try to infect the world with what appears to be a harmless desease before moving up to the more aggressive stuff. If you make too violent of a desease, the countries close down to prevent its spread.

Apparently, my Anubis strain was classified as a apoclyptic head popper.

Other then buying or selling eveoluton points to alter the killer you can not direct the disease in anyway correct? If a natural disaster happens it is only helps the killer if the area is concurrently infecting people in that area?

I think it's cause there's a higher populatiot there, so they close done quick where places like Greenland stay open despite the entire world being bright red Confused

not having ANY resistance except to drugs seems to keep the infection rates stable and slow enough to infect everywhere. then when the whole world is infected bump them all to 4 and watch the world change colour in a matter of seconds Razz

Im trying real hard in realistic mode to kill off all of earth, but I have to say it's rather tricky: even a disease without any symptoms, visibilty or lethality at all can be spotted...
Mostly a single small island keeps eluding my grasp, mostly its Madagascar. If you watch the traffic to that island, its clear why. It can ONLY be infected via ships afaik, and it has VERY VERY little ship traffic, compared to the other nations.

I think its definetly easiest to start there.

Also I'm not sure if the water/airborne thing does anything to make them close their harbors/airports any faster. I think, but im not sure, its just related to the visibility and the number of people infected all over the world. My theory when it comes to that is like this:
Once you start hitting other countries, lay low. Sell your symptoms, dont have any resists at hand. dont get extra transmissions (means you have to start the initial growth with symptoms you can sell later on, easily).

Because you want to maximize the chance of being spread out, but minimize growth in the countries that already have high infection ratios, so you dont alarm all the world.

Once the vaccine is getting developed or you have every country infected, its all out war and rapid mutation into a super-killer-virus.

I love this game Laughing

edit: the closing down of ports really being related to population infected all over the world kind of makes sense... if you buy increased trasnmissions like waterborne, you have a higher growth WITHIN nations, triggering the "international alarms" sooner.

edit2: also, i think somebody hacked their highscore page Laughing
