The survival game is set in the real world. Current day world, places, people, lives, weapons and technology. What this game is really based on is the movie Resident Evil Extinction.

Background Story for those who haven't seen the Movies

Resident Evil:

The film opens to a man loading the T-virus and cure into a case then tossing a glass tube containing a blue substance inside a lab. Minutes later the automated security system kills everyone in the facility through various means, ranging from drowning scientists who would have been some of the first people to be infected with the T-virus into a sealed lab to dropping an elevator full of people and decapitating a woman inside. This facility is called the Hive and it becomes the first place on earth to fall victim to the T-Virus.

R.S. Apocalypse:

On September 29, 2002, exactly thirteen hours after the T-Virus outbreak in The Hive, the Umbrella Corporation sends in a research team to re-open the complex. The team enters The Hive through a secret insertion point beneath Raccoon City. Shortly after entering the research facility, the entire team is then slaughtered by the T-Virus zombies that had been sealed within the complex. With the entrance now open, Umbrella realizes that the highly infectious zombies will make their way to the surface and begin a full-scale outbreak on Raccoon City. Some four hours later, much of Raccoon City lies in devastation after the outbreak.

R.S. Extinction info:

After the Raccoon City Incident in 2002, the T-Virus escaped containment despite the nuclear destruction of the city. Now spreading through the ground, the Umbrella Corporation was unable to contain it. The virus spread across the country, drying up the lakes, rivers, and continents while infecting the majority of the population. After five years, almost every living creature has become a zombie, and the world itself is on the verge of extinction. The Umbrella Corporation appears to be the only organized society of living humans left in the world, its remnants forced to live underground in Hive-like constructs dispersed all over the world.

=====================================

How this game will work:

Basically Rpers play as people striving to survive against all odds. This may be played in a Role Play style but it's essentially a game. To put it simply everyone will die, but it all depends on how long you last. There will be 10 rounds of this game and depending on how well you did during each match you'll get a rating for each round, then after the 10 rounds you'll get an average rating and a grade from A to F.

Rules:

1. You will die
2. You have to be 100% realistic to your character and the real world, no magic, so super human abilities, we are all normal people using what skills we chose for ourselves to try to survive.
eg. If you're a soldier you'll have better skill with firearms(better chance for hitting zombies in places that will affect them, aka. head shots) and tactics (more confident in a fight) or if you're a mechanic you'll be less skilled with guns (lower accuracy) but more so with machines. (repairing damaged cars)
3. You can't do crazy stuff like jumping out a third storey window without hurting yourself or shooting a handgun rapidly for 10 minutes. You have human limitations and ammunition limits for guns.
4. If someoneâ??s about to get chomped you can try to shoot the Zombie before it does that but you can't save someone from an injury if you're a kilometre away.
5. No miraculous finds! If you're looking around in a random house you won't find a 12 gauge assault shotgun.
6. No super quick actions, if you want to unlock a door with a zombie lunging at you from behind them you are scr#*ed. No repairing a car in five seconds. No super fast reloads and shooting if a zombie is standing in your pocket. You get the point.

=====================================

How you chose your person:

For the most part it's the same as normal

Name:
Age:
Gender:
Occupation: (what were you before the world succumbed to the Virus, note: as long as it's a real occupation you can be it, note: You could be anything from Scientist or Ex Swat team member to gardener or civilian)
Skill: (Something extra you want to add to your survival abilities)
Weapons: (Max = 3) (Depending on your occupation you can choose your starting weapon or weapons, anything from a gun to a golf club, if it's real and usable as a weapon then I don't care what it is, go whack some zombies with it!)
Equipment: (whatever tools or equipment you want to start with, should be occupation based)
Appearance:
Personality:
Other: (anything extra you want to mention if it wasn't covered above)

=====================================

Ways to score points towards your ranking:

It's not just kill try to every zombie you see before they take advantage of your lack of ammo. Team up and survive, work together because you can score points towards your final grading from almost anything. Some examples:

Creature Killing: bonuses for one bullet (instant headshot), creative, desperate, melee, assist (teaming up), rescue (stoping someone from dying), counter, etc. kills

Other creature killing: There are not just zombies; there are zombie dogs, crows and other carnivorous animals. Also Lickers and Hunters, the mutant experiments from Umbrella Corporation.

Finding rare objects: Powerful and hard to find weapons, equipment, vehicles, buildings etc.

Helping others: Saving someone, defending a position with someone, etc.

Repairing or constructing things: Buildings, barricades, vehicles, armour, weapons, be creative.

Amazing acts: Dodging near death experiences (within reason), completing a task just in time, skilled driving (jumps, drifting, etc.)

Healer: Depending on a personâ??s occupation their resistance to injury would be higher. If you find first aid items or some sort of cure to injuries and help people out or if you find a very rare antivirus tube you can gain bonuses. Not all injuries result in infection! Though, note: Any major wounds inflicted by undead will become infected. Also note: After two hours of infection you will become a zombie.

Being a good person: If you be selfless and give first aid items to those with greater need than your own, then you'd get bonuses. If you put your life on the line for others, or take a hit for someone you care about. Etc.

Die Hard: If your going down then take all the zombies around you, with you. Go out in a blaze of glory, spectacular deaths will earn better scores.

Play style: If you choose to be a solo survivor and can do that well you can get a better final grade than if you stick with a team. But it all depends on what things you do. It's harder to get higher scores if you are in a team of 3 or more.

=====================================

Night Time: When it is night, the more dangerous creatures come out to play and the weaker become greater threats. You canâ??t tell if something is out in the darkness and human limitations apply at night.

Creature details: Go to this Wikipedia link to find an extensive list of everything we'll be up against. Note: The stronger the creature the rarer and any of the creatures listed there that used to be people won't be in the survival game and also for the sake of everyone, Tyrants would be added either.

=====================================

I'm finally starting this Rp/Game, I hope everyone will enjoy it. I know there's more rules and guidelines, but it's necessary. People can post their profiles whenever and please read everything above, also refer back to it frequently if you need to.

Also for starting weapons try to keep them to a basic level, no gatling guns, rocket launchers, heavy automatics, packs of grenades, keep it simple, maybe an SMG of some kind, a side arm eg. handgun, a melee weapon.

=====================================

In the survival game we're in the United States and it's 2007, five years after the T-Virus began to infect the world. The same time when the movie Extinction takes place but we won't be seeing anyone from the movie.

Once everyone who wants to join has added their profiles I'll start a practise round. Also I'll have frequent updates for time of day, hour, players health stats and whos with who.

Btw: Micah140, is your guy running an assault rifle or a submachine gun? You say assault rifle, but that pic is most certainly a variant of the H&K MP5 submachinegun. It's even in the pic source (MP5A4). While well known for it's rifle-level accuracy, that weapon is actually a 9mm one, and has only a fraction of a rifle's range. Effective range is only 60-120m depending on variant, compared to 300m for even short-ranged assault rifles and carbines, with most full-sized weapons good to 400-550m. The MP5's 9mm round also has far inferior armor penetration, though better terminal ballistics.

And for you ShadowN1NJ4, pretty good overall rules, but there's just one technical issue I should point out:
While the basic gist of the rule is indeed appropriate, I can't help but mention that you actually can save someone from getting killed if you're over a kilometer away (even twice that), so long as you have the right equipment, skills, and conditions. The longest-ranged kill on record was 2430 meters (!) with a TAC-50 .50 cal rifle, and I know of several other confirmed kills beyond 1500m, along with 3 different sniping rounds that can retain excellent accuracy well beyond 1000m. Granted, that record was in extremely favorable conditions, and still took 3 shots, but consider that there are weapons with several times the accuracy of the TAC-50. Also, the #2 snipe wasn't that much closer (2286m), and was without those favorable conditions.
Now, I seriously doubt anyone's going to get into the right situation for such a feat, as the weapons that do this tend to be quite rare since neither the US military nor police forces really use the good ones (yet), so there'd just be a handful in private collections. Still, it's completely achievable and done quite frequently by military snipers around the world, as well as some police forces.

Cyg: Good to see you've posted a profile. Nice pic of Chris. Can't wait to see RE 5.

((I Like all the characters there pretty cool))

this looks pretty cool .. i'll reserve this place for later editing ^^

man... I'm so outdated since Code Veronica... what happened to RE4? can someone give me a short summary about that?

Cyg: I've finished RE4 twice, The president's daughter, Ashley gets kidnapped by this european cult named Las something (can't rememeber proper name) Leon's now a government operative and gets sent in to find her and bring her back. The cult trys everything in its power to stop you. You have back up from a number of new people, all of which die because that always happens in Resident evil games. Except Ada from RE2 who is Leon's Main backup. There's a paracite that is injected into Leon and Ashley which when fully grown takes control of it's host. The Cult leader wants to use an infected Ashley to take the Las Plagas (which is the paracite) to America when he returns her to her father. Basically you find her, stop the cults plan, kill the leader (Osmund Sadler) , get the Plagas out Leon's and Ashley's bodies and then take Ashley back home.

mowaiken: Good to have you on board ^^

((@95Elizabeth: Umm 95Elizabeth No offence but i don't think ShadowN1NJ4 will let you use that profile. How can a singer know how to use bombs and guns and if there is a reason you should state it in other. Equipment is what other things you are takening with you that isn't a weapon. Guys if your wondering why i know this stuff it is because me and ShadowN1NJ4 are friends on msn and have chated about this rp for some time!

@ mowaiken: I really like your profile it shows that normal people can fight agianst Zombies too))

Mowaiken: I agree with Micah, nice profile

Amaya: Micah is right. No offense but if you want to join you need to read the rules and the background info.

Everyone: Sorry I'm taking so long to get this show on the road, this weekend I got busy so I will start tomorow. Before the actual rounds there'll be a practise round.

((..... Fine... Is gunsman allowed? ))

(( there's one question i wanted to ask monty about pistols , let say the normal range for a pistol gun is like .... 500 meter for an example , what if i fire at a target in a range of 4000 meter ? Despite calculating accuracy , will the power of the bullet still be able to penetrate one's head after travelling more than it could travel ?

condition : bullet travel in arc , wind resistance and gravity force calculated , the bullet will end up on the forehead of the target , ignore power increament that brought up by gravity force when bullet was travelling downward , normal pistol bullet , skull of an adult , NORMAL HUMAN SKULL that's of course , bullet will not spin , bullet type .... don't know =.=lll 9mm perharps ? .......... that's all ...

i've thought of a situation like this before and it keeps bugging me , will the bullet still obtain the power of penetration after travelling a distance longer than it could ; or will it just stop and bounce before target's forehead like he got hit by a small rock ..... i don't know =.=llll ............

by the way ... thx for the compliments =v=b ))

Okay, this is something of a mute point as it's highly unlikely that a bullet will ever get a chance to go it's true maximum range. However, if you really want to know:

Most bullets, even at their maximum ranges, will still have several times the velocity of say, an arrow shot by a long bow. For a normal human, they will still most likely penetrate, even well beyond the technical maximum range.
As for your scenario, it kind of fails with how it's described. The bullet can't be fired in an arc without gravity, and the gravity is an integral factor in calculating the bullet's velocity. Incidentally, the only way for range to be extended is to have the firing position at a higher elevation than the target, in which case, the round will have greater impact velocity. But, all things considered, if you ONLY factor in friction, the bullet should still retain more than enough power to penetrate. I'm not a physics major, but I believe it should.
Now, if you want 10 times the true maximum range, that's another story entirely, but a few hundred meters beyond it, I could see.

The actual distance at which a bullet can be fired is based on a whole slew of variables (the round, the gun, climate, altitude, bullet design, etc), but if you want ranges, here's a few I've picked up:
9x19mm Parabellum: 2300m
.45 ACP: 1700m
.44 Magnum: 2375m
.30-06 Springfield: 5200m
5.56x45mm NATO (.223 Remington): 3600m
7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester): 3800m
12.7x99mm NATO (.50 BMG): 6800m

Just don't expect to hit things at even a fraction of these ranges.

wow ! talk about information storage , you sure knows a lot of stuff about thiese lol =.=b you've gain my respect =v=V that .... made my day =v=b

Woah, Monty, ^^ you've gained my respect in this subject to

Elizebeth: Gomen but please read the profile details and acording to that make your profile. I'm gona be strict but it's necessary.
