That was terrifying, the seemingly endless wave of zombies just pouring down the hall, taking multiple people constantly shooting just to slow its advance.
Thats the thing: it did not stop. The multiple machineguns, shotguns, wielded by long time survivors with good aim and reload skills, sending lead down range could only slow the horde down. There were so many of those carriers that they acted as shields to the advance.
@@Lithuanian_NAFO_lad I wish they had a mod that piles up the bodies making the others on the horde get a chance to trip. All those bodies must have stacked on top of each other.
@@blacklight1104 no, then we would end up with a "Train to Busan" type horde. Cramped space (train carriage, hallway, not that different) and high numbers would be horrific. But not a bad idea. They could make that into a mod. Forcing you to fight outside or strategize well against the wall of flesh with an appetite of a wood chipper on crack.
@@Lithuanian_NAFO_lad I know. Combine that with the mod that lets "slain" zomboids pretend they are dead will make navigating corpse infested hallways a nightmare to walk into.
This is why I'm certain that in Project Zomboid, humanity will eventually end the zombie apocalypse - especially as whoever survives will carry the "immune to airborne virus" gene.
@@randomintrovertedspider7510 Imagine they add a mod where they change all the zombies into the cordyceps or the necromorphs, goddamm that would be interesting and much more hella scary
@@randomintrovertedspider7510Honestly, in most zombie stories the actual threat is the pathogen. Zombies are just bargain bin human wave tactics from medieval times. Which fail miserably in the face of automatic weapons and artillery.
@@CandleWisp Fails against medieval tactics as well. A spear wall is quite effective at stopping a wave of men. And yeah, the pathogen is typically the threat which drives the story, however, a disease that only spreads via bite isn't that dangerous (In fact, rabies is explicitly not considered dangerous due to that), hence why being immune to the airborne variant would allow humanity to rebuild.
@@CandleWisp it's that and social collapse. We saw how disorganized and panicked people got when COVID hit with them fighting over toilet paper and hand sanitizer for some reason. Zombies would cause people to freak out, and the resulting panic systems collapse would cause far more harm than the zombies alone could. The book World War Z was very good at showing this. If people had responded calmly and effectively to the outbreak, instead of governments bullshitting the public, people panicking then becoming violently selfish, and the comfort of the rich being valued over human lives, then the outbreak would have been quite minor.
This seems like a scene from a realistic zombie movie. The way you seamlessly communicate, and stay focused and stable even though you're clearly getting anxious and panicked about the growing horde, is how soldiers actually operate.
how the situation changed from “let's shoot some zombies” to “let's get out of here”. and then the tense silence in front of the hospital. better script than most zombie movies!
I appreciate the compliment, it was fun recording this video, and on the same note, I wanted to portray what it’s like with the military being competent against a zombie apocalypse. Anytime a movie or game portrays them, they either can’t shoot, or are very disorganized.
@@Nerdy_Vet Are you.. are you kidding? This was hardly realistic or tactically competent.

The one creepy thing about hospitals in the zombie apocalypse is the does mostly filled of the zombies and it’s really rare to actually find a hospital filled with survivors
Pretty much, the only time that it can be habitable is if they were prepare during the apocalypse. But even so, there’s going to still be a handful of quarantined section.

Hey some advice that’s saved me a fair few times: if you press Alt while aiming a weapon, it changes to lock onto ground zombies instead of standing zombies. You can use that to immediately deal with crawlers without being forced to fall back from one zombie.
Going there is always a nightmare without proper planning, going alone is a suicide run. But with a team, your chances depends on you and your teammates work.
Even though this video was posted a year ago and this is my first time viewing it I am so very, very impressed with the CQB tactics, fire discipline, movement fire, retrograde withdrawal and good communications amongst the fire team. @nerdy_vet, you and your friends rock! And get to the chopper and exfil!
I was thinking extract earlier than you guys did -- but I'm glad you were sensible and did the proper move. Once the horde starts coming, it's time to leave. Fun video.
I noticed you guys were reacting to the situation with an oddly disciplined attitude. Then I saw your username and I realized, "yeah that explains it." IRL military would absolutely destroy zombies, especially since they're so ubiquitous in the public conscious that everyone knows how to deal with them.
"Everyone knows how to deal with them", except no. Unless you are currently, within moments capable of ending your families life because they suddenly got very violent due to unknown reasons, and can continue to fight and kill people because they appear to be infected and wanting you dead. I do not believe most people will handle the situation easily all because they watched fictitious shows and movies. No one is going to immediately believe there are zombies going around, and the first people to actually witness zombie attacks will be so preoccupied with saving themselves they may not alert others to the danger. (And good luck putting on the internet or wherever you can, "zombies are real and killing people downtown, get out of town quicky".) We can all think what we want, but the moment you see one person rip anothers throat out in front of you, you will not know what the fuck is going on. Are they on drugs? Is this person just crazy? By the time you even think, "zombie", you might be in the clutches of one and it's too late.
@@mycocodog47 I can see it playing out that way. You are right people wouldn’t believe it at first, then once they realize “This is the Zombie apocalypse” there will just be mass panic. Being a Prepper, I have go bags as well as supplies. Only thing I would worry about is my kids, too young to understand and too young to defend themselves.
@@Nerdy_Vet Depends on What "Kind" of Zombie we talking about Normal zombie ( Walking Dead) is basically winnable with very few casualty but lots of infection s Mutated zombies ( L4D) will just kill "Civilians" regardless if their armed or not with little resistance Special Zombies ( Resident Evil) will obliterate The US army even with all the Techs they have unless they Used Nukes
I wanted to say Thank you for the comments and the likes on this video. I’ve been so inundated with work, new baby, and a new house. It’s been awhile since I’ve sat down and read the comments. It has given me the biggest smile. I will do my best to put out more content.
@@deepdungeon8465 no we definitely did not, we had been in Red Stone for a minute and just resupplied with the Armory in the Admin building across the street. We fought the horde for a bit to see if it was something that was winnable, but as the fight drug on, we saw it as more of a loss and pulled back. No reason to stay there and waste more ammo.
@@deepdungeon8465 thanks, still new to this whole thing, so I’ve been working on spending some time editing, we have a wipe event happening soon, so I hope you enjoy those videos
Going to try lol, just had me a new baby so I can mainly do recording, just in case I have to leave. But when I do, I'll try to stream on here or twitch.
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 many zombie stories (like project zomboid) have the virus airborne at first. In zomboid it was airborne and everyone except a few who were immune to the airborne variant got infected. The immune are only affected by direct blood from a zombie inside their body. And tbh that's the only way a zombie apocalypse could happen.
@@thelegacyofgaming2928I think the only reason the army could fail to contain the zombies is that the virus is highly contagious and airborne, plus poor organization could lead to infecting the soldiers.
I love the callouts. IRL operators would have to continuously switch fire and would utilize choke points if there were a zombie apocalypse. Overall great teamwork and hope to play with my friends some more like this.
0:50 “CRAWLER, CRAWLER, SOMEBODY STOMP IT!!” Idk why that took me out, but it did 😂😂. Everyone else is just cool and collected, then you have Private Hudson.
It's what makes this game so much more menacing. A hallway with nothing but a dark void not understanding what can be down there. Just to get surprised by an unimaginable sized horde.
the reveal of the horde felt like something out of the movie. the way it starts with just a few zombies running out from the hallway. they kept coming out, sure, but it was nothing to worry about. but then y'all reared the corner, and the full scale of the horde was revealed.
The narrow hospital hallway acted like a chokepoint so that squad was doing some massive damage to that hord while they were tactically withdrawing from the hospital. The 300 Spartans would be proud of this lol!
This is the kind of control and readiness I expect out of a vet in this situation, course this was after the initial infection panic and the survivors are all that's left. I assume on an outpost where the virus can hide in plain sight before the apocalypse can wipe out a military base in the panic if it's not controlled quickly.
this is why i love playing vet, feels so satisfying with friends when their characters panic and freak out while mine is like "I feel peckish and moist" while fighting hored flooding out of a building lol
@@Nerdy_Vet Yeah, I threw a thermite grenade in, fired a couple shots, and had to book it, feeling as if I'd made a mistake. The burned down hospital told me otherwise.
Draw all the zombies to you with a ton of noise. Draw them outside. Have car ready and waiting, toss a firebomb, get in car and drive in circles until they are all dead. Profit. This is how I do every single big horde in this game. Works like a charm as long as you do not get cocky.
Napalming the location to the ground is also one of my emergency strat. But I try to think twice before doing (especially if there are other buildings around). Last time I didn't double checked, the Mall went in ashes x)
just a tip, you can setting ctrl key with targeting crawling target, it is very useful for targeting zombie crawler especially if you are using ranged weapon.
@@Nerdy_Vet I keep a revolver handy just for this purpose, really handy in fence fighting, that and the 38 revolver is actually the quietest gun in the game, only pulling zomboids from slightly longer than shouting distance
Idk what's more impressive the fact that they are are armed to the teeth and in Louisville in only the first winter and just this much coordinated WITH sprinters mixed into the horde Or the fact that the gun hitchance is so high
Yeah but still, they had to fall back, and ran out of ammo. The same would happen to normal soldiers, and which point they would have to resupply, which would get harder and harder. Logistics are almost completely gone in an apocalypse, and the military runs on logistics.
@@sangun123 if you have not purchased the game yet I would check more videos as shooting usually gets you in a lot of trouble (seen here but managed easily with 5 guns pointed down the hallway). This is one of the best games I've ever played and I love it, but if youre looking for a shooter in this way it may not scratch your itch. Then again you can sandbox the settings so that it does scratch that itch easily 😂 idk just trying to give you a realistic idea
@@jayquoproductions Since you wanna be the guy who has to correct others... This isnt a third person shooter either, tps is over the shoulder, this is top down shooter...
I think this is probably my favourite PZ video on UA-cam, to be honest. It's a perfect example of what a group of people with good teamwork and end-game gear are capable of, but everyone struggles so much to reach this point that it's almost a fantasy for most players.
It's a good game. Was actually really good way back in early beta, and the slow addition of features and polish has really helped it shine. I've only ever done singleplay / coop with one other player but it's fun. Honestly I don't really get the appeal of a big squad with guns and going in loud, because being forced to go quiet, think everything out and be smart (or die horribly) is where the fun has always been for me.

I noticed you guys were reacting to the situation with an oddly disciplined attitude. Then I saw your username and I realized, "yeah that explains it." IRL military would absolutely destroy zombies, especially since they're so ubiquitous in the public conscious that everyone knows how to deal with them.
Yea I grew up watching Zombie movies and they always portray the military as incompetent and I wanted to change that.
Nope, they are not
"Everyone knows how to deal with them", except no. Unless you are currently, within moments capable of ending your families life because they suddenly got very violent due to unknown reasons, and can continue to fight and kill people because they appear to be infected and wanting you dead. I do not believe most people will handle the situation easily all because they watched fictitious shows and movies. No one is going to immediately believe there are zombies going around, and the first people to actually witness zombie attacks will be so preoccupied with saving themselves they may not alert others to the danger. (And good luck putting on the internet or wherever you can, "zombies are real and killing people downtown, get out of town quicky".) We can all think what we want, but the moment you see one person rip anothers throat out in front of you, you will not know what the fuck is going on. Are they on drugs? Is this person just crazy? By the time you even think, "zombie", you might be in the clutches of one and it's too late.
@@mycocodog47 I can see it playing out that way. You are right people wouldn’t believe it at first, then once they realize “This is the Zombie apocalypse” there will just be mass panic. Being a Prepper, I have go bags as well as supplies. Only thing I would worry about is my kids, too young to understand and too young to defend themselves.
@@Nerdy_Vet Depends on What "Kind" of Zombie we talking about
Normal zombie ( Walking Dead) is basically winnable with very few casualty but lots of infection s
Mutated zombies ( L4D) will just kill "Civilians" regardless if their armed or not with little resistance
Special Zombies ( Resident Evil) will obliterate The US army even with all the Techs they have unless they Used Nukes
The cooperation and team work is absolutely amazing!
I wanted to say Thank you for the comments and the likes on this video. I’ve been so inundated with work, new baby, and a new house. It’s been awhile since I’ve sat down and read the comments. It has given me the biggest smile. I will do my best to put out more content.
This vid was cool. I hope my homie is getting back to that game soon and we can get some coop started it looks so nice!
Greetings from Germany
@@whoknows8223 feel free to join my server, people are mainly waiting for b42
One of my favorite things has to be watching vets play games like this. Just, mwah! Chef’s kiss! That was amazing!
The fact that this isn't an RP and they're just communicating so well in combat it sounds like Military larp says something, IDK what though.
I love how they communicated like a squad
I died here once on the second floor staires, the stairs leading to corners are really really dangerous
They are, the time after this where we came back to clear, I died running down the stairs and not paying attention
@@Nerdy_Vet did you completely cleared the entire Building man?
@@deepdungeon8465 no we definitely did not, we had been in Red Stone for a minute and just resupplied with the Armory in the Admin building across the street. We fought the horde for a bit to see if it was something that was winnable, but as the fight drug on, we saw it as more of a loss and pulled back. No reason to stay there and waste more ammo.
@@Nerdy_Vet good to hear it man, I'll start binge watching your videos tomorrow.
@@deepdungeon8465 thanks, still new to this whole thing, so I’ve been working on spending some time editing, we have a wipe event happening soon, so I hope you enjoy those videos
The zombies showing up one at a time then quickly increasing in numbers is straight out of a movie
I got a little nervous when that last guy didn't exit the building right away
Do you guys stream anywhere? I love the story and chemistry in this video, I’d love to see more!
Yep I recently just started. Twitch.tv/nerdyvet
@@Nerdy_Vet seems like you stopped right after
@@Nerdy_Vet just followed on twitch. I love the comms and gameplay so I'm looking forward to more!
@@orishina8169 Thank You :)
Going to try lol, just had me a new baby so I can mainly do recording, just in case I have to leave. But when I do, I'll try to stream on here or twitch.
This clip is what got me to buy this game late last year. I just hit 400 hours played yesterday.
Keep it up! We have someone with 5000 hours in Zomboid in our discord.
This is when you wish you had a grenade launcher with a few rounds.
The way you guys said "Back up" seems soooooo real. I was so immersed.
Honestly pretty impressive coordination. This seems like how things would actually go with the military and zombies.
A zombie apocalypse wouldn't even be able to happen. 8-10 guys could easily clear this hospital irl. The movies just like being dramatic
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 many zombie stories (like project zomboid) have the virus airborne at first. In zomboid it was airborne and everyone except a few who were immune to the airborne variant got infected. The immune are only affected by direct blood from a zombie inside their body. And tbh that's the only way a zombie apocalypse could happen.
@@thelegacyofgaming2928I think the only reason the army could fail to contain the zombies is that the virus is highly contagious and airborne, plus poor organization could lead to infecting the soldiers.
@@R4in46yeah. The zombies won’t be the problem, the only actual threat to the military comes from the virus itself and the way/ways it can spread
I love the callouts. IRL operators would have to continuously switch fire and would utilize choke points if there were a zombie apocalypse. Overall great teamwork and hope to play with my friends some more like this.
Ah yes, the video of a random zombies I’m game that showed up on my home page randomly and that I am now occasionally fixated on.
Feels like a average l4d2 experience, excellent job to not get infected.
If they had Molotovs or nades, the horde would be way faster to kill
0:50 “CRAWLER, CRAWLER, SOMEBODY STOMP IT!!” Idk why that took me out, but it did 😂😂. Everyone else is just cool and collected, then you have Private Hudson.
when the military in a zombie movie can actually shoot straight and has situational awareness
I've never seen this game get more interesting as long as I play it. man, you play like a realistic movie
It's because you're not using trajectory mods that make the game super easy like this guy.
Inb4 "muh sandbox bro I can cheat if ah want"
It's what makes this game so much more menacing. A hallway with nothing but a dark void not understanding what can be down there. Just to get surprised by an unimaginable sized horde.
I love watching full strings where people like this Just get together and cooperate.
you make the game look so fun. when i play i just run around like an idiot till i die naked and afraid.
That escalated quickly. Good communication and team work.
In all honesty it makes sense that the most zombies in an Zombie Virus infected world would reside in hospitals.
True cause the cases start popping up and almost all of them would be sent to the hospital but if the hospitals weren't prepared it's wraps
the reveal of the horde felt like something out of the movie. the way it starts with just a few zombies running out from the hallway. they kept coming out, sure, but it was nothing to worry about.
but then y'all reared the corner, and the full scale of the horde was revealed.
1:26 bro pulling a thermophylae 300💀
The narrow hospital hallway acted like a chokepoint so that squad was doing some massive damage to that hord while they were tactically withdrawing from the hospital. The 300 Spartans would be proud of this lol!
This is the kind of control and readiness I expect out of a vet in this situation, course this was after the initial infection panic and the survivors are all that's left. I assume on an outpost where the virus can hide in plain sight before the apocalypse can wipe out a military base in the panic if it's not controlled quickly.
I'm glad this Indie game came from British and Canadian developers and giving some representation to Kentucky.
this is why i love playing vet, feels so satisfying with friends when their characters panic and freak out while mine is like "I feel peckish and moist" while fighting hored flooding out of a building lol
Lmao 🤣
When such a simple mistake can turn into an absolutely catastrophic event. Then snatched back with coordination. Excellent.
I love how you guys are so calm. If that was me, I'll definitely panic and scream 😂
I love that 6 sec pause after the first kill.....then they come running around the corner!
I handled this with my veteran character alone by burning down the hospital. ._.
Good on you for good coordination.
Definitely should have considered a Molotov but I have fire spread turned off. Two server wipes because of fire spread so
@@Nerdy_Vet Yeah, I threw a thermite grenade in, fired a couple shots, and had to book it, feeling as if I'd made a mistake.
The burned down hospital told me otherwise.
Draw all the zombies to you with a ton of noise. Draw them outside. Have car ready and waiting, toss a firebomb, get in car and drive in circles until they are all dead. Profit. This is how I do every single big horde in this game. Works like a charm as long as you do not get cocky.
Just make sure to draw them far enough away from the building to a parking lot.
Napalming the location to the ground is also one of my emergency strat. But I try to think twice before doing (especially if there are other buildings around). Last time I didn't double checked, the Mall went in ashes x)
just a tip, you can setting ctrl key with targeting crawling target, it is very useful for targeting zombie crawler especially if you are using ranged weapon.
Yea we learned that afterwards lol
@@Nerdy_Vet I keep a revolver handy just for this purpose, really handy in fence fighting, that and the 38 revolver is actually the quietest gun in the game, only pulling zomboids from slightly longer than shouting distance
Idk what's more impressive the fact that they are are armed to the teeth and in Louisville in only the first winter and just this much coordinated WITH sprinters mixed into the horde
Or the fact that the gun hitchance is so high
The sound and the crows after leaving. Its almost. Hauntingly beautiful
Damn, you guys communicating tactically, you guys actually felt like well-trained military on a mission to wipe the zombie out
They are. They're military vet gamers.
They really showed you guys NO MERCY ya know?
The overnight janitor is gonna be pissed when they clock in for their shift tonight...
😂😂😂
*"FETCH ME THEIR SOULS!!!"*
-The zombies most likely.
I like how calm the players sounded. This is what a really organized military would deal with zombies. That’s all I’m saying.
Yeah but still, they had to fall back, and ran out of ammo. The same would happen to normal soldiers, and which point they would have to resupply, which would get harder and harder. Logistics are almost completely gone in an apocalypse, and the military runs on logistics.
*You got a new subscriber!*
Nice teamplay. Strong communication and cooperation.
Thanks for subbing
its insane how you can have 5 fully loaded people with military grade weaponry and its still not enough to clear one building
all the tech in the world doesn't help when the ammo runs out.
Or when the enemy just doesn't care about casualties or their own survival
this game looks sick, tbh im not a big fan of FPS's but i love this sort of top down tactical approach
I’m too old and too slow for FPS’s lol getting trick shotted by a kid, 3 times younger than me, isn’t something on my bucket list 😅
@@jayquoproductions i know, i was saying as someone who likes shooter but not fps's this almost more rts view is preferable
@@sangun123 if you have not purchased the game yet I would check more videos as shooting usually gets you in a lot of trouble (seen here but managed easily with 5 guns pointed down the hallway). This is one of the best games I've ever played and I love it, but if youre looking for a shooter in this way it may not scratch your itch. Then again you can sandbox the settings so that it does scratch that itch easily 😂 idk just trying to give you a realistic idea
@@jayquoproductions Since you wanna be the guy who has to correct others... This isnt a third person shooter either, tps is over the shoulder, this is top down shooter...
@@jayquoproductions you are also wrong because this isn’t a third person
"Get to the chopper!"
Hah, he means gtfo of there, and is using an iconic movie line to convay that order. Fun!
*LItterally has a helicopter*
..Oh
Lmfao
That was intense. Could feel the greed fighting with the realities. Glad you could share.
this is the video that got me into Project Zomboid lmao. Crazy.
@zudn?
A hospital is the last place I'd go to in a zombie apocalypse
Beautiful ordered retreat, followed by trying to locate the helicopter like you lost you forgot where you parked at walmart 😂
Honestly, that m240b alone could realistically clear that whole hallway
LMAo holy shit 😂🤣 It's like a goddamn texan turkey shoot. 😂🤣
was that Travis Kelce crawling around at 2:21 ?
I thought it was pretty cool how everyone managed to stick together and escape out the Hospital!
when the game isnt able to punish you enough to make you loose but you manage to come out alive anyways.
I think this is probably my favourite PZ video on UA-cam, to be honest. It's a perfect example of what a group of people with good teamwork and end-game gear are capable of, but everyone struggles so much to reach this point that it's almost a fantasy for most players.
The shit that was going down at the hospital while Rick was snoozing:
man this is the kinda stuff that makes me wanna buy this game
Do it
Whats the game?
@@lucifer616161 Project Zomboid if I'm not mistaken
@@andrascottier595 cheers
It's a good game. Was actually really good way back in early beta, and the slow addition of features and polish has really helped it shine. I've only ever done singleplay / coop with one other player but it's fun. Honestly I don't really get the appeal of a big squad with guns and going in loud, because being forced to go quiet, think everything out and be smart (or die horribly) is where the fun has always been for me.
