Fear The Walking Dead - Horde

[@bioshockfan1]

Wouldn't do much considering the surrounding zombies would just eat the shrapnel. One grenade might take out like 4 or 5 max, if that.

[@jiado6893]

I can see how that many zombies could push down a chain link fence and kill everyone. What I think is silly is how that huge crowd was stumbling and groaning towards the base, and the sentries didn't hear them until the first ones walked right in front of them.

[@Cayden1988]

I know right. The position of that scissor lift was dreadful.

[@meurum2561]

Jacob Bielski maybe in the walking dead the noise walkers make isn't actually that loud🤔 like perhaps it's that loud for the show but anything else maybe not.

[@jiado6893]

That's an interesting idea. It still seems like that many footsteps would be audible though.

[@euno17]

You know why? Because the plot called for it. realistically, given the situation, the Military would have had scouts along roof-tops with different vantage points. See the problem is, as I mentioned to other people, if in the script you allow the Military to adapt, it makes it that much more challenging to argue that they were taken down. If you make them act in-component and severely ineffective (firing from the hip, not using heavy weapons, no firing line, no weapon discipline) you can show why they were over-run so easily.
otherwise the show doesn't exist.

[@samg8939]

[@unebaguette2497]

jeamus Daryl didn't blow up an m1 Abrams, it was a m48 Patton I believe, if not ,it definitely wasn't an Abrams it's a Cold War American tank

[@kurf4122]

+Tekarukuto ninja A bloody Great War tank could plow through those zombies. They're decomposing bodies, they have no substance whatsoever. Take a German Tiger from the 1940's for instance: It weighs almost 60 tonnes and moves at 40 km/h, something that heavy moving at that speed hitting all that flesh would send those walkers flying like ragdolls, and the Tiger would probably only bump its speed down by a km/h.
Now take an Abrams tank, something that the Americans WOULD have in this situation. It weighs 10 tonnes more and travels even faster at 72 km/h (!!!). Try telling me that a tank in the 21st Century wouldn't turn those walkers into mashed potatoes when a tank from over 70 years ago could.

[@joshuateoh8966]

WTF, firing that many rounds should have dropped more zombies, their firing from an angle where heads are easily shot at.

[@ufosubject6494]

+Niall Hagan that is literally no excuse for firing 500 rounds and killing 20 zombies at most. Rick, Shane and their co-workers managed to hit those escaped criminals with point blank accuracy at a distance of at least 10 feet on Days Gone Bye, and they were some random sherrifs who took care of a city nobody knew. We're talking about the freaking military.

[@LarryDaLobstah]

Niall Hagan they knew enough to shoot them in the heads

[@ufosubject6494]

So heavily armed soldiers with presumably 1-2 months of training according to official sources can't defeat a horde of about 2,000 zombies(this is the official number for this horde) but Rick and his friends with no guns whatsoever(the only one who had a gun in that episode was Abraham, everyone else was armed with machetes) can defeat a much larger horde? lel
This base wasn't under-staffed, nor under-armed. We can see dozens of soldiers around, some with humvees and even helicopters. There is no excuse for incompetence of this magnitude except terribad writing.

[@ufosubject6494]

First of all, we can because unless those soldiers were trained to have at the very least an ACCEPTABLE aim, the goverment wouldn't be retarded enough to dump them in a overrun city.
Second, as i said above, stop repeating that, because that's not even CLOSE to being an excuse for how awfully incompetent those soldiers were. We clearly see dozens of soldiers running around, with some of them being inside humvees and helicopters. So even if they lost half of their numbers and half their ammo, they still had more than enough to wipe out that horde with relative ease. Do you know how many bullets and projectiles are produced to the military per day? Even if they only produced 1% as much as they actually do, they would still have enough to fight an entire war with leftovers
Third, the soldiers here had FAR, FAAR more weapons and ammo than the people on Alexandria. Rick had to scavenge his weapons, the soldiers had the guns handed to them every day due to ammo production.
Fourth, when Rick's Group kills that horde, they're barely 2 years into the outbreak. Fifth, 99% of the members of his group were armed with MACHETES when they killed that horde with 3,000-4,000 walkers, with the only exception being Abraham and his only role in the entire fight is gunning down a few zombies to save Glenn once, after that he barely participates. As i said above, the soldiers here had so much more ammo and weapons that it's not even fun to compare them
Fifth, the soldiers FAR outnumbered Rick's Group. According to the Comic Series, about 60 people lived in Alexandria when Rick found it. However, only around 20 of those inhabitants are actually active FIGHTERS(Season 7's finale implies it is even less than that, since the combined fighters of Alexandria, Hilltop AND The Kingdom are numbered at only 50 people.), the other residents are pacific. So only a dozen or so people fought against that horde. We know for a fact there were far more than a dozen soldiers protecting that base on Fear The Walking Dead, even with half of their numbers leaving in the previous episode.
So, no matter how you cut it, there is no excuse for the stormtrooper-like aim and the incredible lack of competence seen on Fear The Walking Dead, other than bad, really bad writing.

[@ufosubject6494]

That literally doesn't debunk anything of my text. First you tell me that the government needs all help they can get, then you contradict yourself by saying they consider all of those soldiers expendable, lel. The base was targeted for demolition, but the soldiers would probably be reallocated to Edwards Air Force Base just like the others. It doesn't imply they're expendable at all.
I'll repeat what i said, since you ignored it completely. "A ton" of soldiers fleeing with "A ton" of weapons, doesn't MATTER, because they still had more than enough numbers and ammo to defeat that herd. I'll repeat; even if the military produced only 1% as much ammo as they actually did, they would still have enough to fight entire wars with some leftover.
No, it didn't take 5 years to get to the Alexandria segment. That's in the Comic Series, in the TV Series it only took 2 years, since Carl is 12 on Season 1 and on Season 5 he's just turned 14. FTWD is a spin-off to the TV Series, so we're using TV info here.
It being the early part of the outbreak is effectively pointless, since the World Health Organization already knew pretty much everything about the zombies as soon as the outbreak began. By the time the soldiers encounter that herd, they know everything they need to. Actually, they would be the first people to know other than the president and the governors.
Nope, you're pointing out information i've already debunked in my comment above and ignoring my explanations even though they're valid.

[@intr0vertig0]

Zombies are dead flesh. Clumped together tightly like that, that LMG should have mowed them down. Its shit like this that just takes me out of the show. When I see two dudes firing automatic rifles into a crowd and see no zombies dropping, it just gets rid of the suspension of disbelief.

[@lordunconfirmed3861]

If this was real life, the army would've taken out these zombies in ten minutes. Actually, if this was real life, maybe 500 people tops would've turned into zombies.

[@lordunconfirmed3861]

The virus wouldn't be everywhere at once in real life, and the government would be competent and quarantine the source of the outbreak as soon as possible, which means that maybe a few thousand people would've turned at most. If smallpox can be erradicated, the zombie virus can, too.
Also, taking the quarantine into account, the zombies would decay completely in a matter of weeks, maybe a month and a half if we're generous, not only because maggots would view them as delicious and easy preys, but also because of the heat of the Sun, which would speed up the process A LOT

[@MikMoen]

*engage armchair general mode*
A perimeter of heavy machine guns with overarching lines of fire would be more than a perfect defense against slow moving targets, even if there was a horde of them surrounding you. Do you even realize what rapid fire from large caliber rounds would do to flesh? No need for headshots those zombies would be ripped apart.

[@TheKelmap]

In my personal opinion setting up in that position was moronic in the first place; It was a while since I watched that episode but if I remember correctly the facility was a hospital of sorts that held prisoners, sick who may die and turn and various military units; But its position was far to big and its been shown time and time again that walkers in large hoards can easily take out chain-fences, They should have chosen likely a industrial or similar location with sterner walls and a more securable perimeter.
They should have then made a makeshift wall outside but with each side having a opening that is small; This will mean that walkers rather then attempting to take down the wall will rather attempt to get through the smaller opening and be mowed down easily.
The military was operating on smaller resources here so its pretty moronic that there first idea to set up a base that is largely open, Hard to defend and would require more resources to set up.
Infact the military did the same mistake in the show at Safe Zone India (a neighbor hood taken over by the military for a civilian population) rather then securing a more strategically viable area they rather focused there efforts on neighbor hood; Sure its more comfortable and specifically designed for that but they used chain fences everywhere when they should have evac'd citizens to a more secure position; Like a zoo which in most cases already has strong metal and sometimes concrete walls and could be easily turned into a civilian area; I'd imagine the military could go and get small vans or trailers and set them up for residence in the area; Along with the fact that you would have on the sight prison areas and medical positions and with most zoos usually being centered out into linear walkways they could make multiple fallback zones for a situation like this.

[@donkochonaromius7982]

Thats why i disliked TWD and this Show.The main characters kill walkers by the hundrets and often only using a baseballbat or other meele weapons.Yet the U.S. Army ,that has tanks,jets and heavy weapons cant do shit about the zombies.
Thats why i like the "zombies" in the 28 days/weeks films.they are fast as fuck and infect you in an instant

[@euno17]

The military needs to always be a seriously dumb-ed down version because in situations like the video, one decently placed machine gun turret would have mowed them down. Not to mention a firing line for support. It just doesn't make any sense.
I don't care how many there are in this scene. They are moving so slow and the military base should easily be able to get into position and fortify/kill off the group.
And what kind of insanely ignorant military group (even newbies) would think that having ONE lookout tower with limited sight-range to the point that all they can see is what is right in front of them would be a good idea. And NO one heard the Zombies till they were literally feet from the front gate?

[@24Kev]

Thats what im saying. Imagine a 28 Days Later show on HBO 😱

[@justaman9957]

the military were not able to contain the outbreak in part the fault of the civilians. Examples of this are crazy people as the governor who killed an entire convoy of National Guard and they were not hostile. cobalt protocol was to evacuate the remaining troops and reassembles them into a new line of defense, probably any base or aircraft carrier, perhaps a fleet. being part of the protocol for sure the bombing of the hordes that were trapped in marked areas, as the arena that stupid family opened with that many zombies escaped and even destroyed the evacuation plans and most of the troops who were on the base.
although crazy, the governor was right about one thing he said in the comic, the war against the zombies was not won because many people only looked at themselves and fled the fight, preferring to hide. this applies to both civil and military, nothing that many civilians have sought to derail what could the military who were willing to fight. Another important point are the members of the control of diseases not assumed duty as the doctor said in the first season.

[@ibepraising9817]

You see my good Sirs and Madams of UA-cam, in real life the military would demolish a zombie horde easily. for example- Imagine a zombie horde versus a single Abram's tank, or a single Apache helicopter. A tank would just roll over the horde while an apache would simply destroy it with Hydra missile pods and 30mm -113mm rounds that would be fired from its main gun, that may I mention the main gun can fire up to 300 rounds per minute. The only let down of the main gun would be it requires ten minutes to cool if it overheats but I'm sure that the horde if not already gone would be small enough for infantry to handle by the time the gun would overheat.. It is somewhat reasonable for the infantry to not do very well at first though I suppose because in military training Soldiers are trained to shoot at center body mass instead of the head. But you think they would catch on to the fact shooting them in the body wasn't working. But now that I got that out of my system, I have to say this show is very good even though the military is dumbed down in order to avoid turning the show into a Zombie annihilation series. xD

Even amateurs understand that having ONE over-watch position with seriously limited sight would be worthless/pointless. The first thing they'd say is, 'I can't see shit' and move to a different position for a better angle of the surroundings.

[@BillyMinnow]

They made them look like mall security guards. Even amateurs are better than this.

[@wintertimber1749]

That old man honestly had nothing to lose

[@JonasR001]

I've got only one word: DRACARYS!

[@connorgolden4]

I've always hated the idea that the army (or any military) could be defeated by a horde of zombies-especially slow ones! A couple of grenades, 50 cals, mini guns, Apaches and bombers turn zombie hordes to ash in minutes.

[@wetlettuce4768]

Throw in a couple of M3 Bradleys and the army would be untouchable as long as they had fuel and ammo.

[@colonelcal]

Look, the army has hands tied proboably, its spreading across us, they deploy soldiers to different areas to stop it, the money they need will run out fast, purchasing ammo, explosives, training, and all those helicopters aren't cheap, maybe those soldiers weren't fully trained cause they needed more soldiers deployed to stop virus, maybe they only had basics until they where deployed to stop the zombies. Then they need to pay for gas for the tanks and aircraft in other areas. Maybe places like the capitals of the state's where way worse than that small town! They have so much to worry about, hazmat teams, ammo, guns, new soldiers, lab testing, gas, equipment, new vehicles, medical supplies, and more explosives to combat zombies, they can't send 65,000 soldiers and 5,600 vehicles to every infected area, Gosh. In my mind, this seems logical, except they only had a fence and a few posted guards.

[@privatebandana]

This is just so stupid.
1. They didn't hear the zombie horde of thousands before they reached the side of the wall? Really?
2. A simple fence as the main gate, why not block that fence with a humvee? The humvee stands 2 meters away. 0:44
3. At 0:44, you can also see a humvee with a .50 cal on top behind the tower where the two soldiers stands. That shit would plow through the zombies like butter.
4. Why not jump in 2-3 humvees and/or the huge truck that is shown at 1:03 and plow through the zombie horde?
5. No grenades? No explosives at all? Really?
But nah, heavily equipped soldiers with a base. Has less chance to survive than a random bunch of civilians that causes drama amongst them 24/7. Seems about right.
I know this is a TV show, but jesus.. it's annoying to see the most armed and well trained people get crushed the first few episodes. While a bunch of cry babies run around and survives for seasons, while most of them doesn't even have the most basic survival training.
These type of shows would have been so much better if the military had safe zones in for example every state. But outside the safe zones were pure chaos, but that was cleaned up day after day by military sweeps, just how a real life zombie invasion would most likely look like.

[@TalonAshlar]

This is what claymores and anti personnel mines are for

A zombie apocalypse with slow zombies isn't possible because they're easily killed. Deal with it.

InMyFreeTime that's the reason why are zombies from 28 Days Later series better - cause theyre running

[@phonsenajan8655]

TheMinishGuy To be quite honest I found it hilarious that they lay the absolute smackdown on the victims instead of biting them. It's like getting steamrolled by an angry mob hell bent on killing you

[@louiscz6784]

William Wykoff in 4 weeks, they wiped out the population of britain. In four weeks. In the first movie, there was a Brigade of 800 men in camp near Manchester, protecting that city. The infected came and only 9 soldiers are known who have survived. Only 9 of 800.

[@louiscz6784]

And the infection is fast. Only one little drop of spit, blood , or just a kiss, and in 12 seconds its done.

[@MetalGuitarEdi]

Imagine having helos, all those high buildings to set up spotters, patrols, all the technological advancements, mounted LMGs, Guards with M249's and still allow a horde to sneak up on you.
"Good writting"

[@romancasella9926]

They're fighting an enemy that does not fear them and will keep coming regardless of their fancy weapons. Limited ammunition against basically a city of zombies.

[@rageagaintstheNWO]

And basically everyone is retarded and cant hit a target big as a human from point blank range.

[@operatorchicken1081]

Russian's don't have to do anything, just party and drink vodka while the zombies freeze.

These military guys have a REALLY BAD SHOT. I mean theyr aim is horrible!. IRL military would have taken out all of them.

[@Luftwaffle47]

+Daniel Clark ever heard of the battle of yonkers in world war z?

[@FULANODETAL]

+Luftwaffle the battle where Brooks forgets all about bullet penetration,and the effects of 150mm rounds of artillery..
In this scene the 5,5MM BULLETS WIll ve abble to penetrate the zombie and the zombie behind ..

[@Luftwaffle47]

maybe but it the adrenaline rush that makes weapon fire inaccurate, i was not talking about ballistics, but the fact that the army infantry were in conditions that they were not trained for and were unable to react appropriately. just saying.

[@Luftwaffle47]

either way the Army should have been able to hold them off. it's only a few hundred zombies, vs the millions in the Battle of Yonkers.

[@TheMartuksxxxx]

Luftwaffle 1 Question Always bothered me:
Why did soldiers left theyr tanks?
Tanks are Armored, Airtight, Can go almost throw everything, And you cant open them from outside.
Why didnt just military live inside of armored vehicles, and drive them over zombies.

[@HighGothicArmature]

I love how instead of shooting the ones closest to the fence they shot wildly

[@ChlebRazowy]

That amount of zombs with that arsenal man, should be pice of cake. Clearly no real gun specialist there, that caliber of the right soldier... should just melt that crowd like ballons. :D

[@MrMedukneusha]

Pretty much liberal CA as it is.

[@Krazygamer-ot6qh]

MrMedukneusha you have that right my good sir

[@bobthelonghairedboi5425]

WHY BOTHER FIGHTING THEM THERE ARE THOUSANDS GET OUT OF THERE!

[@TheMSupreme42]

Walkers were definitely harder to kill when they were fresh... you don't see Rick and the group taking a whole herd on until they were slower and more decomposed, before then it was all about hiding. Keep in mind the soldiers aren't used to them here unlike the post-apocalypse survivors
and are probably shitting themselves against a herd that moves like regular people, knowing they're the complete opposite.

[@jacksonville667]

The M60 at the start could have handled the entire horde let alone 60+ men and a chainlink fence with hummers with MGS.

[@monos70]

what a stupid part when the guy just walks by telling the soldiers "oh there's some walkers coming this way"

[@NDB-AK]

So fake..... Where the fuck are there bullets going?

[@antoinelachapelle3405]

Army : has Tanks and APCs and grenades and landmines and knows how to build top notch fortifications with elbow grease and short spades and can deploy barbed wire.
Army planning : *puts 2 guys in a very light tower behind a chain link fence and keeps the armored vehicles unmanned in the back*
Also you'd never make it to a "restricted zone" without any other soldier asking you why you're even walking around within half a mile of a restricted zone.

[@charlesb8230]

If Rick and Daryl were the ones on that watch tower, maan, that herd would be dead in one minute.

[@muindoe]

0:30 AND here is a montage of how even if one of the guards has a machine gun, the MANY bullets shot out of his gun don't seem to hit anything.
Seriously!!! they shot so many bullets and they had zero affect what so ever.

[@smackedinthejaw]

This is why you need a motorbike with chainsaws attached to each side

[@brimazzu3223]

Also, season 3, Morgan had spikes and punji sticks in a street with no formal perimeter, in warm bodies, the entire city had spikes near the entrance. Fear the walking dead: one chain link fence a foot deep should keep out The infected population of LA

[@spartagaming3404]

Horde is a bit of an understatement don't you think. He had at least a small army of walkers behind him.

[@nerdlord6164]

The old guy just walks away like it was nothing

[@MrMisterman1]

I would have yelled 'Hey boys! Fresh meat!' to the walkers as I left if I was there.

[@CalculusVariations99]

a quickly built hesco wall could take the brunt of a whole city of zombies but apparently they think shitty chainlink fencing is enough

[@MrPapasvhilly]

Wouldn't be a zombie show/movie if the zombies didn't use stealth mode .....u would think u would hear thousands coming for many blocks away making those gagging noises but nope only when they are on the door step after the old guy announces their presence

[@Honeysmile13]

those two soldiers posted on guard are probably thinking, "that old man is real dick for leading a horde here."

[@M.A.S.K._Crusader]

No rocket launchers? Mortars? 50 caliber guns? Cannons? Grenades? Just 2 guys with machine guns?

[@stormtrooper5965]

MASK Crusader One MG and a M4A1 with attachments, but I get your point.

[@Kasanemangaidv]

They shoot randomly which leads to less bullets and easily gets overwhelmed.

[@HELLFIRE0239]

Guys keep in mind that Rick killed probably twice as many zombies with his bare hands in Alexandria yet hundreds of trained soldiers equipped with advanced weaponry fail to even scratch the horde.
Or when Rick and Coral killed them with two fcking M16...

[@tesstickle7267]

That old dude knew what was up,he would fit in to the walking dead time line way of doing thing. just go for a casual walk and use the dead as a weapon

[@Foxtrop13]

for circumstances like these is why the MK19 grenadelauncher was invented

[@Jet_Black_Gaming]

Deacon St John: hold my beer

[@ceruleanpony2822]

Several well placed 50 cal's and M134's will be more than enough to take out a horde of that size.
Tanks, LAVs would also be sufficient, overkill but efficient.
But if they had that, this scene would hardly be suspenseful. It'd be more of an adrenaline shoot'em'up thrill ride montage.
Realistically, the military would be better equipped to handle this threat.

[@meurum2561]

Cerulean Pony depends tbh, we have soldiers going Awall to protect their families and we clearly see that there was a tank that got overrun in the first season.

[@Saw321lol]

Plus just a few 50. cal rounds can completly destroy just about anything, imagine how many zambies it could kill with a few bursts fired at the center.

[@MrChaosTheory09]

If you say so. Go read World war Z.

[@egnbigdave]

modern military in general is trained to aim for center of mass, not headshots.

[@dbzlover666]

It's literally the same thing.

[@LinhNguyen-pf7dr]

The thing that confused me most that, in the TWD early season it show like 3 scenes where the zombies run, but for some reason at other scenes they walking, but confused me most that, they usually appeared as horde

[@devonpotts6101]

The black soldier kind of looks like the one that dies in the walking dead helicopter crash when the gov. Comes along

Walks up to the only watchpost at the front of the camp when the zombies couldve attacked at the rear end where no guard towers were guarding 😂😂

[@megakillowning]

I don't understand why they didn't notice the horde that obviously makes a lot of noise. and from their numbers you could obviously hear them from a far

[@dimitripetrenkov5313]

Actually it makes sense that the military fails in TWD, A) Zombies did not existed in that universe so this is 100% new for them B) Automatic rifles in this case the M4A1 fires 600 rounds per minute, when you only need one and if you go SEMI AUTO it fires 3 rounds, that with a 30 rounds magazine means at best 10 kills, C) They are using tactics that are effective against humans not again the undead

[@Scottx125Productions]
