    Bio major here. The "evolutionary progression" stage relies pretty heavily on the Great Chain of Being hypothesis proposed back in ancient Greece, which has been debunked ever since people understood that evolution is a thing. Also, the plausibility of a fungus making the jump from controlling insects to controlling mammals is...questionable. Their nervous systems, biochemistry, etc are significantly different. Also also, the mutations seem to be inspired more by The Last of Us, Left 4 Dead, and maybe Resident Evil than anything fungus can actually do.
    I'm not inclined to believe the author did much actual research. At the very least, he didn't let the research get in the way of how he thought zombies should work.

      such a fungus being able to control none insects is not about how its about when.
      nature is terrifying so if the fungus does evolve to be able to control none insects
      then shit is gonna start hitting the fan.

      @@Boomrainbownuke9608 whilst the fungus would cause a bit of a problem if it could control other Insects (the fungus can naturally infect and consume most insects it comes in contact with, but not force them to (temporarily) move around like the ants) because of the ald polinaters and such being adversely affected, it's unlikely as insects self regulate infected individuals (throwing them away from the hive so the fungus won't infect other insects). If it could mind control humans it could be bothersome, but only if the chances of you getting infected via insect bite is quite good, and a vaccine can't be developed, as without giant hordes of zombies, machine guns will be enough to murder them all, and flamethrowers can destroy the remains.

      Latest studies said that cordiceps(i dont know how to write it,also english is my second language,sorry if there are some misspelled stuff)which i think that scenario is all about,does not take the brain/nervous system control,but rather developes in muscles,making its victim out of control of their own moves,later making the victim unstable and aggressive by the fevers,extreme stress of you being out of control of your own body and etc. But no matter what this is all about,my guess is that if anything like that happens,were fucked,big time.

    This scenario would probably be much better if it had far lower infectivity pre the infection into humans... because the majority of the early infected are ants.

    Cordyceps.
    Also known as the 'The Last of Us zombie plague thing' to the uninitiated.
    Known to others as the mind-controlling fungus.
    It doesn't just affect ants, either, so be wary of it jumping the species barrier.

    • @CheakyBreaky
      @CheakyBreaky 8 років тому +32

      If Cordyceps were to cross the species barrier it wouldn't affect humans in any way current diseases don't.
      Prions are way scarier than cordyceps, and hell, toxoplasmondii gondii cause obsessive behavior and risk seeking behavior, and people get that from cats way easier than we would get cordyceps from ants.
      Cordyceps seems scary, but parasites and prions are scarier than any fungus, and can modify behavior significantly more.

    Oh also I don't know why there are so many spelling mistakes, I think there was some kind of error in the upload.
    Sadly I lost the files to that scenario shortly after initially publishing it, I did make a second one though.
    Second and hopefully less poorly made scenario:
    steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=929451943
    On a somewhat unrelated and self-promoting note, I am currently trying to write a novel around a similar (but more realistic, less crazy shenanigans) concept.

      @@NathanWubs actually, in the last of us, the fungus starts out in South America, and reaches humans through Infected crops (which were recalled, but not after the damage had been done) leading to a massive proportion of humanity being infected within a few days/weeks. It was this bulk infection that led to the infected taking over the US, and presumably the rest of the world, as opposed to this scenario where it's just insects slowly (ish) infecting everyone from Central Africa.

    on this custom scenario, after getting cytopathic reanimation,it basically goes forward 2-3 stages(on the mobile version) more than the original necora virus because of all the transmissions you add with the reanimation of the apes and other ones.
    other than those,total brain death turns them mindless even before they die.basically walking mindless apes.
    scary as frick,but also cool.
    and it does spread more than the normal necora virus..

    I agree with the balance issue, by the time the zombies are unlocked the entire world would have been infected, and all it takes is a few symptoms and everyone is dead, any country left isolated can quickly be solved with migrating zombies.
    And so I think what the author could go for in terms of balancing are events, this seemed solid and if the author wants it to be even more realistic, he could start by creating certain scenarios when you do this, or when you do that! I think it would be better if Z-Com is set up immediately a day/week after the zombies started reanimating and before then people would begin isolating the infected and themselves from them once the plague gets a proper amount of severity. Hell, make people block off countries faster and set up martial laws and all that. Even the Make Greenland Great Again event back in the Phoenix Virus would be a valid choice here.
    All in all it's a good and fun plague but ends too quick for proper enjoyment. 8/10 at best.

  • @Nikolai18A
    @Nikolai18A 6 років тому

    Cordyceps are a possible culprit, but what he describes sounds more to me like the Lancet Fluke, which is a parasite rather than a fungus, but in much the same way, burrows into the brains of insects and basically makes them want to climb to the top of things; ideally, blades of grass, as they are aiming for the digestive tracts of livestock for the next phase of their life cycles.

  • @franzlimit
    @franzlimit 8 років тому +1

    The start was of course plausible for this scenario since those ants infecting fungi exist but afterwards it became a bit unrealstic. I am not talking about a zombie fungi itself but about the transmission chain. Why would the illness go from all kind of insects over rodents over apes to human? I am just not happy with the lemurs to monkey to human part. It's not like a better evolved brain has anything to do with a more evolved immune system.. Should just have been insects - > livestock humans or insects -> rodents -> humans or insects -> birds humans or just insects -> humans ;) .
