22 lbs is a insane amount of weight to lug around

are you retarded?

why would anyone carry that around

for 22 pounds i can carry a months supply of food and water and a sleeping bag and gear(shovels axes)

you need to optimize your shit

yeah when a hundred zombies pile on top of you I'm sure you gonna be glad you at least won't die a relatively quick death of being eaten alive

I'm sure starving to death under a ton of rotting corpses all trying to get at your juicy bits is much preferable

best bet is to find some illegals, find a girl or two that's not infected, then just wear the pussy out while high out of your mind before blowing your own brains out.

i've already decided that if shit goes down in real life that causes an end of the world scenario, i'm going to rape until my balls are dry, then surf the days away until i'm surrounded and take my own life. fuck this survival shit, would you really want to survive after a zombie outbreak? if over 80% of the globe's population died out, do you want to be one of the last few alive? enjoy that shit life.

>>384459291

Not that guy but I presume you've never done any walking with any type of gear.

In the military we had approximately 15-20 kg of equipment on us (and that was the bare essentials) and even the most athletic guys were having trouble after a couple of hours of marching/walking.

Realistically what would your plan be in the case of a zombie apocalypse?

>>384459207
>>implying zombies die of thirst and starvation considering that they're dead in the first place
Being dead doesn't stop entropy from working, anon. At some point they're going to get dehydrated, and if that doesn't happen they'll burn through all of their body fat, eat everything near them, and start to die of starvation.

>>384459285
Someone would notice the virus infecting random patients in a hospital. Hospitals are petri dishes of disease at the best of times and an unkillable virus would be caught pretty quickly. Plus long incubation periods mean easier for the body to fight.

Look at swine flu, it got fuckin reckt.

Either they'll die or run out of energy and just stop moving.

unironically, this. if you live anywhere near an infected zone, you will be quarantined. and if there's no answer to stop it from spreading, it will be carpet bombed to death.

the first sign of outbreak should get you moving far away as possible before the government steps in and blocks all exits.

What the fuck. I was about to address something else that guy said, but then I stumbled across your retardation levels and could NOT let it go.
First, lets convert 22 pounds into proper units. I'll even be generous and round it up. It's 10kg. One litre of water (AKA LESS THAN YOU NEED PER DAY, YOU FUCKING RETARD) = 1kg. So, lets pretend you aren't also bring food, sleeping bag and your retarded shovel. You're now carrying around less than 10 DAYS worth of water.

I can't even finish this. You're too stupid. I'm so mad that this is what American education is doing to people. The worst part is, America doesn't just create idiots and then contain them, it unleashes them upon the world, so now we have to correct the mistakes of your faulty system. Do the world a favour and pick up a fucking book.

I also have several guns and several thousand rounds saved up.

and I really wanted to be a dick, I could juke and just push him down. he won't be able to jump to his feet in the time it takes me to burst 20 yards and be well out of his zone.

They might be a POG or some shit since you don't have light rucks in the US. Yeah an extra 22 lbs isn't nice but being able to not have to worry about being bit and dying makes it a lot easier. It's also all over your body and not just on straps on your shoulders, I really feel like these people have never backpacked in their lives since layered clothing has some weight to it but you don't feel it like if you just had it all stored in your pack.

Even fucking womens weight vests are like 10-20 lbs lol. If you think 22lbs is a lot to run with I doubt you could outrun someone running at you in chainmail since they probably have actually worked out a couple times in their life.

This anon is exaggerating the strain of the situation, but I actually wonder how many of you have actually carried around so much as 5 liters of water any considerable distance.

I've had to do that shit and it's not pleasant, if I had to do it while the streets had any amount of zombies in them I'd drop carrying shit and focus more on getting to safety. Simpler to just know where to get food and water at a location rather than moving it around and endangering yourself anyway. Not just from zombies either, if some cunt is watching you perform this circus act you'll compromise yourself eventually to scavengers or some sick fuck who intentionally impedes your route just to have a show.

Whether you're wearing 10kg of clothing or 0 the problem with zombies isn't really whether you can absorb the attack of one but what happens when you're surrounded. Wearing a lot of anything isn't going to make that situation ideal, better to plan to avoid it
>And wear nothing?
Probably not, but probably better to wear something that doesn't just buy you a few more hours smacking away at the closing crowd.

Couple this with third world barbarians who literally live in their own shit while simultaneously taking 20 antibiotics for a cough so incurable super-viruses evolve and we're well setup for a mass extinction event.

>>384460781
The foundation of the zombie apocalypse is that there would be a large amount of people zombified at once, either through a catastrophic event in a large location like a mall or widespread saturation of a virus. It's also dependent on humans being unable to kill zombies due to a lack of preparation as well as difficulty in disassociating with the zombies as humans. Ironically most of our preparation for this fictional event is based off fictional media, so technically nobody will be "prepared".

>>384461429

Yes, because medieval battles lasted for a few seconds. Knights totally didn't spend entire days wearing that shit and walking around in it.

It's a tested concept that works.

Besides, if your choice is being sweaty and tired from wearing armor or being dead because you got bitten by a zombie then it's a pretty easy choice.

>>384461127
Nigger are you retarded? Lots of German police have chainmail suits to protect from blades and animals. German SEK and riot police all have chainmail for that shit because its great for stopping blades.

Chainmail IS used today, by tactical response police to terrorist incidents because terrorists love bladed weapons. It's heavy as fuck and once the incident is over they immediately remove their kit. They're not wearing it 24/7, and Zombies don't use machetes.

You're far, FAR better off with leather armour. Lighter and much better protection from average scratches and bites.

You are also forgetting all the police in the US and local militias and gun owners etc. Just the police would be able to handle it since they roll around with multiple ARs in their cars, shotguns and their side arms. Swat and your local police force would be able to handle it so easily, let alone getting help from all the gun owners in the US. Maybe if it was a country that had almost zero firearms I could see it happening but not the US.

Armor only became obsolete due to firearms being able to easily pierce it. If it offers 0 protection, yeah it's dead weight.
However, if we assume a zombie apocalypse, they are not going to shoot fucking guns at you, meaning old armor will find its use again.

Eh, does not have to be much written if it's graphic, like this is. Short stories are fine, I read probably too much shit just for the sake of reading sometimes. Only thing I've straight up dropped and ain't gonna pick up again is the "Crossed" stuff. Cheers once again.

Chainmail can be easily obtained apart of diving equipment

>>384463051
ooooh that's a good one

>>384462640
You mean arguing against someone who has no clue how many people are armed and how competent the police force actually is and the national guard? It'd make sense if he was a european talking about the US at least because then he wouldn't know that LAPD could probably handle all of LA on their own since they have about 13k employees and it would be piss easy unless these are magic zombies who are immune to bullets. Just sit at the station and set up some barricades and just keep shooting, they have plenty of helicopters and California is full of military bases. They could just wall off areas and funnel shit so easily. Just look at the boston bombing and what boston mobilized to sweep the area and find them something like 19k National Guard plus the police force.

>>384463308
Stupid, chainmail doesn't stop stabbing or piercing. It's AWFUL against it. It's made primarily against cutting, slicing and slashing.

>>384463365
That's because sharks teeth aren't that long, they are made to RIP and TEAR not to STAB.

Ductkape would be unironic good binding for other makeshift armors, but ducktape alone is fucking useless. It would just make stabs, bites, etc more fucking dirty

That doesn't take into account the actual movement of a fight, and that isn't a properly worn garb of chainmail. He should have gotten a properly sized piece and put it onto a mma dummy.
