Which ones do you have, quickest option is to search youtube for "plague <disease type> brutal 1.4" or even 1.5, the the 1.4 strategies work if you also have the genes unlocked.
I was able to infect and kill everyone in 262 days I was wondering if there was a way to get it closer to 200 days.
Depending on which plague you're speaking of... Here's one with some strategies, the other posts near it also contained quite a few helpful hints: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showpost.php?p=2760559&postcount=2157
Thx! Hi! I'm new on this forum, and I want to thank all the awesome guys that found hints to beat the achievements. Not a great fan of smartphone gaming but Plague Inc. is really great. Managed to get everything combining reflexion and ideas found on this topic, that was great, thanks again everyone. Now, I'm just missing the NAZG achievement (like many of you I suppose)... Has anyone ever managed to get it? This is so freakin' hard! Please, NDemic, give us tips! Is that even possible?
That's the one that has us scratching all of our heads. So far, nobody has found it, though if you dig back through the past few dozen pages or so, you should see various topics on it. So far, we only know a few concrete things: 1) NaZG is achieved using some in-game mechanic that we have not found yet. 2) it's difficult to achieve - Ndemic suggests casual difficulty- doesn't know whether it's possible on Brutal or not. 3) it's impossible to complete 'normally', without this mechanic or without cheating, as the lethality of Necroa is not high enough even with 100% infected before being discovered. 4) Cryopathic Regeneration can not be used, as the condition is all dead, zero zombies made. There's probably more, but I'm on my lunch break and don't feel like digging through those pages.
Yeah I've read some of the topics on it, thanks for the summary! I managed to infect everyone and kill a few millions, but that's a fact, they find the cure waaaaaay too early. Maybe there's a special abilities/symptoms unlock order that pops a new combo we've not found yet, which radically increases lethality or slows the cure. I don't see how it can be possible without something like that... Still tryin'!
Yeah, you just need to buy the game once (less than 1 buck, there is a free demo version on Android I don't know if it's the same on iOS), and that's all. You can pay to unlock perks and extensions faster, but if you don't want to pay more, you just need to win! Despite the fact that the game is awesome, that's a thing that makes it even better. It's not a "free to play / pay to win" game. And that's great. That's the first time in years I see a game with free extensions! Viva NDemic. Edit (to be more precise) : - Neurax Worm = Beat all the base game plagues on brutal. Also unlocks the 3 cheat plagues (immune plague, hidden plague, unlimited DNA). - Necroa Virus = Beat the Neurax Worm on brutal.
Nazg Ok James, I give up! When is this new update with NAZG breadcrumbs coming? This forum is jus going round in circles, has been for ages! You win! Your smarter than us, you have successfully stumped the Plague inc community! Now how about throwing us a bone? Much love! X
So far, we don't believe so.. the Spalin nuke-chain can start in Necroa, but cannot successfully complete due to not having the proper symptoms to stop her.. otherwise, there is no other set of steps we've found that trigger nukes reliably. Another thread was where we tried to get the 'country in anarchy, cannot contribute to research' type messages, but again, nothing near the level we'd need to slow the cure enough. I think the trending belief is that it's probably a combination of traits being evolved (or devolved), that opens up something new.
I got a pop-up saying Italy was about to be nuked because unknown countries believed it was responsible for the zombies, and a few minutes later another pop-up saying Italy had been destroyed. I haven't been able to repeat it and don't know if it was pure chance or something I did. I was working towards the last Giza achievement and the Boomer combo, so my transmission/symptoms/abilities were straightforward.
Maybe its a bone thrown to those of us that played pandemic 2.5? I recall that there are many other references to other games; boomer, and all the other things I cant remember. Ndemic also said they got their inspiration from pandemic...maybe, just maybe, it is like the pandemic scenario where you corrupt the vaccine? It either end up resetting the cure, infecting large amount of people, or both! That would take the gene fragmentation, and the cure resistance genes...perhaps? What do you guys think?
I've seen it on occasion as well, but out of the however-many games I've played trying to find the NaZG route, it has only popped up a couple of times, and nothing ever reproducible that I've seen.. i.e. not something we can rely on to really push the numbers in our favor.
Try turning off the extra pop up messages in Settings which eliminates the random pop up "noise" and limits the messages to the relevant ones for the achievements and the normal progress of the game. Unfortunately as James has said previously, there are no breadcrumbs in the pop ups for NaZG, so it doesn't really make all that much difference! I've been wondering if the key to NaZG could be "theme based", such as "wet" (saliva 1/2, water1/2, Hyper-salivation, etc), or "air borne" (air 1/2, birds, bats, insects,etc) but at this point am simply clutching at straws. If the next update we're waiting for requires the new C++ programmer to be on-board, then we could be waiting for another two or three months at least before we get some hints on this. Keep up the good work ;-)
General status for everyone: Currently working on 1.6. Will provide more info soon but this will have some tweaks to some events (e.g. NAZG), some new events, new languages and hopefully - some form of speed runs to allow better competitive stuff Have been working on hiring a 2nd programmer so this has slowed things down. (also - brought a house!) Random-ish - as I said before, I think I was too nasty here On the to do list! Yep - apologies for this and watch for the next update It will be in 1.6. See above. Yes - will be beta tested although will leave out NAZG to prevent the beta testers getting an advantage! The update is not dependent on the new programmer - but it has slowed things down as we have had to spend a lot of time on it
Did you know that there is a parasite called Leucochloridium Paradoxum that is eaten by snails. They can actually control the brain and allow the snails to get eaten by birds Another parasite is a Fungus that makes ants leave the colony and climb to the top of a plant, it then erupts from the ants' head so it will spread the spores Another controlling parasite is Toxoplasma Gondii, it infects rodents and makes them not feared for cats, allowing them to be caught !!! NEURAX WORM !!!
Gah! Now I can't even start games, I just sit there trying to imagine how to discover a random-but-not-quite game mechanic!
Same here, last thing I tried was adding Segmented Genome after the cure reached 100% to see if that corrupted it, as suggested in a prior post relating to the corrupter gene in Pandemic. Needless to say it did not work. It could well be the right step, but as I don't know what to do before it I've no way of knowing.
