My genes are on the other page. Casual as I said. USA of course as start country. I just get drug 1 ASAP and then saliva 1 ASAP afterwards. Then I get the first pop up. I did notice that I didn't get the message after I got the pop up about urban population fall. No other significant events - just silly news stories.

Thus achieving "non starter" achievement. Also had genetic hardning Update did the same thing minus drug 2 and segmented genome (just as a trial to see if it was needed or not) got popup saying they found a weakness (this is during zombie mode) I then evolved some random zombie things then a popup said blackwater failed thus giving "dead end"
This time I better spread the plague before going to zombies, I also used genetic hardening and reshuffle. After a while Darkwater thought they could cure us, but after a long time they sayed there work was not worthing it so they use their money for other project : achievement Dead End
Necroa Virus Information Here's all of the information gathered on the fourms: Boomer Combo is [Autothysis] + [Liquefactive Necrosis] Bath Time Combo is [Autophagia] + [Polyphagia] + [Cannibalism] Tank Combo is [Anabolic Boost] + [Bone Dysplasia] Spitter Combo is [Naja Mortis] + [Enhanced Sensory Integration] DarkWater: Apparently, the origins of DarkWater are in the United States. DarkWater, a private military contractor, expands the global manhunt for their missing geneticist by announcing a reward of $10m for information leading to their recovery. Second message after drug 2 (news item) DarkWater denies containment breach in weapons facility Third message DarkWater weapons facility shut down over security fears Fourth message BlackWater's failed thus giving "dead end" Chernobyl:Start in Ukraine. Activate Zoonic Shift. Then, bats and bird will have troops sent there. It has to revolve around Animals. Necroa Origins/ Egypt: A few hours ago, another person claimed to have discovered part of the achievement. Start in Egypt, for one. Possibly need Mummification (Heat and Cold, and the Reanimation Symptom that creates Zombies. At this moment, this is the most unknown of the Achievements. The person that found part of it had a message saying that there is an expedition of some sort into the Giza Pyramids. So, it all ties in. We just need to keep on looking. I think that the origins achievement has to so with DNA testing, and an incident in the past that led to the virus. The Necroa Virus is a curse, or ability made by the pharaohs to resurrect.
Test this (Chernobyl achieved) Gene, auto bubble, native, dopamine, minic, rural. Start. Ukraine Zoonotic, saliva 1 Message about survivor, this is a pop up, next messages are not pop-ups they appear in the banner only but are red background. Evolve bird/bat. After the group attack by wild dogs message. Evolve bird/bat to level 2 After pop up saying that more research, add delirium and physcosis. Research fails = test this achievement
Added drug 2 and segmented genome and I get Non Starter. Now we just have to kill them for the third achievement ! Note : saliva 2 and reshuffle are not needed. I don't know exactly for segmented and drug 2, what is exactly necessary ? Also added random symptoms for the two achievements. Gtg sleep, I'll work on it tomorrow !
I have one Chernobyl achievement, still nothing on darkwater, please please, can someone very explicitly define genes used, exact order or evolution and to what level.
Update regarding NAZG. They key is not to avoid getting noticed as I once believed. I managed to get 4.8b infected before getting noticed. Then I rushed all research related traits (both symptoms and abilities) and all the lethality I could afford to (something like 85-90% of the available lethality prior to zombies). The cure rushed like it had a red pepper up its butt. Lost at 800m dead. PS. If anyone wants to reach high% infected without getting noticed, they key is to avoid infecting India and China. Start somewhere far, like Canada or something.
This is how I got it (some things are most likely not needed)> While i was duplicating it I was typing everything I did. Blackwater "dead end": Start USA Drug Resistance 1 Saliva 1 Black water scientist concern Saliva 2 DarkWater denies breach Darkwater facility shut down due to security fears Saved DNA till 45 Insomnia, fever, photophobia, delerium, cytopathic reanimation spotted in the USA first death in the USA (I think both of these have to happen) some time later dark water will say that the virus is the weapon which escaped their facility another popup should say they found a weakness then i evolved anaerobic resuscitation, enhanced sensory intergration, enhanced motor control, peptide surge (prett much just spent all dna i had on zombie symptoms) pop blackwater failed weakness.
Thanks DeltaSypher, but still no joy. I get the Chernobyl messages immediately, i have not had a single darkwater message. Always USA, tried casual, normal, brutal level, tried with / without Genes. Tried Drug 1 then saliva 1, tried saliva 1 then drug 1. I don't understand why it works for everyone else. Please can you/someone take screenshots of transmissions/abilities/symptoms and genes and upload them here (like I did for space achievement, way earlier in the forum) Or even better video it and post to youtube.
Those are different genes from my original attempt went and got the Chernobyl "test this" if its not popping up after saliva 1 and drug 1 it has to to be a bug (or the game doesn't like you any more, hopefully it works out)
Do you buy saliva and drug at the same time ? When I don't do it I don't have the popup. Finally killed the Darkwater team ! I have some screenshot. What I think triggered it : When I turned people into zombies I didn't mutate, they thought they will manipulate the genes. Then I get some symptoms (bottom right), they started new experimentation, I get some abilities (regenerate) and Autothysis. Then new popup : team killed because of explosion (autothysis is the key element I think for the last step !) Achievement But I still don't know what to do in Chernobyl after military sent there
Thanks, no joy, i have same genes, get 15 DNA, disease button, transmission tab, salvia 1, abilities tab drug 1, return to world map - nada. IPAD 2, IOS 6.1.2 - I so hope it's a bug To Kromoz0hm - I get saliva 1 and drug 1 in that order at same time. Will go back to chernobyl and add more detail.
Try getting saliva and drug 1 when you have enough DNA (each) shouldn't beca specific order (6 DNA hit saliva then when you have 9 drug 1) see if that does it
My theory is now forf DarkWater that you need to get saliva and drug with less than about 50 people infected to get the first pop-up. So best to get rurophile and not use native biome and get drug 1 and saliva 1 at the same time as soon as you get 15 points. I'm trying to write a very detailed post about DarkWater but having some problems getting the dead end or killing the team. They either seem to successfully create Z-REST or I just destroy the US! Once I can get them working I'll post what I've got.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Darkwater at last. 33 infected. Went with boost red DNA (change from auto-pop), Aquacyte (changed from Native), Mimic (no change), rurophile (no change) and dopamine (no change)
I also think it is related to the number of infected (it explains why I often can't get the event on casual). If you need any info for your Darkwater post, ask me, I have the 3 achievements. Now I'm gonna work again on Chernobyl. No one has a clue about how to trigger the Gizeh events ?
Well done guys - really impressed at how quickly you are figuring out the origins events! Its also very fun to read
Chernobyl Pictures. Still working on writing everything down. Genes auto-pop, native, dopamine, mimic, rurophile Casual level Start Ukraine Evolve saliva 1 and zoonitic (I got both, rather than 1 wait then the other) Pop up about survivor (this is a pop up) next messages are banner only Evolve Bat Banner message - tourist group Evolve Bird Banner message - military deployed. Go zombie ( i believe i evolved bat 2 at this point as i went zombie from insomnia, so bat 2 to offset the reduced infectivity ) Pop up - <disease> identified as starting in Ukraine. Keep disease going, but not too destructive (this bit needs detail) Pop up - Chernobyl Animals infected with <disease> Add Delirium and Psychosis Pop up - Research Failure = achievement Test This. Cold 1 + 2 probably not required - I got the hot countries getting hotter message.
