"Roboenza survival guide" FAILURE! (Deletion imminent)

[Blueiscooltoo]

You explain some common sense and some things that just happen when you play the game a lot, not really that much work...

[Mr. X]

To me, the reason why this is fundamentally flawed is that most of the time, Roboenza is pretty much just the "fight or flight" response.  Nobody's going to think "what did I read in that guide again?" when faced with a horde of zombies, they're going to do what comes naturally.

[TERRORsphere]

I Will not approve of "Zomg spam crash-bombs!" or other crap like that. That takes the fun out of the game for the zombie side.

I disagree and do approve of spam. It makes humans less predictable and sometimes more dangerous.

Now there are various ways to handle a Roboenza zombie. Fight at a LONG distance or run from the zombie.

Now now, when there are more zombies around it's more dangerous. You gotta take a few out and you're not going to snipe with any weapons. If you have magnet missile, then you're wasting W-tanks and Dive missile does hardly any damage anyway.

If Fighting is a no-choice type of situation, try to use your weapons as a Deterrent. Or if you have a good weapon, such as the Quick Boomerang, try to force the zombie into tight spaces and let em have it with the boomerang. The rapid shots should "Shove" the zombie away... but it's also noisy, possibly attracting other zombies.

Quick Boomerang is not a good weapon. It's too weak and close ranged.

There are many ways to take a zombie on or to deter them. Here's are the basic rules my suggestions for zombie survival.

Fixed.

3. Do NOT set up traps, they may backfire. Many people have had bright ideas to use the terrain against the enemy. For example, using choke-points and unleashing torrents of Yamato Spears, Crash Bombs, Metal Blades and the like. However, there's always that one zombie that WILL get around the choke-point and infect everyone else. Do not be like these people.

Don't set crap traps. Set advanced traps. These don't backfire.

6. Dont be a Hero! Another big one. If you see another survivor under attack by zombies, dont rush in to save them. You're out to SURVIVE. Not kill as many as possible. If you rush in guns blazing, soon you'll be another shrieking bot as well. May be heartless... but try to assist indirectly, like launching an explosive in their direction to probably thin out the horde.

And where's the fun in that? Also, fighting a guy on his own is far easier than 2 but it's it's a moron, then an easy frag.

8. AVOID using un-needed weapons. The Top Spin may be the deadliest weapon out there... but it takes many hits to kill a zombie and only one to drop YOU. Avoid using weapons that require you to be literally up against a zombie. Star Crash is one such useless item. Only use it if you're being chased and they're close on your heels. Top spin is simply... Inefficient. It disorients the user, allowing a zombie to get close and infect you.

I like to use top spin when the zombies are focusing on someone. I creep up behind them and then they die.

Everyone has their own methods of taking down enemies.
I just suggested mine...

...

why do I bother being nice to anyone.

[Mr. X]

Well, if they're your suggestions, why did you call it the UNOFFICIAL Roboenza Survival Guide?  It should be "RenegadeX5's tips for Roboenza".

[TERRORsphere]

It's because you tried to act like a Roboenze guru but you're so far from it.

[RenegadeX5]

I fucking give up...

[Relias]

I actually think it's a neat guide and a very cool concept for a thread, though you shouldn't take these guys playing around and giving their own advice as such an insult.  A lot of them are just trying to help or improve the guide in their own ways, or messing around in a non-insulting way!

But I really heavily disagree with some of these, especially the "don't group" thing!  Yeah, if a group of smart humans all split up and each of them are good on their own, like, Turbo and Celebi or something, it could be a good idea, but generally I think that sticking together is a good thing, as long as you make sure to keep aware of your teammates at all times and make sure not to get creamed if one gets infected.  Really, one person with Water Wave is dangerous, but 4 people with Water Wave can make it literally impossible for a zombie to do anything (which is very cheap, but extremely effective).
And I think "being a hero" is fun and cool and adds to the feel of the mode.  It might be dangerous, but I'm not gonna stop doin' it.  Also, what DTD said about Top Spin...

though I disagree with him that Quick Boomerang is a bad weapon.  It may be weak and short-ranged but in Roboenza if you're good at aiming it can stunlock any zombie that gets too close.

[RenegadeX5]

finally, SOMEONE Gets it...

And you're right, I may need to revise it. I prefer to stay alone than be in a group. [Past experience with idiots blocking the path erks me greatly.]

[RenzokukenL]

I've got a suggestion to add to the guide:

If some poor sap is running away from a zombie and is running towards you either run or get out of the damn way.

I've lost count of the amount of times I've been infected cause some dumbass who isn't afk or chatting has stood in my way and not moved.

[RenegadeX5]

Renzo I feel your pain. *pats*

I've had too many dumb idiots block my way and I end up infected.

[mugenstation360]

i feel you on that  

[Mr. X]

I've gotten infected because as I was running away while firing at the zombie chasing me, I ran into an afk player.

[Ivory]

It's even worse in crowded servers where you get blocked, infected, and raped by whatever spam weapon the masses have. All because the zombie got too close, and you were being blocked.

Sometimes it's always worth it in large games just to let someone become infected so they lose the stun immunity.

[RenegadeX5]

That's why I suggested a PUSH Feature so you can shove other zombies/players out of the way...
