Submit your disease ideas!

Posted by Blips - December 20th, 2007


I haven't made a post in a while so I thought it would be a good time to talk about the upcoming Pandemic 2 game. The game is very close to completion and I am expecting to be able to release it soon. Some of the main features are :

- 20 unique countries
- Brand new symptoms and disease attributes
- New airport and plane system
- New shipyard and boat system
- New country services
- Streamlined interface that never takes the player away from the action

The 20 countries are :
Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, East Europe, Greenland, India, Indonesia, Japan, Madagascar, Mexico, Middle East, New Zealand, North Africa, Peru, Russia, South Africa, United States, West Europe.

Also right now for forum members on my site, there is a small contest going on where users can post a disease symptom or attribute in this thread. The top three ideas will be included in the game! If you think you have a great idea, but are not a member, register an account and post it!

Try that as a less serious disease. Not all diseases in the game should be life-threatening or it wouldn't be fun! :D

Musical chairs syndrome.

maby.........lol....how bout a zombie disease? that would be good,wouldnt it? the news can say"A Zombie Attack Spotted in ____________,A State Of Amergency Is Declared."
HOW BOUT THAT!!! after that the second news report comes"The Zombie Attack has now escaped and (however many people you want dead),The Police And The Armies Of The World Are Now Planning To Counter Attack the Zombies As They still Rage On."(if the attack succeds)"The Counter Attack Was A Succes,But Not Sure If Its Done For....."(if it fails)"The Attack Fails And Half(or however)Of The World Is Now Controlled By Zombies,And Reports Say that----[OFFLINE]"

cool eh?? plz reply back,my idea sounds cool! ^_^ =D :)

Phantom Limbs syndrome.

A limb or appendge can be full of pain without it being there.

How about a disease where red comes in from the side of the game screen when he's shot by uhhh, (a Blood BUllet??) that slowly obscures his vision. Can't wait for the new game

the 'shell' virus. a deadly virus that will make you deaf, blind and the 1 where u can't talk. eventually it will make all your organs stop working one by one until your dead

Glad to see that a sequel to Pandemic EOM is on its way. I don't game at NG as much as I used to, but I remember Pandemic from time to time and I'm excited that I'll be playing a sequel soon.

Okay, how about a syptom that causes a victim to go completly insane (you know, like raibies), that raises both deadliness and infectivity because the victim will start going crazy and biting un-ifected :P

So, any ideas on a release date?

Well... he said it would be out in late december but its now january so...

How About a new strain of rabies which needs to kill its hosts then reanimates the dead bodies.

how bout an epidemic that causes people to vomit out their organs. but if not that, how bout one that infects animals and causes them to eat humans.

or how bout one where the virus posesses the mind and causes people tho think and act violently.

how about the black plague coming back, but worse! your face slowly disenegrates like ur nose comes off then the rest, or your eyes slowly lose their vision, and when you're blind you go crazy and die, there's so many possibilities,and maybe u can upgrade ur disease at the bottom of the game. Maybe try even making more reasonable events such as "the presidents of the world are meeting up today to discuss, and probably make a plan to fix this problem" and try doing blank reports at around 75% of mankind dead to make it look like there are no more reporters around because they've been going to the events and caught the disease. Try making reports such as the disease looks like small pox, or dont eat sweet foods, wash your hands thouroghly and often, make reporter say there are bases to not catch the disease. And try making the population increase a little a day because humans do reproduce, and thats all i have to say, lol.

One disease should definitely turn your body into blue gel, and then ants crawl out of you... although this is probably my personal preference at work :D
