quick note about the division and fallout fallout is a fucking nuclear war of course the whole world will fall soon when the earth is bombed to shit by nuclear weapons and the division wasnt total social collapse, infact the only place that was rlly fucked around that time was nyc and more specifically manhattan which was literally quarantined entirely its after some time when the entire us falls and if you take into account the differences between the diseases in tctd and tlou it becomes clear why in the division the green poison is airborne highly infectious and highly lethal in tlou the cordyceps spreads through bites and spores avode those and youll be just fine, that cant be said for the green poison cuz you wouldnt even know if someones asymptomic with it so the comparison cant really be made, and the us govt still stands during the time of the division so the comparison is kinda like out of place while i know the us has somehow turned into whatever tf it became in the division the us govt still stands and theres still a president and a semblance of government, so the comparison cant really be made between the two

If it was indeed several years, I demand Joel/Tommy DLC. Also a dlc where we play as a rioter would be an interesting point of view; imagine snowy New York where you and your friends have to steal food from government who controls everything. The logic behind cordiceps‘ s initial super fast speed of spreading was always a mastery for me. Maybe the bloody thing mutates without stop? I wanna know more about the Outbreak and its aftermaths in Part 2, such large areas as we saw in the gameplay trailer can be a good basis for telling those stories. Also: if some places have been given a heads up about CBI, it could mean that some of them can still be relatively stable societies, would be interesting to visit one of them.
@TheiPadCat6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I’d also like to see more intact places. For example judging by the fact that the Denver quarantine zone could afford to use a helicopter for some random rescue mission suggests that they are quite well off. Maybe we could visit that zone in part II? I’d also like more about the outbreak hopefully the fact that it takes place another 5 years into the future doesn’t affect that all too much.

@chistinelane Жыл бұрын
Viruses/diseases almost always start out way too infectious and deadly for its own good. No disease wants to kill it's host. it's just an... Unavoidable side effect. It wants to reproduce. It's best move is to push it's host's death back far enough that it can keep reproducing and find another place to reproduce to. Initially cordyceps probably killed the host WAY to fast. It had *just* adapted to humans and it needed to learn how to *keep* a host.

There are a few TV studios within a half mile from the Boston QZ that Marlene and The Fireflies could have made broadcasts from. WFXT Channel 25 (local FOX station) has two studios in that area: One at City Hall Plaza and one at Beacon Hill across the street from the Massachusetts State House (The Capitol) There is also WHDH Channel 7 (local NBC station) on Bulfinch Place (near Government Center). I am thinking that Marlene and the Fireflies would be broadcasting from the FOX 25 Beacon Hill Studio because the Fireflies had control of The Capitol until FEDRA forces wiped them out.

@NyanCatHerder6 ай бұрын
Joel and Tommy don't talk about it, but there *is* actually discussion of people being sick in the prologue. A newspaper mentions a recall of contaminated foods from an expanded list of countries, meaning that the FDA has had time to put out at least two bulletins since the first people came down with CBI. Since those with the infection are still apparently being treated as sick human beings rather than bloodthirsty monsters, though, the protagonists probably just don't put two and two together in the chaos. Since only produce from certain countries was contaminated, and since realistically only *some* farms would have been exporting comtaminated goods (probably a minority in each affected country), the initial spread of the infection wouldn't have been uniform. Only a few lots from a few brands would have actually carried spores, and those lots would have been processed and shipped together. During the initial wave of infection the hardest hit areas were probably abandoned, and a newspaper release shown in promotional materials bears this out, mentioning a failed quarantine of New Mexico and Texas. With smaller numbers of infected people happening to be outside of the most heavily affected regions, the rest of the US would have had some issues from the start. Those would have only been amplified as large numbers of infected spread out from the quarantined regions with the collapse of the line surrounding each. It wouldn't be extremely slow, but it couldn't be too fast, either. We know beyond a doubt that parts of Massachusetts were evacuated around a month after the fall of Austin. Even two decades later there's still a federal government, along with multiple good-sized groups of survivors outside the cities where that government holds more than nominal control. The United States is a failed state facing the possibility of utter collapse, but the fact that it isn't there yet suggests that things went at a manageable-enough pace to develop a government with staying power. Communication and cooperation between different countries and settlements would have fallen off as cities were overrun, collapsed under their own weight, or ran out of resources and fell apart, but there could have been a period of months between the first confirmed case and the point where cities furthest from the initial epicenters lost their ability to function like truly cohesive components of a whole.

That doesn't really change the point they're making, though. If anything, it would strengthen it. Cities and countries didn't implement martial law all at once, suggesting that initial impact of the disease wasn't evenly distributed. Some cities may have collapsed immediately, but others apparently maintained normalcy for at least awhile before establishing military governments.
@chistinelane Жыл бұрын
I think communication failed from lack of maintenance. Before the quarantine zones people could still repair lines, keep boost stations operating, etc. Not forever but for awhile. When they moved to quarantine... The system slowly decayed. Outages went unrepaired, etc, until only internal networks remained. At that point fedra probably shut down "the Internet".

And maybe fedra was trying to connect the quarantine zones by rebuilding the rubies highways and perhaps trying to restore America??

Hmm. I think I know which paper you’re referencing. But considering how FEDRA is portrayed I doubt they’d ever actually work towards restoring anything. They’re a brutal military dictatorship clinging to power for dear life. Even if they’re the best hope for something close to what life was like before the outbreak - connecting all the QZs would probably just be something they told/tell the citizens to appease them and stop revolts from happening. But who knows? So far we’ve only seen fedra from an outside perspective and read about them when they’re already long gone. Perhaps those viewpoints are biased or inaccurate.

I do not think that this is how it went. I believe that most of the world was affected at around the same time by infected food products from initial infected areas in the Americas. Otherwise it would have been unrealistic how the CBI outbreak could have spread so fast if it could only be transmitted via direct contact (i.e. bites) with the infected. Nevertheless, I do think your assessment is accurate based on the information that is available. The writers should have placed more efforts in the worldbuilding of this story.
