Plague Inc. Custom Scenarios - The Thing

[@REplayer001]

-fixed typos "oh great!" -introduced new, hidden typos "wait, what?"

[@LightTrack-]

Lol yeah that was pretty random.

[@JW-di5eb]

Hidden typos like Japan closes its land borders?

[@marinduquenongcaviteno68]

Oh

[@GnomeMemer1]

25% of humanity: *starts growing limbs and tentacles* researchers: this is fine

[@dmdizzy]

"Japan has closed its land borders"

[@JaPasa]

Good job Japan. I applaud thee.

[@votecthulhu9378]

thats gonna keep those filthy infected outside

[@Anon-mu8re]

OH NU LORD CIN CIN IS HERE

[@doublexolon]

It's America,with guns and boats,gun boats " Open up the country,stop having it be closed."

[@Xer405]

Random Human I remember that video, nice reference

[@not_a_therapist]

*The thing* terminology 1. Macready blood test. Originally done by Mac in the Antarctic base in the 1980’s film, every living being in the base was told to provide a blood sample. Mac would heat a wire with a flamethrower, and contact the blood. If the blood reacted violently, the blood donor is a thing. 2. Norwegians in the Arctic. I can’t do jack squat in this one because, well. Plague INC doesn’t have the Antarctic. 3. Teeth and jaws This is actually quite canon. In the 80’s film, one character has a heart attack after being presumed as the thing, and sure enough, as the base’s doctor, copper goes to use the defibrillator, the person’s torso opens to rows of bone like teeth, cleaving both of copper’s arms off. 4. Tendrils Tendrils were used heavily in the 80’s and the 2011 remake. Multiple scenes showed these being used for assimilation, the first shown assimilation has a thing-husky grabbing the other dogs in the kennel and assimilating them. In the 2011 film, most assimilations used them, much to the film’s dismay. These overused tendril kills, combined with the abundance of forgettable characters and sometimes horrible CGI proved how much better practical effects and actual smart characters can be. The ‘88 film had smart characters knowing what to do in certain situations. The fifties film is very unrecognized due to it having a different title. Many think the 80’s film is the best of the three. Myself included.

[@holiciomes]

Carpenter's movie is from '82 :)

[@No1Victim]

Spoilers to be explained for 7:28 why that upgrade is very useful. In the 1982 version, Ma'Cready did a test where he had a blood sample in a bowl and took a blow torch to a copper wire till it was red hot then poked the blood. If it did not jump out at you, your human. If it did. Your the thing.

[@plonk8394]

PiggySaysOmNomNom and what next? was he the thing? i am highly intrigued right now

[@smoughornstein421]

Space Cat watch the movie, its that simple

[@DatAsianGuy]

watch the movie. its practical effects still hold up today and is my personal favorite horror movie

[@door9520]

Plonk A thing jumped out on one guy and his face melted and a bunch of people died and stuff.

[@complex3023]

man imagine if pewdiepie said ree in that scene XD

[@thefirstprimariscatosicari6870]

I think you got one star because you played like a standard zombie apocalypse instead of like the Thing. What made the Thing so horrifying is that you could not tell who was infected and who was not.

[@ShadowDarkon]

This dude clearly hasn't seen what The Thing is capable of

[@cinnamonflavord]

Someone needs to make a Custom Scenerio that causes bad grammar

[@panzerjager1124]

Good idea

[@Commissar_Eiven]

Dr. Peter Lankton I get you brother

[@williamwonka9299]

Fuck yah

[@drew1292]

Z com is the cere!

[@Lillie_Lilypad]

Gloom Guy it should be called "comment section"

[@willcooke5308]

I'd love to see a film where the Thing escapes from the Antarctic and begins to infect the world. This is the next best thing, I guess...

[@Fourtytwo4242]

Will Cooke world would end that's it in the movie they flat out said it will take no more then a few days for the world to end it be more like a few humans last stand before they die even then all it takes is a few bugs thrown in there mouths then the thing wins

[@larserik8899]

Will Cooke it can't it's too hot for it Anywhere else

[@DulksVenee]

+Will Cooke No movie has been made but there is a screenplay of a miniseries where the thing actually gets out of Antarctica. It's a sequel for John Carpenter's movie. It's called the Return of the Thing. You can actually read the screenplay on the internet. Part 1: www.outpost31.com/media/Return_Of_The_Thing,_Part_1-_Exposure_(Johnson)_[2005-2-11]_[1st]_[Unprod.]_[Scan]_[tv].pdf Part 2: www.outpost31.com/media/return_of_the_thing,_part_2-_extreme_amplification_(johnson)_[2005-10-7]_[1st]_[unprod.]_[scan]_[tv].pdf

[@NeutralGuyDoubleZero]

Lars Erik Johansson That was never a plot point in any of the movies or media. They state in the movie that if the thing made it out to civilization the world would be consumed in about 3 days. It could just infect a fly and it'd win automatically.

[@fragrantwinter8233]

I feel like that would turn into another Resident Evil film.

[@snakymocha7778]

Sheesh. After watching the movie, the details of the upgrades is enough to send a chill down my spine.

[@bboi1489]

Fun Fact: That creature at the beginning when the "monsters" were discovered is the Kennel-Thing/ Dog-Thing from the movie where a dog is infected and when it tries to infect the other dogs the outpost 31 team catches it in the act as it screams at them

[@micah7633]

Just imagine that you look out the window out on the street and see a infected koala chasing somebody on the dark road making croaking noises. Then you see a hoard of zombies coming out of the darkness. That’s scary.

[@niomastrength2005]

Divide and conquer makes the thing split into multiple smaller things when close to death(permanent death). Watch both versions of The Thing, they will explain all questions, except for what happens next.

[@tallstar513]

In the 1982 remake, the "Macready Blood Test" is where Mac takes all the survivors, slits their hands open, and tests their blood with a hot wire, since The Thing's blood reacts hostily to heat.

[@shady0216]

no, according to the scenario designer, the combat strength is a completely different stat from severity and they don't interact.

[@danivarela-mathis1956]

"The Thing from Another World" (1951 "cheese fest")(description) a humanoid alien whose DNA is more similar too a carrot than a man goes on a murderous rampage in an Antarctic lab "The Thing" (1982 remake)(description) a eucariotic organism is uncovered in Antarctica that assimilates all life it comes into contact with, it's also very terrifying

[@friendlyfire3412]

Heavy : I fear no man... But that thing... ITS SCARES ME.

[@kaaosaf]

522 days, literally under half the time it was projected in the film (1125 days). Nice work!

[@sansthedrummer]

You killed off the world faster than what the movie predicted (27 000 hours, or just over 3 years).

[@judgeusbtch-myhandsomeuncl1033]

Divide and conquer means the weaker animals would rather flee so they dont die. (example: a fly)

[@oyonon8696]

mcready test is where the host's blood is dipped with hot wire and blood will jump out of the petri dish

[@rickar-mercenary-3804]

Daniel Non it will only jump out if threatened, which in this case it is threatened and it jumped.

[@not_a_therapist]

There’s also a plot hole here, too. Cutting the thing would also trigger a bang.

[@Aries13XIII]

@@not_a_therapist no because each cell is intelligent, and drawing blood wouldn't kill the cells, just push them away, but extream heat would kill the cells

[@suwinkhamchaiwong8382]

DeWayne Nelson Siam would survive today in winter.

[@NobodyDungeons]

if you saw the prequal you'll know that it initially started with humanity but was almost stopped till a dog escaped

[@SleepEvermore]

"The *thing* is the one we want to play with." - Pravus, 2016

[@joshlatham4391]

The thing doesn't really eat the organism but rather infects the cells and slowly takes over the host's body.

[@JadeRabbit-je4gd]

Just in case nobody mentioned it, The Thing took place in Antarctica. I'm sure you just misspoke, I do that all the time.

[@josedefreitas8366]

And they weren't canadian scientists but norwegians...

[@Cybermat47]

Jose De freitas the Norwegians found the Thing first, but the movie focused on the American (or maybe Canadian?) scientists at the base near the original Norwegian dig site.

[@TheSoulreaper6000]

American scientists

[@ee-wo9rh]

U cant start in Antarctica, so they chose the closest thing to it (aka coldest) GREENLAND :D

[@darksmiley5081]

Pravus: Okay we're missing madagascar and new guinea... Madagascar: immediately closes port Me: DUDE

[@ianjessop7336]

I love, LOVE how he's playing as the Thing from another world and he accurately choses Genetic Mimic as one of the genes. Good job, buddy. ;D

[@TheAlchemist1027]

This is my favorite movie. I wish I a triple A company would make a modern game of it

[@UrosOsium]

Maybe the score is there because you ALSO killed The Thing? You didn't ensure it would live since all zombies died with it. Explore more options with the divide and conquer o3o/?

[@shshshshsh5471]

@Old World Blues and the cure, also courier six wants to know your location

[@lightingboy1001]

macready blood test was used in the movies to tell who was a thing and who was not

[@bboi1489]

Oh thank gosh another thing fan

[@letranhoangnam3567]

The Thing Oh god if This are in real life i will Try to build a new earth that is 99999 LightYear away form the old earth And i will build A GREAT WALL if needed

[@letranhoangnam3567]

And Build Force Bubble in my new earth

[@letranhoangnam3567]

The earth will be inside the bubble

[@alexpiggy]

Donald Trump confirmed

[@asmodie1519]

I WILL BUILD A GREAT WALL AND nobody builds walls better than me

[@uhmfok8671]

if one makes it through and i kill it and im trump the THE WALL JUST GOT 10 FEET HIGHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@graveseller1]

to answer your question: the thing is an organism that spreads through stealth and attempts to make sure that it's presence is undetected.

[@mutantmaster1]

The MacReady Test: to isolate a small tissue sample and expose it to a painful stimulus like heat. Human tissue would just burn, but Thing tissue would bundle up and try to flee

[@thefirstprimariscatosicari6870]

In the original a bunch of Norwegian scientist were chasing an infected dog.

[@suwinkhamchaiwong8382]

The First Primaris Cato Sicarius It’s the start of it of course.

[@Hoshimaru57]

The MacReady blood test is probably that thing where they cut the person they think is infected, then try to light the blood on fire. And if they’re the Thing, the blood attacks them. I think that’s how it went at least. Never seen the movie, just heard a summary. Hypertrophy is the opposite of atrophy, instead of wasting away, it’s an over expression of a certain feature. For example a velociraptor’s hypertrophied 2nd toe claw.

[@hobossasinandstuff1975]

"The thing, this is the one we wanna play with." I DIED

[@JeyKakumei]

I love watching your videos at school. Now, I can tell my teachers I am trying to make my english perfect, since you correct all spelling mistakes. :P

[@Saiyan_Goku]

The best way to describe "The thing" is to compare it to "the flood" from halo. It's a great move i highly recommend it

[@Jensenrobinb]

Pretty sure necromorphs would be better to compare to

[@kingkoop28]

More like the video game Prototype

[@2brokegamers689]

I would like to mention, not only is your videos very entertaining, but also very informative and helpful about grammar.

[@ShadowDragonBorn]

Watching this custom scenario is nuts. Imagine that alien was real would seriously keep me up at night. It's pure terrifying and awesome xD

[@immaboirightmommy56]

Working on a cure = working on portable fucking flamethrowers.

[@garryquintana7186]

The movie started with a team of scientists in antartica in a norwegian station. the original is two norweigans chasing a dog. (first thing found in the movie)

[@jwitt16]

A game where you play as the Zcom might be fun

[@Tyrichyrich]

Did you know that the inspiration for Among Us was The Thing?

[@professormutant3252]

hypertrophy is basically the opposite of atrophy, which makes your muscles weak. hypertrophy does the mirror of this, and increases muscle mass.

[@kedar52]

That's why Mc.Ready blow the stations.

[@fernandotakahashi9020]

"there is nothing left" Plants: aM i a JOke tO yoU?

[@childreninmybasement1]

yes.

[@mausterl26]

Divide and conquer makes it better because the fragments that are not able to fight escapes to infect more people

[@gemtownMANCHURIA]

Rename title with "Plague Inc. With a Grammar Hitler"

[@dmontpelier]

⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

[@AngelOfDC]

Idk if the way Plague Inc works fits The Thing too well considering it can only _be_ one person at a time, no matter how many pieces get separated from it those individual chunks can't _become_ another Thing

[@Yak1312]

I want a pair of Thing pets so I can name them “Thing 1 and Thing 2.”

[@l0k1nycc]

T I M E T O D I E

[@Contredanse]

Thing Two: Don't belittle me. The Cat: Ah, yes of course. Thing 2 would like to clarify that just because he wears the number 2 does not imply in any way that he's inferior to Thing 1. Thing Two: And all of the above. The Cat: He says you may feel free to call him Thing A if you like. He will also accept Super Thing, Thing King, Kid Dynamite, Chocolate Thun-da or Ben. Thing Two: Ben. [Thing 1 jabbers incoherently] The Cat: Thing 1 says he's Thing 1 for a reason and some people should just get used to it. It's a Thing thing, you wouldn't understand. Had to put this out there. Hahaha

[@victorconway444]

It was a Norwegian crew in Antarctica that were the first victims of the Thing before the events of the film. But then, in the form of a dog, the Thing infiltrates a neighboring American base.

[@tonekodoneko]

Not just anything... It is *THE* thing

[@ShadowFox178]

The thing organism would consume all life on earth if it existed. From plants, fungus to multicellular life. The scary part is you wouldn't know if you where infected or not. As the entity won't exert itself until it feels threatened.

[@super_burstmode3652]

ShadowFox178 the thing is Pretty similar to necromorphs

[@lucasgomez0721]

super_burstmod Necromorphs are pretty similar to The Thing*

[@franzicoy]

But other comments said that the Thing no longer did so at the point in the movie after the 1st Macready blood test to be stealthier.

[@laurene988]

They should make an anti thing mode called 'RJ motherfckin Maccready'

[@LordWyatt]

If no one has said it already...the macready test is when someone takes a hot wire and touches a sample of blood to see if the blood with strongly react. The movie still freaks me the fuck out in that scene

[@HandsomeGamerGuy]

You mean when you me and Peter are doing this Bloodtest and the Blood of Peter reacts he is the one who is infected?

[@LordWyatt]

I don't know what to say to that

[@NobodyDungeons]

the cure progress got to 100% that's why the score was so low

[@TheSaxAppeal]

Custom scenarios only award one biohazard. Official scenarios award up to three

[@Branden1029384756]

Could you imagine if this happened in real life? God that would be terrifying.

[@corntrooper8881]

The Thing might’ve gone well with the nurax worm

[@alexandersworkshop9708]

Yep! You where right. It was also based on a book called “Who Goes There?” 😁.

[@alexandernance6332]

(Blood letting scene from The Thing) Okay Pravus, Your turn... OH GOD KILL IT KILL IT!!!

[@ShadowFox178]

Alexander Nance I think there was a lot of screaming.

[@alexandernance6332]

ShadowFox178 A whole lot

[@kasper7574]

You don't know what the thing is or what the thing does, that is why you got 1/3 stars

[@sivaphoenix6453]

The thing is just among us in a nutshell there's a parasite that takes over a person and then you have to survive see who the imposter is and sometimes you fail and for those who don't know the imposter is actually a parasite

[@Loregamorl]

"hoo, this is really creepy" thats what happens when you use/have to evolve the thing, it gets interesting

[@RedwoodTheElf]

The Thing was set in Antarctica, but there's no Antarctica in the game. And no, It's is not possessive, it is a contraction of "it is" - As a punishment you must go watch Weird Al Yankovic's "Word Crimes" ten times.

[@SullySadface]

"That's horrifying." Accurate.

[@The1971Cuda1]

1:41 they were hunting it down in ALASKA? wow...... Great video though XD

[@franzicoy]

Becuase Antartica is unreachable in Plague Inc.

[@intorsusvolo7834]

Imagine a movie of the world losing to The Thing.

[@gwizz7804]

Yes, that's exactly how the movie starts.

[@dekuLucario]

dude that alien blood

[@captainuseless3806]

The thing is one of my favorite movies.

[@ant13035]

I first thought of "It follows". Then the naked people on the roof...

[@nyarlathotepthecrawlingcha969]

*holds the original movie in right hand and Lord Pravus playing the scenario in left* eh.. Imma go with.... *throws the movie outta da window*

[@jmgobeli]

Great video on The Thing!

[@MysticAlpaca162]

Mcready blood test is where you put a electric/hot copper wire into a dish of the tested’s blood and sense the thing has self preservation instincts

[@MysticAlpaca162]

and can control every part of its body it reacts (sorry comment is in two parts I uploaded the first part when I didn’t want to)

[@orcatwar9810]

and one in the 00s many people did not know this existed

[@titaniumteddybear]

Dude. Watch the damn movie. It's really worth it :)

[@bboi1489]

Facts man.

[@josecuevasko4912]

Imagine they make a ditto plague scenario.

[@Xiiki]

The film is in Antarctica but you can’t spread to Antarctica, so it happens in Greenland.

[@MattJunewski]

Pravus: ''you could never tell who was the human and who was the thing in disguise'' Blood test: *Am i a joke to you?*

[@redstocat5455]

Like always Rest in peace our friends, cats and dogs

[@iankenneth9036]

The thing makes introverts introverts

[@robinl.tinderfox6696]

The fact that you obviously have not seen the movie and refer to an alien lifeform as "zombies" infuriates me to no end.

[@aeureus]

Just FYI, the Macready test from the movie was poking blood with red hot wire. If nothing happened, human. If the blood reacted, the owner of the blood is the organism.

[@hugoandresdey5547]

27.000 hours after the first contact...

[@jdpolo8679]

This

[@bungeezombie6189]

When you play a custom scenario of plague ink and win infinite IQ

[@user-zo3wy4we3t]

What thing ya got? The thing. What thing? The thing? Ok how big? Somewhat?

[@jasongirl2707]

divide and conquer means when smaller prey is about to die it runs away

[@Dummkopf02]

The MacReady blood test is where they heat up a wire and put it there blood if infected the blood jumps and leads to the bloods owner.

[@Sinnergy]

Xandman02 more detailed the thing infects the the blood and when the heated metal touches the blood the thing reacts to it being attacked and retreats

[@kazeolion]

I feel like this scenario may be better as a Shadow Plague

[@graylindblad1261]

Madagascar has closed its seaport.🤦‍♂️ It was a this moment he knew he effed up

[@marshalza4379]

Watch Pravus Gaming for gameplay and to find out about different scenarios *Nah* Watch Pravus Gaming to learn grammar *Yes!*

[@TommyRayzer]

This is also quite a difficult watch when the person playing does not seem to know a thing about The Thing or has even seen the film.

[@Nico42048]

Am I the only one who thinks that would work better with the shadow plague ?

[@cobaliumgd9805]

We start off with a few different things. Me: Your controlling him

[@tommykowalski8161]

Damn I was hoping I could be the first to make one like this

[@oldmanmorton4705]

This is why you never open any boxes on the beach... (If you get the reference, I applaud you)

[@daduck3691]

Dang right you got to evolve heat resistance cus they kill The Thing with flame throwers

[@osmium6832]

I watch far too much Rifftrax. As soon as I saw the phrase "such as seals" at 6:12 I immediately thought of Birdemic: Shock and Terror.
