So I'm finally lucky enough to get my killer virus to start in Madasgascar. Huzzah! Ok, patiently wait for it to spread. Good Good. Almost everywhere...uh oh... people are freaking out.... closures, closures..... ummm, why is all of Africa still bright green? SEND A SHIP TO AFRICA SOMEONE!!!!!!!!! OMG...... All of Africa has lived..... Everyone else died.... If you're going to call a version of this game realistic, then you'd better have a freaking boat form Madagascar go to South Africa at least once in 100 days.
BLAH

Realistic mode isn't very realistic. How come Madagascar closes down their shipyards before every single country in Europe?! Dam those lemurs are smart.

Has this happened to anyone else? One time when I played this I managed to kill all but one person, only to find said person is stuck on a boat with all the ports closed!

1.) Pick Virus. 2) Start in Canada, New Zealand, Cuba, Greenland, West Europe, or Madagascar. If you do not get there restart. 3) Sell the starting symptoms, and buy sneezing (unless it is what you started with, just keep it). 4) Buy 1-1-1-0 resistances but no transmissions (they trigger closures). 5) Once four countries are infected, sell sneezing to get rid of visibility. 6) Wait until all countries are infected. If Madagascar closes its shipyards/borders or is not infected in 30 days, restart. 7) Buy all four drug resistances AND sneezing, coughing, and vomiting. 8) After a few days, unlock tiers 2-3, (do not buy tier 4 ever!) keeping whatever symptoms it gives you. 9) Buy fever, fatigue, diarrhea, pulmonary edema, and hypersensitivity. Then save for kidney failure and ataxia. 10) keep this comment alive.
I got the badge on my 3rd try.

Apparently this game can not allow and airborne, waterborne, insectborne, rodentborne disease to spread beyond a country's boarders. Just being water and airborne, a highly infectious disease should be able to spread from weather, or even insects to animals to people....But that is apparently beyond this game....

after countless (literally) failed attempts to kill madagascar, my virus starts off in madagascar. I may have hugged the screen.

News Caster: THERE'S A HIGHLY INFECTIOUS FATAL DISEASE RAVAGING THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIEEEEE!!!! In other news, the storms over Greenland are clearing up.

I feel a little spark of hope every time I see a ship enter Madagascar, only for it to be crushed every time it's not infected.

There is no point to continue past "government of madagascar shuts down shipyards", the game becomes unwinable at this point.

Twelve days in, a harmless disease has infected four countries and Madagascar shuts down their port. Well played, Madagascar, well played...

The only way to have a really good chance at winning this game is to start in Madagascar, if you win from any other starting point its just pure luck.
