Wow that time it was retarded....I had 0 symptoms and I was spreading my INVISIBLE dessease via high resistance and transmutes, but they still shut down everything even though my desease doesn't even do anything..... Countries don't start shutting down borders and airports because of a cough or sneeze...especially a nothing bug..

should have a set amount of people to kill, the population of greenland would have a hard job repopulating the world on their own...

Good except the little things. Like the fact madagascar should have an airport to help infection there. Started at Australia the second time so getting off the island was hard, and they closed transit when 15 ppl were infected and handed out water and masks when only 100ppl were infected. A little wierd in someplaces but the baseline gameplay is good 4/5

This time, I started in Madagascar, but there weren't any boats leaving the island, despite the shipyards being open. I was able to infect the whole island without a ship leaving. And then they closed the ship yards. Seriously lame. This game needs fixing, and I'm not playing this again until that happens. Still 1/5.

WHAT A POS GAME!!! You can NOT beat this game due to the fact that Madagascar closes their borders as soon as the disease starts to spread, so unless it starts there, it will never get there! 1/5 due to this being such a luck based game! No skill involved what so ever!!!

i'm going to ask again: what are the disasters for? are they there just so the game is more realistic? or do they actually have a purpose?

started in madagascar, infected everybody but america, had 2 random ships stuck in the atlantic ocean. my one thought is, why does a disease not infect a water supply just randomly, if the disease's waterborne/airborne?

easy way to infect the whole world is sell all symptoms and build up resistances and transmissions then when very country has got the disease put in the syptoms to kill them off

Anyone notice that unlike the other countries, Madagascar's population doesn't go up and down for births/deaths? They're immortal and they don't reproduce.

Ships, and hence infecting Madagascar, are very, very buggy. If you watch ships, their path-finding algorithm barely works. Many ships will just sail around the globe, never making port, until they just run off the screen.
Watching Madagascar in particular, it seemed to send out one ship every 8-9 days and received one every 35-40 days. That seems to be at least an order of magnitude slower than any other port I've watched in my dozen or so plays.
After the third "Realistic" game where I killed the entire population of the globe with a virus except for Madagascar, I'm done. Until there is an update released this is just way to boring, opaque, and buggy to spend any more time playing it.

Madagascar sucks....I can never get the disease to infect it. Greenland wasnt very smart, they never did anything...must be why they were the first country to fall.

okay, we don't have visible symptoms... we don't really harm anyone... but HOLY CRAAP!!! they've shut down entire countires because of us

and upgrading to airborne means i can get on a plane and infect people when i land? viruses infect from person to person or through air and water, not from a plane...

wow, this is'nt very realistic... i cant get to australia because they have shut down their harbors... i can spread through water, and that means i need ship to spread through water?!?
