Yeah. The whole transmission to Madagascar and other island nations before they lock themselves being sheer luck needs to be fixed. The governments really do overreact to harmless strains. Once one government freaks, a domino effect seems to occur, and, if you don't have the island nations by then (Madagascar), game is over. I really don't want whether I win the game or not to be so entirely dependent upon chance as it is in this game. Otherwise, it would be quite fun.

Yeah, madagascar closing down the only way in when you have no symptoms at all is pretty lame.
Also, how about a tutorial in say, I don't know, text? Or a brief in-game tutorial comprising of maybe 3 total screens? Video tutorial might sound nice in theory but it's horrid in practice.
It was an interesting concept the first time around, but there isn't much more added and the execution isn't as good this time.

So... disease started in New Zealand and Australia somehow dodges the bullet. WTF? Islands should have extremely frequent shipping with nearby mainland?

I finally get Madagascar... but then Peru closes its borders right after. Tauntingly, Madagascar kept its port open that entire round. =(
Also there is a bug. United States got infected after everything was closed. I think a plane flew into its closed airport.
A good game, awesome concept, but very very frustrating. I don't want it easier, so much as I want it to take less time to redo. Faster speeds? Save points?

im gonna give you guys some hints... 1) you can win with virus the easiest cuz it gets evolution points fastest.
2) upgrade air, water, rat, insect as fast as you can... you need the virus to spred first than to be lethal
3) your supposed to make the virus least visible until you have infected the whole world. (stay especially away from symtoms that kills people!! it causes panic and ports shut down)
4) when the whole world is infected... well.. you can take it from there

Raven, a pretty good way to spread the virus with the minimum noticability is to sell from the beginning all the symptoms, so as not to let the other countries notice you. It will take far more time to infect other countries, but they will notice when it is too late... it may not work though sometimes

No way of finding out which countries have which resistances, the game essentially ends after about five minutes when you can no longer infect new countries, catastrophic events have no apparent impact, game does nothing towards the end. Interesting idea, badly executed.

also it takes about, oh say 3 hours to deploy the vaccine to the whole world, when it would takes months normally, haha, and can ayone tell me a good way to spread the virus without it being noticed early?

the whole world magically shut down all at once O_O
you know how long it would take to shut down the world? and even then riots would erupt and it wouldnt go over well. i like this game but it was badly thought out

He probably meant that it closed all of its ports... well the one port it has... lol Madagascar sucks... 5 times now I've infected everything but Madagascar... my gf got lucky and killed everyone on her second try......

okay thisperson,
agreed, but i think the game should be restructured and a different solution found rather than throwing half developed concepts in.

Sorry for the multi post, but if the no symptom virus wasn't detected, players would use it untill the entire population got infected, then add lethal symptoms. That would be stupid, and pointless. So stop complaining!

madagascar closing its borders because that means no one is aloud in or out of the country it dont matter that its an island!!!

Reports from other players confirm that Heart Failure is broken just like Kidney Failure.
This is sad because they are the most expensive symptoms to purchase.

Kidney Failure is broken... currently it doesn't do anything.
I have everyone on earth infected with sneezing and kidney failure, nobody has died yet and the vaccine has not been developed.
100 days later, I added fever and the entire world died in a few days.

If a parasite is external, then what good does a mask do? And closing borders on Madagascar? It's an island. Still a good game though.
