1) Pick Virus. 2) Start in Canada, Greenland, New Zealand, Cuba (if not, restart.) 3) Sell starting symptoms (if any), other than sneezing. If you don’t have sneezing, buy it. 4) Buy 1-1-1-0 resistances. 5) Once your disease spreads to a few countries, sell sneezing to get rid of visibility. 6) Wait until all countries are infected. If Madagascar closes or this is after day 30, restart. 7) Buy all 4 Drug Resistance and buy sneezing, coughing, vomiting. 8) After a few days, unlock tier 2-3 keeping whatever symptoms it gives you. 9) Buy fever, fatigue, diarrhea, pulmonary edema, hypersensitivity, and hemorrhaging. 10) Wait until everyone dies.
Funciono bem, mas demoro mto pra pega a impossible!

first off, beorn is completely right about plane and boat routes(pandemic 3 update?). some of us do like to analyze the game and point out faults for future reference or updates. also pointing out hints like the man coughing in brazil is helpful, as it is also true. if you dont like reading something that someone else has posted DONT READ IT!

WTH are you guys talking about, everything he says is true. And frankly, I'd rather have someone point it out, then let so much bull go unnoticed.

- Apparently the world is either flat or travel companies are very inefficient, because no one ever crosses the Pacific. For example, a plane going from Japan to the US will travel all the way over Asia, Europe and the Atlantic to get there, instead of just going the short way directly across the Pacific. Boats do even worse, having to go all the way down to New Zealand and moving under Australia, all the way around the Indian Ocean, then through the Atlantic. Also, it would appear that the Panama Canal and Suez Canal no longer exist, because boats will go all the way around continents instead of just cutting through where the canal should be, even though using the canals would cut travel time in half in most cases.

- When practically everyone is infected and you have high lethality, millions of people die per day. However, when the numbers start to get lower, people take longer and longer to die, even though the disease is still just as lethal if not more so than it was before. So, while in the middle of your killing spree you might average 40 million deaths a day, when only 10,000 are left it will probably take a few days for all of them to die.

- It seems unlikely that a virus would be able to infect various species of rodents and insects besides humans. Viruses attach to a cell through specific proteins in the cell membrane that vary depending on the species and cell type.

- Genetic mutations in your species affect all specimens around the globe, instead of only the region where the mutation occurred (this is a minor issue, probably due to gameplay reasons).

- Countries are able to sustain their economy even when they become completely inaccessible to the rest of the world. Reverse-globalization, apparently.

- Vaccines dont work against parasites. In real-life, vaccines only work against viruses and certain types of bacteria. But it’s impossible to be immune against a multicellular organism.

- Natural disasters pay no regard to climates – extremely dry places will be flooded, extremely wet places will have droughts, places nowhere near fault lines will have earthquakes.

- Vaccines not only prevent infection from the strain of disease that they were first designed for, but every single form of that disease which may evolve from it. In real life, new vaccines for diseases such as the flu have to be made each year, since the virus will grow immune to the earlier vaccine.

- Even if a country is completely inaccessible, with borders, shipyards and airports shut down, it can still receive the vaccine or deploy it to the rest of the world.

- Even if everyone in a country as dead, as long as the hospital didn’t close, the hospital will continue researching a vaccine and, if they are the only hospital left, still single-handedly deploy it to the whole world. My guess is that they anticipated their own extinction and built robotic medical scientists to keep the vaccine project floating.

- Closing borders prevents disease from getting in via bordering countries AT ALL, despite the fact that some people are always able to sneak over borders. Plus, it would be literally impossible to catch and kill every single insect and rodent that tries to get in. The only explanation is that “closing borders” actually means “enclosing the entire country in an impenetrable protective bubble, which also extends 5 miles underground.”

- Though at the beginning of the game, the world’s population fluctuates normally, by the end of the game it has completely stopped changing on its own. Nobody ever dies of old age, other diseases, or even when natural disasters strike. Also, apparently this invincibility-immortality has made mankind decide not to reproduce anymore, since the population never increases either.

- When the world is on alert and shutting down everything, the government’s response time to disease evolutions is amazingly fast. If, for example, you purchase rodent transmission, then within a couple of game hours many infected countries will start exterminating rodents, though no one was apparently even considering doing it before.

- First and most obvious, the world’s governments are both psychic and extremely panicky. Even if a disease has no symptoms and is from all appearances COMPLETELY invisible, the government can still find out that it’s infecting their country (though really, if it’s just another totally benign germ like the billions that are already living on humans, is “infect” even a proper term?). When the government DOES magically discover the spread of this totally harmless new species of microorganism, instead of treating it as simply a new discovery (there are many benign viruses, bacteria and parasites, and new ones are discovered all the time), they freak out and try to completely stop the spread of the disease. This in turn makes all the other countries start trying to close their borders to prevent this deadly (read: “not at all deadly”) organism from getting in.
