  • Plague Inc is a game that allows you to mutate viruses and bacteria to take over the world, and I decided to use this to give you a warning of the biggest threat to human existence since crossroads were invented... Is this humanity's biggest threat?

This is very funny and I do indeed have architects as old friends. Although if left unchecked I am positive everyone would die from pretty things that look great on paper but are absolutely impossible in this dimension... Maybe if physics work differently...

    The fatal, or should I say vital- flaw in your disease engineering was spending points on the reshuffle too soon. When you buy the genetic reshuffle it slightly lowers existing cure progress as well as slows future progress.

    • @DarthZ01

      it was spending all his points on infectivity, so by the time he needed lethality he had no money for it.
      you have to start gaining points from deaths to keep up with the cure, or go from full infectivity to total organ failure instantly.

    • @benjiiano4077
      @benjiiano4077 Před 11 měsíci

      That is not how reshuffle works, reshuffle doesn't actually lower the existing progress, it raises the points needed for a cure.
      So it lowers the % you see, but it does not matter when you take the perk because it raises the needed points with the same points.
      You can see this effect when you look at the "cure graph", you will see that it does not influence the research points done. Only the total amount needed.

    Just a few tips for the game itself
    The air filters notification means that the disease has to upgrade the air transmission to cancel it out, there's also a similar notification for boats.
    In bacteria difficulty you can unevolve some symptoms and gain DNA points, in higher difficulties, this is backwards, and you spend them to keep the mutations at bay.

(should have ZERO mutations) then pause the game, and go from the bottom left up to 'total organ failure'.... no time to detect, and everyone dies in about 2 minutes! :)

    Little "Hack" i used when i played that game:
    If it mutates any symptoms, but you want the disease to remain unnoticed, you can directly pause the game (normally it pauses by it self) and "re-evolve" the symptom.
    It normally gives you free points and it massively reduces the risk that it gets spottet.

    Tip 1: Devolve any symptoms before all people have been infected, then mutate symptoms
    Tip 2: Save DNA throughout the game until all people are infected, then mutate symptoms such as total organ failure that increases lethality.
    Tip 3: After all people have been infected, use DNA points to get the mutation that allows for more mutations without using DNA points (Max level 3)
    Tip 4: Start in populated countries, such as China and India, especially China.

    Ok, as a physicist I need to know: what is the difference between architectures and engineers?

    RcE is going to Barbra Streisand effect architecture. His battle against it is just bringing more attention to it.

    RCE mentions curved glass walls and all I can think is Vdara death ray

    You know you can de-evolve to get points back right? Once the world is infected you should de-evolve transmission stuff and get the points back to increase lethality.

    I'm surprised he's playing as architecture. He could totally work towards curing architecture instead.

    Nooo! He didn't devolve the rash!
    This was on Casual wasn't it?
    He got into Greenland too easily and they reacted too slow.
    Most pathogens in the game can be beat on the hardest difficulties if you keep symptoms suppressed until you infect (almost) everyone. Don't hesitate to Devolve spicy symptoms.
    Also save Genetic Reshuffles for when the Cure progress starts.
