South Zagoria is being overrun in a massive surprise attack conducted using the cover of a Sunday night when the Christian country is sleeping or otherwise indoors. You are the only one who can alert the sleeping Chernarus and avert total disaster for the CDF and the country's population. This is the prologue and a proof-of-concept mission made by yours truly to a COOP series that is conceived by Zipper5 and me.
Requirements:
Arma 2
Installation:
Put the pbo file into your ArmA 2\MPMissions folder.
First 2 times I played the game I didn't have any weapons (I think this is a bug?), I tried running at the radio tower like 20 zombies growling behind me. I got to the yard where the radio tower is, tried to look for some shelter or place where I should go but the zombies surrounded me and then I died.
Tried again. By looking at the map precisely I figured out it was the tower itself I had to enter. By gathering all the zombies around the radio tower yard behind me by running around first I hoped to buy some time just enough to enter the tower in one piece. Well, I succeeded but once I opened the door and rushed inside a zombie slashed me dead lurking inside the tower. They are everywhere!
Tried for the third time. This time I got a shotgun and a pistol, that's more like it! This time I had a better plan though, involving the UAZ I had at the start point. I ran at the tower and back, again, about 20 zombies drooling behind me. Then I quickly ran back to the start point and hopped inside the UAZ and tried ramming the zombies down running in a single blob. Unfortunately I managed only to kill 5-8 of them until the fuel ran out. I disembarked and started shooting at the 10+ zombies left. Emptied the whole cartridge chamber with the shotgun and got only 1 zombie down. Then I was eaten alive. The shotgun was like a pee shooter against these creatures.
4th go. I ran at the tower yard and back again trying to lure as much zombies behind me as possible. Took the UAZ and then just drove back at the tower yard leaving a butt load of zombies at the start point way behind me, only to find out there are like 10 more zombies still standing around at the tower. Well, disembarked and tried entering the tower while shooting the zombies in the way, still failing. I died trying to open the tower door.
I guess this is one of those by-the-skin-of-my-teeth kind of missions. Haven't figured out yet how to complete the first task. Very scary mission too.
Oh, and through the mission I had a script error repeating itself. This is from the .rpt file: Spoiler:
Error in expression <removeBackpack _zombie>
Error position: <removeBackpack _zombie>
Error Undefined variable in expression: removebackpack
Error in expression <removeBackpack _zombie>
Error position: <_zombie>
Error Missing ;
I'm running the original Arma 2 with a few addons.
Single Scenario SP/MP Dynamic Campaign for Arma 2: Combined Operations
I just finished Amnesia: The dark descent so my nerves did not really need this, when i saw the first zombie i emptied the shotgun clips trying to hit him(my nerves are that shattered yes), then i found out the makarov was very accurate thanks to your kewl script. Still havent managed to finish it yet, but awesome experience so far. And no addons required
The missing weapon thing isn't supposed to happen. Can't say for sure whether it's the addons you're running or a flaw in the scripts. Either way, I resorted to adding the stuff the old fashioned way without a script so it might be more resistant to errors.

Looks like I put an OA command into an A2 mission, my bad! It's fixed in the 1.01 version that I just uploaded.
Played the 1.01 version to the end, finished it on the first try. Basically the idea isn't to try to kill all the zombies: you ain't got enough bullets for that. The idea is to RUUUNNNN.
I particularly liked the zombie who appeared behind the door when you got to the top of the tower Although there was another zombie on the top of the ladder, but it just died by itself for some reason when I climbed over it? Oh well.
Love the Thief zombie sounds: the creepiest zombie moans in any game, ever. Good job!
