This brain deficiency issue stops them from moving as quickly and in some cases the Zombie can only crawl. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Characteristics<br \/>\n<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">They look like your stereotypical Zombie as they\u2019re the most simple form of the virus. A way to notice an 018 is distinct leg dragging as their limbs aren\u2019t fully functional. They have a pale complexion. They also have a distinct groan, meaning they\u2019re unable to sneak up on their targets. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Weaknesses<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Shooting a limb renders them almost useless. Traps, due to their unintelligent nature, work great.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><u><b>NMV-029<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Movement<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The 029 is the most advanced stage of the virus to our knowledge. The 029\u2019s high brain capacity means they\u2019re able to attack at speed. They can not form lactic acid, which ultimately means they have a significant amount of endurance meaning they\u2019ll never stop the chase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Characteristics<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">029\u2019s have fully functional limbs so have a complete running style, just like a human, meaning they\u2019re easily differentiated from an 018. The 029\u2019s due to their ability to feed possess a red\/orange complexion (this can differ upon how long the Zombie has been dead). 029\u2019s do let out a loud screech, but this is to just inform other Zombies that there is a human nearby. 029\u2019s do not let out a loud screech if they\u2019re perform a sneak attack on their victim. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Weaknesses<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Guns are needed against the 029\u2019s. If you shoot their legs off, they are more or less useless as their main advantage is their speed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><u><b>NMV 049<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Movement<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The 049\u2019s are suspect to day light due to a brain deficiency. Despite this, once they find themselves outside of contact from the sunlight they\u2019re extremely mobile, just like an 029. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif,Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Characteristics<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The 049\u2019s have fully functional limbs, just like the 029\u2019s, but instead possess a blue complexion. This pale blue complexion is due to lack of sunlight. A feature that makes the 049 so deadly is it\u2019s ability to see in the dark, like a nocturnal animal, and it possesses immense hearing. 049\u2019s, like the 029\u2019s, can make no noise if needed but let out a loud screech if they wish to alert other Zombies to their location. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><i>Weaknesses<\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">A strong bright light attached to the end of the weapon is enough to make the Zombie useless.
