The hellstorm of lead rained down on survivor and infected alike; cars backed up and slammed into one other to try and escape. One car took too many hits to the engine and suddenly exploded, sending shrapnel flying and setting fire to the occupants inside.
Cars don't just explode. Even Tyler Hoover's F355 didn't explode when it literally caught on fire. My brother's Mazda 3 didn't explode when it was on fire, and my uncle's old Silverado didn't explode when it was on fire. Cars aren't really explosive. Like at all.
He didn’t know, but he didn’t like it. He had a full magazine, fifteen 9mm parabellum rounds to send flying into this… thing , that’s all it was.
Aah, yes, 9mm. The round was developed in the early 1900s for George Luger's autoloading handgun, the P-08 Luger. The company's motto at the time was the Latin phrase Si vis pacem, para bellum, which translates to "if you seek peace, prepare for war." So really, the round is called 9mm "prepare for war." I just thought that was interesting.
Dee aimed his beretta down the hall and fired once more, his wrist aching slightly from the constant firing of the powerful 9mm round. He dragged an unconscious Lyra like she had done him down the hall, blood covering his entire shirt and part of his face from the fights. His eyes were wide and set in a glare at the infected who were currently giving chase after him and the mare who in her still injured state was panicking.
The 9mm isn't really that powerful. I mean, it can be snappy in lightweight subcompact handguns designed for concealment, but the Beretta 92 is a large, full steel handgun, and is known for it's impeccable reliability, due to it's open slide, great accuracy, due to the non-tilting nature of the barrel, and soft recoil, due to the weight of the gun.
With the massive naval presence they used the word got out relatively quickly, and communications weren't cut on the island. Hell at the end of the game theres news anchors talking about Banoi and what happened.
11416995 100% agreed. Firing even a smaller caliber pistol round like a 9mm is a Herculean task when you are completely exhausted, your muscles are totally taxed out and they are barely even able to move your own body.
You can pretty much just completely forget about you firing larger caliber handguns like a .357 Magnum or a .45, and firing 5.56, 30-30, .300 Magnum, 45-70 Gov., or 7.62 x 54 caliber rifles is pretty much impossible in such a state. Not unless you want to wind up being knocked on your ass and possibly end up breaking something anyway.
Take it from someone who has gone hunting before and had his happy ass owned by his gun. Because he was dead tired from walking around all day looking for game, and wasn't quite prepared to deal with the recoil from a harder kicking firearm; like a 12 gauge semi-auto Remington shotgun or a 30-30 Winchester Lever Action rifle.
About the only things that might not kick your ass in such a state is any of the .22 caliber rounds and the .17 HMR caliber round. Seeing as they all are pretty small rounds and the recoil you feel from firing them is pretty minimal, versus all of the other rounds that I mentioned.
Not yet! Dinky needs both of you! Good thing it's an island, delays the nuke

They never nuked Banoi in the game
9400379
I meant due to the fact it's an Island, thus little concern the Zombies can spread
9400604
But they really shouldve
9400940
And who? Such a little island can have a nuke and I doubt the news spread outside.

With the massive naval presence they used the word got out relatively quickly, and communications weren't cut on the island. Hell at the end of the game theres news anchors talking about Banoi and what happened.
9400955
I see. Still, might take time
9400957
Naturally, but its a guarantee that word will get out
9400966
Yes, hopefully when Dinky is safe
9400984
What I REALLY want to know, is what Derpy will do with the explosives
9401767
Better ends well

I just don't know what went wrong!
If wonder if Derpy will run into Ryder or not
You monster.
How could you do that to derpy?
Liking the story so far, one thing though bro.
"his wrist aching slightly from the constant firing of the powerful 9mm round."
Nine mil has damn near no recoil, it's like getting slapped on the hand with a child's birthday napkin.

I've fired 9mm before, yea, but you gotta remember he's been hauling over 100+lbs of dead weight and fighting constantly, my man's exhausted
