The sad part is as you go along there are more zombies and less civilians.
yea it is sad because he is going through the city and the city is where most infections are.
@@grimreaper2021 mhm. And the military also kills the civilians to stop them from getting to the exit
Yeah, sheesh-
@@vesnabernjak-ord8674 the military is a wrongen
more points!! awesome
I've always thought the logic behind you continuing after your car blows up is that the runs are happening inside your head so you're preparing your car. Don kinda hints at that with his commentary on the upgrade screen
Exactly what I thought
This man has superpowers, he just knows, he drove for so long while having to deal with hell, and made to i dunno where FIRST TRY

Can we take a minute to thank whoever made this masterpiece for putting it on newgrounds? I mean we wouldn’t be able to play it at this very moment if he didn’t…
Dang, he’s really narcissistic then lol
“The ENTIRE government is gonna be after ME.”
I can only imagine him putting the middle finger out the window and the radio just goes "he's flicking us off sir"
Perfection
"Shoot that bastard!"
"WHAT?!oh thats it!send 69 ballistic missiles in that vehicle!"
The reason the military couldn’t stop the zombies is because they decided to use all of there forces on this one car 😂
all fax no printer
Actually it's good that they did imagine if the car is infected and escaped it going infected other cities
@@9tnb That doesnt mean that they should concentrate their forces on the car instead of the zombies that are attacking civilians.
@@chiefkeefgaming2005 ye
@@chiefkeefgaming2005 I think they only did that in the highway
“The target is approaching. We have a visual on his front plate.”
But there’s a metal reinforcement on his front plate...
Back plate
@@WarriorPNG The military guy said “We have a visual on his front plate.”

Lol nice
also , theres not even a white square for where the plate is , so how exactly did he see something that isn't even nearby him?
My brother: *years of effort to beat China town*
Mark: 40 minutes should be good
Bruh
China town is easy for me
It took me about 10 minutes
How much will it take me to beat china town, since i dont have the gaem yet
For everyone that says it's not that hard it's my brother so shush ppl
This dude is a fucking legend. He was able to escape the city, in a battle prepared sports car, pancaking zombies while singlehandedly defeating the entire fucking military.
This man and Gordon Freeman are the only two regular guys in gaming to have the title of "defeated the entire fucking military".
@@casulskrrub6423 Tbf John was defeating a weakened military due to dying soldiers and zombies, not any less impressive but Gordon is still more powerful lmao
@@DwayneTheSquidJohnson Some people underestimate gordons HEV suit
@@DwayneTheSquidJohnsonThe same can be said for Gordon freeman. John and Gordon were fighting two different armies, the military and zombies/aliens. The military were both weakened by the other party, and John/Gordon weren’t helping the case.
Regardless, they both proved to be enough of a threat that the military made efforts to stop them.
bro when he sees an a-10: *cries*
"The city is under quarantine."
JonTron in the background: "That one didn't age quite so well."
man this game looks fun. hope that by the time were in a global pandemic next year ill be able to play it while stuck inside, and before flash shuts down.
XD
general: let him though military: ok is still shooting him*
They're all secretly storm troopers.
Proq to be fair it is a direct clean headshot at point blank range
@@emlynselene1096 no they have good accuracy but
They shoot you instead of the zombies
Soldier: he can’t see me, I’m in cover and ready to strike
Mark: I can see you, I have perception of the road!
[30 seconds go by]
Mark: oh no! I didn’t see him.
The Soilders do realize that they are still on the radio right?
So Mark can just avoid them and their attacks.
But I would also not be able to see them if I was too focused on the road zombies.
Honestly if flash was still a thing, I would love this game.
Look up Flashpoint, by Blue Maxima.
@@Dachimotsu what that?
@@BigJackMack It's an enormous collection of hundreds of thousands of flash games/animations, all playable within the same program.
BlueMaxima also has another program called Kahvibreak, which is a gigantic collection of java-based mobile games.
@@Dachimotsu where i get thiz?
@@BigJackMack You can find it just by googling it.
It’s cool how the mountain in the background gradually comes into view as the game progresses…
It’s a nice little detail.
did anybody else notice this highway had shopping carts on it
Driver: why is there a dude driving a cart?
Cart guy : *its got great gas mileage*
You never noticed the homeless sleeping in carts?
Theres no turnoffs plus traffic aint as bad as in Chicago
Fortnite

Carts being rammed by mark: SKIRT SKIRTTTTT
“ prepared to intercept and neutralise.”
Mark: WhY CaN’t wE Be fRiEnDs
@Jasmine Bassett Remember it's a mustang destroying their defences, and not killing that many zombies.
@@cheetah1171 sure over 200 is *"not that many"*
Mark probably never wanted to be f r i e n d s,
So sad
Is a reference for final destination 4 the bad movie to the death of carter
@@Am_Cookie2436 8 million people live in new york city, a single city
if we estimate the average amount of people to be in a single city as 500,000
then he only killed 0.04% of the zombies in that city
that's not that many
in fact, it's not even the population of my home town, and my town is tiny af, not even listed on google maps unless you zoom in enough
Nostalgia at its peak. I remember playing Road of The Dead on my Dad's Laptop, my Dad wouldn't let me download anything on his laptop so all the games that I played were mostly Flash Online Games. Ah, the good old days.
I like to believe that instead of the expected respawn style of video games. Creaseman is imagining everything before he actually heads out and the run that gets you out is the run that crease man makes
General: "The evolved ones are strong."
Evolved Zombie dies to one pistol shot, but survives nuke.
there alpha mutants
Nothing can survive a point blank shot to the head. But people can survive nukes.
@@Demicleas The mutants are immune radiation
like cockroaches
can survive nukes but damn no help against flip flops
@@user-vc8lu9eb1l yes finally a real living proof how a weak thing can survive against nukes

you can still play flash games by setting your date to 2020 or 2019, only if you have flash installed though
1:13
Mark: Now you see, some shit's going down in the city. There happens to be a zombo attack.
That's funny
For me, the loss of Flash makes me enjoy these videos even more. Especially since you can tell Mark really loves playing these games.
John creasman alone with his pistol, can beat them.
Soldier using automatic: Difficult to kill an zombie
Johnny: 1 hit just using a pistol
Soldiers had to shoot from afar while Johnny shot them from 1 foot away.
John was using a .500 magnum revolver, in other words he is firing a round designed to kill elephants
some guy nah. He’s using the Heavy Revolver MkII
@AurumPlay yeah I have fired one before and I have sprained my arm from doing so(I was firing with both hands) this means that John has the forearms of a God to fire that thing with one hand
@@trashmann1971 hes a mechanic, i think his forearms are used to heavy loads.
the zombies when mark shoots them: OH GOD IM DIEING
Zombies to the nuke: meh.
Tis but a scratch
Nukes nah fam I drink that
The city is the nukes ground zero. The zombies would be vaporized by the shear kinetic energy expelled. They can ingest all the radiation they want.
It because there already radiated
Plot twist: the zombies did evaporate, the device using to see how many zombies there were was broken.
“Why can’t we be friends , oh shit” gets me every time 🤣🤣🤣
“Why cant we be friends? Why cant we be fr- Oh frick.”

The logic is that he is somehow thinking forward and planning his route before he actually goes out.
I assume this because of what he says after you die.
Which is?
@@dnddude9652 Stuff like "The military will get in my way"
"shoot that bastard!"
"But sir he has swag"
Imagine you're about to risk your life to complete the mission and suddenly a radio unmutes and you hear someone mocking you 31:31

advanced, super-mutated zombies: *dies with one shot from a dude who's busy driving a car*
Citezen: sees guy driving 200-240 mph during a zombie apocolyps, runs in front hoping he will stop.
Zombie: Were Just Twins Of Y'know Like 39847839234878920348783984576 Zombies Cuz Were All THE SAME
Fuck those mother fucking zombies!
Maybe it's because of the range, or the girls he's using could be custom made, thereby, if he knows what he's doing, making it more powerful, or the minutes lost their plot armor once they jump on the car. But can we talk for a minute that the outbreak wouldn't have been nearly as bad if this douche didn't decide to go through with his road trip plan on the highway to hell.
@@mrtrolly4184 oh, umm... That meant to say guns. I use scroll-to-text, so sometimes it writes something different than what I want it to.

It’s ironic how the fire truck is on fire
This game is underrated.. wish many people played this game
Are we gonna question the fact that there’s a nearly endless freeway that has only a single exit and entrance?
I guess the devs didn't think about that
I think it's on a bridge

Car:running over solider and zombies

The fact that Mark wants to be friends with the people literally blasting him out of the highway is hilarious.
I love how in this game, the main priority soldiers have in a zombie apocalypse, is a car.
Entire city of zombies: *exist*
*One guy in a car*
“KILL HIM! KILL HIM NOW!”
In the beginning they did say that quote, "All citizens trying to escape the city will be shot on sight."
Military: ho you approach me? Instead of running away your heading twords me?
@@Thatoctaneboi guy in beginning: i can't beat the shit of you without coming closer
The military was trying to kill him tho
Fish Po0kins yeah because they didn’t know if he was infected or not and they don’t wanna risk it so their killing him we know he’s not infected but if he was and got out that would cause it to spread

nostalgia hits diffirently.
All zombie types explained:
Normal zombies: Normal human beings who have turned into zombies from the disease. Easiest to kill.
Brutes:Stronger human beings which shows some types of mutation. Harder to kill and can take more damage.
Zombie soldiers:Military personell who have became zombies after they were overrun in the checkpoints. Hardest to kill because of there helmet and bulletproof vest.
Ravagers:Named that because of there appearance. People who were murdered, devoured, then turned into zombies. You can see it because there organs are showing.
Mutants and alpha mutants:One of the strongest zombies in the road of the dead universe. Unknown how they were created, but a military personnel claimed that he saw a normal zombie tear off there skin, devour it, and thats how they were made.
Please tell me if i missed any, and thanks for reading!
Edit:I forgot to mention the alpha mutants. I am not completely sure how they are made, but they have a dark red skull to see the difference between them.
Mutants travel in packs to hunt down prey and alpha mutant as their leader.
For real? there's a a military personnel claimed that he saw a normal zombie tear off there skin, devour it
Fun fact: in the 2nd game this guy drove through outposts making the military fall faster. It didn’t help that the military wasted most of their helicopters on him. This guy basically made the military fall faster then it could’ve
I think what this game does so well is it manages to cram everything in perfectly. The story's not told through cut scenes (except for the intro and ending) it's told WHILE you're playing, and nothing interrupts your playing. And what you're playing feels fast and hectic but also totally fair and totally within your control if you know what you're doing. There's like, very little I can think of that stops the game from being engaging!
The pacing's really good too. Feels like everything they could have thought have to have as a mechanic was introduced at a good pace: spike traps, explosive charge traps, helicopters, military using different tactics, enhanced infected, etc, on top of all the stuff at the beginning. It's a small experience but it feels perfect for what it is.
I love the progressive tutorials, never a dull moment in the game!
It's triple A level game
Whenever people ask me how the heck the military gets overrun in zombie movies, I just direct them to this guy.
9:35 He's a FREAKING NOBODY!
That.. Fuckin' Nobody..

I cannot fully say how much of an inspiration and absolutely amazing of a game this is
I downloaded newground player, and I am replaying the game! God I forgot how much I loved this game!
I like how the military gets more and more determined to stop you the further you go. Also, it’s like they go more insane and corrupt.
I wouldn't say corrupt, more desperate. They don't want to do this, but they have too, they can't let the infection spread
@@ntfoperative9432 Meanwhile in Road of the dead 2 " This is happening In other cities!?" So l say the infection has already spead
Also isn’t it implied in the second that they made the virus?
@@ShinePaw101 They made the virus but the commander was arrogant and disregarded the tip of the head scientist to stop the "flatline operation"
@@ShinePaw101 I'm pretty sure the military scientists was testing out stuff with biological warfare or something (like super soldiers) but it leaked and created zombies instead

Maybe John hacked into the frequency.
It was revealed in the sequel that John stole an important broadcast.

OH MAN. I also spent ENTIRE DAYS on that game when I was younger... Wow. So good to see Mark likes it as well :D
Military logic: Instead of killing the mass hordes of zombies, let’s shoot at a car that is miles away from the exit to the city.
Also, instead of helping any survivors escape, let's just trap them all in the city and leave them to die
Well unless you want the entire world to be infected and all of humanity dies
Then that would be dumv

2 things
1: the military might have actually had this contained if it wasn’t for the protagonist
2: one shot with a random pistol to the head kills any zombie on the car, but a trained soldier with military grade weapons and ammunition can hardly kill a normal one. Nevertheless a whole nuke can’t

This general is about to learn the lesson that the military learns in every zombie apocalypse (from Last of Us and all of them): The many die, and the few you refused to help are gonna come back and give you some epic karma. In this, you either be willing to sacrifice yourself or make no sacrifice at all. Do not sacrifice others for others or others for yourself, because it is never worth it.
