Problems w/ Shangri-La Time Period (UPDATED)

[Tac]

Imagine Dempsey has a quote, "HEY PLAYER! STOP TAKING MY QUOTES SERIOUSLY."

Then Richtofen replies, "So Dempsey you have the voices, too??"

Lol, so Richtofen is Illuminati, Nikolai might be, Takeo is obsessed with the emperor, and yet Dempsey has no psyche issues

Their outfits aren't going to change depending on the time period, the same guys who left Ascension and wound up in the room of CotD are going to Shangri-la. They suddenly wouldn't change their looks because they traveled back in time. I'd say they had enough time to heal/grow facial hair between the time in Ascension/Shangri-la and changed back into their normal clothes at some point.

EXACTLY! Teleporting to the past wouldn't change their clothes, which means that they had to be there before Ascension, and then changed clothes in Ascension. And with how fast the story moves, I honestly doubt they would have time to get rid of their gray hairs, appear younger, clean their clothes, fix injuries, and grow facial hair.

Unless the amount of time the characters stay on the map is longer than we think. In Ascension Takeo says "Dempsey wakes up in the world everyday" referring to his memory loss. But if he wakes up "everyday" that would mean he was able to sleep...

Can you link me to that quote or anything? In a vid, I wanna make sure that's factual before I break off of my theoiry

Great find, but IDK how they get to go to sleep, theories?

Do you mean like without dying? If so, then they probably set a watch.

[Monopoly Mac]

Or they make a crawler, tie it to a wall and then take a nap.

I kid I kid... Probably set a watch like this guy says.

[Tac]

Fair enough. That opens many doors to how long they stay. Remember the guy in Verruckt, John? He was sleeping when his partner came along and tried to kill him. So they stay places for a while maybe?

Yeah. Verruckt guys stayed there for a week, judging by the radios right? That is the only one we know for sure people stayed for awhile.

[Monopoly Mac]

So we know they stay in these maps for a little while. Does this open the door to any other theories?

Idk, but it could mean that they were in these maps awhile. From 1945- early 46, from the quotes.

Damn. But I doubt that they would have "rounds" so would a few people run laps solo while 1-2 slept?

[Monopoly Mac]

If you think about it, its really hard to apply the actual gameplay to real life. You walk into a glowing green skull and you have the power to kill any zombie with one blow lolz...

Well rounds could= days IRL. doubt it, they more than likely just respond to noise and signs of humans, etc.

[Tac]

Ok so if sleeping, the Zombies couldn't recognize them being there? Possibly. But I don't think they were in Verruckt that long, it's a concentration camp basically (I HAVE THE PROOF)

Yeah, no more than a week based on the radios. Concentration camp yes, but primarily for the insane of course.

[Monopoly Mac]

I wouldn't say round=day because of the Verruckt trailer. They go through all of that carnage and they say its finally over... Round two begins... So I'd say maybe an hour?

That might not even be the first day, or the last. In the trailer, theres only 3 people, so smokey died by then. could be like 3 rounds a day or something, IDK.

[dykeso]

doesn't call of the dead take place in 2013?

because on the cutscene is says ??/13

so the year is 13? get a pic soon...

Dude your way late to the party, I've posted that around already, check my time and location thread in my sig

Also, Smokey must have died before the trailer, but was there when playing? IDK, but I do remember there being a break in action and hes says it's only the beginning, so maybe they were sleeping and the first zombie infected Smokey, and it all started from there.

[dykeso]

yeah, that's where i kinda got it from,l and it takes ages too read them posts.... but i'm on it :)

[Tac]

Look, I don't want to sound like an asshole, but what do you mean that's where you got that from? You wouldn't be asking for a pic if you read my thread like you said you did and realized there is a pic already in it.

[dykeso]

never mind.... too confusing....
