Need Help finding a Ghost Town

[Rukus.]

Spot for Airsoft Zombie Event?

I am trying to plan a Zombie themed Airsoft event for the winter or fall. The location I'd like is a bunch of old, beat up buildings to hold up in and zombies to hide in. The only problem is that I can't find such an area that isn't populated. The closest is Katherine, a ghost town from the 20s. It would be perfect if there weren't a small, unknown number of residents there.

tl;dr can u guys help me pick a spot near bullhead city, az?

The problem with most ghost towns is that:

1)They're not truly "ghost" towns since inhabitants decided to stablish there.
2)They became national parks.
3)They're disaster zones.

Any better ideas then? I want a place where we could board up windows and such.

Truth is there must be just a few places like that in the world, let alone near your area.

I saw a video with a place like that in it, it was in Wisconsin. I can't seem to find the video though.

Could I get an admin to change the thread title to "Spot for Airsoft Zombie event?"

For stuff like this, you could wish you were in Russia.

True that.

The only thing I can think of would be to build mini houses with the people who are playing, go find a meadow in the middle of nowhere (making sure no vampires are hanging out around there) and put the mini houses around. That's unfortunatly the only thing your gana be able to do until the real zombie apocalypse occurs on the 21st of December, 2012.

Too bad you can't visit the Ukraine, To pripyat.. Within the city limits there was even an amusement park.

Entire CITY was abandoned after the Chernobyl Nuclear Power plant disaster. Pretty creepy stuff. a city forever in the Soviet era.

There are actually tours there now, as the radiation levels are low enough.. in most areas, that is.

It would be my literal DREAM to visit there. When I have the money, I 100% intend to.

Also, needless to say, I'm a HUGE fan of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game series. Especially the 3rd installment, Call of pripyat.

Pripyat would be perfect for that, and Russia has a lot of other abandonments, even military bases with huge radars and stuff like that.

That is creepy, but SWEET! I would go there if I had the money to.

Airsoft in Pripyat would be so win, but unfortunately I live in NW arizona...,I have a better idea, what about discontinued construction sites? Like projects that were started but lost funding?

Whole game including pripyat (From a fictional perspective of course).

Best RPG I've ever played. Best Post apocalyptic game I've ever played (Yes, it kicks the heck out of Fallout 3).. Particularly because of the extremely vast modding community.

If you play this though, I'd recommend playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl first. (As CoP is the sequel)



Sorry to be off topic. Just thought some people would be intrigued

The Katrina Ruins in New Orleans...They filmed that show 'The Colony" There

Is there a local outdoor paintball arena you can play at?

There is one about hour and half from where I live and it's pretty complete in terms of fake buildings and stuff..

 

[Rukus.]

There is several in Vegas, but they're indoor and meant for tournament paintball play. There used to be one in Kingman, but its closed till 2011. After that theres only Pheonix, which is 4 and a half hours away/ Thats 8 hours round trip.

Also, can we please not make this thread about STALKER.

I am pretty sure this was a setting in COD 4 Modern Warfare as well. Which had the best multiplayer map "Bloc"

Anyone got any other ideas? Also, I found what I was talking about earlier. I'd like an area like the one featured in this video.
