Can directly Infect other people with their claws.Have suffered some form of transformation.For anyone who has become Infected, there is currently no cure. The virus is a biological contaminant, and the extent of its capabilities are unknown. See also: The Infected, Quarantine, Overdose, Cabin Fever, Black Lung, Ghost Town, Neptune, and NEMEXIS HQ. Special forces search for clues to the cause of the viral outbreak while NEMEXIS mercenaries are sent in to conceal all evidence of the company's involvement."Īlthough there was no formal accusation against the company, these incidents were enough to prompt the siege of NEMEXIS. As the body count rises, the government has ordered all civilians to evacuate immediately. "An experimental virus developed by NEXEXIS has accidentally been released into the city.
In an attempt to curb the Infection, the military has dispatched a special unit to eliminate the virus."Ī prototypical vaccine was soon developed, while a new, sudden outbreak occurred in a town within the US. Unfortunately, victims are still being infected rapidly, ravaging their surroundings-and leaving chaos and destruction in their wake. Wanting to maintain progress on the vaccine development, the Military responded immediately by seizing as many of the Infected as possible. Their negligence proved catastrophic one of the Infected escaped while it was being transferred to another lab area, allowing the virus to spread quickly outside of LAB 3. Stretched thin by their commitment to the vaccine development, employees at NEMEXIS began to get sloppy. "After the initial Quarantine lockdown, NEMEXIS Corp called for additional military backup to manage the quarantine of LAB 3 while they continued to conduct tests of their newly-developed vaccine on the Infected.
Though it is never directly stated, it has been hinted that NEMEXIS may have purposefully started the outbreak by increasing the dosage given to the first test subject. The research center has been shut down by the Automatic Quarantine System, and an infiltration mission by Special Forces has been called upon in order to retrieve the drug sample." Before the transmissions were abruptly terminated, they alluded to the remainder of the drug sample left intact in the research center. The cause of the accident has yet to be determined, but shortly thereafter, the local security response team sent transmissions warning of a severe physical threat and potential outbreak situation. When the final product was being prepared for mass production, the first and only surviving test subject had an abnormal and untested dosage enter their bloodstream. In a controversial step to boost mercenary morale, high ranking officers authorized development of a stamina drug using a promising new organic sample. "The physiological stress and fatigue caused by the ongoing war has left soldiers deserting in droves and showing a lack of respect for their superior officers. At the time of its conception, an ongoing war had negative effects on various mercenaries and soldiers around the world.
