The locals are hostile

[Harry Mason]

How it should have started and ended...


Chris: "The locals are hostile I repeat the locals are hostile..."
Radio: "Roger firing nuclear missile all BSSA agents leave the impact area"

Why just nuke Racoon City? They could have called in nukes on Rockfort Island, Antartica, Leon's working for the Feds and can't call in military assistance, an extraction chopper and then have the place nuked?

it would have bean alot easier

I'm really glad you're not a world leader, Harry Mason. You can't just go around NUKING everything. A nuke was used on Raccoon City because it was a last resort. You think the President was like "HAY LET'S BOMB IT, HAXX"? I doubt it. An entire midwestern city was emaciated by a virus that turned living things into flesh-eating monsters. That's a lot different than ANY of the other scenarios in the series.

Also, who would even have the authority to call for a NUKE on a village in Africa?

[Bertha]

It wouldn't have made any sense to bomb the entire city that early. The BSAA hadn't fully figured out what was going on. All they thought was that there was an illegal weapons deal going down.Spoiler:

Hell...even Chris with his infinite wisdom and insight couldn't even put two and two together and realize that, even though Jill possibly might be alive, that Wesker would be too. Besides...the BSAA had been given the order to withdraw, thanks to Excella trying to pull strings.

In the end...I doubt the UN and the nations involved would have agreed to bombing the area unless they didn't have any other choice.

No kidding. Plus, if they bombed Kijuju than that would take away some of Raccoon City's thunder. I mean, the fact that the president had to call in a missile strike on American soil is what made it so devestating...but like everyone else said that was a last resort and they probably wouldn't play the "well, time to nuke it" card again.

Firing a nuke in a remote African region. Brilliant strategy :p

if things ever got out of hand they can always call in Leon, remember how he single handedly cut down Spain's population nearly 20 % ?

[Henry Spencer]

Are they going to quarantine the area now, or what? They just left it all open and who's to say all of the Majini and other B.O.Ws are dead? (Doubtful). Plothole.

[Mr. Spencer]

That's what made Raccoon City's destruction such a wildly controversial decision. Sure, an incident in an isolated region like Kijuju could be contained but something on the scope of Raccoon City would have major political reprecussions. It even brought the president down, and as such I'm not surprised that Umbrella went under. There was no way they could escape from that unscathed. Now Tricell on the other hand, they might be okay.

A nuclear strike on Kijuju was unnecessary, and I don't think it would be as serious as Raccoon City. I mean, think about it, a nuclear attack on American soil, killing over 100,000 American citizens. That's the RE universe equivalent of September 11th right there.

Nuke them?!! What are you thinking!? You want to start WWIII? No disrespect but we might as well Nuke all Africa while they're at it!!

Same can be said for RE4. Shit could still be roaming the Spanish countryside for all we know.

I would just assume they called in a quarantine and special task forces to contain and eliminate them.

Unless the heroes killed them all initially anyway. Which I find a funny thought.

Yeah, you're right about that. I forgot RE4 did that too. You can just chalk it up to the fact that I'm too damn picky.

[hellrizer]

This can not end well...

[Alexia_Ashford]

I chalk it up to the fact that I don't think many of us paid much attention to the technicalities of RE4's story because the entire thing was a complete joke. It is, of course, very forgettable.

And yeah, nuking Africa = bad idea. It'd cause a racial uproar and it just couldn't be done. You know, I think British Gas are making a new mutagenic virus. I might try and get their HQ nuked too. Let's nuke the world!

[hellrizer]

OH SHIT!! World domination!!

[Beanovsky Durst]

"Nuke-ing" the world is not fun. Spreading Uroboros all over the world; now that's what I'm talking about.
