How to win using the Necroa Virus on Normal difficulty + Video guide
By Sushi
This is the way I've found to be the best way to win with the Necroa Virus. Confirmed that it works on Brutal.
This guide is foolproof, which means it should work 100% if done correctly ( and with little luck ). I am always around to answer questions or help out if you get stuck.

Please like,favorite and share if it helped!

I HAVE NOW MADE A VIDEO SHOWING HOW TO BEAT IT MY WAY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUQrAAnjGDc&list=UUjZzUtvqtSbtiS5Cypreg7A <- Sorry for caps, easier for people to see the message ^-^
I even show what to do when the virus mutates badly

UPDATED - I have now put in TWO genes that are must have.
Check out my gene exploit guide, in case if you do not have certain genes.

Early game
In the early game, just focus on spreading your plague fast as you can. I usually start at India, which I also recommend to start off with. Focus on getting Saliva level 1 and 2 and rush transmission by water. After that, give points to the blood transmission, and then do transmission by air. Look at the screenshot if you're confused. Don't forget to use these specific abilities!
Genes to use
There is only one gene that I would highly recommend, and that is Creationist. All other ones are not that important.
I also recommend Metabolic Jump. It boosts the amount of points generated = easier win
Mid game
In mid game, after you've done early game tasks, just sit back and just farm DNA points. No need to use DNA points at all untill they are all infected
Endgame
Now, this is where we win. Just use the DNA points you've gathered and then upgrade the left side of the symptoms ( because they are cheaper ). This is how it should look like. After you've turned them into zombies, just wait untill you get more points. Just keep on making it severe as possible, and when most of the world is ♥♥♥♥♥♥, then spend DNA points on combat advantages ( for Z-Com ). Then you'll win without a sweat.
Win :)

The first guide to work for me! If anyone cares I used creatonist, metabolic jump, extrmophile and aerocyte. Left the last one blank cus I dont have anything for it.

Works. I only made 2 changes. I maxed out Cold Climate and got Genetic Hardening. Took a bit to kill everyone off, but I got it and then used my save with 10 infected people left to farm for genes.

Also, you want to get the corpses to reanimate, then reduce decay and increase Hordes/travelling. I found this way worked the best because they can attack the living infected people. Then, I used points to have my Hordes travel to Brazil (where the Z-Com was in my game). I made sure to get the Hundreds of thousands and then kept spamming hordes to Brazil to collapse the base.

I think you have to win as any infection couple of times, but easiest way to getting the genes is:
Save before winning -> win -> go to main menu -> load saved file -> repeat. This way you can unlock every gene in the game

How do you get the Creationist and Metabolic Jump?
