Only had enough time to read the first chapter
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fun read!
am i the only one who loves this?
ReplyDeleteUgh... not more zombies.
ReplyDeleteI'm really tired of zombies, no matter how well they may be written.
Nothing personal but I'll pass on this for now.
I DREW DEMPSEY AND THE CREW AS PONIES!!!! PLEASE, USE THEM AS THE PICTURE COVER!!!
ReplyDelete>4 people
ReplyDelete>not l4d
>lost interest
I like cod but really...
I found this to be fun read. Don't pass on it so quick because its COD

ReplyDeleteThis was a great read. I liked the connections.
ReplyDeleteAlso people, don't pass on it because it is cod...

ReplyDeleteMore like Zalgofied.
Really, guys? Don't ignore it because it's CoD. I'm not a big fan either, but I'll be damned straight to the Everfree Forest if the Zombies characters aren't somehow awesome. This is a pretty cool story, and besides, L4D will be around soon enough. We already have a crossover with House; it's not too far-fetched.

Listen to that guy, I love the zombies. Can't wait for the new map this tues too. But on topic, nice story. Only read chapter one but can't wait to read the rest.
Takeo + AJ = lol
ReplyDeleteHoly fucknut, I hope The Darkest One reads this.
ReplyDeleteI FRIGGIN' love CoD Zombies. It's like, my favourite thing in the world. That and ponies.
So, when I saw a zombie mode/pony crossover...
Thank you, Ghost of Perdition, for the most mind-bending orgasm I've ever had.
Author here.
ReplyDeleteWow, I did not expect you guys to enjoy it this much lol. I'm glad you guys liked it so far. I won't disappoint everyone!
Love the story so far ..........just one thing
ReplyDeleteWhile I appreciate keeping the story focused on a single character after the initial chapters ,you have ..........how to put this?
fallen in love with TaK , all the other characters have their classic one dimensional personalities(well translated into the universe if I do say) except for Tak who is turning into the protagonist. Now I will never fault a Fanfic writer on taking creative leaps with characters but you seem to go out of your way to make the audience like Tak. Now there is no shame in making a character more likable. Especially when all of the characters can be summed up by the word "psycho" well enough.But you must avoid favoritism . So far Tak has had a total of 0 negative moments with the ponies and every time he meets them their relationship only improves. While other Cod zombie characters all butt heads with their respective ponies teammates, Applejack seems to be falling for Tak in the middle of a zombie Apocalypse.The worst example of this is in the end of "beLIEfs" (Especially the fluttershy bit)where he has the entire cast fawning over him (somehow I expect this to end with him being turned into a pony). My advice is to dial back Tak a bit otherwise your golden on everything else. In end thought no matter what I say it's your story(And a damn good one at that) ,keep it that way no matter what.
--TO ALL THOSE READING FOR THE 7+8 UPDATE--
ReplyDeleteDo not let this story just pass by. Just because it has CoD characters does not mean it is all about CoD. It is about ponies, zombies, and killing them. After you get through the story a bit, you learn that there is more story that ties things together and provides reasoning into what's happening, thus making plot and direction.
Though I'll admit, the artist apparently doesn't like action scenes as he does a fairly negative job of describing them, for example where I have written out in my stories how a person would swing their arm over and down against a peron's head, then go on into a full length description of the battle step by step almost, this author tends to use simply explanations like "charging into battle" and "as they fight", so on and so forth.
There is comedy in it though, and the feeling you get with nostalgia and such, but I personally give the artist a 14/20. He could use some work on his skill no doubt, but the story is good so far.
My Suggestion: Put it up as a worthy read.
Wait, I just noticed...
ReplyDeleteWhy is Derpy standing there with the zombies? (she doesn't look zombified)
@Muffinsforever
ReplyDeleteObviously, she is fitting in without issue.
"The screams of the dead fill my heart with joy!
ReplyDeleteI didn't have the highest of hopes for this story, but it really was one of the best things I've read. Although it is very good, I think you should show the more human side to our human heroes. Right now you've got a chance to show a more tender side to Dempsey. Nikolai will be a difficult person to portray though, so perhaps it's best to keep him in his drunken state. 5/5 though, well written and the plot paces forwards at a steady rate.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even realize this was CoD characters. I started to read it because of zombies. A very great read. You are an amazing author. I can't wait to see more chapters. Even though I personally don't like CoD, I still will not pass on a great read like this one. I can't wait to see how their adventures will be like in Appleloosa with Braeburn.
ReplyDeleteThis is a comedy dude. It's like zombieland but with ponies. I love it. Only the conversations can be a little confusing. Other then that. It's perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is the best story i read on ED so far! Especially all the in game references from the characters. For once i thought the fog and Samantha laugh before dogs was suspenseful. I'm starting to love all the characters much more as the story progresses, even Nikolai. My least fav is Richtofen, though. I think he has a bigger motiv other than just saving equestria. I have played and loved zombies a lot, but i really never took notice to what character im playing as. Now this story has made me pay more attention to them. I cant wait for the next chapters.
ReplyDeleteCome to Richtofen my little ponies!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope the author incorporates the new technology from Call of the Dead into it. Not necessarily the characters (since they're random as hell) but the VR-11 and Scavenger would be a cool add-on.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT can not wait until next chapter. My favorite two things cod zombies + MLP FIM + great writer = best story ever i read
ReplyDeleteso when is the next chapter coming out? I REALLY love this. I can't wait till the next chapter comes out. :D
ReplyDeleteI should draw something related to this.
ReplyDeleteTakeo always was my favorite, the quiet guy with a cool attitude, a sense of duty and passion, with a dry but witty sense of humor. While he gets a lot of attention, it may be to compensate for the fact that in-game, everyone else seems to look down upon him.
Tank Dempsey, I can totally see him and Dash getting along well, perhaps him opening up to her. Gruff and bad-attitude aside, he's a good guy with a word of encouragement, and a thirst for victory.
I can only hope Nicolai doesn't kill Rarity. He seems like the kind that would. He's hilarious as a drunk, humor through the roof, but little depth and manners in his intoxication. I love him anyway.
Richtofen... He scares me. D:
This is properly one of the most awesome fanfics I have read, not calling all the other stories bad, but this one just rule.
ReplyDeleteI loved every second of it. infact Cod made a bit of it funnier for me and brought me reading longer
ReplyDeletesaw pic: awesome, zombie story.
ReplyDeletesaw quartet of zombie slayers: AWESOME L4D in Ponyville!
saw call of duty: AWESO-wait... what? no L4d? D:
read story: oh hey, its not about L4D, but its still prety good.
.
overall: COOL STORY BRO! :D
Im reading this for the lolz. Crossovers like this make me laugh. Not At the author But With the Author so to speak.
ReplyDeleteyou know the 9 chapter is out.
ReplyDelete@ismbof
ReplyDeletewhere?

ReplyDelete@AnonymousJust click the link and there you go. Chapter 9 is the last chapter.
ReplyDeleteI'M STILL WAITING FOR THE FUCKING EPIC BATTLE AT APPLEPALOOZA SIR "PLAGUE UPON MAN"!!!
jk. He can take his time. I just sure hope he hasn't given up on this.
I certainly hope this story hasn't been abandoned. i couldn't care less about Call of Duty (the games), but this story is great! It took me FOREVER to track it down though. This story, Cupcakes, Somewhere only We Know, and a handful of others are the VERY FIRST fanfics I ever read, when i was first getting into the fandom. I've been thinking about this one, hoping to see and update. I'm glad 9 is out, but I certainly hope that's not the last of it!
ReplyDelete@richfiles Don't worry. On his fanfic user page it shows the progress on his stories. He's still working on his stories. But ascend through darkness is only 20% done! ToT
ReplyDeleteWoot! I like the sound of that!
ReplyDeleteRichtofen is by far my favorite character in moon quote
ReplyDelete"Their pain is so erotic aggghh
By god i gust finished it in one sitting, you combined the elements of the game and the elements of my little pony absolutely perfectly creating an amazing medley.
ReplyDeleteThe story in its action scenes sent a shot of adrenaline in me, just like when i am playing nazi zombies, i honestly wouldnt be surprised if the mystery box showed up in appleloosa
Though i still think theres one dog left waiting to drop a max ammo
7/5 keep up the great work
Still hoping for more after chapter 9. I always had a close place in my heart for this story, being one of the first I've ever read.
ReplyDeleteFunny how everyone is a zombie pony except Derpy shes like hi!
ReplyDeleteI'm still coming back here! :D Still love this fic! Also, it's a little late, but chapters 10 - 11 (Operation Overlord pt1 & pt2) are out now!
