RE: Digital virus Ideas....
So, judging by everything you guys posted let me make a list.

Digital Virus

Symptoms
Tier 1
Lag: The virus slows down low grade systems, slowing the cure (raises severity)
Random Deletion: The virus deletes random files, slowing the cure (raises severity)
Random copying: The virus copies random files into the computer, slowing the cure and increasing infectivity (raises severity)
Tier 2
Spam: The virus is capable of manipulating the victim's accounts, making spam and distributing the virus. (raises severity and infectivity)
Invisibility: The virus is almost invisible, making it harder to detect. (Lowers severity)
Overwriting: The virus overwrites files and insert dangerous data in them. Raises infectivity.
Tier 3
Random shutdowns: Virus causes electronics to shutdown without any warning. Might cause accidents and death. (highly raises severity and mortality)
Data stealing: The virus steals data. Slows the cure research (highly raises severity)
Tier 4
Self consciousness: The virus gains self consciousness... Is this the end of the world as we know it? (highly raises severity, interactivity and makes the cure research a total failure)
New tier 1
Hatred: The virus grows an uncontrollable hatred towards humans.
Berserk: makes electronics go violent towards humans (highly raises
severity)
Super intelligence: The virus is now super intelligent.
New tier 2
Cyborgs: The virus starts to fabricate basic cyborgs (highly raises severity and mortality)
New tier 3
Bullet proof Cyborgs are now bullet proof
Night vision Cyborgs can see on the night
Mass manufacturing: Cyborgs will manufacture even more cyborgs
Increased speed: Upgrades on the cyborgs' legs make them faster than humans
New tier 4
Weapons manufacturing: Cyborgs now manufacture their own weaponry
Self destruction: When killed, Cyborgs will explode
Increased intelligence: Cyborgs are now more intelligent, maybe even more than humans
Organization: Cyborgs will now organize in "Hunting groups"

Abilities
Antivirus invisibility 1 Basic level antiviruses will not detect the virus
Antivirus invisibility 2 High level antiviruses will not detect the virus

Infected package 1: Will send an infected package to a random computer on the selected country
Infected package 2: Will send several infected packages to several random computers in a country

(After "Self consciousness")

Meltdown The virus will cause nuclear meltdowns (Select a country in the map and then KABOOM)
Fast manufacturing: The cyborgs will manufacture other cyborgs faster for a few days in the selected country (Only after "Cyborgs" are bought)

Infectivity

Infiltration 1: Virus will now infiltrate basic level electronics, raising infectivity
  • Cellphones: The virus will infect basic cellphones
  • Pendrives: The virus will infect pendrives

Infiltration 2: Virus will now infiltrate medium level electronics, raising infectivity even more
  • Smart phones and tablets: The virus will infect smartphones and tablets
Infiltration 3: Virus will now infiltrate High level electronics, highly raising
infectivity
  • Gigantic breach: The virus will infect every single kind of electronics.

Extra information:

After "Self consciousness" is researched, the "AMO" (Anti-Machine Organization) will appear and they will act just like the Z-Con

Some achievements could be:

Not another reference: Kill Cohn Jonnor (The AMO's leader)
Again?: Nuclear meltdown in Russia
It wasn't us, we swear!: Get the "NSA made the virus" pop-up
Not so fast!: Get the "All diseases eradicated" pop-up

I just dont like the cyborg idea...My idea was of Nuclear Rockets,Planes,Orbitals,Medical Equipment,Trains,Phones,Chem plants,Nuke Plants etc etc all going berserk.....

I'm just new and read all posts (it was fun, now I'm gonna try to help)...

But, Your idea must slip in with Tier 4(Self-Consiousness will go whatever thing you said into berserk)

I really like more this idea than original! Unless by AMO, because every special plague would have their own things, and not make it analogous to the another one.

But I like the idea of a digital virus awakening deadly cyborgs. We would have zombies, cyborgs, mind-controllers worms, neanderthals... what can be next?

Maybe ghosts?

Hey!Are you reading my mind?A had an idea about a 'killing replicating radiowave plague' that would produce an analogue of 'ghosts' ))

RE: Digital virus Ideas....
And what about something like an electromagnetic-pulse? A global shutdown that makes human lack of electricity forever?

PD: Another idea. To assimilate the digital virus to the human, maybe after the digital virus gains super intelligence, it could produce macro-particles that infects human (through water, for example) and start to replace human components into an artificial system, making in that way the creation of cyborgs (because this game is about pathogens infecting people, not machines)

The EMP idea is cool,and it is realistic-just overcharging some electro-stations,and making cables explode from high-voltage,high-frequance impulse,creating an EMP-burst...
But the assimilation of humans is a bit too fanstic...
