Five years after the invasion, a small community in Mozambique is still calling for anyone who can hear them. There are machines inside the growth around the landed ship, and it is getting closer to their homes. I wanted to follow the people who survived Part 1. How do you find each other when the internet is gone? How do you rebuild anything when the land you need is slowly being taken over? This time we hear it from the survivors, through their radio calls, local broadcasts and the messages they manage to pass between settlements. Would you keep trying to defend your home, or leave before you know there is somewhere else to go?

omg, the largest population center was in Switzerland because of the large amount of survival bunkers built after ww2...
"Sorry about that. Our automated planetary reconfiguration devices were supposed to only alter Venus for our life forms. For some reason, the AI targeted your planet."
no way there's a sequel. this gonna be good food eating material
So the 2nd alien ship is the enemy of the fungus one. They arrived in mars and destroyed the fungus alien base and then went to other planets to asses the proliferation of the fungus one. They took almost 40 years to arrive after the fungus one so they probably were chasing the fungus aliens. So many questions I love it !
Thats creepy, I literally just watched the first and this one popped up immediately.
Thank you to everyone on discord who recorded voices for this one, massive thank you. If you want to join and appear as a voice in my next videos link in the description :) this one was a beast to make but all in all im happy with the result, lmk what you think, and lmk your ideas for part 3!
Absolute cinema! Now that the second civilization arrived, the stakes have never been higher. Can't wait for the third part!
dudeee the surviving human communities contacting eachother is such a feel good moment, its so beautiful lol
Interesting! Actually, something like this scenario where a second alien faction intervenes is not entirely silly. It's hard to hide the heat signature from an interstellar spacecraft. A second faction, even one related to the first may view the expansionist actions as a threat, or they may simply wish to preserve the biological diversity of the local cosmos. I really like the survival pockets and discussions. Far to often these map creators overlook the tenacity of humans to stubbornly survive. Humans are surprisingly good at digging in and hanging on when they start to organize. My only complaint is there's not enough resistance. Yes, most humans are dead and infrastructure decimated in the scenario here. At the same time, the alien machine fungus is still a physical substance. I assume it still follows the laws of physics. Therefore, it must have some limitations. Humans are incredibly clever. I'm sure we'd try to subject samples to every possible substance, radiation, temperature, treatment, explosive, or combination of the above to hunt out a weakness. Even if we couldn't destroy it maybe we could mess up a sample enough to get it to do unexpected things. Maybe unintentionally develop a counter-fungus that attempts to assimilate everything, including the existing fungus. Also, when those initial ships landed why weren't they immediately nuked? Even if we assume 99% of all nuclear weapons are damaged beyond repair, I assume we could cobble together a device or two. Doesn't even need a rocket, just a semitruck given how slow the initial ships seem to assimilate their surroundings. Anyway, great scenario. Question? What's happening to all the people fleeing the advancing fungus? Shouldn't there be waves upon waves of hungry, tired refugees fleeing just ahead of the fungus? It doesn't seem to move fast enough to overwhelm people, even on foot.
aliens playing cat and mouse with one another and earth being their playground is crazy
Simulate an existential crisis across the world where we discover (disclose) extradimensional beings have always been on earth. Would be so interesting to see see how religions respond and faith groups, political structures reconfigure.
Dude I watched your 1st video of this topic like 20 mins ago, this is Amazing !!!
WAKE UP! JACOPIST JUST POSTED THE ALIEN INVASION SEQUEL!!! 🔥🔥🔥
What a cliffhanger. Looking forward to see the next episode 😀 It's more exciting than all the alien invasion TV shows and movies of recent years.
someone needs to make this plot into a realistic movie. same timeframe, same amount of time elapsed, same everything. down to the most minuscule details. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels.
Good video. Make one about an ice-age apocalypse, where the Earth's temperature drops to alarming levels.
Part 3? “We fight back somehow”
Plot twist: the Protoss have arrived to eliminate the Zerg
Remember the guy on the community post who thought this was real😂
I just found this channel today and watched all of the simulation videos. And now I am blessed with another one minutes later.
