There are many possible explanations for the virus, but we can assume that the virus was cultivated in a lab, and most likely used for biological weapons, which can explain the tickers. The tickets aren't up crew, they were weaponized against the enemies of the buyers of this weapon. When the tickers infected the enemies, regular enemies become zombies, snipers become edgars, assassins became leapers, and strongmen bodyguards became brutes. Borrowing from previous virus lores, the digger was created when miners were trapped in a mine, and one by one getting infected by this virus. We will assume the companies research facilities for this virus was in a western country, North America or Europe. The virus breached containment in one of their labs, and army containment units came in to cleanup, equipped with hazmat suits, and flamethrowers for mass coverup, and to contain the situation. The virus eventually evolved against the threat, and created the elemental, burning the containment unit personnel alive. The electric elemental was created after these elementals that were injured used powerlines to heal themselves, creating electricals. When the pilot in Campfire Chaos says, "Buckle up bois. We're heading to Miami," we can infer 1. Campfire chaos takes place outside of Florida, and 2. Miami must be a safe haven, or else why would the pilot go there. We can be assured that parts of the US Air Force survived the apocalypse, with infrastructure in tact's, because survivors can call in air strikes, with F22 fighters that only the US AF has. Some parts of civilization still exist because the helicopter rescues, and those require infastructure. The subways are automated, so don't care about those. Some US must still exist because Protect the President, and the time limit it has. The virus must have been starved off of food and survivors to infect, causing the virus to all but die down. The survivors, after realizing this, quickly splits into factions, fighting over resources by parties they created during the apocalypse. Quickly, even the parties fell apart, which creates a free for all and brawls and melee smashes. Finally, some survivors had enough, and created a faction to restore society. But what happened were 2 factions, the Alliance and the Federation, who both went to war with each other. We can explain Undead Battleground as bickering survivors during the apocalypse.

So, what do you think about this lore?
