    Darn, I missed the game.

    I'm not really in a group, but the Left For Dead forum i visit has a fairly active community and the mods set up a server and we try to organize fun, laid back, alltalk turned on games for non-annoying members. They do it for XBOX and PC. It's a nice break from the serious hardcore teams you get sometimes in random lobbies. TBH, some of them are horrible players, but its all good fun.

    SteamID: ColonBurns, i change my handle all the time though.

    I recommend PC not XBOX for anyone pondering the purchase, XBOX still hasnt updated or done a first patch.

    And if you guys are really nice I'll share my 2 smoker insta-kill spots with you (and no, its not NM rooftop). It always makes my team mad when I get the smoker on this level and try to get them all to run far ahead with me, they all want to do an immediate ambush in an obvious spot and I go to my spot because I dont want to respawn and not be the smoker. They stop being mad when I killz a player (50% they are just incapped, tho, I thibk the insta kill only works if they are low on health, although it may be the angle i pull, I really need to test this with live players)

    And BTW that ambush outside the elevator: if you move it over to their left, by the edge, you can knock them over the edge to hang if you blow up and they are too close. Gotta be careful though because that little room there has thin walls and they can shoot you through them if you dont go to other side or hide behind the pallet. You can also come from inside the elevator after they leave if you can distract them all in the front. This is assuming you don't have the tank, cuz you are right, for forklift in the elevator kills, especially if you can boom them first


    PS Boomer crouching is gosh darn funny as hell to behold

    As a hunter I miss all the time on NM 4 after the elevator and fall to my death. I actually hate being hunter the most, and reserve myself to either just running up and meleeing for 10 pts of damage if I can't find some fire to light myself aflame. Occassionally I'll get a 25 pt pounce, even better when im on fire, but 90% of the time I miss. I also like to play distraction and ping pong hop between walls and canyons, I'm actually better at that than landing a pounce, that way the other infected can hit them while they are trying to shoot me out of the sky

    Hunter is the twitch class of the infected. Half the challenge is flipping around and pouncing in a seperate direction if you miss them the frst time. Take me for example, I rarely hit on the first pounce but as long as I wasn't hit with a melee I can bounce around and severely confuse a survivor.

    While I am repositioning and essentially pouncing circles around him, maybe he panics shoots a teammate while trying to hit me. Hunter is my favorite right up there with boomer. As the boomer you're the architect of the ambush, nail them with bile and watch your teammates capitalize. That is insanely gratifying to me.

    Still haven't mastered the Smoker, getting better though.

    Just had a very narrow escape on Death Toll - we were all bleeding to death, but we got to the dock early so we all made it on to the boat. There was a brief moment where things looked doubtful for the guy playing as Louis when he got pounced by a hunter and mobbed by about 8 zombies, but we shot them off of him and so he ended up being OK.

    This was only on normal, but I tend to have a lot of trouble surviving the endings so it was an accomplishment for me at least.

    PS - this was also one of the first times that I was on a team that actually used the explosives well. Propane tanks, gas tanks, etc. They make everything a lot easier, not to mention more fun...
