Re: Left 4 Dead
We were only playing a campaign on advanced. This guy...he would be "OH #*%& THERES SO MANY OF THEM! WATCH OUT ONE BEHIND YOU OH MY GOD OH MY GOD THERE EVERYWHERE!"
He was so into it I just presumed he didnt realise that once you died you could be found again. Wouldn't surprise me if he stopped playing forever, cause he died once.
Re: Left 4 Dead
Not to mention "Jesus Christ, an entire city must have been infected!" He sort of reminded me of the Marine from Aliens who goes crazy half way through the movie. I half expected him to start crying and screaming " oh @#$%, @#$% @#$% @#$% @#$%... We're screwed, we're finished ... there's too many of those @#$%ing things ... GAME OVER! GAME OVER, MAN!"
Over all, though, that was a pretty good campaign. That's the first time I've survived Blood Harvest with all four of the survivors, and the first time I've survived it on advanced.
The beginning of the final chapter though, with the bot who wouldn't get back in the safe house so we could safely wait for the idle player ...

Ah well, we got away, but that lag made me miss the molotov on the second tank.
I hate being in australia.

Re: Left 4 Dead
This is actually pretty stupid, but funny at the same time.
Putz the Friendly Tank
I wouldn't do that in a versus match because it's obnoxious, but I can't help laughing when I see this.

Re: Left 4 Dead
I just had a great lag verus where as i smoked someone it would go id walk away to get in position then it would suddenly teleport me to the nearest survivor and smoke them....

Re: Left 4 Dead
We couldn't use the Jesus Room but that didn't stop us!
If you guys are having trouble figuring out Untouchables, hit one of us on Steam and we'll give you the run-down of how we got it. It took about 4 tries, each taking anywhere from 10-15 min each. If you use the "god rock" on Death Toll like we did, here's a few tips.
-You need someone with a sniper rifle watching the water for smokers. No exceptions.
-Control your fire. Friendly Fire will ruin the achievement. Get in a spot and don't move unless you HAVE to.
-If you have to, absolutely have to, move then don't move in front of people.
-The Tank will throw rocks at you, but you can shoot the rocks and break them mid air. Take Sniper rifles and MGs for this purpose.
-After the second tank a hunter loves to spawn at the boat house, by the time you get to the dock he will be in position to pounce the person bring up the rear. You have to stay close, be ready for this pounce.
-As the boat is pulling up, cover the entrance to the dock with 2 Molotovs. As long as they burn, you don't need to worry. Spam melee on each other to counter a surprise smoker.
-DO NOT SHOOT ONCE THE BOAT ARRIVES. Weapon control is key, refer to the third tip.

Re: Left 4 Dead
I just had a pretty good game of versus: our team stayed intact the whole time, though the other team was raging so intensely they most have gone through at least 20 different players through the course of the game. They finally all left at the last level. But we got the victory screen all the same and it was at the second half of the last chapter, so it wasn't such a big deal.
Re: Left 4 Dead
I ahte those matches
last night, after monk logged.
NJS CR and I played a game where we were neck and neck till the final level where they pulled ahead. Man monk we sure missed you for that one.

Re: Left 4 Dead
You shoulda sent me an invite. I was done eating after like 15 min lol.

360 anyone? Anyone?

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: Left 4 Dead
pfft. I played it on the 360. Terrible. You'd have to have no life and be a god with it to play on expert. Plus no patches, so glitches etc.
Re: Left 4 Dead
If you've got Gears 2 for 360 hit up omgk1tt3ns on Live, that's me (what is it with animals and my online tags?). I'm always up for Horde matches.
Re: Left 4 Dead
Sorry for double post:
I'm going for Akimbo Assassin and due to my own stubbornness I refuse to play singleplayer or do it on Normal. I've gotten close twice now, went with a group on Advanced and gotten to the Finale but the servers keep crashing right as I'm about to get it.
If anyone here is interested in a legit campaign game and won't mind me sticking to pistols then give me a shout on steam. I've only got 10 more achievements to go and i'll have them all.
Re: Left 4 Dead
servers kept crashing for you too? I thought it was just CR NJS and I

They've been particularly unstable today, dunno what's going on.

Re: Left 4 Dead
I play it on 360, and there are patches....
my gamertag is ferret2005
Re: Left 4 Dead
Well, I dont own a 360.
Look up Theron. or CptTheron, I'm not sure.
Hes a good bloke, plus he has L4D on it, not me.
Re: Left 4 Dead
melee recharge woohoo.
guess is shoulda got my expert achievements back before all the updates, cuz hordes are gonna kill now (unless the timer is just for versus)
Baby Quit Your Cryin' Put Your Clown Britches On!!!
Re: Left 4 Dead
The timer is just for versus. All the whining about how powerful melee was finally got Valve to nerf it. Can't say I'm surprised.
Re: Left 4 Dead
Really? I havenet meleed as a survivor yet.
Must play again tonight then.
Re: Left 4 Dead
theres a recharge every 5 melees. So its kind of like pre-emptive reloading in downtime now....used up 3 melees, got a few seconds, use up 2 more to stay fresh.
It really doesnt affect corner camping from what I've seen, but its easier to pounce as a hunter, especially if you wait until they are smacking around horde.
And the booms. Oh the booms. Brutality. I played 3 games this morning and got 2500+ points per game thanks to booms, obviously from people who had no idea of the nerf. Get now while the gettins good.
People will get used to it. Personally I'm considering changing my weapon of choice.

Re: Left 4 Dead
Shotties are even more useful now.
You gotta line up the shots, know the mechanics of bullet pentration.
Hunters get annyoed at me when I have the AR and I shoot through a wall and kill them on my team mate. Bullets that penetrate something don't harm team mates.
Re: Left 4 Dead
The melee nerf in versus made certain sections much harder. The elevator in No Mercy, for instance, feels almost impossible to get through now. I think I made it through once or twice, but only barely. It's easier to get bogged down. The very ends of the levels, also, are very difficult to get through because running out in the open is much harder than it used to be. You can't just swat all the Zombies away from you anymore.
I've gradually learned to conserve melee, but I get the feeling a lot of the time that some of my teammates haven't noticed the change yet, and so are now much more likely to get separated in places like the elevator. Over all, though, I do like it a lot - it's so much easier to get people as the hunter and the smoker now, because the survivors can't put up an invincible wall of melee blocking anymore. Well, maybe they can, but doing so will actually require some degree of planning and teamwork now.

Re: Left 4 Dead
Finally broke down and bought this today. I'll be super-noobing it some later tonight, after I goof off with some solo; my steam ID is the obvious 'ramsesiicp.'

Re: Left 4 Dead
rotfl, I ate it pretty laughably. The timing is the thing, I keep expecting the game to move faster when it's slow and slower when it's fast, so I end up running off by myself or standing around with my back turned while a hunter jumps me from behind.
Took me a long time to learn the controls as the infected as well. I still haven't entirely figured them out.
