I was under the impression that it was always mandatory for a crown to go for the small of her back (aiming for the tramp stamp). I still have issues with tier 1 shottys and crowning though anyone have tips for that? I thought the same rule applies, you just have to be dead on?

There should be some Youtube videos of it, it's kinda tricky. I'm betting that most times this ends up with death or 2 or more survivors hanging. Not to mention it would prob be next to impossible on vs.

That and they'll all quit halfway through to join another game they think they can win. Only to witness their posting in the chat a mere 5 minutes later that: "Well I can't play like that, we were missing one person". (always a Dead Center level 1 casualty) Goons are finicky bitches. That said I've taken to inviting some into friend only games when we need one and normally they behave. Darkhand does, some do not.

MrSaxamaphone posted:I find the smoker to be onenof my favorite si to get because of the range and rooftops. That's also the thorn in the rear end of most infected teams also. A real good group of survivors can and will block known spawns and ambush sites. I've played a ton of games against teams who've ran ahead and blocked spawns and sent one person in for bait. Most (good) infected players have to play on their toes, I've seen it alot in goon games too.

Wait, so ... For Left 4 Dead 2, gamers receive “The Sacrifice” campaign and L4D1’s “No Mercy” both playable with the L4D1 Survivors. Each campaign is playable in Campaign, Versus, Survival, and Scavenge modes and both feature the Left 4 Dead 2 Special Infected, items, and weapons. Yes, Zoey with a chainsaw!.. means I don't have to have L4D loaded and can just play it on L4D2? Or am I missing something here?

averox posted:I think the NM3 fence thing has to do with the distance traveled in the map or something. The last time I played tank, someone on the opposing team started telling his team (alltalk was on) to stay in the open area near the Burger Tank. Sure enough, three of us spawn behind the fence. Yeah I got to agree with this. Going into TAAAAAAAAAANK! with anything other than the desire to have fun and goof off is going to lead to disappointment. Start the lobby, switch to all talk and no one should rage, you should be laughing to hard. Also neko sucks.

Abandoned Toaster posted:Wow Lone Gunman is a really lovely mutation. Apart from the gimmicky "use only one weapon thing" which really isn't THAT impressive and they've already done like 3 other times, it's also only single-player like Last Man on Earth, there's only one Special Infected (Boomer, though there are still tanks and witches), there's a lot fewer zombies, and every hit deals 30 damage by a common and a boomer. I don't even want to bother speedrunning through a map. It does suck. I played a game right before rescuing Bee and Luscan from a certain reverse pubstomp and managed to speed run The Passing using plenty of adrenaline. By the time I made it to the finale I just didn't care, too gimmicky. I know I'm blowing smoke but it'd be nice to see a few more of these mutations into game modes. *TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS*

Also I liked Haunted Forest even if it was a little wandering and cheesy but it just felt right. Whatever that means. Also any other campaigns we should be looking at? I think we need an official G4D list. That way people can grab them and hop into chat and play them instead of racing 4 other goons then leaving when someone wants to do coop.

Huitzil posted:What kind of hacks exist for this game? Is it just aimbots and speedhacks, or are there things that mess with how the server does stuff? Probably just bad luck. Sometimes you just get the games where nothing goes in your favor. Lined up perfectly for a death charge? Nope, you hit a door jamb just slightly. Boomer bile on the opposite team seems to shoot for 30 yards when yours couldn't hit the wall you spawned behind. etc... Them games. Serious question, how hard is it to make a L4D2 level? I'm a computer novice at best but I'd almost seriously consider trying to make one.

So is the consensus of the last 2 pages "we must abide by the rules set forth by Valve when playing Left 4 Dead". Or is it "internet anonymousness allows me to act any way I want". I'm confused. Can't there be a middle ground. Also, let us combine a list of all mod campaigns we use in G4D so that we may all play "by the rules".

Nobody really gets mad in our games either, every chat game I've played usually ends with someone raging.
