You have great points. What do you mean don't play Expert? Are you talking about single player or MP? The only problem with playing the single game is when zombies do swarm you, I dip into a corner with my shotgun blasting away without hitting my team, but the problem is they never follow me into the corner and eventually all three of them are on the ground, so I quickly ping off all the zombies then help one of them up. Then we both help the other two up.

The AI in the game is great I admit, but it would have been cool if they could just follow me into the corner. This is why I created a sort of box fighting position, where I look after the rear while the other three look after the front and sides. What choice do I have in single player mode. Advance is just not challenging enough for me.

I also figured out how to kill the witch effectively, but sometimes it does go wrong in single player so I never try any foolish stunts like that in MP even though I already ran into a shit load of others which did just that disturb the witch.

gotta find the right people..

and a lot of people I know who play expert... shouldn't..lol..
they just aren't good enough..
they can't figure out how to "NOT" shoot their teammates in the back of the head.
they can't figure out how to play like a a team and not go off into a solo rambo mission.

rule of thumb.. if you can't finish a mission with less than 15 friendly fire incidents (and thats being nice).. don't play expert..
if you can't stay with your team.. don't play expert..
if you can't remember to get into a corner or into a room for EVERY swarm.. don't play expert..
if you always need to kill the witch and cause your team to watch you die... don't play expert..
if your one of those guys who always has to have the shotgun to show off your e-peen and you can't seem to not shoot your team mates..
definitely don't play expert.. you one hit kill with that thing.
Last but not least..If you don't have a dang mic.. stay the hell out of expert..lol..

to many people play expert who.. sorry to say it like this..
need to learn their place...lol..

they just are not good enough.. but swear they are..
expert is an entirely different animal than any other difficulty setting..
I feel there should be a level between advanced and expert because the jump in difficulty from advanced to expert is just to much.

I play expert because it's the only thing still challenging..
but I still like advanced to slow things down a bit.
nice to not have to worry about being killed constantly by noob team members.
you know, ones who don't know they should of stayed in normal or advanced..

I had a guy come on the other day who said..

"I never played this game before but I figure I should learn with the best"


no... no you shouldn't learn with the best and make us pay for your lack of ability..
you should start at the bottom and teach your dam self..lol..


fyi there's a mod out now for all of the maps that should of been in VS from day 1.

all of the campaign missions.

I installed it with no issues I've seen.
I played for 2 days since then in all nighters and have had no issues.

thanks man

thanks man

No problem, I sent you a friend request if you are interested. I am just looking for some people that want to game and have fun, and not take things way too personal and nuts.

 

[Super XP]

I was playing the MP last night after shovelling snow for 2 hours. My arms felt like lead pipes, but it didn't stop me from blasting away zombies.

Something weird happened to me last night after a friend invited me to play with a group of other gamers. They voted me off for some reason? We (the group) did a pretty good job as the survivors. But when it was time to be the undead, I eventually became the TANK. I knocked one guy off the roof so he is dead, and crippled another survivor and left him there so somebody else can finish him off, and the other survivors ran like the wind, I couldn't catch them.

As I was beating down on the survivors, I had one or two other players constantly babbling away trying to tell me what I should do and what I shouldn't be do. I really believe people are taking this game way too personal. Let's have fun and please don't tell somebody how to play as the TANK. It's just ridiculously stupid. Especially when I caused a dump load of damage to the survivors and eventually helped out my team.

In the end they voted me off. So I joined another game with a different set of people with no problems at all. It’s all fun guys.

i think with a game that's so dependent on co-operation, you inevitably get the headstrong people who play it their own way and therefore try to impose their rules for it. personally i've always listened to what the other people say to me in-game as i've found they're right. as such i've learned how to kill a Tank on Expert and on vs. with only one casualty (if they don't listen) or none (if they do listen).

i haven't been so unfortunate to be kicked off for disobeying the group, but often i've been kicked because i joined a friends-only (weird, i know).

i agree, don't take this game to heart, it's only a game. but we must remember people get caught up in the immersion and become game-Nazis

 

[ShadowFold]

The only time I get mad at people is when the tank is easily avoided by running into the safe room and they just completely disregard my advice.. I ended being the only one alive because I was the only one to get into the safe room. The tank cannot break the doors in campaign, but they can in VS.

 

[crazy pyro]

@shadow Try and get someone to run the tank round in circles and everyone else shoot it through the door should do the trick in versus.

 

[Super XP]

Great points and I agree. I happened to join a game right the middle of a blood bath battle. I had a hunter on me just as I joined. My group helped me out we fight them off as best as possible, then eventually they just kicked me off for no reason. I believe it was because they did not want strangers to join or something. But in this case I did nothing wrong.

I also listen to people’s advise all the time, I may not be perfect but I do the best I can because trying to adapt there way of playing the game is not always easy especially when you are used to playing your style.

Nevertheless we should all have fun. Groups should stick with groups so they can challenge other groups. And blind joining a random group of people should be plain fun because you learn from each other.

I tell you I got kicked off another time because I refused to kick off another player and they needed my vote.

if i kept hearing that, i'd quit the game

 

[Super XP]

I can't count how many times I had to quit game a game because 1 and/or 2 players consistently yell all the time.

Example:
One “GUY” kept saying “keep up with me or I will leave you behind”. And I told him we all need each other to stick together, so if one goes down we all go back.

So one guy gets attacked by a hunter so I went back to help, then I get attacked by a hunter. The “GUY” says out loud I told you so, you cannot keep up with me, and once he said that he too got nailed by a hunter lol, 3 may be able to survive but not 2. This is why you need 4 survivors working together without acting like jack a**es.

True.

I was wondering if there is teams for L4D for like competitions?

True.

I don't see how that would work lol Why did you leave that room I had up? Didn't like the cheats We were just playing around

Lol, well right when I joined it was laggy so bad. I was wondering what was going on because my system doesn't have problems, but then it was time to eat, so I had to go.

 

[ShadowFold]

Oh that other retard spawned like 200 fire cans.. We ended up lighting them all up.

im on usually playing call of duty so just pm me

 

[Chryonn]

i have to say i've been very lucky to play with some wonderful people this side of the Pond. Brits, French, Germans, a couple of Greeks, all have been nice and patient, helping peeps out, teaching us shortcuts and tricks to by-pass the horde etc.

 

[D007]

Yes please, new maps will be great, getting tired of playing the same maps over and over.

dang i'll try to find it.. i think i have the installer on my desktop still i can put it up on filefront..

EDIT:
thing would take me almost an hour to upload at this horrid speed..
my connection is only doing friggin 40 kbps upload..thats not right..
only 71 meg file.

i'll see if i can get the link again.. but the guy who gave it to me urked me acting like a kid, so i removed him from my friend list.. XD

I know you can google l4d maps and find some stuff also.


oh and all I meant by don't play expert is.. well pretty much what I said..lol..
I just think it would be nice if people got better before burdening others with their suckiness..
what I said doesn't of course apply to everyone..
if the shoe fits though..
you know the saying. ..

also in regards to tanks breaking into safe houses.
sometimes the tank breaks through the door..
sometimes he won't.
IDK when or why..
it's just sometimes your lucky, sometimes not I guess..

 

[Super XP]

Or it could be that the game does indeed change every time we play more than we really think. Oh, in regards to the TANK breaking down the safe house door.

I've already cleared all movie campaigns single player, I've completed the campaigns I like on advanced and expert. I’m quite good at several campaigns on expert but right now Valve does not offer those campaigns on MP yet. One difference I find is playing Single Player on expert is peanuts compared to playing MP. In MP if you stop running you are dead. At least in single player expert, you have a chance to catch your breath.

 

[Super XP]

True.

I was wondering if there is teams for L4D for like competitions?

Same here. I think Valve should have something like this going on. Well they sort of do already one team being the survivors and the other team killing them with zombie vomit.

I would love to see a group of average players kick the so called expert players in the airs lol.

im on usually playing call of duty so just pm me

Sounds Good, next time I'm on.
