    Mehhh...no. I was actually the first one who learnt that Tanks run slower than you, unless set on fire, then they'd speed up. Used that to my advantage here. The main problem is finding a path so you can keep running without going into a dead end or bumping into something. :p

    Video prove was already posted so I'll post another one for fun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJDGzuVScvQ :p

    we never lose.

    generally, we play No Mercy, and we always win like 6-7K points to 2K points.

    we have a pretty high rate of surviving all four on the finale. it's really easy with our method.

    OMG you and your clan/friends can beat a bunch of random people who have never met!

    OMG let's go play L4D CAL.

    Seriously, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU.

    L4D is a game about zombies. You shoot them. Sometimes you eat people. This game is meant for fun, not some stat bragging competition. Quit stroking your e-peen and just play.

    Heh, I totally agree. I mean it's still kinda fun, but when your playing against a team whose obviously practiced a ton together, it's impossible to beat them with random strangers.

    :D

    That post was only half serious.

    The other day some kid started yelling "DON'T EVEN GAME! DON'T EVEN GAME DUDE!"

    Sorry sirs, I didn't realise left 4 dead was such serious business. I get bored with it easily now. Sorry that instead of doing your plan, I was trying to jump the hunter off the map. Sorry about that time I didn't place the fire just right and run straight into your little corner fortress. Sorry for just trying to have fun. I now realise that L4D is srs bsns.

    I'd suggest just leaving and finding another server, but it's more fun to tick SRS BSNESS people off by doing things to annoy them in game.

    Well, it is annoying when people are just retarded. For example, a friend and I were trying beat the finale of Dead Air on expert, but we got this guy who typed in all CAPS and screamed into his mike calling his idiots. So we got to the first tank, survived the waves of normal zombies, and I managed to kill it. Then comes the second tank, my friend dies in the process and I barely manage to kill it before being incaped on the ground. Guess what this morons doing? Galloping around by himself on the OTHERSIDE of the map. He RAN OFF when the 2nd tank came, and totally screwed any chance we had of winning that. Then, we I chewed him out afterwards, he just called us silly names and left... haha. :D

    Heh, so I was playing co-op random party the other night. This one guy is using cvar cheats, spawning himself an AR in the 1st chapter, spawning medkits, etc. At one point, one of the other guys says he has a way to go for the 53k zombie achievement. The first guy says he can help, and inputs a cheat to increase zombie density. After a few minutes, he leaves the game and we are left to do the 5th chapter. We restart probably 8 times all told. We finally finish (I'm the only one who is rescued with 4 health) and we ended up killing 4000 zombies. In fact, one of the final attempts the tanks never showed so we kept getting hit with wave after wave until we all got killed. It was completely insane. Hopefully like survival mode will be. That's all.

    Oh, I don't know them. He entered the cvar codes but he didn't say what they were. And, he kept telling us that they were not able to get any of the party kicked or whatever happens. Supposedly :)
