Left 4 Dead

Yeah, seriously. Fuck that noise. Same thing with tanks.

The update notes looking amazing though. So glad that it's gonna be harder to push a Hunter or whatever, that shit is beyond annoying (even though I utilize it myself, why not?), same with breaking Smoker tongues by hitting. And I'm glad you're going to do damage as soon as you start to pull a survivor, was bullshit that it took so long to actually do anything to them prior. Now... just have to wait for the updates since I'm on 360, oh well.

Not had a chance to play yet, but has anyone checked if the map exploits included the barricades you could make to fuck-over survivors?

[Jedimasta]

I'm pissed about the car alarms and tanks but I'll get over it. It was always fun throwing those at survivors and causing the horde to come a runnin.

You can still push the light post thing in No Mercy sewers into the passage way. It doesn't screw you over, but it takes forever to move it out of the way.

[Metah]

According to my friend, the Dead Air area 2 skip has been blocked with an invisible wall, the Jesus Room in No Mercy finale doesn't work anymore (although he didn't say anything about the ledge) and you can't jump the barricade cressendo in Dead Air area 3 anymore.

However, he says the rock in Death Toll finale still works.

[Metah]

You can still cheese out Blood Harvest so the tank auto-dies.

I just did it, but I didn't get my last point for What Are You Trying To Prove?

Does this happen sometimes, or did they change it so if the tank auto-dies you don't get jack shit anymore lol

Happens to me a lot, I completed 2 or 3 expert campaigns before I got Zombicidal Maniac and I still only have credit for one expert clear. And yes, I did "survive" all of those campaigns.

We played last night and ended up stopping after the other team blocked off all the paths in the No Mercy elevator level. Until that update hits on the 360 I'm not even bothering to play. People act like fucking bitches in this game.

I've been noticing a sort of unspoken rule of etiquette on Live recently, myself. If my team doesn't do it, the other team won't, etc.. It's been kind of nice, but I'm not naive enough to actually think that's what's going on, I'm probably just playing people who don't know how to do it.

At this point, though, if it's done to me first, I make it a point to do it to the other team. I'm sick of that shit and hate being hypocritical about it especially how pissed I was when it started happening regularly, but fuck that.

[Brill Weave]

Well that was the thing that pissed me off the most. We were the Infected first and we were getting fucking pummelled the entire game. And we still didn't use that bullshit glitch. Even though killing them would have evened up the score, we still didn't stoop that low. Sure enough when we go, elevator blocked. They try to get at us for about twenty minutes then knock it out of the way. We head out, sure enough, forklift blocking the path. I was fucking pissed. Hence I will no longer be playing the game until Valve gets off their fucking asses and fixes what is a huge issue affecting a fuckload of people.

That right there is why I only play Blood Harvest on versus now. There's just so many goddamn exploits to use on No Mercy. Garbage bin over the sewer hole, the elevator and forklift glitch. In BH they can't do that so it makes for a much nicer versus experience.

Plus it's funny getting to the finale and seeing hunters jumping straight into the air in the cornfields. It's like a zombie duck hunt. All it needs is the dog laughing at you.

[Brill Weave]

Well for a while I seemed to get pretty lucky and nobody did it. So I just figured that it was a few random people doing it etc. The last twelve out thirteen times I've played, it's been done. I've also seen a HUGE increase in people pulling the Smoker shit where they snag you over the edge and it break your neck as well as the tank just punching people straight off the roof. I'm not having fun playing the game. It hasn't been fun for a while now. It's just not worth the bullshit right now. If they fix this crap I will happily play it more. But until then it's now on the bottom of the stack of my 360 games. It's even underneath Rise of the Argonauts.

I havent seen the blocking being an issue yet and i play a couple hours just about every day. the smoker and getting punched off the roof is an intended game mechanic as far as i'm concerned.

[Kiro]

I must be getting lucky with who I play with because I've never had to deal with anyone blocking a path or doing any kind of "exploits". We just try to kill eachother, lol.

[Brill Weave]

The pattern I've noticed is the people who do it are either winning big or losing big. I've only seen it done twice in closely contested games. And both times the Infected started pounding away on it so people could get out of the elevator.

[Vandalhart]

I haven't seen it much myself, but admittedly I haven't played much multiplayer with strangers.

I'm actually lining up a good number of friends on my xbox who all have it so maybe we'll just play inclusively for clears eventually.

How does it work? You just keep meleeing various environment articles and they slowly move to a bad location?

Yeah that's pretty much it. Most of it could be solved if the survivors could actually melee items out of the way, but no that would be too easy.

[Vandalhart]

I'm glad I haven't had to deal with the douchebags that feel this is acceptable then.

[Brill Weave]

Yeah, the only way you can move it as a survivor is to use a pipe bomb. Which, let's face it, in VS mode you're just focusing on moving as quick as possible. Most of the time you don't even have time to stop, let alone look for pipe bombs.

[zoobernut]

yeah the moving of environment items to block paths sucks and I hope they fix it. I really hate it when people do that. Using the tank to punch people off the building or pulling them over the edge with the smoker is an as intended gameplay mechanic in my opinion and you just need to revise your strategy in those areas. It is not that hard to run into the interior areas when you hear the tank music.
