The Zombie Killer

Befire I go into a huge post telling you guys of everything I've done on L4D in the past week or so I gotta tell you this....
I finally got Genocidest.
Yup, 53,595 kills.

I'm pumped.
- Neezo

YOU play everyday? Ya right.

Alright, I play almost everyday... or a lot at least.

When I played tonight... I ended up with one teammate that ended up killing us all........

AoMxPoisnAngelz

Yup... It was the rooftop finale, and we were up by 800. (It was a hard-fought 800 points, you'll hear about it later)....

So after we made it to the top, we all bunkered down and took corners inside the building. We all ammo-ed up, and I healed as well as Jordan (Jordan and I were hurt from serious attacks that AoMxPoisnAngelz didn't help us from). But Louis and PoisnAngelz had green health (80+ each). So we have two packs left... And PoisnAngelz heals up! And takes a med pack. Suddenly a Boomer comes and gets Louis or something and Louis loses a lot of health. Jordan and I are guarding the doors from incoming hordes, and AoMxPoisnAngelz just sits there, letting Louis get hurt. No help. IDIOT. So Louis had to heal, and as an NPC he takes the last medpack. I didn't know AoMxPoisnAngelz had healed yet, and thought there was one pack left.

I called in the chopper, and we all bunkered down. AoMxPoisnAngelz ran to the roof, alone. Even Louis didn't go upstairs.

I hear a Hunter upstairs, so I run up to save AoMxPoisnAngelz, but I get pinned and then he does. We both get boomed, and the horde shows up. Yee-haw. By this time I'm upset. Jordan runs up and saves AoMxPoisnAngelz, who only took about twenty damage. I'm surrounded and can't get rescued easily. So I lose sixty health. I heal up, and run downstairs to get the "last medpack." It's not there. I'm mad. No pills, no pack, and the first Tank hasn't even spawned.

Here is where I get boomed again, and try to hide in the building. Louis and Jordan come back down, but not AoMxPoisnAngelz. So I throw my pipebomb, and reload. After the horde dies, I get ready for the Tank. (I took some damage so I have about 70 health). Tank spawns, and I run upstairs to help AoMxPoisnAngelz. Well, when I get upstairs I'm pinned. Louis saves me, thank you Louis. And then AoMxPoisnAngelz jumps down and runs towards the Tank. Idiot.

So I run over to the Molotovs to flame up the Tank. But, I get pinned. Louis runs over to me but gets hit by the Tank... and Incapped NEXT TO ME, but on the OTHER SIDE of the crate. So he can't shoot off the Hunter. I'm losing health fast... and am Incapped. AoMxPoisnAngelz is there, but jsut stands there shooting the Tank and not helping me. When the Tank runs after Jordan AoMxPoisnAngelz shoots off the Hunter, but leaves. Luckily the Tank chases him now and Jordan heps me up. I help up Louis, but am smoked off the side. Jordan tries to come to my rescue, but gets boomed then pinned. Luckily, he had already shot off the Smoker. So I shoot the Hunter off Jordan, and he is left with about ten health.

Louis is dead. Jordan heals. AoMxPoisnAngelz is being chased. Jordan finishes healing, and the SMOKER SPAWNS AND GRABS HIM. Ok, that's stupid. PoisnAngelz is pinned, but Jordan is healing. I shoot off the Hunter from PoisnAngelz and the Smoker lands where I am... I die. This is when Jordan is smoked. AoMxPoisnAngelz could easily have shot the stupid Smoker even though he was incapped. But he sat there. Jordan went from around 75 health to incapped due to his inaction. By this time the Molotov I EVENTUALLY hit the Tank with had killed it. Jeez.

Afterwards, we play as the Infected, Jordan fails to do what he said he would and we end up needing AoMxPoisnAngelz's help. But he sucks. He really bites. He is terrible. He ends up being the worst. The other team bunkers in the building, and stay together and kill us easily. They killed the first Tank (Jordan) easily. Then the second Tank, AoMxPoisnAngelz, did no damage. He threw random rocks at the worst times possible... GOD!!!

So when I'm the Tank, I'm stuck in some glitchy area and can't even move... When I finally can move, they're all in the Copter. DAMN! I totally blame AoMxPoisnAngelz for the failure.

Of course, we ended up losing as they were all GREEN when they entered, I don't think Francis healed ONCE!!! Damn!

The other team was actually good, if only Jordan and AoMxPoisnAngelz actually did something. If Jordan did what I told him and AoMxPoisnAngelz actually incapped one Survivor we may have done better.

So I sent AoMxPoisnAngelz a message telling him he did terrible and should either stop playing or learn how to play. He replied that he has been playing everyday for a while now and that I was a newb and sucked. I laughed tremendously, and examined the play. Given what I said above, and the intelligence I gave in previous posts, who was the newb? Ya, AoMxPoisnAngelz sucked and I couldn't win alone... But maybe if he did something I wouldn't be trashing him so much.

In response:
- Never Leave Someone Next To You For Dead, Turn and Save Them
- NEVER GO ON THE ROOF ALONE!!! NEVER!!!
- Do not APPROACH the Tank, He Is Stronger Than You
- When Incapped, Try to Save Your Fellow Survivors if You Can... You Can Still Shoot
- If There is a Tank And He's Not Attacking You, And You Can Save Someone From A Hunter/Smoker... DO IT! The Other Person Can Help You Kill the Tank!

So I leave you with this: Stop being a NEWB AoMxPoisnAngelz and leave me the heck alone!!!

Well, I've had the red circle of death before, and it's starting to make the same sounds it did when it died last year. I hope to avoid this again...

But that means no Left 4 Dead for a while. I guess I'll update you guys about Easter Weekend L4D games a bit later.

No Mercy for Anyone

Last night was epic: 2 Rounds of No Mercy Versus
The cast was the same both times.

AlNeezo11: Me (wow)- Louis
NeeKiller: Uri- Zoey
Baconautor: John- Francis
Baconautor(1): Jordan- Bill

Round 1:
Scores:
1- 1120/ 59
2- 58/ 16
3- 1557/ 20
4- 1506/ 18
5- 2160/ Missed
End- 6401/ 439

I'm trying out a new score layout... but I'm thinking it takes up too much room... Hmmm...

During level 1 we all made it, naturally. But when it was their turn I smoked Louis before he had a chance to jump down the hole in the apartments. He died. It was epic. And then I ran out to go and help my friends on the street... Uri pinned one person, and I smoked the "rescuer." I was the Smoker the whole time and never died once that round. Yay!

When we were playing level 2 I told people to molotov the Witch, but Jordan wanted to try and get CROWNED with a normal shotgun... He was killed by the Witch when I got pinned and everyone else got horded. FAIL. Then, when we made it to the large "basement" room with the pillars, the Tank spawned, Uri was incapped, and John and I were boomed. We got pummled afterwards. The Tank died, but John had too little health to fend of the rapid spawning Boomer. (It spawned every 5 seconds! I swear!) But they didn't do any better, they did worse.

Alright, I don't know what the logic was during level 3 but after the Tank I went to inspect the "secret room" above the gas station for weapons, everyone followed me! I said I'd do it alone and run back to the lift... But oh well. Then, Jordan goes and runs to the lift, without telling anyone. NEVER DO THAT! He got pinned and we didn't know where he was. What happened next was beyond me: we jumped down, and SOMEONE (we believe it was Uri) shot the gas tanks!!! C-R-A-P! We scatter like ants and boom! We barely survived, and barely reached Jordan before he died. ALL BEFORE WE MADE IT TO THE LIFT!!! Damn.... While we ran across the roof John got smoked, and each time we tried to cross something happened. So I just ran downstairs and opened the door for them. When we finally made it to the sewer John Jordan couldn't get down the manhole. It was actually pretty funny... but eventually he made it, after yelling for about a minute. And when we were safe inside the safehouse... the door closed and Francis threw a molotov. The whole room was on fire, thanks a lot. But during their turn I incapped two in the lot, and yellowed Francis... they all died outside of the diner.

Level 4 was pretty good. We encountered the Tank right away in the first open room... and he chased me all over the place. But we unloaded and beat it pretty easily. During the course of the level I ran out of ammo twice (Assault Rifle) and forgot to restock at the elevator... oops. But we all survived. They weren't so luck. They felt the WRATH OF URI!!! Mwah ha ha ha! In the same room we had the Tank, they were attacked. Uri incapped three of them, and the last one was a piece of cake. It was blatant they stunk that round.

Finale: Ah the epic finale. We all escaped and found that if someone acts as bait and 'tovs the Tank, and someone is up top with the minigun, then the Tank falls fast. It worked pretty well. They, again, FAILED. All four of them stunk! The first guy around the block I smoked off the side into the elevator shaft. Then they got boomed. Then they got jumped. Then they got boomed again. And somehow three of them made it to the roof. Then they got jumped. And smoked. And then boomed again. And one guy JUMPED off the roof onto the ground, and incapped himself. Idiot. And the last two got pinned. It was an EPIC FAIL.

Like we normally do, we won.

Round 2:

Quickly after the game ended I hit START GAME since all four were still in the lobby. We began round two, mwah ha ha ha!!! To my surprise they actually tried the first level without quitting.

Scores:
1- 1164/ 72
2- 1368/ 4
3- 1372/ 40
4- 1434/ 47
5- 2040/ QUIT
End- Us: 7378

Pissed that they quit in the middle of the final level. If you're at the finale, at least finish it.

The only person who stayed on board to level 2 was senojxxx, who only played because he bowed to our superiority. He must have seen us as a diety. (He quit level 4). We decided to SPEED ROUND each level, trying to get through as fast as we could... and we did amazing.

At the end of level 1 Jordan and I BOTH had 97 health... and I never healed once. LOL. I had the most kills to, 32. HA ha ha! But NeeKiller did the most ZOMBIE DAMAGE: 761. Respectable for the first level and without a Tank. We no lie finished in about 1 minute flat. Maybe a few seconds more, but no more than 1:20. It was amazing how fast we flew through that level. Naturally, they all died. I got that sneaky bastard who tried to run for the safehouse. LOL!

NeeKiller did the best level 2, with some triple digit kills. I don't know how. But we ran through the level again, and never gave them time to set up. We even killed the Tank really fast. We ran through, set off the car alarm, ran into the safehouse, healed, and won. They started one of the worst rounds ever. I was the Tank a few seconds after they exited the safehouse. And I ran into the area right below the safehouse, and incapped THREE of them. Jordan, I think, incapped the last one. All four were incapped right under the safehouse... scoring only FOUR points! FAILURE!!!!

Level 3 was interesting. I think what we did regarding the lift was the best thing we have ever done, well, since we can't beat the door down. Uri and I ran through the diner immediately and straight to the lift. John and Jordan ran to the back room to check for weapons. Uri and I rode up the lift and ran into the building really fast, while John and Jordan came out to kill any possible Smokers. Uri and I grabbed some ammo, ran downstairs and opened the large door. By the time the door opened, John and Jordan were just reaching it. Everybody was green and the horde hadn't even arrived. We blew through the rest of the level pretty quickly, and no Tank spawned. I ended up with 196 kills, it was pretty wonderful. When we were the INFECTED I jumped Francis off the roof while he was alone (it was Francis, an NPC)... then I got to kill him down below. They made it to the room above the ammo room, but that's when Zoey got jumped and died. Yehaw!

Considering the Tank was in the first large reception room we made it fairly quickly. If we didn't have to fight the Tank almost immediately, we would have made it to the elevator in about a minute instead of two and a half. But once we made it up top we breezed through the level. Only, Jordan got smoked off the edge of the hospital and I had to save him. Ha ha. But then, two more people joined... and the two that were already on kicked them. We were confuzzled. As the Infected I tried smoking people off the ledge in the first large reception room, but I couldn't get them for some reason. Two more people joined, and were again kicked. We laughed because you need three votes to kick, and two people would be together and for some reason kick themselves. Weird... So John was the Tank and stirred up commotion upstairs in the second reception room. I was surprised by the appearance of a new player, and I screamed their name: "KINKYSLAYER!!!" I thought it was funny, nobody else did. I smoked him off the ledge I was trying to for so long, and he was the last one. John tried to Tank punch him out of my grasp... but somehow missed. Ha ha. Eventually he killed me, team-killing noob. ;)

The finale was epic. We literally OWNED them. They did so little to us, and all four of us lived. They quit right after we entered the helicopter, lame-ohs.

Ah well, that's what happens when you rock.

Untouchable

Well, I just got the Untouchables achievement. (Where no survivors take damage after contacting the rescue vehicle). I took my hints from YouTube, ya I'm lame like that.
And the best part, I beat it WITH bots on the XBox.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYIvN1f7ex8

That describes, essentially, what I did. I played a bit differently though.

The Story Thickens

Alright, it may sound funny, but I may start writing a Left 4 Dead style story. Ya, laugh all you want people but I'm being serious. I'm interested in writing, but I don't think I'd make it in the real world. So I'm gonna test out some ideas and my writing style on you guys Mwah ha ha ha!

Thanks, I'll update you guys via blog posts!

Hunting Lessons: Tips and Tricks 1

Some Hunter Tips and Tricks:

- Distance Travelled, not height of jump or air time, is what affects the amount of initial jump damage.
(For example, check this video) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rNGsnfdm5k
- To wall-jump you must pull a 180 turn at the wall and jump again when you hit it. I don't wall-jump a lot but I can do it if I really need to.
- Never jump into a group of Survivors, always try to pick one of them off if they are alone or the others are boomed and surrounded.
- Lighting yourself on fire may cause more damage, but you definitely lose a lot of health fast.
- Instead of jumping on someone who is surrounded by a horde, join the horde and beat him down for more damage (unless he's the las one standing)
- Jumping above a Survivor helps when they are beating down
- There are usually two Hunters, but sometimes there are three. Try to keep coordinated if there are multiple Hunters around to get the most effective results.
- You scream when you jump, and growl when you're crouched... they will alert diligent players of your proximity.
- Hunter have the most health out of all Special Infected, use that to your advantage!

I found this one video that kind of summarizes my own points. I think he's a pretty good Hunter, probably better than me. ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDV_2w4NU_s

This isn't a guise to being the Hunter, but if you keep these tips and tricks in mind... you may just come out on top!

Red Mist

Well, after a long and hard road... I got the Red Mist achievement.

I needed 250 kills with the Mounted MG (exactly) and played two rounds of the rooftop finale and one runway finale... each time I chose RANDOM but ended up as Zoey, a strange happening indeed.

FEAR MY RED MIST!!! 1000 Kills with the MMG

Smoking

That's right, it's time to talk about this year's Number 3 Villain of the Year (according to Game Informer): THE SMOKER.

Seriously, who would want to be dragged along the wall of a building and be unable to move? The whole time a giant tongue is crushing you! It's really embarassing. I continue to say: I'd be running for the rescue vehicle, and right when I am about to enter, I'd be smoked and killed. It's true.

Anyhow, these past updates have seriously hurt the one-shot kills of the Smoker. Before, you'd be able to wait outside on the roof of Mercy Hospital and one-smoke the first person off the ladder to a certain death. Now, it's just about 20 damage. I like that a lot more, but it's really annoying for Smokers. Also, dragging someone off the edge usually leads to them grabbing the edge, not falling like they used to. Good again for Survivors, bad for Smokers.

The key to being a Smoker is not to be seen, until the last second. You also want to be in a position to single out a Survivor and reduce the chance anybody has of rescuing them. The Smoker does much less damage than a Hunter, so location is key. A Hunter may be able to do 10-15 damage in an open area, or even next to the Survivors, but a Smoker cannot. Stealth is your biggest weapon. Finding the right place with the right distance is the first step to becoming a great Smoker. Heck, I don't ALWAYS get into the best spots and sometimes it is strategic to be in the open... but not most of the time.

The best spots are ones in which Survivors cannot return: i.e. The Giant Hole in the apartments in No Mercy, Level 1. Or maybe dropping into the sewers in No Mercy, Level 3. Other great spots are ones that drop Survivors great distances, and thus inflicting great pain immediately: Such as off a wall or off a cliff. Trying to incap them by pulling them into an abyss doesn't work as well as it used to, but it is still very useful. Another strategy is to key to use the Smoker to trigger key events: such as smoking someone into the Witch (which angers her) or smoking someone OVER a car (which sets off the alarm).

Timing is also important: if no zombies are around, you're an easy target. If you wait until the last second, you may miss your chance. If you strike to early, you may have to wait to recharge (which is a pain). The best times are when someone is left alone, they are in a group and you want to pull one away to pick him/her off, they are about to heal themselves, or they are all boomed. When they are boomed they can hardly see... which grants you the time to pull them far away, and get a few hits in BEFORE they can see you... and by that time it is likely that a horde is on top of them and they can't get to your prey. Having a Hunter to protect you is also a good idea as he can jump any "rescuer" before they beat your prey out of your constriction. We use this tactic a lot.

Finally, remember your weaknesses. As a smoker you have less health than a Hunter, so catching on fire is a very bad idea (you'll die really fast). You also cough every few seconds which signifies that you are around: camping near Survivors may be a bad idea. You also give off a green smoke, so if you're waiting around a corner, any competent Survivor will notice your smoke and be ready for you. Keep this in mind when choosing your smoking location.

Well, I hope this has helped you in your Left 4 Dead quests, I just hope you all have a great time and get out there and SMOKE!!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha *cough* *wheeze* ha!

The Lame, The Awesome, and The Stupid

Two Games to Catch Up On:

Blood Harvest: Versus

AlNeezo11- Me - Zoey

NeeKiller - Jordan - Francis

Baconautor - John - Louis

Baconautor(1) - Uri - Bill

Level 1:

Naturally we ran through the level quickly, and as cleanly as possible. Well, nothing special happened at all. We ran through killing everything and scored 1036 points.

Our opponents weren't so lucky. I killed Francis with the Smoker... before they crossed the bridge. And my teammates took care of the others pretty quickly, leaving our opponents with 282 points.

Level 2:

How we got through so quckly is beyond me. We ran and ran and even made 2 people quit. When we reached the safehouse Jordan and I both had 85 health. It was pretty epic. We ended with 1451 points.

Again, they weren't so lucky. They started to run through the level... But after three quick incaps I eventually killed Francis... again. That made him quit. So the last dude tried to make it on his own, but after those 3 incaps by moi they really had no chance. They all died and barely scored 45 points.

Level 3:

Typical end to a typical Awesome-Squad game. We ran through the level, and when we reached the train and the bridge section I ran ahead and started the train. However, when the train hit the bridge it collapsed on top of John, incapping him. Everybody got swarmed quickly and John died. The rest of us made it up the ramp and to the safehouse, scoring 916 points.

Right inside the safehouse at the end of our turn the last guy quit. The level started and 4 NPCs plauged the starting room. We were about to quit, after three minutes of nothing, when someone joined. They left the safehouse, and quit immediately. The end to a typical game.

---

Then I played a few solo campaigns with some random non-LIVE users on my X-Box... it was alright I guess. Then Jordan and I played some co-op campaigns and beat them pretty effortlessly. (Dead Air and No Mercy)

---

No Mercy: Versus

So here comes the Lame and Stupid part...

AlNeezo11- Meh- Bill

NeeKiller- Uri- Zoey

Baconautor- John- Francis

Baconautor(1)- Oz- Louis

Level 1:

We made it out of the apartments just like we normally do, relatively unscratched and unharmed. We walked out into the street and tossed a pipe bomb. Cleared the streets. We go through the back rooms and just as we are going outside... I toss a molotov... but am pushed by someone jumping out of the window. And I throw the 'tov into a wall. Oz and I got stuck. Behind a wall of flames. Just as wee get outside, I run towards teh subway, along with John. But Oz is Smoked back pretty far and John is pinned. I shoot the hunter off, but the body lands on the car and sets off the alarm. Stupid stupid stupid!!! I start down to the safehouse, assuming Uri will save Oz as he's standing right next to him. However, Uri gets pinned... John gets swarmed... I get boomed... and Oz dies. Somehow, I managed to heal up in the safehouse and rescue the other two. Score: 702 (LAME)

But, we redeemed ourselves... sort of. Francis ran downstairs immediately and I smoked him. The only person downstairs with him gets pinned... and the two people still upstairs get boomed. They save the pinned person (Zoey) and then rescue Francis, who I incapped myself thank you very much. They made it downstairs to the kitchen, where their fates were sealed. It was over once they reached the giant hole as Louis had died and Francis was incapped. We killed them all before they left the apartments. Score: 29

Level 2:

A much better showing thank you very much. We made it through relatively easily. However, I saw the Witch and while my team was horded... I shot it on impulse. (It was in the middle of a mandatory passage subway train). I got incapped instantly, if you know how the Witch works... and had about 30 health by the time anyone actually shot it off me. My fault, my stupidity. But the rest of the time we were pretty epic, killing the Tank rapidly or more so... he was so stupid he stayed in one spot and tried to throw rocks at us, while he was on fire. He died. We ran through the last part with some ease, which was a nice change of pace for us. UNTIL SOMEONE SHOT THE CAR! Who did it? I dunno. I just know it wasn't me. Score: 1295

Again, they stunk. One dude quit, I think. Well they made it to the station where we jumped, smoked, and boomed them simutaneously... and then another guy quit, leaving two. We incap one... and then he dies. They make it to the actual subway tracks and Uri ingeniously smokes a guy towards the Witch. Intelligently, the guy (I think it was godinme777) shot at Uri hoping to kill him. Got the Witch, killed Uri, and was killed by the Witch. Same spot as it was for me. Ha ha ha ha!!! Two guys left... We boom them, and incap them at the same time. One more guy leaves, leaving godinme777. Score: 36

(Oh ya, during this level they continuously tried to vote us out of the game. A "Kick Baconautor" vote was voted down fast, followed ten seconds later by a "Kick AlNeezo11" vote, voted down too, and then I laughed and told Uri he was next... lo and behold "Kick NeeKiller" followed, and was again voted down. We were all like, are they stupid or something?)

Level 3:

At this point we're expecting a normal end to our game: where the final guy quits. However, he is joined by SHAWN WAN. So, I guess it gave him some confidence. Later on through our turn two more joined up, which ended our hastily made remarks. The Tank spawned once we left the diner, and I tried to draw him towards the gas station... he didn't follow me. So I just killed a ton of zombies, then ran up and helped finish the Tank. Oz got incapped, however, since the Tank focussed exclusively on him. Dumb Tank. We hopped up the lift and got into the ammo room. The rest was relatively smooth sailing... until the tank room. We usually head to the side room with its manhole and jump down at the same time. However, Oz fell into the manhole and I followed to make sure we were all covered. Uri and Jordan (Ya, Jordan was switching in now for John). stayed up top as Jordan healed and got a medpack. Just as Uri was jumping down he got smoked. I tossed a perfect 'tov, which lit the Smoker and killed it... but it was too late for Uri, he was incapped. If he had had about ten health more he may have survived to make it. I tried Uri. We made it through the rest of the level, and got horded at the safehouse. I locked myself inside, healed, and then saved my teammates, who then healed. Score: 761

Alright, SHAWN WAN led to the quit of godinme777 and would have led to me quitting as well. They ran into the parking lot with the gas station... killed our Tank... Jordan, you're the worst Tank, LOL. They then blew up the gas station, hid in the "secret room" above the station, and SHAWN WAN ran out... and into the flames of the gas station. I-D-I-O-T!!! Hunter jumps him, incaps him, and he dies really fast. How much stupider do you get? They make it up to the roof... but not much farther as the rest of them are easily picked off. (During this time godinme777 and one other guy quit). Score: 38

Level 4:

CommittedTEDDY becomes my new archrival for this game. I choose him to hate. I rush outside, and am immediately smoked. Nobody comes out to help me and I lose 50 health. Right outside the safehouse thank you very much. >:( Anyhow, we get upstairs and move out pretty rapidly. We rushed up to the elevator and fought off the horde. I was pinned three times and smoked twice... boomed twice as well. How I lived, and only took about ten damage, I dunno. Inside the elevator we waited for the next surprise... As we exited, there was the Tank. Boom, boom, boom. He throws John off the side (Jordan is in for another person now) incaps me, and incaps Jordan. Uri tries to live but is incapped by a horde, a Smoker, and the Tank. I was a bit ticked. Score: 138

However, I made it my goal to attack and kill CommittedTEDDY. Shawn WAN, the dumbass, was quickly team-killed after some more stupid actions that made him a liability. We weren't doing too hot until they reached the elevator hallway. (SHAWN WAN quit by then.) I smoked then, Jordan pinned them, etc. We did incremental damage (with me focussing on CommittedTEDDY of course) until they barely made it into the elevator. I climbed up the side as the "unspawned" Smoker (since you travel faster if you haven't spawned yet) and when I spawned at the top... I slipped off and fell all the way to the bottom. LAME!!! But, they all died right there at the elevator. Score: 84

Finale:

Here's the STUPID part. I hate quitters, I really do. So I run up the stairs and up the ladders. We make it easily to the room on the roof, asside from the fact I tok fifty damage for intelligently jumpung off the wrong side of the roof. I heal up, and just as I finish... I call in the Chopper. My three teammate all jump off and leavethe room. I'm alone with two controllers: NeeKiller (who died) and AlNeezo11 (who will never quit). So I'm alone, trying to fend off the horde by myself. I do alright, until two Hunters both try pinning me down... and one gets me. Rats!!! I didn;t even bother recording the score it was so bad. It makes me mad when people get all egotistical and think: We're going to win! We're up by 2000 points, there's no way they can do it. So I vote to kick Baconautor, and I don't know how... but I managed to kick him (which kicked Baconautor(1) as well)... Leaving me with my two controllers.

Unlike my dumb comrades, I have seen people score 2000+ points on the last level of No Mercy. And given the skill I have seen from them as Survivors, I wouldn't have doubted that with a lack of Special Infected that they would have scored 2000+ points... So I took it upon myself to at least kill CommittedTEDDY or someone, keeping it to only three at most. It was a hard fight as I could only send one Special Infected at a time after them, and they all ganged the Tank and killed it within seconds. Well, to hop on my high-horse I did pretty well. I did smoke Louis (CommittedTEDDY) for 20 damage, and incapped Bill with the Tank, but the real genius showed when I incapped Francis. I chased Francis to a remote corner of the roof with the Tank, and incapped him in a corner. I chased Bill for a bit, but then got killed. Bill rescued Francis and ran back to the room in the middle. Francis stayed to heal up. He was really close to the helipad, and ran up when the helicopter showed up. I Smoked him (with green health) as AlNeezo11, then NeeKiller spawned as the Tank... right under the helicopter. CommittedTEDDY jumped out of the helicopter to save Francis, but guess who was right behind him... the TANK. I shot him into the wall, and chased him down until he got incapped... Only two people survived!!! And I was working all alone my friends... All alone.

We won: 3090 to 935

Mwah ha ha ha ha!!! Mess with the best and you go down like the rest.

MOVIES FTW

Though these guys appear to SUCK at Left 4 Dead, this movie is still REALLY funny.

I love the epic fail at 2:13
Also, the smoke at 2:20 is almost identical to what happened to Jordan when we played Expert that one time, and won.
I would die the same way Bill dies at 2:47... I always say that.

APRIL!

Hey guys, it's April! Only a few weeks of school left, but I digress. TO L4D!

Last night was mayhem, we started at around 11:20 pm, ha ha. So Jordan and Uri fought over NeeKiller, but Uri was more mature and gave up the fight. Way to show him up Uri. And I finally got some batteries (thanks John) for my controller. I need to buy some more, or there'll be no more Left 4 Dead! LES GASPOS!!!

Francis: "I say we just do it."

AlNeezo11- Me (who else?) - Francis
NeeKiller- Jordan- Bill (Long story short: He called Francis, I got Francis, and he was too late to get anybody besides Bill, who he hates.)
Baconautor- Uri- Louis
Baconautor(1)- John- Zoey

Blood Harvest: Versus

A typical Awesome-Squad victory... you'll see the pattern.

Level 1:
We ran super fast, as is typical in Blood Harvest 1... and we made it through relatively unharmed... until the end, where I ran into the safehouse alone to heal up and left my team behind. I usually do, it's nothing special. Score: 1092

They weren't so lucky. At the begining of the level, someone was smoked back towards the starting camp area... and then someone was forced off the cliff. Another person came to help, but was shoved off. Two people just hung there... someone was already dead, and the final person was pinned. I laughed so hard at the fact they made it about 10 feet... and then fell to their deaths. Score: 14 (LOL!) I did 495 damage to survivors. I also got FIVE Hunter jumps in ONE life, 3 were Francis 2 were Zoey.

Level 2:
Much more epic than level 1. (Have you ever noticed how Louis says "RELOADIN?" It's pretty funny!) So we made it pretty far before we ran into the Tank... and when we did we were at the train yard. The Tank followed me into a corner, but for some reason I was able to just run right past him. Lame Tank. Though John had low health, we made it fairly quickly to the safehouse from there. We healed up inside, as is our custom... and I stood in the door... and it closed on me.. I WAS STUCK! Stupid door... so I opened it again. Jeez, that hurts when a door is closed on you, especially giant heavy-duty metal doors! Score: 1116 (Me? I got the most kills: 119)

Has anybody noticed we usually score 111?

During their turn, two members quit leaving Amitch2744 all alone, but he went for it. At the bottom of the starting stairwell a Boomer jumped down and was blown to pieces. Jordan, in all his intellect, was pretty impressed. "That was a GREAT boom by the Smoker..." Naturally, I gave him crap about it. "Ya, the Smoker is great at booming Jordan." Anyhow, when Amitch made it to the room with the alarmed door, he refused to open it for a good five minutes or so. So we just kept attacking for fun. We assumed he was hoping someone would join, but then changed our opinion to the idea he didn't know how to OPEN a door. Eventually he opend the door and we threw him a party. Unfortunately, I got really sick and threw up all over Zoey and Louis. The party animals followed up and incapped someone... When all four of us were dead I was stoked: "Hey, we're all dead! Horray!" Anyhow, when he made it to the train yard we killed him... and it was round over (NPCs don't count in Versus). Score: 77 (Not bad, considering I boomed all four of them about 3 times)

Level 3:
It was an epic race to the finish! We all ran at full speed to see whole would make it to the safehouse first. I made it to the train-handle first and moved the train... but I got smoked and Jordan saved me... barely. But John and Uri ran ahead, up the fallen bridge. Uri got stuck with a zed and John won the race to the safehouse. Uri followed closely behind, and then somehow I made it up next. Jordan was all like: "If I didn't save you I wouldn't have come in last." I replied: "If you didn't save me you would have come in last, as you would have been third... and there would have been no FOURTH." Jeez Jordan, get with the program! The most surprising aspect was that John laid low the whole time... with Uri up front almost the whole time... and at the last second, as Uri raced me to the handlebar... John crept into position to take the lead... SNEAKY BASTARD!!! LOL. Anyhow, we all survived... but when we got to the safehouse... Uri ran outside... and GOT INCAPPED RIGHT OUTSIDE THE DOOR BY A ZOMBIE!!! LOL... And then we closed the door on him... and then saved him later after laughing a lot-> Score: 1496

Amitch quit.

As I said, a typical ending... the Awesome-Squad kicks so much butt that they force the opponents to quit... EVEN IN BLOOD HARVEST!!!

Does Anyone Remember This Glitch? I Remember When I Found It... John Was Yelling At Me To Drop The Canister, So When I Got Inside... I Dropped It... And Ironically It Landed On Him... He Meant For Me To Get Rid Of It BEFORE We Entered... Cuz He Already Knew About It!!! LOL!
