Online - As an infected, i was playing with some quality survivors, who were backed up in the river awaiting the boat for pickup. They had a good position, even faught off a Tank. Killed me several times as a Boomer/Hunter/Smoker. Then the boat came, and i was like, "Shoot, these guys are going to win" as i was getting blown away as a Boomer. Then it let me be a Tank and it was ON!!! They approached the boat as i came down the path leading to the dock, they saw me... fired upon me and instead of just getting onto the boat all at once, they panicked, one guy threw a molitov and tried to block me with fire. But i threw a piece of concrete, knocking one down and i ran through the fire and knocked 2 away from the boat while the other ran. I stood on the boat, kept my ground as littered them with asphalt chunks, while they trained thier fire on me (since i was the primary thing preventing them from ending the round) they dropped their guard to my allies who peppered them with bile, causing a horde to come, Hunter got another guy, and before you know it the 3 were down, the one i initially knocked down was still shooting at my from the ground on the dock, but since he only had P-shooter, i took my time and kindly put him out of his misery with a few pummles to his head and body. A true classic round of events.

Can't forget last night. I was playing as the Tank, in a wide open street level were the survivors could out run me. Too bad Francis didn't have the speed to out pace the car i nocked on top of him. Instant Kill!!! My method is clear and simple as a Tank, concentrate on 1 survivor. My experience is that if you kill just 1, it pretty much dooms the rest of the group. I've never seen 3 make it all the way. Once i gets pinned and others try to help, that's when their backs get turned from a boomer and Smoker in the background.

Nothing feels better than when you enter a game, and next thing you know you spawn as a Tank and pretty much mop the floor with everybody. Did that the other day and decimated all the survivors in like 20 seconds... end of round.

But what i came here to discuss i and my infected bretheren managed to kill the survivors right at the door of safe house. 2 of them actually made it inside, but they were hurt, whereas two of the other ones were outside on red, 1 incapaciated. They kept trying to help their friends outside, so i snuck as the Boomer and nailed the 2 in the safe house, they got me, but as the hord arrived a hunter nailed one, while the other one couldn't get to him right away because of the horde, eventually he faught them off and freed his pal but by then they were both on red. In the mean time the two outside were both still struggling. Because they killed me so quick i spawned again as a Boomer nailing the same duo again, and hat a hunter for support, while a smocker grabbed Chloe, and prevented her from helping up her downed pal, those two were done, and the two inside never made it back out the safe room, because they were taken down by my Boomer horde and Hunter, shame because the health packs were right there... they just didnt' get a chance to use them.

LEft for Dead 2 story...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was one of those time i had wished i taped myself playing. I had started a game on the Parish board. I was alone on my squad ( bots of Ellis/Nick/Rochelle). The other guy was solo with his squad of bots. Now everyone knows that 1st level of Parish is rediculously short. I was up first and unfortunately only made it half way as the other player spawed into tank and killed me and my mates prior to the halfway point. His turn up for bat, and he got away from my initial horde at the docks... i even when i became a tank he slipped past me and since he was still green, was fast enough to make it to the safe room. I swore loudly as he closed the door in my face, so instead of beating at the door like most do, i played my position and ducked in the the little alley cove to the right of the safe room. I turned to notice the silloutes of his bots still alive... and on green, my bots were stupidly beating on the safe room door, only to get shot up and killed by him. And his bots got closer and closer, i then realized why there were so succcessful... real players had joined in and were mowing down my AI controlled teamates. I still sand tucked away out of site, and they approached the street of the safe room, at the same time i figured the guy inside can see their silloutes approaching, and figured i was either dead by now or gone off to fight them. I timed it just right, as he opened the door, i circle around the steps and beat the *beep* of him. Any other safe room, he might of had a chance, but with those narrow aisles with shelves, he was a sitting duck, 3 hits later and he was down! I immediately went outside his squad obviously didn't know a tank was in the safe room because i emerged and layeth the smacketh downeth on the rest of them. They had been slowed down by the mindless horde, so they couldn't outrun around me. So just like that, i ended all 4 of those guys, and snatched victory outta of the jaws of defeat. Only thing i couldn't figure out was... why did my meter of losing the tank never run out. It literally stopped at 25%. Perhaps when you are playing without human teamates it doesn't switch to the AI bots of Ellis/Nick/Rochelle?

Short story here. I was at the start of the Parish (LFD2) and i was on the only human player on my squad. I hate playing like that because if the opposition has atleast 2 human players, you are at a serious dissadvantage. So i started off as the Charger, and hid behind the van. I waited till the players were in direct line - sight as they got within a few of the steps i charged. Got my guy, knocked 2 of the guys outta the way, before i knew it, the other guy in front of them didn't know what happened until he got grabbed by a jockey. I pan the camera, and 2 hunters have the 2 guys that i knocked back. So literally... their entire team was incapasitated in a matter of 5 seconds.
