L4D Demo: Expert Pwnage
Posted by Ernest Kwan | Filed under Synthetic Interaction
So yeah, just got Left 4 Dead 2 days ago, have been blowing zombie brains out ever since. The game is WICKED awesome! (To learn more about L4D, go to http://www.l4d.com). Anyhow, beating the game in Advance mode was cake for the most part, so my brother and I decided to give EXPERT mode a crack at it (the highest difficulty in the game). Unfortunately, do to the lack of available players at the time, only my brother and I were available to take on the hordes of zombies that infest Mercy city. I played Bill, my brother played Louis, and later, Douglas assumed the role of Zoey. And so our journey begins…
The hospital was cake, period. Only thing we had to be careful of was not to trigger any sirens and create to big of an explosion, which would induce a Zombie Panic (a huge call out to the zombie masses). Even though we did not induce any, expert mode really cranked up the difficulty by unleashing a Zombie Panic anyways, which at several points, overwhelmed us especially when we were out in the open streets from the apartment. My brother was equipped with the submachine gun, while I was equipped with the shotty. Our two PC counterparts were equipped with the same arsenal. The round that had us make it through the end saw us mow down waves of 2 dozen or more zombies, in quick succession. My brother, being the rambo that he is, took point subconsciously, often leading us into a barrage of trigger happy frenzy. Luckily, being the point person also means being the bait, which is exactly how myself and the computer counterparts took advantage of this array. Whenever my brother would get pinned down or smoked, we would allow the zombies to pile up on my bro, and when a critical mass was reached, a dozen slugs swept all of the zombies away, typically in time to save my brother from being ripped apart indefinitely. Unlike the Advance mode, the underground room leading towards the Safe Room is infested with zombies also, but judging from the way its setup, if you have a pipe bomb or molotov, you can easily flush it out before reaching safety…
Exit scene 1, and enter scene 2. The subway is extremely difficult in Expert mode. Not only are the number of zombies doubled if not tripped in every encounter in this scene, but the Tank or the Witch may spawn, and in some cases, both spawn! After losing round after round, our friend Douglas (DarkDays) joined up with us. After losing repeatedly from undisciplined warfare, we decided to pace ourselves more cautiously (we typically get wiped out by a tank or a witch, or from getting lost when the action got a bit too hot). This is where we took a much more tactical approach, which I will explain further. Most importantly, SURVIVAL IS ABOUT CONTROL, its not about ELIMINATION. There are 2 distinct differences between the two
Unfortunately, we only had 3 human players in the game.
Point - My brother, assuming the same role, was required to do less strafing when charging up front. I would joke to him saying that this is not counterstrike, its one thing to dodge another person’s aim with a gun, but its another thing to dodge a wall of zombies advancing you. After toning down his footwork a bit, he reduced the amount of friendly-fire casualties. Weapon of choice was the submachine gun or the carbine. Reason why? My brother has the best shot, and with a 50 ammo clip, the submachine gun and carbine offer the highest kill % potential if weld by a person with a good aim. Coupled with my brother’s dexterous agility, my brother is quite incredible… Until he has to reload. Which leads us to the importance of the next person…
Suppressor - Douglas throughout played the role of a suppressor. The suppressor’s role was to provide suppressive firepower to the frontlines (aka. my brother), especially when my brother emptied his clip. This was very important as it prevented two things: it prevented the unnecessary unloading of firepower on the same wave of zombies in which one person can easily ward off alone; and secondly, it prevented pin-downs and smokes as when the point person had to reload, the suppressor would step up and continue with the barrage. Weapon of choice again here is some sort of semi-automatic, such as the sub machine gun or the carbine.
Support - The computer played the support. It would randomly follow one of us and provide additional firepower. Only problem is, the computer typically made some newbie mistakes (such as chasing down zombies, saving a soon to be incapitated player, etc). The computer has the aim, just no brains. However, if this person was to be replaced by a human player, this player would typically be supporting the point or the suppressor, depending on the nature of the map. On maps with lots of zombie stacks, it is best this person aid the suppressor, as to provide the party with more endurance. If the map spawns hard mobs but less mobs, it is best this person support the point, as to provide additional spike damage.
Clutch - The clutch is the role I played throughout the game. The clutch hangs in the back typically, and provides a full view of the situation and relays the situation. Should we through a pipe bomb up front? Should we charge? Where do we retreat to? The clutch makes those calls. But more importantly, the clutch serves 2 major tactical actions: 1) Provide cover for the rear as the front advances; 2) Is the last line of defense to the party, and is in charge of saving the other 3 player’s butts! This means rectifying zombie pile ups, and rescue missions. The preferred weapon of choice in my opinion for this person is the pump shotgun, and if available, the automatic shotgun. The shotgun was only used in situations where we were getting swarmed. At all times, it is important to have a full reload, as this person’s main duty was to ensure that zombie swarms do not overwhelm the other 3 player’s suppressive firepower, and in addition, to be prepared to save pinned down players. The shotgun was used typically when a player was pinned down and attracting mounds of zombies. After the zombies are piled up, several controlled shotgun bursts will sweep the zombies away for good, facilitating for a rescue. This person typically hangs silent in the back and lets the rest do most of the work in less stressful situations (providing cover fire), but in stressful situations of life and death, the clutch has to step it up.
The subway is fairly easy, our formation was simple, it was a diamond shaped array when advancing with my brother infront, suppressors on the mid-sides, and the clutch in the rear. When swarmed, this array would would become a T shaped formation, with everyone except the point person hugging a wall or corner. What this allows us to do is that if the point does get pinned down, it allows for the other 3 players to rain down ammo at the stack without falling victim to friendly-fire. Furthermore, in these situations, we were spaced at least 5 yards from each other. This gave us enough distance from each other to localize pile-ups, rather than getting mowed down all at once.
The scene starts off with us jumping down a hole to the subway station. This is pretty easy for the most part, with most of the zombies being cleared before we even exit the gate from the safe room. The next part is fairly straight forward too, usually we encounter a boomer, 1 or 2 hunters, and some smokers from behind. Again, advancing in the diamond-like array works well here as it provides complete 360 coverage.
Once we hit the bottom of the escalators to the ticket booths, if you’re lucky, you may find yourself some nice handy new weapons (carbine, auto shotty, sniper), or, some pipe bombs, or nothing at all. Once we make an exit back to the rail side, this is where we typically get run over by 3-4 waves of zombies, coming from both sides. In this situation, we go T formation, with my brother directing the zombie traffic down to the bottom. We typically have full health up to here. In the worst case scenario, we may run into a tank here, but from the games we played, we did not encounter the tank here.
Once top-side, we advance forward along the lines of crippled subway trains. For the most part, we took cover inside the cabins of the subways, making a standoff from all the varieties of zombies that come our way. In this situation, my brother, Douglas and I were inside, while the stupid computer kept running off on his own. We lost the computer here most of the time. Anyways, same array setup, brother point, Douglass suppressive, and me at the rear. Worked real well, we might lose 20-40hp at this part.
The next part has us advancing to the next set of trains, again same thing, however, this is where we typically encounter a tank. Depending on how lady luck feels, if the Tank pulverizes me first, we are typically okay because Douglas and my bro can shoot him down from range with their sub machine guns. If my brother goes down, its a bit harder, as doing any damage with a shotty at a range is pitiful. We died 2 times when we encountered the tank, drew once (I threw a pipe bomb at the tank and a bunch of zombies, but just before they died, the tank threw an ash tray at me), but the last time, we chopped it down (luckily because the tank went for the computer player, haha). Anyways, the next set of tracks can get pretty freaky, the witch spawned here on us, and also, we induced 3 zombie panics. Good luck finding the queen in the sea of zombies! We made fort in the last subway cabin, and luckily, we survived, though by now, both me and my brother were bleeding to death and limping on 1hp. Douglas was in the red bleeding out still, but was still able to walk right. The end of the tunnel has us taking a flight of steps to the basement of a building. Its all dark here, and depending on the spawn, you may get a tank or a witch here. However, we encountered both the witch and the tank already in the instance, so we knew they were not going to be in the basement. This part is simple though, if the witch does spawn, simply hug the wall and sneak your way past it to the flight of steps that leads to the main floor of the building. If you get a tank, use the pillars to block. If you get a huge zombie infestation, just get the point person to snipe all of them from afar. After 5 minutes of sniping, my brother finally cleared the room and we made our advance to the top-side. Again here, use the point person to snipe everyone from the cramped corridor, as to not draw too much aggro and to take out as many before entering the boiler room. To the right is a pit with a mounted machine gun. But before you go there, make sure you find any molotovs or pipe bombs. Get the point person to man the mounted machine gun, and have the suppressor watch the front and to kill any zombies that gets behind the range of fire of the machine gun. The clutch needs to watch the hole in the pit. Once setup, flip the switch…
Once the message comes up that rescue is coming this way, have the clutch toss a molotov into the hole. This molotov will last about 15-20 seconds which is good enough to catch everything that attempts to come up on fire. But, it won’t kill the zombies, it’ll make them moan and slow them down but thats about it, they will still try to climb up. Just take the shotty and easily pick off the zombies as they come up in droves of 2-3. Always have a reserve of half of your shotty ammo at all times, in case the front side needs help. Therefore, try to use controlled bursts, and only shoot with shotty if you see 2 or 3 of them bunch up together. This way you don’t waste a slug just on a per zombie basis.
On the front side, toss a pipebomb or molotov into the center of the room if you like just to slow down the zombies. My brother did an excellent job with the mounted machine gun, mowing everything that came from the opposite side of the pit. Douglas held the line, and no zombies made it pass into our pit. The molotov ran wore out, but by then, there was only a dozen zombies left coming from the bottom, which were easily picked off with the shotty.
After a 3-4 minute fire frenzy, we cleared the room, we scouted the top of the room, flushed out the balconies of any remaining zombies. We saw the safety room in sight! We limped over there, closed the door, enter the cutscene. w00t!

Definitely agree with what you stated. Your explanation was certainly the easiest to understand. I tell you, I usually get irked when folks discuss issues that they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail right on the head and explained out everything without complication. Maybe, people can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

I think that gold or silver bullion is more preferable investment than stocks. People think that price of gold will rise again. Look the site about Engelhard Silver Prospector

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case. Ensure that it is 2.5 centimeters or slightly more.

Learning to be a really good mother or father suggests a comprehension from your child’s needs. View your own little one and understand the signs or symptoms associated with what they are immediately after.

Many people think that financial sprad betting is too risky. Subconsciously, they feel that investing in shares is ethically acceptable whereas betting has down market connotations and morally reprehensible. That is a pity, because the truth is quite different. You buy a share because you believe that the price will rise and you will make a profit. You bet on a share price for exactly the same reason. The only practical difference between buying a share, and betting on the movement of the share price is that you need much more ready cash to buy the share. The costs of buying a share are much greater than placing a bet.Open a GFT Account Hello and welcome to my redesigned site on financial spread betting, which I hope you find both useful and informative, and which reflects the growing demand for informative sites about this increasingly popular way of trading in the financial markets. As I hope you will see I have tried to cover as many different aspects of this apparently simple, yet complex trading method, with examples, explanations and illustrations, as well as demystifying some of the more obscure terms which are often confusing, even to the more experienced trader. As you will see from reading the site and following my trading strategies and advice, financial spread betting, as a way of trading in the financial markets, has much to offer, but it also has many dangers and pitfalls for the unwary. I will highlight all of these for you, so that having read and absorbed all the information, you can then make your own decision on whether spread betting the financial markets is the right trading system for you.

Financial spread betting is a leveraged tool that gives investors the opportunity to trade the financial markets without ever taking physical ownership of the underlying instrument. This means that the trader/investor can speculate in the direction of any financial instrument, whether it is specific shares, currencies, commodities or indices without ever owning them. In the financial markets there are standard contract sizes. For example for the FTSE 100 index contract the standard market size is £10. With financial spread betting the investor nominates his own stake size, for example £2 per point. The bet is settled as the difference between the purchase and the sell price.Financial Spreads is appealing to ever greater numbers of investors for several reasons, not least of which is the absence of capital gains tax on profits (unlike conventional share trading, where CGT applies to trading gains in many countries), and the lack of stamp duty on transactions (most interesting in the UK; strictly speaking, the transaction is a bet, rather than an investment - hence the name.) However, by its very nature financial spread betting is more risky than traditional, fixed odds betting, or conventional traditional share trading, where participants are usually a little more protected. If you judge wrong, you are likely to lose a great deal in the absence of a stop loss and any losses made on a spread bet cannot be offset against capital gains on ordinary investments.The costs associated with financial spread betting are included in the spread (the difference between the bid and the offer price). Therefore the wider the spread, the more you pay to trade. So when considering a company to spread bet always compare the spread. The good news about the spreads is that these are generally getting tighter due to increased competition and explosive growth as investors are beginning to realise the advantages of financial spread betting; thus making the system more efficient.

This may not be as important to you when you are just starting out and have a low level of capital but do keep it in mind.There are a couple of reasons why you should consider it if you are to take your trading seriously. The most successful traders out there have a number of accounts.The first reason for this is the ability to get the best quote. Financial Spread Betting is hard. Anything you can use to your advantage is great, even a half a point on the spread will make a difference.By having more than one Financial Spread Betting account you will be able to read multiple quotes at the same time (with a little practice!). You will then be able to trade of the better one.It will take time for you to reach this level but if you can trade this way then you will be ahead of a lot of traders.The second reason is contingency. These days spread betting trading platforms are a lot more stable. They don’t hang as much and they are very rarely down. The spread betting companies put a lot of time and money into making sure that this doesn’t happen.But…What if it does? What if the financial markets are going crazy and you want to trade? When you log on…whoops…you can’t log on.
