No, they still do. Theres far too many people on this game that are under the impression they are playing counter strike. Running off on your own with an m16 and then whining when you get horribly, horribly mauled by a hunter does not constitute any level of help. Ive played with far too many people who just say "GOGOGO YOU SLOW [bleep]S", die, and complain I didnt do enough to save them.

Parental control's
About a year or two ago, I wouldve agreed. It used to be somewhere that anything would go, but nowadays its barely risque. Its been overrun by 12 year olds with "HURR AM EYE HAWT?" or "POST ENDING IN 0 HAS TO BE AN HERO WITH PICS LOL" who seemingly think that spewing out dated memes and stupid phrases from yesteryear to be high-larious. That is, of course, unless you mean to say that copypasta and reposts are deemed worthy of scarring a child for life. Parental controls are fickle. Unless you get a really 'devoted' parent to trawl the internet hourly and update a list of websites to their hosts.txt or something, theres always going to be one website too many to block. And even then its pretty easy to get past 90% of these programs that advertise "Child proof safety!* [*Unless your child is over 3]" for stupid parents who think itll make the internet a better place for their absolute saint, wouldnt-harm-or-[bleep]-to-a-fly child prodigy. I used to have such controls when I was small. They werent very good and they blocked the most obvious of websites, but because they were 'off-limits' it just provoked me. "Get past me, you know you want to" it would taunt me. And so it did. So I did. I purposefully went around it just to sit there all smug with a grin on my face saying that nothing will be held from me. Then, a few years later, when we updated and such, the block wasnt there. I was unrestricted. This just left me with no challenge or purpose, no real reason to visit such websites. Which meant I didnt. I cant remember what this reaction or psychological thing is of "You cant have it, therefore you want it more" is, but thats all these blocks will do. Creating boundaries only creates ways of getting over them.

I wouldve gotten so very angry if I didnt get it. Rather lucky I managed to not shoot with it. I didnt realise that left clicking on a weapon meant to pick it up as well as E. And yeah, Francis shot her for no real reason. Its infuriating when they do that. The difficulty was also normal, not easy, so team damage was on but very very little. Send me invites if you would like help/help me to get any achievements, ive not got much better to do. Especially for any Expert runs, its gonna be way too hard to get them with bots.

I hid in the nearest closet for about 30 seconds and all my partners respawned. So it was okay, but I still died on the lift. That was the point where I had to restart most of the time. And the finale really is easy, just have everyone up on the balcony, one person on the turret and others giving cover fire from the sides/roof. Occasionally throw a molotov down the stairs to stop anything coming up and just pummel the tank as much as possible with the turret before it reaches you. Then the moment someone says the boat is here, just all go to the jetty and put a molotov across the narrow path to it and hold off for a few seconds. Id say my favourite is No Mercy, it just feels most 'real', if you get what I mean. Blood harvest is just annoying since its easy for anything to be anywhere and you cant see bugger all past the foliage and Dead Air is haven for tanks. But ive got to do Dead Air again since I didnt get the achievement for it last time. Really annoying, but im so glad it didnt not count my expert run. I wouldve raged so very hard if it did.

Since dracion passed on his turn.. HARD MODE TIME [blurred names or else its easy mode] I appreciate this may be hard, so after a few attempts ill drop a massive google bomb hint. Ive talked about it before, I think, so someone might remember. Or maybe youve played it before, who knows.

HAHAHA 3 AND A HALF HOURS LATER AND WHATS THAT? OH RIGHT ITS EXPERT COMPLETE. [hide=15 restarts, 8 deaths, 31 incaps and 20 medkits later..][/hide] NO LEVEL OR AMOUNT OF OBSCENITY CAN DESCRIBE IT. [hide=WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME][/hide] TANKS [bleep]ING EVERYWHERE JESUS CHRIST. Then again, Death Toll - I find - is the easiest campaign.

Left 4 Dead
A few notes about achievements if you didnt already know; [*:3pdb8nzk]Akimbo Assassin [Pistol only] - You cant use the gun turrets either. I accidentally used it during the finale, so I didnt get it. [*:3pdb8nzk]Unbreakable [No healing] - You can use pills. If youre partner(s) are trying to heal you, switch to your medkit and theyll stop. If you keep holding it theyll give you their pills instead after a while. [*:3pdb8nzk]Stand Tall [No incap] - Falling off the side of a building because a smoker dragged you/you slipped does not count. (At least it didnt for me, or this may be a glitch) Achievements are still so glitchy, ive completed Dead Air twice now with no award for it.

It just needs to be a zombie that hasnt seen you yet/been alerted. Just make sure after you hit him you dont shoot him after or its likely that will finish him off. And I have both of the hunter ones now. Just use the shotgun when it pounces at you, as long as one of the bullets from the slug hits, it'll count. Or you could try to be pro and use the sniper to get it. I might try an easy mode speedrun to get the pistols-only and no healing [+ no witch/no team damage, if possible] awards tomorrow, seems easy enough, bar perhaps the finale and points where you trigger multiple hordes.

Christ no. Whoever does that needs to be shot with a staple gun in the groin area. The only abridged series I enjoyed was the Yugioh ones. Happy now? MU is being a [bleep] to download Kannagi ep7 from at the moment. I dont want your bloody premium, just give me the file.

I assume thats the point of the 'Spinal Tap' award. And has anyone managed to get the 'Crownd' achievement? Single headshot a witch? Ive done it in 2, but never 1. And does anyone know if the no healing achievement allows pain pills? I could probably do that if it doesnt. But I did managed to get the 0 incaps. PROTIP: Dont dally with tanks or witches. Take the sniper and use its range. [hide=Advanced, 0 incaps.][/hide] Still cant do the sewers on No Mercy on expert, though, sewers are a boomers best friend.

It doesnt, theyre in two seperate folders for a start. I deleted my demo while the game was decrypting.

Yeah, instant is a bit too harsh. Especially if we assume atleast 1 infected will be a boomer. Instant hordes? No thanks. Though I think it should atleast be a lot lower during finales, thats where you want a lot of pressure. It is. Just stand in line with a witch and drag any survivor towards you, chances are youll either pull them close enough to alert the witch or the others will shoot at you and alert her anyway. Yeah, I spawned as a tank at the very beginning of the second level of No Mercy, literally before they even got to the escalators and chased everyone straight back to the 'safety' room. Also, you can punch cars if youre a tank. My team was completely killed by one as it did that. Tanks are outrageously stronger to what they were on the demo, I swear.

Left 4 Dead
I realise its to keep it balanced, but 20 seconds is still a tad too high, maybe 15. And I wish I could atleast like get into position while it says "YOU ARE DEAD LOOK AT THE SURVIVORS THAT JUST KILLED YOU HAHAHA".

Left 4 Dead
Haha oh wow, japan. Ive found some achievements to be buggy. I completed Death Toll but got no achievement for it the first time and ive smacked plenty of hunters in the face when they leap at me but with no achievement. Ive also puked twice on the survivors but didnt get the achievement either. And yeah, if you dont puke when youre a boomer youve wasted a decent spawn. I hope they do something about the long spawn time though, 20 seconds is a bit much.

Left 4 Dead
Seconded so much. I cant even seem to complete the 'demo' levels on No Mercy on expert now. Tanks appear waaay more frequently. Ive completed both No Mercy and Death Toll on advanced and netted myself 18 achievements between them. Im looking to do either the other 2 campaigns on advanced or try No Mercy on expert, god knows how ill clear the finale, I died 6 times on advanced alone. Versus mode is incredibly fun, just leaping about as a hunter is awesome and then whomping people as the tank is HAHA OH WOW I AM HUGE. If we compare TF2 to the zombies in versus; Hunter - Scout [WHEEEEEEE] Smoker - Sniper [if youre not at range, you'll die] Boomer - Engineer [Huge damage from hordes but takes time] Tank - EVERYTHING PUT TOGETHER [CRY SOME MORE BABIES] I managed to OHTK all of my partners by shooting the petrol station while they were under it. MAGGOTS.

Ill probably edit this post with my thoughts in another 2 hours when the decryption finally finishes. Why not just leave out a key file or something and then when its released just let us download it? Crikey this is taking its time.
