How to play Left 4 Dead (2).

I thought about stopping to get some cider, then I remembered I banned myself from drunk video games if I care about being terrible.
 
So much for Gas and Ash on the same team being unbeatable. Clearly Vs. has become Gas's mortal enemy.

Also who was the team that destroyed the shit out of Dead Center? Was it me, Gas, Ash, Pez, or was it Terrik in there? I have already forgotten.

So.... Painful....

Also, It was Terrik with us on advanced dead center that went super smooth.

I tried playing Raccoon City Nemesis, and it's interesting, but damn it is impossible to keep the bots alive. Stage 3 is tough to keep them alive, because a giant explosion will kill them if they lag behind you. However, stage 4, the Clocktower, is just not possible. You have to climb a long ladder to the top, and when you come back down, the bots will just ignore the ladder and fall to their deaths.

I'm not sure I can recommend this one for a co-op run. I guess it depends on what people are looking for. I think it would be extremely difficult on Advanced, because there are lots of tank fights, and often in tight quarters. Also, it's a big long scavenger hunt with puzzles (some more complex than others). There is so much backtracking, and not all the puzzle items highlight. I was having fun, but I can see @GasBandit getting frustrated. If you're not into the scavenger hunt thing, it's not going to be any fun.
 
So what you're saying Pez, is that I should have been hanging out at my computer this morning instead of laying in bed designing Happy Homes. ;)

Also, I feel last night in Vs. proved that we don't need to worry about team balance so much anymore, because the Dei/Pez/Null team used to get wrecked, and now THE TABLES HAVE TURNED!

To be fair, though, if I hadn't given in to the temptation to break my "do not throw rocks" tank rule on the bridge, I might have caught Pez before he got to where a smoker finally snagged him just short of the helicopter. But of course we could have soaked the points that awarded you had not Terrik died RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE on level 2 >_<

So in summary, Dammit, Terrik.
 
Really, I can't drink tonight because I have to get up at 6am, and I bought it for the weekend, BUT if things start going south who knows. :p
