Tips.
Survivor Tips.
Listen for the Special infected,always. Smoker's usually come from
behind unless there is a witch ahead (Versus.)

In Campaign there will be almost always only be ONE special infected at a time UNLESS you just finished killing a tank.

In Campaign there is a spawning system, it usually goes, Smoker, Hunter, Boomer. (I can't remember off the top of my head, this applies to No Mercy Ch. 1, and Dead Air Ch. 1 from what i remember.)

Light the tank with a molotov, will ruin it as long as you keep distance, but the tank WILL become faster.

Never reload when when clip is empty, reload when convenient or when at low.

Use the M16 in burst shots, don't spray.

Crouch, its your best friend with the Uzi, M16, and Sniper.

Don't be afraid to friendly fire, just be sure to have a good reason.

Kill zombies before trying to crown the witch, will knock the aim off.

If you have to, use your pistol's, they are there for a reason.

Use common sense.

Search through places carefully, most item's will spawn in similar spot's, depends server to server.
The Common Infected do a set amount of damage, depending upon from if they hit you from behind, or in front.
Easy: .5, 1.
Normal:1, 2.
Advanced: 2.5,5.
Expert: 10, 20.


Special Infected Tips.
The Scoring system is set the same for each Chapter, on each Map.
Distance. 1-100%
Survivor Multiplier. 1-4x
Health Bonus. 0-200.
Map Multiplier. 1.0. 1.2x. 1.4x. 1.6x and 2.0x
Health Bonus if affected by how many Med Kits, and Pain pills, and your overall health. Your health bonus will be higher if you DO NOT use your pain pills, or med kits. A team with no med kits, pain pills, and 100 health will get less score then a team with 1 health, pain pills, and health kits.

Attack as a team, don't scream leeroy jenkins unless the survivor is way ahead, behind, or by themselves.

Smoker's should always start an attack off with the smoke
backwards on the last survivor, then the hunter's\boomer go in.
If a Boomer dies last, it will increase the chance of a 3n1. (3 hunters, 1 Smoker. Kill team.)

Hunter's shouldn't always go for high pounces, unless you know you can land it.

Try to avoid high pouncing smoked (Being constricted by a smoker) survivors, as the high pounce will most likely not register.

If there is a Witch, set up on her. (Plan your attack around her.)

Again, if there is a witch, only have 1 infected near her, they will Scratch (Left Trigger) her when survivors are near, which will make her aggressive.

When you are the tank, don't rush in with the first player. (Person who becomes the tank first) You want to Throw Rocks (Left Trigger) from a distance, the second player will use hittable's. (Unless the circumstances call for the first tank to rush in.)

When you hit hittable's as the tank, and you "Pass control" (Another player becomes the tank), They will shortly vanish for the second player.

Don't be afraid to run away, if your team attacks and your late, and they all die, run towards the beginning safe room for a "De-spawn" (Too far from survivors, Press X to respawn will appear.)

Left Trigger with Special Infected is helpful, the Hunter does 6 damage, the Smoker does 4, and the Boomer does 4 as well.


No Mercy High Pounces I like using. The reticule is where the spot\area.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This pounce goes over the building and lands you infront of the saferoom door. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Invisible wall you jump\land on. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Pounce down the manhole for 25 damage + fall damage, usually incapacitates people. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
There is an invisible wall you vertical pounce up and pounce off of, does 25 damage and if done correctly will knock them down the hole, doing more fall damage.

adding spots to attack on that are "crucial" attacks, or that can work very well.

You can bunny hop on consoles? I could never get it to work.

This topic is pretty good. I know most of this but it should come in handy at one point.
