OK guys, I'd like to start off by saying a few things

1) I know there have probably been similar posts like this. There is even one that is stickied. But there is a lot of stuff about zombies That people don't know of, or smart stuff that they don't do. It's kind of aggravating and I'd just like to aware people of how to be smart when playing zombies.

2) Don't post comments flaming on how this is stupid. If you don't like it, don't continue reading. And most importantly, don't waste your time by commenting.

3) This is a work in progress. I have trouble doing one thing for too long. More than likely i will post this and make a few updates. I will probably make it more organized if needed to. I'm sorry if it gets annoying but I know at least 1 person will find it useful and I will feel better knowing I have informed the public about a few zombies tips and strategies.

4) Yes I know I don't have many posts and comments. Who cares. Knowledge is good no matter who it comes from. That saying, I know this might be a little sloppy or confusing but this is kind of a practice post to get practice making useful posts.

5) If you have any useful tips comment and i will post it giving you credit for thinking of it. Like I said, the more info you can get, the better.

Now lets get on with the tips (or whatever you would prefer to classify it as)



The most important thing to know about zombies is how to get around. I'm pretty sure most people know this but it just aggravates me when people ignore some smart steps.

1. For one you can jump over crawlers when running. If you feel trapped, jump. There is at least an 80% chance of making out alive (if you have jugger-nog) by just jumping over some low zombies.

2. Another thing is that you can run past zombies. If you feel the need to reload, just click "x" or square and walk right past them. And jump if they still run in front of you. Like i said, you have a better chance of making it out alive.

3. Know where your going! Back-pedal if needed, I do it all the time, but know what's behind you so you don't get cornered in. And also plan ahead to make sure you don't get overrun while moving. Planning ahead is the key to success.


Another really important aspect of zombies is what guns you have. I'm not here to dictate how you play. Just pick guns that will suit your style of play.

If you a runner, have a gun with good firepower and clip size and another gun with high mobility. That way you can run and gun but when your ahead your able to pull a 180 and mow down a horde of infected.

Or if you are a stand and shred kind of player, pick a gun with high clip size (typically an LMG) and either a gun off the wall nearby, or the special gun (ThunderGun, WunderWaffle, Winter's Howl) That way you have the ammo to kill and they can't overrun you.

Another great tip is to Pack-A-Punch a gun off the wall to use no matter what. That way if your out of ammo for both guns, you don't have to get rid of a really good gun to grab a new one from the box, you can just buy ammo off the wall. And yes I know its kind of expensive, so pick a gun you can rack up a lot of money with. I usually use AK74u, M16, or MP40.



The last tip for this installment is know why you play on live (or PSN). You need/want company. That said, listen to what they have to say, and don't go around like a one man army. That means, don't steal barriers, don't steal 1 on 1 kills. And the most recent thing I noticed that really ticks me off is when I risk my life to re-link teleporters in the middle of the round on Kino, and my "friendlies" use the teleporter before I even have time to return. That's just messed up if I do say so myself. Anyways, whether you want to admit it or not, you need them as much as they need you. Otherwise, you would be playing solo, right?



Well, that's about it for now. Just remember, zombies is suppose to be fun so keep it that way. Don't get too competitive like one of my friends does. It's just no fun. Good thing for me he sold the game lol.
