The Best Left 4 Dead Match By Far and the Amazing A.I.
maxbraff | 5:43 AM on 12.15.2008 9 comments


So I just got done playing a Left 4 Dead match on versus. The map was Blood Harvest and I'll tell you what made it amazing. I was the only one on my team against four people. Now, the first two levels started out with me on a team. However, half way through the second level (when I was survivors) my team quit. Now ordinarily you think I would be f'ed up the a. However, the other team didn't check what was going on and didn't use my shortcomings to their advantage. Where they could of simply defeated my A.I. teammates, they didn't instead, since I then became the automatic leader and my teammates would be to follow me where ever I went. Which actually ended up being the other teams downfall. As I got a 1000 point lead when I made it to the end of the third campaign. When it was my turn, they split up 3 and 1 accidentally and I knocked 3 of them down with my tank. I went after the fourth who was caught in a horde, leaving the other 3 to die. While I'm not going to state why the A.I. helped me so much, I do plan to write a sequel to my TEAMWORK means TEAMWORK posting. With details about Versus mode and how to defeat each type of zombie, whether it is common sense or not.

Ummm, playing as the survivors with no teammates is too easy especially in Blood Harvest. Sorry to burst your bubble but if a Infected boss is hiding in the trees new a computer, they will automatically kill the infected in two shots.

That is why my friends and I NEVER play Versus with the other team having a computer on their team unless we can help it. And when they have a computer, our first task is ALWAYS take out the non-player cause they are the only thing stopping someone from dying.

I need to agree with Blindside, AI players are often better than humans as Survivors. Sounds like you had a good time as the tank, though. 3/4 times I spawn as a tank I can't find the survivors and someone else spawns as it instead...I get so pissed off ha ha.

Left 4 Dead is a wonderful game

Yeah, if you stopped them as the infected and there were one of you and 4 of them, GOOD JOB!

I don't know what games you two are playing, but it's different to me.

I was laying on the floor being anally raped by a hunter in versus, whilst an AI controlled player was standing next to me doing nothing.

They ALWAYS wander off, NEVER use grenades, and on the third(?? The one with the cherry picker-esque lift) level of Blood Harvest they keep falling out the window and back into the car park

I was under the impression that the game ends the match if there aren't at least two people on each team. At least, that's what's happened to me when a few people quit the match.

The CPU players always kill the special infected before I even see them. And they always think they're better than me. Bastards.

the game ends if there isn't atleast one human player on each team. Which happened on the last level when I beat them as survivors (they sent two tanks after me). That entire team quit. So I never got to beat the shit out of them on the last level as infected.
