    Silliest exploit I've seen so far: jumping on the minigun on Death Toll launches you way up in the air, and you may or may not be able to get to the other side of the barricade without going splat.

    That is awesome

    Also I love versus, I haven't played it in a while as I got rid of the 360 version and bought the PC version but haven't even played it yet.

    So I played versus at the begining when exploits weren't known it was soooo awesome, a lot more fun then coop...for me anyway

    That reminds me. Remember when there was an exploit that allowed the boomer to suicide and splash the survivors with bile. It's a good thing they nipped that in the bud as fast as they did. Hell someone may have even worked overtime to fix that bug.

    That still looks downright silly compared to everything people are using now. Hell, I'll still contend that it was hardly gamebreaking and had little effect on the game at all, unlike most of the vogue exploits these days.

    Friend, that was my point.

    D'oh.

    Best moment today:

    Mandalore has the idea to hide an AI tank on NM4 near the elevator crescendo. We stick him in the vent above/near the elevator, and we're all dead as the survivors approach.

    I think most of us were spectating Rakuen, and he got near the elevator, hearing the tank noises. I can't imagine what was passing through his mind, but as he got near the vent he looked up and saw ANGRY VENT TANK flying out of the vent, swinging violently.

    Yeah. That worked ALOT better than just charging them at the beginging. Not to mention it was funny as hell to see. You have to melee the vent to make him see them, which works pretty well anyway if you're boomer. Explode on them and a Tank.

    Your girlfriend leaping from the safety of the helicopter on NM5 to beat a Hunter off your arse and single-handedly knocking back the hoard while reviving you and then shouting "Jesus, why am I dating you?" while hustling you to the chopper.

    What's Sarah Polley doing with Michael Clark Duncan? (I know, I know...old joke)

    I myself do not see the hotness in Sarah Polley, but that's just me.

    On the topic of L4D, I'll be firing up the 360 for some zombie genocide soon if anyone's up for it.

    Also, I did a quick search, and there's a script for this now that's easily available. Basically it turns your melee attack into a spiny whirly dervish of death that can break down doors in seconds and melee down pretty much anything in moments.

    Boo.

    That was hilarious, and so much more effective than attacking at the start.

    Boo.

    There are a few versions out there.

    The one I have don't hurt me, I want it to get patched too was made by a personal friend, and is apparently better than a few.

    I know I ran across a few whose script apparently disables their ability to heal other people, or prevents them from reloading while melee'ing.

    Mine fortunately does neither of those things, and it's even speed adjustable for when you have different number of items.

    So I had a pretty awesome round on NM2 last night.

    Right out of the gate, I spawned as Boomer, our Smoker nailed someone in the first area, and I delivered puke for the incredibly speedy kill.

    Later on, we had them in the last area in the subway (survivor closet) and they were patching. Myself and two hunters promptly ran in scratching and clawed away the entire health kit worth.

    Finally, a lovely bit of work by in the parking garage resulted in two survivors being in the red, with one down and being helped up. I waited for them to look away, then promptly spawned as close as possible and legged it over to them.

    *scratch*

    PeregrineFalcon incapacitated Louis

    Win.
