Left4DoD: Favorite Weapon Load out?

Post by Plas » Sun Oct 31, 2010 2:14 am

Whats your favorite anti-zombie load out?

I've been leaning towards Assault with the Axis MP44 swapping out the M1 Thompson. Single shot for medium to long range kills. When needed dropping to prone and switching to semi automatic to provide heavier covering fire. I also find that with the current darkness level it's easier to see a zombie coming when its on fire, :dance: hence plenty of smoke grenade usage.

I'm almost always Assault.
Depending on the map I go between the Garand and the Thompson.
You're totally right about the smokes though. They're also fantastic for closing off a choke point while your group caps.

Well, that's gotta be either:
Support - MP44
or
Rifleman - K98k
or
Assault - MP40

I dunno, it depends on need.
MP44, for nothing less than having a means to suppress hordes but not being weighed down with an MG.
K98k for supporting at good range via the grenade attachment, I use the actual K98k for any range, really. If only if it were more damaging...

So, I guess I really enjoy most the Assault class:
+MP40 is quick to clear off an incoming cluster
+Melee is easy and always available, I love "headfisting" (it's very reliable if you time it right)
+Smoke/molotov grenades light up a group and minimize movement

I usually get the best of both worlds...

I'll go Tommy gun/MP40, then !equip the garand/K98. This way I get the rifle and 1 nade and 1 molly.

If we're bogged down trying to get the last point, I'll go Bar/MP44 to get the max fire power with run n gun and max nades.

Gotta go with the 1903 springfield or K98 sniper.

Assault every time, as the smoke grenades provide an excellent backdrop to shoot hordes down at range.

I swap between the Garand and Thompson, depending upon map.

I'm really starting to get addicted to the mp44 on survival mode. That thing just mows down groups and you you can also one shot most zombies in the head when conserving ammunition. The only draw back is if they get in melee range and you're reloading.

MG42, if I can get a good enough supporting group. If It's time to rock'n roll and assault fast, then I roll Assualt class with the MP44 for high mag cap. I like the BAR, but I'll take ten more rounds in the magizine any damn day of the week.

I use support with the M1 Garand, so Ive got the power and aim of the garand but when I pick up a nade box I can just throw them instead of the delay with loading them onto the rifle

Hmmm, how do you do that? Hand throw them with the Garand, that is? I love to use rifle grenades when I can shoot them way past my own guys, but most of the time, I just want to clear a room in a building, and don't need the extra range.
