Nerd L4D shit

I'm not a serious guy when it comes to video games. I have a great time playing with you guys and that's really all I care about.

However, I've heard a couple people who don't feel confident at their zombie humping skills complain about being outgunned during games.

I've gathered a couple things that may help:

1) get rid of that shitty cross-hair they gave you and get an accurate one.

in console commands:

cl_crosshair_dynamic (auto adjust) - i use 0 (numeral)
cl_crosshair_thickness (thickness of crosshair lines) - i use 1 or 0
cl_crosshair_alpha (opacity) - i use 255
cl_crosshair_red/blue/green (color) i either use green or red, typed, this goes red 255/blue 0/green 0 or red 0/blue 0/green 255

Those numbers that i gave you, you type in a space after the console command. Trust me when I say that doing so will greatly improve accuracy.

2) L4D guide - click that link and read. I guarantee you learn some stuff you didn't even know about.

3) One of this "visceral" dudes videos - Some of these are unreal. More of an interesting video on utilizing that wall jump as a hunter. The key is, when you hit a wall, you have to be facing at least (i think) about 15 degrees from the angle you met it, and click the pounce again. Increases damage and confuses the hell out of survivors.


Hope some of that helps, there are a ton more things to do in console you can find on forums that will give you an advantage. I personally like playing the game straight up, so I didn't link any of that nonsense. That crosshair is pretty important, though, and debilitating on default. So at the very least, you'd be doing yourself a favor by changing it.

*smooches*

  1. cl_crosshair_dynamic 0 seems to help a bit. Not enough to prevent us from getting our asses handed to us last night, though.
