    Advanced headshot training

    I am thinking of a challenge

    ... its to encourage headshots

    single pistol only

    second pistol = not allowed (don't even pick it up)
    tier 2 weapons = not allowed (don't even pick it up)
    ammo resupply points = allowed (but useless as single pistol has infinite ammo)
    molitov = allowed
    pipe bomb = not allowed (don't even pick it up)
    health pack in safe room = allowed
    health pack found during level = not allowed (don't even pick it up)
    pills found during level = allowed
    respawn during level = allowed
    difficulty level = advanced
    flashlight = allowed
    music = not allowed (that is turned off in options, makes the tank more of a surprise etc)

    I am looking at tweeking these rules in the next week and then next weekend (31st Jan & 1st Feb) during all 4 campaigns in euro hrs

    who is interested ?
    what rule tweeks ?

    the game is who gets the most headshots at end of campaign

    PS
    by the way are the TG coop servers down ? I cant see them in the steam group or on game-monitor or connect though IP

    Fantastic idea!! I'm definitely interested, though I can't guarantee availability.

    Indeed they are - we're doing a massive server restructuring (to address some lag issues we've been seeing and better leverage our massive steamgroup) The servers and a new server-guide should be up later today!

    NTY.

    Edit: And by no thank you I mean that will result in horrific death for the survivors if an even semi-competent infected gets the tank.

    I'd love to do it - I still don't have a pistols only achievement!

    Cool Re: Advanced headshot training

    Nice idea.

    I have had music off on my end since I loaded the game. I wanted to get a better grip on hordes and such...it's paid off.

    Avs told me he did the same so he could listen to his Miley Cyrus Itunes -

    This is true. She is related to my cousin, so not only do I support her in this fashion, I am also a big fan! Plus this gives me something to start a conversation with my nieces.

    This event will be on the new Steam group coop server, where we can control who joins, ie steam group people

    Might want to consider this:


    Headshot only mode (enforces headshots to kill zombies)

    I'd love to do this. It'd be fun. Plus it would be fun to see how hard it would be to do it haha. Always up for a challenge.
