Re: Left for Dead

If you surround the Tank, and he goes for one of you, someone brave melee him, then turn and run. Rinse and repeat, keeps him in the middle more....

Re: Left for Dead

To clarify, meleeing the tank makes him target you instead of the person he is attacking. This allows you to revive that person while the other player runs the hell away.

Alternatively, if you already are through most of the level, set him on fire, and then make everybody run back. Eventually, he will die. In any case, Molotov = Tankbuster.

Re: Left for Dead

Something was glitchy last night on Death Toll in the train yard:

The tank came at me and I backpeddled at an angle....he ran at full speed and couldn't catch up to me as I kited him through the yard. My team spanked him but was the weirdest thing that he couldn't catch up.....
