  • It's L4D2?

  • hunters on fire really does more damage than normal hunters

  • 4:20 stupid noob

  • For me i can't pause the video.

  • fire hunter it doesnt do anymore damage than regular hunter bottem screen 50 common infected finished him off

  • wait i tought the witch is the most powerful???

  • i like criken's tips and tricks video better

  • @shellyswaqq09 Lol actually I'm from the UK. There's a difference between British English and American English. That's how it's spelt over here in verb form ;)

  • You know theres an easier way to wall hump

  • @WiSHP3R in soviet russia, the wall humps you!

  • cant spell practice he spelled it practise

  • so pretty much is jump on a wall do a 280 turn and jump i still cant do it its really hard for xbox

  • stealing is only ok when you can save the smokers life!

    if the other survivours are right around the cornor, "steal" the survivour and let the smoker run, you will by doing this: deal more damage to the the survivour, open for a good(or not) smoker pull later on.

  • The easiest way to wall-jump is to use the 180 button, lol :D

  • Good video, but if you learn wall jumping and kai jumping, you can almost always do a max pounce if you set up right.

  • OR HERES AN EASIER WAY TO GET UP THE ELEVATOR SHAFT............. USE THE CLAW LADDER!!!!!!!!!

  • a quicker way to get up the elevator shaft in no mercy is to vertical pounce

    (yes it is possible)

  • @pivotsreborn No, its not possible ^^

  • @Crebralassassin are you sure? cuz i did it 4 the 360 and PC

    you can do all tricks you can do on the pc and the 360

    (wall-jumping, vert. wall jumping, kai jumping, bunny hoping, jump starting etc.)

    i have tried out all the tricks for the 360 and nailed every one :3

  • @pivotsreborn No Im not sure, I get what your saying now, I thought you were joking and meant in 1 pounce, I didnt no you could repeatedly pounce up vertical surfaces.

  • @Crebralassassin oh okay but you can do all hunter tricks on PC and 360

  • hey dude im always doing 89 degree pounces i wonder how much dmg that causes ?

  • how do you get that yellow line to appear the one with the claws near it?

    i play alone in single player and that thing doesn't pop out EVER

  • u need to been in multi-player and infected to see in they are infected ladders that only infected can climb and see

  • Hunter is probobly the most versatile class in L4D and even L4D2. They can walljump, curve, and ultimately take down a quarter of your health in one pounce.

  • @Left4DeadStudio dude how the hell do u curve ?

  • @Left4DeadStudio when a smoker is used correctly they can incapp a survivor faster then a hunter(if its fall damage of cource)in l4d2 in dark carnival the barns, try pulling a survivor off of the building over the black truck after the narrow pass,when done right the fall damage=instant incapp the timing is hard try 2 snag them when they just get off the stairs.

  • Sometimes as smoker i want a hunter to take one of my smokes because the smoker does such slow damage and if they are all runing back then the hunter raking one of them coming to help is gona buy what? 2 seconds before the other two kill him. Sometimes a hunter can take over a smoked surv just due to the fact the hunter can seriously incap or kill him much much quicker damage wise. yes tho it is annoying when they simply steal a kill for no real reason other than points.

  • @CarpMagic95 sometimes as a smoker they take my kill so i can escape,i play a great smoker and knowing when and where 2 snag is very important when play as the smoker,pulling survivors near witches,car alarms,off buildings,in fire,by a boomer, and into spitter goo is great overall, even though some player do see this.

  • is never axeptable to take a smokers kill...ever!!!!!!the idea would be to set an ambush around that captured survivore

  • Actualt, in some cases if the smoker is done pulling the survivor were he wants(if the smoker is simply pulling the survivor for fall amage or to make them backtrack) a hunter can punce on the survivor because it will do more damage and the smoker can recharge and repeat the process.(just make sure the smoker is okay with you doing this)

  • yeah the infernal or however you spell that (sorry not the best speller ) doesnt work because a patch made it so the survior has to set you on fire ie. gas tank molotov ect. T

  • Er, bonch, in the Xbox 360 version you can turn around without the joysticks, just click the right shoulder trigger for a quick 180. Easy, intuitive, effective. Computers are clunky with that sort of thing :)

    Unless you are playing real time strategy (Age of [insert game here], or a game with 7+ weapons (tomb raider, Doom) stick with the Xbox.

  • Haha, this vid was posted by a console kiddie having to turn around with his little joysticks. Get a PC and play the real version of Left 4 Dead.

  • Another trick, which is really strong.

    As a hunter, crouch in front of a witch. When a survivor sees you, he shoots you AND the witch, making her startled. You die, but the survivor has the witch on his back!

  • That works better with a smoker, the smoker snares a survivor, the witch gets pissed and goes after them...

  • Yeah! Sadly, survivors aren't that stupid, though :P

  • ALL survivors I met, shoot me instantly when they see me, before noticing theres a witch behind me. xD

  • @simoniem dont forget this is really effective with the smoker since it forces the survivors 2 deal with the witch and since in l4d1 the smoker had low damage power,in l4d2 the snag does 5 damage,and claw does 4.

  • kill stealer..

  • how to be a zombie in l4d plzz teach me

  • Is the song from Kill Bill?

  • Comment removed

  • :( thats pretty gross there. more so because its rotting flesh

  • your sick lol

  • thanks man your video was great and very helpful thanks again

  • nice i didnt knew that hunter make much dmg with normal pouncing thx 5/5

  • Hunters pwon

  • how much damage can hunter do with his secondary attack?

  • claws? 10 per slash

  • you can only do it online

  • ocean 13 xDDD nice sound!!

  • Thanks for the vid, reminded me of how useful the claws really are!

    Our little group took to calling the last trick the "Flaming Hunter Surprise" when we first discovered it. The damage seems to catch most people by surprise, though I doubt that's what it was named for.

  • though the elevator shaft when ur truing to get to the top is very easy to fail and fall to the bottom again

  • Fire hunter still works

  • i do not understand

  • that fire hunter dont work any more

  • Yes it does. At least on PC I know it does.

  • Yah it does... 360 and PC. You might not know how to use it correctly.

  • tnx for the tips!! ;-)

  • WMG why dont you take the copyright and shove it up your ass u mother fucking hoe bags!!

  • Great vid, thanks! Only thing I think could be added is that the hunter is great for attacking a survivor who comes to the aid of someone else who is pounced/tongued, it's a great one-two punch, essential hunter strategy! But you knew that.

  • come on why does wmg do this?

  • because they got pissed off when they and youtube couldnt come to an agreement so they had a hissy fit and muted videos that contained songs that they didnt authorize.

  • fuck wmg!

  • just one thing, the smoker would have propably got the guy above the hole. it really pisses people off when you steal their kill with a hunter. other than that good vid

  • DAMN YOU WMG!!!

  • who is wmg?

  • dont take the smokers kill, douche. lol

  • Very good video. I particularly found the wall jumping in elevator shaft example extraordinary. Thanks. At 2:00 you say a hunter should never steal a smoker's kill. New players often feel like this because it is "bad form" but actually, the more experienced you get the more you realise it is exactly what you should be doing. It frees the smoker to recharge quicker and get back to doing his main job, splitting and delaying the survivors. So it's not stealing, it is perfect teamwork.

  • Actually , regardless of whether it is stealing or not , the hunter should always pounce another survivor . If the smoker has just dragged a survivor away from the rest , they're likely to come save the guy . If the hunter pounces the one coming back instead of stealing , there will be 2 helpless survivors instead of one . If the hunter steals however , then the smoker won't be able to run off in time and most likely get killed , as well as the hunter being meleed off .

  • I agree for the most part. In most situations the hunters should work with the smoker and hit any survivors coming to save the one that's grappled by the smoker. But in the situation where the survivor is beyond saving it is better to free up the smoker since he does damage much slower.

  • @VmuteV nicely sed

  • Awesome video, thanks for posting these tips!

  • not much you can do witha hunter when survivors are grouped together in this case it best to wait for boomers assist or a tank. one time i was spawning behind and some idiot said i was useless and suggested i try to do damage to them while they were grouped and the result in that i was killed quick and gained 2 points wake up idiots its not fucking worth it.

  • watched this while playing 'come sail away' pretty funny

  • YT fails.

  • HUNTER + FIRE = 3 TIMES DAMAGE

  • hunter melee does 10 damage each hit

  • 6 damage now.

  • on 360 it is still 10 i play it every night with friends and we do the "Hit and Run" tactic we all jumped around a player clawing at him and he went down fast 10 damage

  • It is 6 in the new patch, your 360 may still need to update.

  • Its just a PC Patch, Valve dont really care about updating games on 360, just there normal PC way.

  • The 360 just got the patch.

  • what patch?

  • Great video and some good tips there mate, I just saw the kamikaze run being done by some guy online yesterday and thought it was crap, but it actually seems a pretty good way to use the hunter the way you presented it.

    5* from me =]

  • I got something to say, not to offend but you kinda made a mistake, on the second thing it should be "Banzai Run", because Kamikaze is a type of ship/ship maouver. I might be wrong but someone could correct me.

  • nothing new D:

  • You're a cunt, they obviously werent able to reach the teammate from where they were yet you stole the smokers incap.

  • They can still shoot through the floor in that location, the longer we took to kill him, the more chance they would have to free the survivor and we would lose an easy kill.

  • melee'ing has been nerfed and pouncing been buffed, its kinda useless now.

  • not on the 360 version so far...

  • at 2.13 it is possible to save him from the first floor by shooting through with an m16 or better.

  • Well yeah, mostly the best left 4 Dead players in the world are on the PC and on the XBox360 most people are just rushing Boomers in the wide open or people who cant think (No offense to people playing 360 but I said "most" people on 360).

  • So your saying you played with almost everybody on xbox360? And i bet its so easy to play l4d of pc cause the mouse is easy to use everybody knows that.

  • I wish i could be on PC but mine sucks free DLC for you guys and the people i verse are waaay too easy.

  • I own both versions. And I saw way more rushtards on PC version, though I played less!

    No offense :)

  • heres a tip and trick DONT PLAY IT ON XBOX!!!

  • why not?

  • this is a nice guide but they nerfed the smoker steal and the hunter melee on the pc version and the 360 is getting this update in a few weeks...

  • jump melee works better

  • About stealing the smokers kill: Dont do it, just scratch the survivor at the same time as he's being smoked, this will take him down quickly.

  • gotta rmb that a hunter on fire is a noisy hunter

  • I would like to add that Dread Armadillo is very much a whiny noob. If survivor melee seems overpowered then you simply aren't very good at infected who probably just solo kamikazes every life. Also taking that smoker's kill was purely selfish, it served no purpose at all and in fact endangered the team's success since the smoker would have had the survivor pulled farther out of the way. Trying to justify it in a tutorial video is extremely misleading.

  • 1. The Survivor Melee often kills in 6 hits. That's less than it takes to kill with bullets (most of the time.)

    Then again, I'd rather it be overpowered than underpowered.

    2. He had to steal the Smokers kill. The Survivors CAN shoot through the floor in the Apartments. If he didn't, the Survivors would've caught their mistake, killed the Smoker and the Survivor would've lived.

    And the Smoker was right in front of him, how would that have been farther?

  • 1. 6 hits takes forever compared to shooting. That comment about the bullets is ridiculous. One shotgun shell or hunting rifle bullet kills any special infected when placed well, and just 3 or 4 automatic bullets.

    2. No he didn't. He could help the smoker by meleeing the victim while they're constricted. Pouncing resulted in a greater danger of being shot through the floor, it's easier to hit a hunter on someone through the ceiling there (not to mention friendly fire is off while pounced).

  • If a hunter swipes at a constricted human, the human is released and the smoker can't use the tongue again for a while, if i recall correctly.

    A hunter did that to me the other day and ended up saving a survivor that couldn't be helped by the others.

  • That's not possible as far as I know, something else must have happened.

    If he pounces on someone near someone constricted then the knockback sets them free I believe.

  • I could be mistaken since the scenario doesn't occur often. It seemed to coincide with the hunter swiping, but even though the survivors were somewhat far away, they could have shot through the floor (No Mercy 2, beginning by saferoom).

  • believe me its possible i get my kills stolen as smoker all the time on 360

  • You are fucking lucky valve even made left 4 dead for xbox, they have been strictly PC only till lately, because people are pirating the fuck out of pc games and they are losing money, so why don't you go qq about something else and be grateful you can actually play it on your shitty xbox

  • If you think that consoles are for casual gamers, you have to be freaking retarded.

  • its obviously more casual than PC dumbarse

  • I lol'd.

  • Well, it was made for xbox...works great on both systems.

  • it wasn't made for xbox...It was made for PC just like every other valve/ source engine game :-P

  • this honestly is made for pc not xbox

  • l4d on x-box. could have been cool. slashes no longer do 10 damage on PC. they do 6. also minimum pounce damage is increased so it makes more sense to pounce again then slash. you should 0 25 damage pounces and most of your tactics would fail agaisnt any team with a brain. o wait xbox. nvm~ lol

  • nice vid. My suggestion, and you kinda mentioned this already, is use the horde as a distraction and hit a survivor while they are in a corner... Or sometimes you can actually get behind OR on top of a stack of surviovor and claw them from above while you stand on top.

    Another good strategy is what i call Tree Hugger. On forest levels when a survivor is fighting near a tree, use to hunter to run out swipe once or twice then retreat back into cover.Often the survivor won't realize you are there.

  • Now, that 30 damage goes down to 18 damage, and it would've been better to pounce to do about 20 damage at that point as well as having that player incapped.

  • And another thing, why did you need to take the smokers kill? Why do you need to do the damage as fast as possible when the kill isn't preventable and the hunter is FAR more useful outside for a potential 25 damage, while still getting the kill.

  • at that range I would have done about 6-9 damage on impact and the damage needed to be done as fast as possible because survivors can still shoot through the floor in that location, he needed to be incapped ASAP to ensure a death

  • hahaha exactly. to ensure death...that's the stupidest thing ive ever heard. the smoker pulls him away. again if those xbox idiots had brains they could have gone in the bathroom and shot you. if the smoker pulled him away it would have been even safer. and stealing from the smoker makes sense in almost every situation. hunter kills them so much faster...let the smoker go for someone else while you kill the person he pulled.

  • Haha you got L4D on the Xbox...

  • Agreed, Xbox version tends to be a little easier due to the community not being as sharp as the PC version. I have both xbox and pc so I can honestly say that as most players would.

  • So many freaking people have the xbox though, like one person at my school has it for pc, and then 30 others have it for xbox.

  • The people who don't have it for PC probably can't run it and if they can and they still have it for Xbox then something is wrong with them...

  • I'm going to most likely get it for the xbox so I can play with those 30 people, lol.

  • yea, you just can't play FPS on consoles, or maybe if "youre a noob"

  • I can play FPS on consoles just fine. There's just some games that are better for Xbox and some for PC. This for example is better for PC while games like Halo are better on Xbox.

  • Hunter scratch dmg is reduced to 6 dmg, per claw hit... Used to be 10 per hit. Sux imo :( better to be on fire and then pounce :D

  • Nice music!

  • Hm... I wouldn't say this video is unique, but it is helpful. It just shows the basic tactics of the hunter.
