L4D Tank Parking

[kluna]

I know a Bullet tooth tony on steam...I wonder if its the same one.....

[starwarsfan4ever33]

DONT MESS WITH THE TANK WHEN HES TAKIN A SHIT XD

[GioSkullbrains]

WTF is up with the Hunter beating the crap of the Boomer? What a bitch -.-

[Flamewave357]

@GioSkullbrains Haha. They were in the saferoom so we started goofing off. :P

[XatechChaos]

Wait... how was this fixed?

[Flamewave357]

@XatechChaos It was patched so that the tank would go to an active AI instead of passive. So instead of sitting there it'll actively seek out the survivors.

[Xmickens11]

Let the ragequit begiin lol i did that but they locked th tank in the safehouse and shot through the door lol fail

[blackdragon1458]

Tank: I''M TRYING TO TAKE A SHIT IN HERE!

[chadmcbride1]

lol nice saferoom attack

[Kruku88]

He he Zoey was probably something like "Let's check the other room.. what the fuck!"

[FickJaIchLiebeKiffen]

I miss doing this.

[MrNotsoTasty]

lol wow, looks like the ragequitters were butthurt xD

[9Mexico9]

lollololololololololololololol­ol

[ats515]

i would play with you and get over the cheating its very funny but i don't have the game ._.

[ShadeGrey]

Dude... really cheat... but ungodly funny.

[Shintalka]

HAHAHAHA. I would love to see there faces lol. OH SHIT A TANK.

[NaNoSoLdieR21]

really nice lol

[manacim]

LMAO they were so surprised!!

[goodboyOMG321]

Yo if this is PC then my steam name is snaplance

[walkoprops]

Own3d

[deathtax10]

oooooh i get it now. the player who is the tank goes to a spot that is obviously a killzone for the humans, and requires them to expose themselves, and sits there inactive long enough for another player to take over, then he does the same, so the AI takes over and owns the shit out of everyone when the humans come. HA! (yeah i dont play l4d lol :)

[ulvemann43]

its patched now though

[NinjaKow0]

That is one diabolical tank park!

[samsta10000]

how exactly do u tank park?

[jamescobler]

You can't anymore what you'd do though in the past was you would go to the area you want to leave the tank than you would wait there until rage bar ran out, another person gets tank then he waits as well.

Now though as soon as two people fail in filling the rage bar constantly the AI takes over and runs right into the other team.

[justinsanchez2010]

epic XD

[gosteelers826]

that was hilarious, i wish i saw the look on their faces

[LordFrostDeath]

We did this in Vs. on NM3: parked the Tank inside the safe room. 3 of the 4 survivors made a mad dash for it, leaving Louis to get strangled by a Smoker. Soon as they closed the door: BAM! Tank wtfpwns all 3 of them. XD

Our infected side has never laughed so hard. The survivors even had a molotov, so all they had to do was toss it, run out, and close the door behind them.

Guess seeing a Tank in the safe room would make anyone piss their pants. :D

360 btw; we've yet to receive the fix.

[Flamewave357]

PC users just got it recently so it's probably a few weeks away for you.

Abuse it while you still can! :D

[jness456]

what fix? i have the 360 can u not park the tank annmore?

[LadyNinjaKagero]

I hate it when you are whooping someones ass in a game and they up and leave, if I'm getting my ass beat I just stay there and play cause its fun, I had people leave repeatedly cause I was raping their team with the Tank every time I got him on each level.

[lejink]

good call, cuz thats how u get better.. ur forced to learn new ways of fighting or u lose. u also get to see exactly how they are kicking for ass, n use it next time yourself.

[Dragonfablepwns1]

how do you park tank????

[Flamewave357]

Short answer?

You can't anymore.

[re4addict16]

wait what? so what happens when you lose control of the tank,it just keels over and dies a spontaneous tank heart attack?

[Flamewave357]

Before, it would go to passive AI control, like in campaign, where you can here it grunting and snorting and it'll attack when it sees the survivors.

After the patch, it now goes directly to active AI control where it immediately seeks out the survivors instead of just sitting around.

[Flamewave357]

Argh, typos! I meant "hear" and not "here."

[re4addict16]

no problem with the typos, your punctuation makes up for it.

darn game developers,taking the fun out of everything.what,did they catch on to the parking in the safe rooms and all?

[Flamewave357]

It was a hot issue on the Valve forums for certain. Truthfully, it really did need to be fixed, and if there's any way to adjust the mechanic, the solution they used was the best of the alternatives.

I'll miss the lulz, though. Certainly will.

[ZekeDOTHaCk]

When they patched the 'parking', does that mean if you stand still, an AI will take over?

[Flamewave357]

Yes, and the AI will actively seek out the survivors.

[threesixtydegree]

someone else in your team will become the tank

[Flamewave357]

Technically. If the first person loses control it goes to a second person. If the second person loses control it goes to AI.

[Brady7007]

oh ya me and my freinds did that but we had 2 hunters a A I boomer and a smoker and of course the tank

[1337Yondaime]

Lol too bad you can't park anymore now D: my valet tank parking is out of business lol.

[Garrett00009]

There is a down fall to parking the tank in the saferoom. Even if the tank is sucessful on incapping one to 3 survivors and he dies, they are still counted for making it to the saferoom since they were incapped inside. Wish they would do that in game finales, sitting in the chopper ready to go when a tank incaps you. The chopper flys away with you in it but are not counted as one of the surivovrs who made it.

[Flamewave357]

If we wanted to win we'd have parked it just outside. We did it just to be funny.

Which is why it's hilarious that they got so angry at us.

[killatoy]

Just so everyone knows, putting a tank in the safe room isnt a good strat to use. All you have to do is activate the AI tank and close the safe room door and the tank will die on its own. Lawl.

[adrian1996emo]

zombies need a place to pee c: xD

[iMassacreXx]

Lol zombehs were blocking the door so there's NO ESCAPE! lulz :P

[iddo12233]

i dont understand why did ur team attacked u?

[Flamewave357]

We all know eachother and it's funny.

[AdtamTV]

What the hell is wrong with that?

[xesonik12]

they still got the points?

[Ibravas]

camper:P

[Flamewave357]

And proud of it. o7

[kraljevo8]

you never ever ever ever park in the safe room if you know the team's total IQ is above 100. just throw in a molly and shut the door. tank dies cuz tanks cant break the last door.

[Flamewave357]

That's what I thought, but the other team decided to get angry at me instead!

It's not like they're bad players, either. It's hilarious.

[kraljevo8]

lol well played anyways. coulda got some hunters pounced in under the doors if you needed back up too lol

[jness456]

u would think that if they heard the tank music and they didnt see the tank yet when they get to the safe room its obviously in there.

[Charconian]

how do you tank park?

[theroyalpain]

When you play as the tank, let the rage meter drop to zero, in a INCONVENIENT location, such as the safe house, the top of a ladder, or in a air vent!

[Valcron]

I must try this. That was epic.

[fatmanrunnin]

HAHAHAHA! nice one flame, that was epic

-LC

[gameboyredpee]

LOL tank is ninja.
