Favorite Special Infected from L4D2

[LiNuX]

Quite a few people have Left 4 Dead 2 now and I was wondering what your favorite special infected is. I've kept the three oldies up there just in case you are still fond of them and like using them more than the newer infecteds.

Mine right now is the Charger. If you can get enough practice on it, you can kill all four survivors in one go, especially if they are going up a staircase. I have yet to perfect the charges but hopefully I will soon just like I neared perfection with Hunter Pounces in the Original L4D (I know tons of 25dmg Pounce spots in every campaign).

What's your favorite?

CHARGER FTW!

I just love smashing someone out of no where and just separating him from the group and then they have to run all the way back to get him xD and yes, I got the achievement for him :D

The most annoying while playing as a surviver is def. the jockey. His laugh and the fact that he can steer you around >:( but its awesome to play with him haha

I played the demo of L4D2 and really didn't like it, then got a chance to play it briefly on release. I kind've like the boomers myself. I have to say though, despite there being glimmers of good in the game, it really doesn't rock my world .. it barely trembles it :(

Yeah its not as WOW as everyone made it, maybe that's why it's not that good because people overrated it :/

I like the 3 new infecteds. But I agree they overrated it before it came out - they hyped it up a little too much. They seriously messed up how the Hunter, boomer, and smoker worked from the original. After a bit of practice it was easy to get 25dmg pounces but in l4d2 you have to be exact and aim for the body. It annoys me when I miss a pounce by a millimeter or push them away.

On the other hand, the melee weapons make it worth it. Love that Katana and you can solo a tank with a chainsaw.

I personally like the Jockey, great to split them up. If timed correctly with your teammates it can work perfectly. Even if they are already split 2 n 2, you can separate em. When the person goes down you hop off them which is a plus !

The Spitter!!

My favorite special to play is also the one I hate the most when playing as the survivors. The spitter can be super effective when your team works together.

Love the Spitter. Wish she had more HP though.

Smoker is always an awesome pick.

Charger can be fun and deals hella'damage.

Hunter is nerfed and lame, from L4D.

Hate the Jockey.

I started loving the spitter as well, I can take out entire teams now in Dead Center. played that map enough now to know it pretty well.

I've also been getting used to the hunter pounces. Trying to learn the pounce spots of Dead Center and I know a few ways to get 20+ dmg now.

so i only played the demo lf L4D2 and thought the poll was which one you liked the best, and i hate them all. especially the jockey though, that thing is really annoying and stupid. the demo would have been better with no jockeys.

[HITorMISS]

Jockey! That thing is amazing.

[Kink3bird]

Smoker! I like it because it can do some amazing feats dragging people away and pretty much sniping them with your tongue. That distinct 'cough cough' is also pretty sweet.

I gotta say I'm surprised how many people in this thread are hating on this game. Definitively the #2 zombie game out there after Dead Rising (which has a squeal on the way) but is also one of my top 5 shooters I've ever played.
