Some tips/tricks for playing in versus mode!
On the second part of the campaign No Mercy, you begin by jumping down. Do not hesitate with jumping down. Most likely a hunter will pounce you if you sit alone up there. And if you’re caught up there, it’s hard for the others to save you. The kind person writing this has killed about 10 people on that spot, and if you want to play the map, it is not recommended.
If you find a molotov, save it. It is useful when you meet a tank, as the fire is damaging the tank every second. And if you meet a tank, stay away from tree logs lying around, cars, trucks, and other things the tank can punch at you. It’s instant incapacitation and a lot of points to the lucky tank
Another thing that could work very well vs a tank is everyone standing together in a small space. The tank can only damage one person at a time, and when he’s started hitting Francis, it will continue hitting Francis until Francis is dead. So if everyone shoot the tank, it’ll die pretty quickly. But watch out for rocks. I believe rocks knock down more than one player at a time.
Speaking of rocks, rocks can be shot in the air, before they hit someone. It’s not easy, but it can be done. Best weapon vs the rocks is of course running/hiding behind something. But you could always try
On level 4, No Mercy, after the elevator. If you meet the tank there, you can do as in this video:
A good rule for yourself and your team to follow is this: never walk alone. Never camp on your own when you wait for ie. the elevator. You’ll most likely die a horrible death, screaming for help
