Special Infected Tagging

[Aj Fletch 27]

Wouldn't it be cool if as a special infected you could "tag" or highlight the survivor you plan on attacking?

Each SI would get there own color, and it would really help for collaborating an attack, especially if your playing with ransoms. Attacks would be way more efficiently orchestrated!

If every SI has a plan as to who they're going to attack, it's just an additional way for infected to communicate and would definitely make them more powerful.

Perhaps infected could even see a highlight as to where a spitter is going to spit. What do you think!?

I actually see this as a good idea. Survivors have radial menus for communicating quickly if you don't have a mic, infected should have a similar system.

As for the spitter, she spits 99% of the time on incaps and doesn't require a highlight tbh.

Of course it can be used to grief too, but so can everything else in this game. And it can't make up for split second decisions or events, but still would be a useful tool for better coordination.

Or just get a mic

"wow that game is good, i wish it had ak-12 instead of aks-74u though"

"dude, just check out gamename, it has ak-12, so what if it's an absolutely different game"

Sarcasm isn't nessecary em no wonder everyone here only thinks for themselves in this community.

I think Versus is too fast paced to make use of this kind of system.
The ability to chose which survivors you should attack or leave to your teammates comes with experience and practice, and in most cases, voice chat or text chat is enough to setup the base of your attack, like who should go first, where and when.

Thank you! Not a huge fan of that game. But do love the item tagging. I think it would be a great fit in L4D.

Well what exactly turns you away from it? Cause the community isn't as bad as most of the negative reviews make it out to be.

It's just a less good L4D in my opinion. They did an amazing job with melee, but the characters are really dull besides the archer.
