Have we talked about Left 4 Dead yet?
Nodaisho:
So is it unchangeable? I heard that it was a lot, and then heard that you could turn it off on a gamespot feature of it, and I think I have seen people get shot without the warning going off, and I didn't hear any voice clips going off. Could have been a scant miss, though, as they just looked like the shotgun blast should have hit them.
Spluff:
I'm pretty sure friendly fire stays on permanently. It's not that bad though, I haven't been shot on purpose yet and it hasn't been that common - and unless you're in the middle of a swarm, one death or knockdown doesn't really affect anything. You're going to die a decent amount anyway.
dennis:
Line of fire is a major issue in 4 person co-op.
Also, people who don't go through a door so much as stop in it and end up having to face down a horde by themselves and getting some blue-on-blue from the back.
I did notice that the level designers put in a lot of objects you can jump on so you can have tiers of fire. Two people on the ground and two people on a dumpster firing over their heads is pretty effective at solving a lot of LOF problems.
Nodaisho:
If one person crouches and another fires, that works too. Just have to co-ordinate it, and make sure the front man doesn't get up until he backs behind the person behind him, if necessary. Does anyone have one person watching the back regularly? We got a good 20-person swarm coming from the top floor in the apartments, I had thought I heard something coming, though, so I managed to shotgun most of it down in the hallway and bash the rest of them back until my allies noticed. Then I got pounced on by a hunter. Agile little bastards.
Spluff:
Line of fire is fine, just have the person at the front crouch. And even then it's only really an issue on the subway, which a) you don't need more than one person to hold off a horde on anyway, and b) you can choose not to go on the subway if you want.
Usually there is only somebody watching the back when I play if a horde is coming. Just have somebody turn around when you get the audio cue.
