    Mine has to be the four dungeons and dragon nerds in the south plaza. As soon as I saw the big guy in the anime sailors outfit I knew I got to save these guys. Worst has to be either the lady in underwear or that girl that's has you run all the way to atlantica to find her mother. So many loading screens, are you serious lady?

    They should have cameoed Zoey, Francis, Bill, and Louis in DR2 as survivors. The guys at Valve like DR2, I'm sure they could have loaned out the rights for a cameo appearance. Have Chuck find all 4 together and equipped with firearms.

    Chad is pretty awesome. Just shows up with a shotgun, and then his wife just shooting zombies. The woman in the underwear is annoying but managable. The fat shit who wont come with you unless you give him food is a dick. PEOPLE ARE DYING, YOU FAT FUCK.

    The three rockers from Silver strip I really liked. With the leadership magazine and them all equipped with mercenary machine guns we absolutely dominated ;P. Plus they're so stereotypically cockney that every ad lib they have is hilarious. 
     
    There wasn't necessarily any survivors I really hated, since the AI is improved so well and the leadership book makes them all (minus the Mermaid chick) at least able to run on their own, including Dean with the broken legs. 
     
    Maybe Bibi...

    Really love Chad and Snowflake (she counts, right?). Tammy was also an...interesting case.  Also love Linette, for opening the shortcut. 
     
    Didn't like Stuart (I never really like survivors you have to hit, especially when they try to mutiny later). I don't like Kristin for the sole reason that she seems to be some sort of poker wizard.

    I don't know if I have a favorite, but my most hated is definitely Dean. He walks sooooooooo fucking slowly.

    Try to find the Leadership magazine, located in the bingo hall where that paramedic survivor's found. It increases all survivors speed, and ones who are crippled or old will least go into a modest jog.

    Yeah, Dean. The leadership magazine will give him the ability to run.... Maybe the leadership magazine is secretly the bible =O

    @Raymayne:  Have to agree with Angel Lust, the lyrics are hilarious. Also the Tape It or Die crew are great, especially if you followed their blog pre-release.
     
    Most annoying has to go to the 3 poker players in Atlantica Casino, I actually had to learn the basics of poker just to beat the smug git with the shades.

    Remembering now, there is one that's always a bleedin' nuisance: Andy. He's the guy for the ''dead or alive'' side mission. He just goes oooon and ooooon about all his mopey depressive shit. I remember carrying the Mermaid lass before hand, and had to dump her in a shop somewhere where I had to simultaneously shoot the zombies going near her while putting up with Andy and the never ending text duologue between Chuck and Andy.

    Yeah, I watched my friend deal with him after having no problems. He was in the midst of talking him down, and then he went to make sure the mermaid was okay, and Andy offed himself. Had no idea that would happen, made me laugh. I hear if you have another survivor that Andy can see, the conversation goes faster? Haven't been able to confirm, though.  
     
    Also, for everybody complaining about Dean, just get him a wheelchair. There's usually one right next to the shop he's holed up in. That's what I do, anyway, and I never have any trouble with him.
