    A bit too strong?

    I've found on the demo subway level that when playing on expert our team can get through most of it without much trouble but as soon as this guy shows up 80% of the time it's Game Over for our entire team. I know he should be crazy powerful but even when our team tries to circle him or confuse him he's so quick it's almost useless.

    It's probably much different in the full game because there'll be different options of terrain to go on but he's a little too hard in the subway, especaily considering the Witch is a cakewalk and most of the time we'll anger her on purpose just so we can have some fun while she chases us.

    Thoughts..?

    I don't find the Tank to be too strong...it's supposed to be strong and challenging and that's exactly how I felt about him when playing on Expert. Also...Expert is the way this game has to be played. When I jumped to Expert the game went to a whole new level of challenge.

    I agree, I love playing on Expert. If I just want a nice play-through I'll go for advanced, in that none of you will really die but you still feel challenged. I go for Expert now to get the real 'Jesus we just made it' feeling.

    I'm really surprised with how adequate your AI-controlled teammates play...they can hold their own, even on Expert.

    I actualy like to have 1 AI controlled dude on my team sometimes, they don't friendly fire, they kill that smoker quicker then you can say "help" and they won't mind giving you their medipack.
