Your Left 4 Dead 2 Loadout

[ShankHA32]

I search barred this, and I saw nothing. However if I happened to miss something, please just post the link on the thread and be done with it.

Now for the thread. In Left 4 Dead 2, there are several different weapons unlike the fairly simplistic Left 4 Dead.
The question is simple. What equipment do you usually go for, and what do you feel is the ideal loadout if you want to complete the game on any difficulty setting.

Personally, I always go for a melee weapon, my preferance being the axe, katana, or machete. I use molotovs rather than other weapons and because I am usually out front i bring a medkit and adrenaline. For my primary, I use the Fully Loaded Assault Rifle, which resembles most closely a SCAR. (then again i am terribly ignorant of weapons, so please correct me if I am wrong) Its 3 shot burst fire is most useful for crowd clearing, and killing smokers before they can fully pull you in. Now i must ask. What is your preferance?

I apologize. I somehow triple posted this thread, but i reported the other two threads. Again, sorry.

Combat shotgun. I don't care about the secondary weapon.
Also, you double posted this thread.

I don't have the game yet

 

[walls of cetepedes]

Ninja Sword and that 3-shot burst assault rifle.

But I almost exclusively use the sword, as I hate using ammo.

Actually i triple posted it . My most humble apologies.

DE, PSG, Medkit, Pills, Molotov.

I don't egen use the PSG as a sniper rifle, aside from the fact it is zeroed wrong there isn't many places where a sniper is useful in this game and leaving a sniper for cover usual leaves them dead by a special. The through and through damage it is capable of with major accuracy and lots of damage means each bullet can be utilised to it's fullest.

Still would rather a lot more guns in that game.

Shotgun: Spas 12
It's great for killing Witches because of it's fire rate. And it's great for crowd control, I think it's way better than the standard auto-shotgun because the auto shotgun feels a little sticky, like it doesn't fire as fast.

Assault Rifle: AK-47
I prefer to pop heads from long range, it's also great for spray and pray hordes that are coming from one direction.

Secondary Weapon: Regular Pistols or Machete/Katana
I prefer the regular pistols for picking off your average enemies. If I find a Machete or Katana, I will definitely go for it, even if I do have dual pistols. Slashing zombies is a lot of fun...

Grenade: Boomer Bile or Molotov
I prefer Molotovs, because when I have a Pipe Bomb or Boomer Bile I am reluctant to use it...so I save it pretty much the whole round and never use it. With a molotov, I toss them often, and I don't feel like I'm wasting them.

Fourth Slot: Adrenaline
I also tend to horde these and never use them unless the "perfect" situation arrives. But I make sure to ALWAYS have an adrenaline during the finales, because it helps when you have to run to a Boat/Air Plane/Helicopter.

And I've invented my own playstyle, I'm probably not the first to do this, though. I use nothing but my secondary weapon, so I have infinite ammo, and I only use my main weapon for hordes/Special infected.

For main weapons, I will go for the burst fire weapon, I like it for it's accuracy, and I find it clears out crowds pretty easily.

For secondary I will go for dual pistols or melee, my favorite melee weapon has always been the cricket bat. I think it may be my English roots that do that.

I always go for the bile just because it won't do damage to me if I'm surrounded. For health it's always the med kit and pills. Unless I'm at one of the rush points.

 

[WrongSprite]

Sniper rifle is amusing. Sword/machete is what I kill things with.

 

[The DSM]

Combat Shotgun, Molotov, Katana and First-aid kit.

 

[AkJay]

The weapons I use most are as follows:
Pipe Bomb
Machete
M-16 (I'm old-school, I guess?)
Medkit
Pills

 

[TerranReaper]

Scar (Desert Rifle) or M4 (Assault Rifle), Dual pistols, molotov, first aid, pills.

 

[Oxymoronic]

I normally use a combination of these:

Primary: Spas-12 or the three burst assault rifle
Secondary: Fire Axe/Machete/Katana, otherwise pistols
Throwable: Pipe Bomb, Molotov if I'm playing with useless people for the tanks
Fourth Slot: Good ol' pain pills.

 

[dark_taint92]

my primary is normally the tactical shotgun. i love the spread it gives.
my secondary is katana, axe or crow bar (like looking like gordon freeman)
i carry a medkit or frag rounds
adrenaline due to me being at the front with a melee weapon and when i need to run i can get there that little bit quicker
and i normaly have the boomer bile due it being awesome.

 

[Hotshots]

AK-47/Spaz-12
Crowbar/Axe/machete
Heroin...i mean adrenaline
Med-kit.

Or the gnome...

 

[NotAPie]

For me it's an Ak47, usually when I know I'll end up getting lazer sights.
As for the secondary, the Magnum has saved my life so many times.
