The Infected and their special abilities.
You can control the infected bosses in Versus mode.
Infected people
These are the things your going to be spending your bullets on. Unlike the other kind of zombie, these guys tend to be fast and are able to climb with no problems
Smoker
Like the name implies, he is covered in smoke, constantly hacking, coughing. You'll know when you'll see it. His ability allows him to rope in the survivors with his incredibly long tongue. Depending where you are, you'll either be dragged off the ledge of a building or cliff, constricted, or he'll drag you all the way towards him and start clawing at you. If your caught by him and fast enough, you can shoot him to free yourself. Otherwise, wait for your teammate to free you.
Boomer
Big. Fatty. Pukes out bile that attracts a hoard of zombies to the unlucky victim. Can be taken out easily with a few shots, but explodes epically and if anyone is near the explosion, they'll be covered in bile.
Hunter
There will be times you won't see him, but you'll hear him. Be on your guard and look around. His ability allows him to pounce the survivors and dropping them to the ground, clawing out their delicious innards. They're incredible jumpers, and in the right hands, can deal massive damage on the landing alone.
Tank
The biggest zombie you'll encounter. Be VERY CAREFUL when he starts punching, especially when you are a roof. He can punch cars and turn them into flying projectiles. He can lift a massive boulder and hurl it, knocking the unfortunate victim down. If you want this thing to go down and quickly, you and your friends are gonna have to work together to bring this behemoth down.
Witch
To quote my friend "DON'T ******** WITH THE WITCH!" You'll know one is nearby by the sobbing noise. If there is an alternate path, take it. But if its in the way, turn off your lights and sneak by quietly.

Weapons!
The Pistol
This is your gun that you start off. It is a Springfield Armory M1911. And if you're lucky, you'll be able to duel wield them if you find one lying around the ground. Wielding a single pistol allows for 15 shots, while duel wielding allows for 30 shots.
Tier 1
Pump action Shotgun
One of the two weapons that you can pick up early on in a campaign. Holds eight shells, while carrying a max of 128. Slow reload, massive amounts of power, but has a great potential of accidentally hitting your teammates they are near a group of zombies you're aiming at.
Uzi
Fast and spits out a lot of bullets. 50 bullets per magazine, while allowing the player to carry up to 450. Somewhat weak, but the focus fire allows you to fire at a group of zombies while reducing the chance of hitting your teammates.
Tier 2
Benelli M4 Super 90 Shotgun
Fast. Allows you to shoot without pumping. Perfect for taking out huge mobs of infected and allowing you to deal a ton of damage to a Tank, if you get the chance to get close to one. 10 Per magazine, still with a carrying max of 128. The chance for friendly fire is higher, due to the speed
M16A3
One up from Uzi. Incredibly accurate, A hell of a lot stronger. Magazine allows for 50, with carrying max of 380 rounds. Just like the Uzi, lower chance friendly fire while firing at a mob of infected if an ally is near a group.
Ruger Mini-14 rifle
Powerful. Can go through zombies, doors, and hit more zombies. Fantastic in narrow hallways where one headshot can mean up to 10 headshots. Can drop zombies in one shot. Only really effective in narrow hallways. Horrible while taking on a mob that surrounded you. 15 per magazine, with a carrying max of 180 rounds.
Healing Items.
You can only carry one of each :3
Medkit
Heals the player up to 80 if he is in the red. Always found in the safe house, but hard to find while en route to the next one.
Pain pills
Fairly common. Brings up the player's overall health up, but degrades over time. Good for keeping you alive just a bit longer.
Explosives
Again, one of each.
Pipe Bombs
Very effective. Time the throw just right, it can wipe out a massive hoard of zombies. Wonderful little things.
Molotov
Sets the ground ablaze. Any zombie in and any running into it will be incinerated and drop to the ground a few seconds.
With these below, you are force to holster your weapon. So if a mob comes, you can either melee them to death, or throw it behind you and shoot at the zombies.
Propane Tanks
Big explosion. Doesn't lure like the pipe bombs, but can still take out a lot. Can knock back tanks.
Gas Tanks
Just like the molotov, it sets the ground on fire, but in a wider area. Fantastic for defending yourself in the final chapter.

Strategy and Tatics
If you know any, PM me so I can post them up. And of course, you'll get the credit.
Spartans
Best done in a closet. One person crouches and just uses melee only. The other three stand behind him and fires at any zombies. You might get nailed by some of the special infected, but it won't be much. But the person in front will take some damage, so be sure to rotate or heal that person with a medpack.
Boomer alarm
No more bile? Waiting for it to recharge? Stand next to a car that has an alarm. No no, don't duck, just stand. If you get shot and, you will explode, and it will trigger the car alarm. Its just like bile, but much bigger.
Suicide bomber
Bind the kill command to K as a Boomer. If your tired of waiting you can, if possible, sneak up to them, and make yourself explode. They'll be covered in bile and you would have made the most out of your life as a boomer.
Luring
Stand behind the Witch and get shot at. Most of the time, the bullets will hit the witch instead and go apeshit on the person who did. Another idea is as a smoker, drag someone towards the witch.
