    A couple of noob questions

    Hi everyone

    1) How can me and a friend effectively kill a tank on expert?, its destroying us every time we try to play lol

    2) If we make it to a save point on expert and turn the xbox off... If we turned it back on could we continue from where we left off or would we have to start the whole campaign again?

    3) Are there anymore campaigns available for download/will there be any new campaigns for downloads

    Thanks for any help!

    1) It takes strategy. Generally speaking, don't let the tank hit you. Shoot and scoot as it chases after you. If all else fails, try getting it to chase one of you while the other follows behind it emptying round after round into its back. You could also try setting it alight with a molotov, which nets you an achievement ("Towering Inferno" I think is the name of it).

    2) You can start from any save point at any time. However, if you start afresh you lose any tier 2 weapons you may have had going into it.

    3) None yet.

    1) I don't like playing on Expert, but Chris's method works best in any difficulty setting (on Easy you don't even need skill to kill one though). Another "method" is simply running away from it while shooting, but you need open space for that.
    2) I don't have an Xbox
    3) Not yet, but they've announced extra stuff (including extra campaigns) for the PC soon. I expect this to be released on Xbox in time too.

    1) Setting it on fire can be a good idea, but after one posted on this forum that the tank run faster when on fire (with video) I think it will be best in some situations to just shoot and run.
    Approve or Disapprove, it is all lies and truthes, but nothing is nothing even not the word.

    Usually leading the tank into a jungle gym is good, like make the tank climb as much as possible. Keep climbing trucks and ledges and stuff and make him come after you. Also: shoot the tank! lol I only say that cause on Versus this is the key step many forget

    Very good suggestion indeed. During the NM finale for example, I make sure I'm on the roof with the gattling when the tank arrives, shoot while he runs towards the building, shoot when he's climbing up and once he's done climbing, I jump off and continue shooting from down there.
    Climbing slows the tank down.

    1) Auto-Shotties work well against Tanks, spread and pump his zombie arse with lead.

    2) I am not sure about saving from somewhere, but you can choose your chapter. However, if your going for an achievement, do the whole thing.

    3) I bloody hope so

    on expert I find it to be best to set him on fire and haul ass out of there. he'll be dead in 40 seconds or less.
