Smoker Instant Kills

**Hunter_Punter** · 01-27-09, 03:22 PM

I got a good one that someone probably mentioned but, on Blood Harvest (Part with Corn Field) I rest at where there is a fall leading into the Corn Field and snag up the person who is last to go down. If you are in a good spot, there is no way for them to kill you.

If you want, you can add me.

Wait a second, let me get this straight. The smoker can no longer pull a survivor from that little platfrom in NMFinale? That's ridiculous! That wasn't an exploit, it was applying real world and game physics to your strategies!

I think they're saying it no longer gives an instakill, which is still kinda lame. guess I'll have to enjoy it while I can before they patch the 360 version, which knowing Valve shouldn't be ANY time soon.

I'm not sure if it was in our game yesterday Metall, but I think it was....

Anyways, I nabbed someone as the smoker, from the default satellite position, and drug him off the roof. Before it would be near instant red with the fall (I've never seen someone just die), now what it did was hang him from my building, and after about 3-5 seconds or so, he was red and incap'd. He was formerly full health, as we did not attack them in the hallway at the start. I think this was fair to me for the good grab, and fair to him, as he was given more time to be saved than I remember. He ended up living, for any one who's curious (random shotty pellet broke the tongue, he laid on the ground, and was rescued with about 3HP left bleeding out....damn.)

Yeah, that was our game, I remember it. Did the exact same thing to someone on our turn too.

I see what you mean now, I was afraid they just put up invisible walls so you can't get dragged off at all.

lol Neon was not pleased with that drag....

If they put up invisible walls...I'm driving to Seattle (I think that's where they are...)

In nomercy you can do it if a survivor is stupid enough to get on the edge of nomercy 1st safe place. And you(smoker)'re on the higher roof, well where the smokers usually spawn.

Instant kills hardly exist in the game, and if they do, they aren't spread around on forums because they'll get fixed. Majority of people don't realize they die from instant kill spots.

Regardless, just remember to position yourself near ledges, like on NM4, NM5, NM2, BH1x2, and BH5.

Look for them there, they are the most common ones used. These ones usually result in a kill, even if the other team is averagely good.

Mind you if it's a skilled/decent team, it won't always work.
