Does anyone else play Left 4 Dead 2 Survival like, a LOT? If so, what maps do you prefer to play and what strategies do you use/what advice would you give?
Personally I basically only play Dead Center Atrium and run laps around the map or hold the top floor. Running laps is easier, and more fun in my opinion.
Advice I would give for running laps on Atrium:
Get the path and escape routes down
Learn how to effectively communicate with your team without slowing down too much, meaning use binds or voice
Learn how to deal with Specials quickly, meaning practice shoving hunters and jockeys, dodging chargers, killing smokers/cutting their tounges before you get pulled, etc.
Always try to help your team if possible, meaning deal with specials that get them, pick them up, and revive them if they die.

I'd like to hear how other people play survival, what maps they prefer, and their strategies. Or just criticize how shit my advice is.

keep teammates alive as they will take the special infected for you, being alone spawns in special infected to pick you off, and just use the good guns and be good

Grenade launcher jump into areas you're not supposed to go. Ez gold medal and world record

Edit: In all seriousness, try to funnel them in from one way so they're easy to deal with and always go for headshots on the special infected. When the tanks show up, spread out and molotov him. Always try to help your teammates or you're just hurting your chances of winning
It feels like I'm paralyzed and I can't escape from the prison I'm living in. I'm naming the voices in my head, they keep on telling me to give in. But it's making me stronger, fight a little longer, I'm gonna bring me back to life. I won't be paralyzed.

Is survival not the really hard version of campaign where most of the helpful UI (player silouettes) are off?
