User blog comment:Wassboss/RED Team vs Left 4 Dead Gang/@comment-5232784-20120903165411

Dang this is a tough one.

I cannot go through all the weapons right now, I can mention a few here. The machete, right off, is a superior weapon to the Butterfly Knife, due to size, length, and other uses in combat (clearing vegetation for walking through paths and seeing around better, etc). A machete can take a man's head off with one slice. So the left for dead gang has it there in Melee.

The stats on the heavy machine gun shows it has an unlimited amount of ammo. Its hard to understand how this could work outside the game world, other than with some super science, but it more than makes up for the dual minigun advantage of the Sentry Gun. I give the Left 4 dead Gang this too.

The Grenade launcher of the red team can fire several grenades before it needs to be reloaded, while the grenade launcher of the Left 4 dead gang, based on the M79 Blooper (one of the iconic weapons from the Terminator 2 box office wonder) needs reloading after each shot. The RED team wins here.

The autoshotgun is a nightmare weapon. I would hate to have to face someone armed with it. The Scattergun, though a double barreled shotgun, needs a reload after each shot. Nah, not goona compare. The Left 4 dead gang wins again.

The Magnum and revolvers both look pretty awesome. Though both ae very powerful weapons, the Magnum has more bullets. L4D wins again.

Expereince: the RED team has fought well armed opponents, while the L4 Dead team fights zombies (How many types?), which are dumb as posts and make slow, easy targets (though my ignorance is grand about left 4 dead: are there any projectile throwing zombies? Are their super-sized and super-human-strength zombies? Any Presidential canidate zombies? I would have to do more research before I can compare fully the experience capabilities of both parties). However, the L4D team will not have the experience against armed opponents that the RED team has, and the RED team therefore will be fighting a battle they are more used to in this case than the L4D zombie fighters. RED team has the skills in gun-to-gun combat and gunfire warfare experience advantages here.

I Give this to the RED team, due to having more experience fighting armed opponents and more military training.
