route, allowing the lead player to clear a path while
descending the stairs—the pump shotgun is ideal for
this. Whatever your decision, keep the team together
while moving through the staircase or skylight.
Splitting up at this point could be disastrous.
Third Floor
Regardless of which entry point your team has
chosen, be ready to open fi re as soon as you
reach the third fl oor. Expect light to moderate
concentrations of common infected on this fl oor.
Quickly survey your surroundings and make sure all
your teammates have clear angles on the hostiles.
The lighting is poor on this fl oor so keep your
fl ashlights on to illuminate dark corners and rooms.
Make quick work of the zombies on the third fl oor
while pushing toward this stairway in the center of
the building. Be careful when turning the corner to
peer down the stairs. This is a popular ambush point,
particularly for Boomers hoping to trigger a swarm
attack. If you encounter one here, don’t shoot! Instead,
push the Boomer down the stairs with a melee strike
and make the kill a safe distance away.
Infected
When playing as the infected in versus
mode, look for this breakaway wall
near the kitchen. While in ghost mode,
you can move through this wall and
hide inside this otherwise inaccessible
space. Spawn inside this space and
wait for the survivors to enter the
third fl oor. As they pass your position,
knock down the wall with a melee
strike and attack them from behind.
This is a great tactic for picking off
lone stragglers, particularly when
playing as the Hunter or Smoker. But
a Boomer can also make use of this
space by spawning, breaking through
the wall, and vomiting on the
survivors while they’re all
bunched up in the staircase
leading down to the second fl oor.
