So just had a few goes and a few rounds on the Survivor mode.
Definitely a nice addition to the game and very fun. But you absolutely positively need competent players, and preferrably all mates, and as others may have noted already, microphone communication is a must.
Having just finished a few goes on the "No Mercy" one I can see that it's simply just not doable with random people. People just don't seem to 'get it' at the moment. I know we're all new to it, but there are some basic obvious (to me at least) principles which people don't seem to get:
1. Gotta stick together.
2. Can't 'closet camp'. The tanks will rape you.
3. Save your fucking pipes and molotovs! Everytime I see someone throw off a pipe in the first 10 seconds I just think of that Captain Picard facepalm pic that does the rounds on forums.
So yeah, what's everyone else's thoughts here? I'm hoping as time goes on people learn the basics and pubbing can be fun. Me and my mates only have a couple of days a week we can get arrange to together online for L4D so pubbing is where I'm at for the most part.
