Speaking of people who don't listen online... I hate when people think that just because they don't have a mic means that they don't have to listen.
This is from an online Campaign I played with 3 random people about a week ago.
We were in the safe room at the start of the No Mercy finale. I ask if anyone needs "Untouchables" because I know of a way to get it (Jesus Room). Anyway, the other two that have a mic say they don't have it yet, so I start telling them how we'll get it. I'm telling everyone about the plan and then BOOM, the door opens and the guy without a mic takes off.
The plan involves two people staying in the safe room for a while anyway, so they stay there while I go to cover this guy. We get through the corridor, take out the Tank, and get onto the roof. I hop above the door to the Jesus room while telling him not to kill any of the Infected yet. I turn to see that he's been on the roof picking them off this whole time. I think "whatever" because the door opens anyway.
So we call in the rescue and we get to the back of the room and we're waiting. 1st horde passes... 1st Tank comes and goes... but during the second horde, the guy with no mic apparently got bored and he started "dancing" around the room. I keep telling him to get back or he might accidentally walk out the door. Wouldn't you know it, he accidentally (that's questionable) steps outside the room for a split second, then comes rushing back to the back of the room. I'm thinking "Okay, maybe it will still work. No zombies came to the door so maybe they still don't know where we are."
So we go back to waiting. The 2nd Tank comes and dies and as soon as Francis shouts "The chopper's here, let's go!" we all file out of the room and towards the ramp to get out of there. Apparently, the zombies did find out we were there, because as soon as we stepped outside, I was grabbed by a Smoker and two of them got swarmed in front of the door, basically trapping the fourth guy inside for a while. They get free and help me out. Me and another guy throw our pipe bombs in opposite directions to avert some of the horde, then we silently make our way to the chopper and end the campaign.
That's why I don't like playing with people who don't have mics. If it turns out that they still listen or are actually good players, it's fine. But it's when they don't listen and decide to go "Rambo" that pisses me off.
