That's it,EVEN SOME EXPERTS FAIL ON THESE,AND DIED.
(I am not talking about trash info such as "Do not play like L4D")

#1 Do not block the door to the dealer
Other troubles will at most result in your death(such as going rambo). But this? YOUR SQUAD WAS WIPED OUT.
Do not stop just at the door while buying gun. All other members are waiting for your releasing your honorable arse to get stuff. Please get off the door.
Do not block the door to get OUT of the shop when you finished your purchase.

The map HospitalHorrors is voted to be the #1 difficult map. But my men(LV6*6,extremely skilled) ran this map and bedlam on HOE. It is not as difficult as Bedlam. (Yeah,bedlam is pretty true as a nightmare) I can imagine most guys are blocked in the shop by newbies at the door,and jammed in getting killed. Sucks.

If expert,take this word:"No buying guns more than 10 sec."

#2 Do not engage FP/Scrakes unless urgent status,or you are the perk to do this (AntiFP-demo,AntiSC-SS/zerker/LAW demo).

#3 Do not block the fire sector of the teammates.
On normal status this is unlikely to happen,but there is one status. This rule is vitally important to the medic who is bodyblocking the FP! Crouch and allow all shotgun shells/grenades off your backbone!

While the I feel your pain, there is a HUGE thread (maybe two) that is already geared towards this.

Well,I have a ton more info and tips to say,but they are all perk/scene related. The trader door is the most way leading to tragedy.

As with me? (Commando LV6,empty 750 rounds on HOE on almost every situation after wave 4/7)

Some examples:

(Support to take out a FP:
Grenades*2,HS jump blast,grenades*2,HS jump blast,AA12,over.)

(Support carrying a katana is worth 10 times more than support without it. Use the katana to cut the small zeds. When large one or groups arrive,switch to HS and jump blast.)

(The more skilled a Support is,the fewer AA12 auto fire he uses,the more HS shells he uses,the more katana he uses.)

I hardly ever find a server without the anti-block mod.

I do remember the days when the mod wasn't as prevalent. Lazy retarded people taking half a step into the trader and chilling out 'till the shop closed. I'm not an outwardly aggressive gamer, but more than one occasion this type of stuff had me in a shouting fit over my mic.
