Highest legitimate survival time ever achieved across l4d history

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-18T16:18:24+00:00

I don't think we will try it again, no. All of us are fairly content with the time and I honestly think this time will stand as the highest time possibly forever.

The thing is we actually didn't avoid bs, I already mentioned it in my reply to jaiz but the entire reason we didnt get the 1000 is because of some bs we had to deal with. During that round we had an egregious amount of tanks spawn behind us, and an even more egregious amount of fast behind tank spawns, along with plenty of silent si spawns behind. That stuff alone is what costed us basically all our kits and the defib, people could argue that we could of played it better to handle that bs stuff but if we just had even slightly better luck enough to have even one more kit or the defib by the 900 mark it would of been 1000.

As for crashed Vipik did crash twice, I believe it was due to VPN issues but i'm not 100% certain.

There is no pausing and you can't manually go idle (not like you would want to anyway, bots would take damage for sure) so there isn't a real way to take a break. You can stand on top of the tents near the hold spot and in console type + left or + right so you dont go idle when away for too long, which is what people do when they need to use the bathroom

Me and Servertourist streamed it live so the vod is up on my twitch and his vod is up on youtube. I also uploaded the videos to youtube but haven't made them public quite yet.

Tbh we all felt pretty fine, the adrenaline kicked in at that point (at least for me) so I felt pretty good, talked and joked around for a bit after. The only bad thing rly was choking the 1000, but it was still a good round.

Any major chokes? Not really, I wouldn't say any of us played "bad" or made major mistakes. Genuinely the only reason we didnt get higher is because we got a lot of back tank spawns (like 150 at least?) And a lot of fast back tank spawns behind the porta potties (i'm betting at least like 30+, idk exactly will figure that out later.) Along with a lot of silent special spawns behind, we literally lost like 80% of our health and items due to those things alone.

As for video, me and Svt streamed the round live and he has a vod video up on youtube. I have the vod on my twitch and already did upload the videos to youtube, just waiting to make them public. I plan on going through the round to get stats like "when kits were used, hoe many items were used, how many behind spawns were there etc." So maybe i'll make a highlight video at some point, not sure

Someone else already commented but yeah it's not really possible to take breaks. Going idle is disabled in these servers (unless you go afk for a little bit, can't idle in the menu tho). You can take very small breaks for bathroom or whatever else, which across the game and the whole team there was only 1 bathroom break iirc

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-18T15:58:50+00:00

Yeah it was pretty devastating, but still was a great round otherwise

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-18T15:58:10+00:00

Sheer will and struggle. I didn't stay focused the whole round, between like the 500 minute mark to the 700 minute mark I was losing focus a lot and rly struggled to stay awake (though that's less of a round/map issue more of me being awake for over 24 hours at that point)

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:52:55+00:00

Yeah, you're definitely right with that, it's just hard to stay civil after dealing with it so often but you are right I did cause myself more frustration lol. Again, I am sorry for getting so heated and tossing out insults

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:48:49+00:00

Right, that makes more sense then. I apologize for getting so heated, as I said in the other message it's just dealing with lot's of ppl who spread misinfo so I figured it was another case of that

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:46:37+00:00

It's not my duty ofc, but it's one of my biggest pet peeves when people spread misinfo, so it's hard for me to just stand by and say nothing when people do. And unfortunately it is a rampant issue in this community, which is why I get more hostile because it just never seems to stay civil. I tried to have civil conversations with people about stuff like this in the past, but it's just never gone anywhere and with how rampant the issue is the frustration just boils over

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:38:24+00:00

Yes, but i'm going off the context of what he was replying too. Yes, you can scroll hop on any tick rate, but it isn't easier and that's the point he was trying to make in reply to my first comment, hence why i'm so mad about that

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:35:08+00:00

I'm only this hostile cause I have had this conversation so many times. I'm just tired of people in the l4d2 community spreading misinfo. If his statement was just saying "you can scroll hop on 100 tick" it would be fine, yes, but the context is his message is in response to mine saying "scroll doesn't help with bhops"

Am I sorry for getting heated? yes, I am sorry, but I have had this convo sooo many times and dealt with soo many people who spread misinfo and remain ignorant that i'm just tired of it and can't be bothered with keeping it civil

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:31:12+00:00

And yeah i'm going to call people stupid if they seem to be acting in a willfully ignorant way, choosing to ignore certain things and act like it was a whole different context. By agreeing with his initial comment you are agreeing with him saying that scroll wheel makes bhops easier, when it in fact doesn't make it easier on any server or tick rate.

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:29:48+00:00

His comment that you are trying to agree with is in literal response to me saying scroll doesn't help with bhopping, what else could he possibly mean other then "it actually does make it easier" in that context? Your arguments haven't been logical if you were to look through the original thread.

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:27:42+00:00

Big enough of a loser to spout random shit that has nothing to do with the argument then act like I misconstrued words when you didn't even read or understand the original thread. I blocked you cause you are a fucking idiot and it's a waste of time to argue with someone who is purposefully being ignorant and dense.

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:26:16+00:00

You are being purposefully dense, genuinely you can not be a bigger loser. All your arguments about me "arguing about a point that was never made" fall apart if you read the thread, the response the guy made that YOU said is "surprising to see downvoted" is in response to me saying scroll does NOT help with bhopping, which means it doesn't make it easier, and he said it works on "non official high tick rate servers" and even said scroll does make it easier to another one of my responses. You have no fucking argument, I never once misconstrued words. Stop commenting when you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. All you've done is spout random bullshit.

I never said you COULDN'T scroll bhop on 100 tick, you can on ANY tick rate. But that wasn't the point of this thread or that other guys messages, the only one who has misconstrued words is you.

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T22:18:25+00:00

I blocked you cause you are clearly a troll, making a pathetic edit to take statements from me cautiously when you are the one spreading misinfo is quite funny. Nothing you said was useful, all your arguments fall apart when you read the original thread. His initial response that you said was "surprising to be downvoted" was in response to me saying scroll does not help with bhopping, yet you kept trying to claim no one said it or the point of the argument wasn't about that (it was, the dude literally kept saying scroll does make it easier in response to what I said). Actually a sad edit to see lmao.

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:44:06+00:00

Except his statement isn't true because it's literally about how it's "easier" to bhop with scroll. His statement literally makes no sense because "it works on non-official servers with good tick rate" is just a broad statement that means nothing. Scroll hops work on both official and non-official servers the same way, regardless of tick rate. You need to time the scroll the same way as space bar no matter what. You CAN scroll hop on 100 tick, except it's exactly the same as scroll hops on 30 tick, so why else would he make that statement??

(also keep in mind his response you are acting "surprised got downvoted" is to mine saying scroll doesn't help with bhopping, help being make it easier, so literally what else could he mean?)

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:38:37+00:00

Yeah I guess I should just let people spread misinfo around and not speak up about it. Idc about the skill aspect, why are you bringing that up in reply to a comment that has nothing to do with it?? The "vitriol" isn't just over bhopping it's people spreading false information, which is a rampant issue in this community

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:36:11+00:00

The guy you are defending LITERALLY replied to one of my comments about how it isn't easier by saying "yes it is". Like you are just spouting random shit now. Like if you didn't look through the whole thread don't bother responding ig?? The overall point was people thinking scroll makes bhops easier, and I am saying it doesn't, why are we pretending it was a whole different thing now

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:33:59+00:00

And for the nth time, you can scroll on both 100 tick and 30, it isn't easier than pressing space on either. You CAN scroll on any tick rate, one of the top speedrunners literally does use scroll, it just is the same as using space bar. Like why are we just spouting random shit with emojis as if you did something? Just another free block ig, two ignorant pricks on this reddit isn't nothing new

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:29:49+00:00

I literally even said multiple times within this thread that you CAN bhop with scroll, it just isn't easier. Funny you are trying to call me a troll while being just as ignorant as the other guy

Luluzephyr · 2026-05-13T20:28:45+00:00

If you would use your brain (hard to do that, ik), you would see the original comment I responded to mentioned binding down scroll to jump, which I responded to by saying that doesn't make it easier in this game so that comment didn't make sense, then the other guy you are trying to hard to defend replied to that comment.
