The Left Out Screamer
The Screamer was a character developed during the early days of the first Left 4 Dead. The concept behind the screamer is a combination of both the Witch and Boomer we have now. The Screamer would roam various stages of a map and much like the Witch, when you come close to him you start to piss him off. Get too close and he starts running and screaming. His screams work similar to the Boomer in that hordes of zombies will come rushing at you. He needed to be killed for the hordes to stop coming.
The Screamer was cut from L4D because the developers thought it was too difficult for the Survivors.
Maybe it is time to see the Screamer come to life in L4D3?

I think if there was a screamer, the screaming would become really annoying with the right sound. Also, the boomer already takes the role of attracting more zombies. You only have so much ammo before you have to mow them down with double pistols and pipe bombs. I guess it would be cool to fight more hordes of infected, but I think they shouldn’t be blown too far out of proportion. Maybe if they just sent sprawls of about 10-15 common infected in reps, or alerted zombies farther from survivor site. Let’s just see what Valve can do.
Need Dog Zombies that sprint fast and drag you into hordes but they come in 2-3s cus there weak as s***, or f***** birds like out of resident evil you need like the flamethrower to kill em and s***, and need to run into local survivors that you watch die by like some f***** up scenio like run into like a squad of army men and they get f***** up by a tank or sumthin and its like a awesome super tank with armor on
the screamer is a good idea it should not be usable because people will hide or keep away from survivors so they face a bunch of zombies and die.any way its okay much i don’t think it needs to changed
My Friend..says: i have L4D3 in my laptop
?
Me:i dont belive it!!!
Friend:yes i have…
Me:your lying!!…
Friend:you dont Belive it..
My Friend is lying out there… the L4D3 is dont exist yet..(maybe) But The Valve are making idea but… my Firend says : i have already…
how about A Dragger… THAT zombie can drag suvivor from the team far away…
press click to Stomp the suvivor-10HP in one stomp
press W,a,s,d, to Drag him again
Weakness shoot at his Scar on the Hand…
Only my idea to L4D3..
Naaa…
what if there was a special infected that sat on top of buildings and had sort of search light eyes that kind of scowered the ground and if the light from its eyes spotted you it would let out an eerie screech that caused a bunch of witches to come out of alleyways and buildings and stuff and walk towards all the survivers. the only way to kill him/her was an instant shot to the head or theyd screech. it would be possible to sneak around the lights though. i think that would be pretty cool.

An idea for a special infected could be ‘The Greeser’, much like a boomer but instead when you shoot it some greese gunk s*** comes out which knocks the characters (by slipping) to the ground temporarily (and causing impact damage) which would leave them prone to an attack from the horde. Basically the more you shoot the Greeser the more greese spilt onto the ground and the only way to kill it is through multiple head shots.
For survivors anyone really just as long as they include an oriental character that could be a yakuza or triad crime boss.It would be interesting to see.
If VALVe doesn’t allow you to create a character they should atleast let you choose your characters clothing like in Deadrising 1 and 2 it would make it a whole lot better if it allowed you to customize the given or chosen character to make his/her clothing fit your personality.
Just an idea from: Kamron
They should have like zombie kids or zombie midgets or something. Lol.
I have an idea for a new special infected called the kamikaze what he would do is run into a groop of survivors and explode dealing hefty amounts of damage and stumbling back survivors he would also explode when shot at. He would have very low health like the boomer.
….Dragon Ball Z….Just Stop!
I got 2 special infected.The Scarecrow and Pouncer.The Scarecrow is a another version of The Witch,except it dosen’t have claws and it doesn’t cry.And the Pouncer is a female Hunter except she’s faster and stealther.Can we create survivors too?Of so,make my fan charactars real!Their names are Susan and Dawn.Susan worked at Mercy Hospital before the infection and she worked at Save4Less in summer.And Dawn is a 13 yearold girl that ecscaped her school before the infection.Also make Keith a charctar
You stole these ideas not just from me but from other people, too. I can’t stand unoriginal people especially the one who steal thier ideas from others!
OMG It’s Christmas. This is a zombie apocalypse not X-men.
i think their should be a new boss called “The Infected Survivor”
basicly what it is, is a bitten by a zombie (still alive) running around killing anything and everything. that includes basic horde zombies, smokers, boomer, tanks, witches, hunters, jockeys, spitters, and you. they carry anything from a baseball bat to a machine gun. they have medium/low health. they look pale cluchting a wound (neck/arm/leg/chest/stomach) shouting gibberish.
i have a great idea for two boss zombies. To replace the tank is the raider he sounds like a charger but really isnt. The raider can appear in varous maps or places that are very queit. Instead of a signal alarming you it is very quiet and the only thing you can hear of it is its crawling. Then when your not looking it attacks like a hunter but its agility is very fast and its life level will be extremly high and it will only get stronger if you shoot bullets at it hence before he was zombified he was shot and killed thus after being injected with zombie blood he formed into a great beast with its attack of strong reflexes of a normal tank and if the other survivors try to help 2 more arms will start growingand plummet into the survor thus leaving only one left to kill it and its only weakness is a molotov! the second to replace is the CHARGER. it is like a tiger zombie and human infected combined. Its speacil power it has large claws like a wicth that gives 10% of life levl away and it can also bite like a tiger but its teeth are so big its jaw was ripped out and it is also a very strong competiter with its weakness being melee weopens like a machete , chainsaw or( if they ever put this is l4d 3) a crossbow! Those are my suggestions so i hope when they release the game these creatures will be in the game if not who cares its left4dead3 its gonna be awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!XD
i have a great idea for a new speacil infected. The radius and the graver. The Radius dwells near cave systems and other enclosed places like bathrooms and has 3 legs and two arms aswell and it has like 6 eyes and has the refelxes of a giant spider and its speacil attack is slowing you down with its spider webs and the graver is super cool! He is a very scary creature you donot want to meet it has no arms but one leg and only one pair of eyes and its speacil attack is blowing up like a creeper from minecraft. If you get near it the Graver would first give you a warning by growling really hard and if you shoot it, it would explode like a boomer and blood will come gushing out and the boom will be so loud that it would bring down that horde and getting too close to it while it blows decrases your health by 20 if your plaing easy and in expert by 50. Cool and i hope valve puts this in the gAME OR IF THEIR WORKING ON ANY OTHER speacil infected than you can put the speacil attacks on them i hope the game releases soon and your series opf left 4 dead never ends Yes keep up the good work guys!
My idea was the Screecher: Basically a mix between a boomer and a witch. The Screecher runs faster than other infected and makes a loud ear- splitting screech that attracts the horde and, if near a survivor, stuns the survivors. It has medium health.
I know, I know… Sounds like the Screamer… The Screecher doesn’t stay in one place and mostly comes out when you alert the horde. Also. It does a good deal of damage but not enough to make it overpowered.
i think their should be a infected bill , where hes dead but of course back as a special infected fast and quite , like a hunter. his secondary attack is he can throw his military knife at you , tipped with poison & poison you until you heal or get incapped . or an instant incap on Realism or Expert & poison you until you heal or die. The other idea of his secondary attack he could slash at you with his knife doing damage , but causing you too bleed losing health . Bills primary attack could be him running at you the stabbing you repeatedly in the stomach , whilst covering your mouth , but the player has to move forward to release his hand to scream and also while trying to move towards the group . After being repeatedly stabbed too incapped stage , you’ll have to run off too regain your strength , you could either run off and try it on another survivor , or go to an incapped survivor and choke them until they die , but the survivors do scream and sound like their choking when you’re doing it. – eli . this is just an idea so whatcha think ?
does anyone else remember the cut out special infected from l4d2? i think his name was Haggard or something. kind of looked like a charger but with long hair and a ton of spikes stuck in his back and he would throw those spikes at you. i thought that wouldve been a cool infected. possibly have it be that guy instead of a tank sometimes and have the screamer instead of the witch but have the screamer just run in a circle so you can kill him but just have to be quick. have it random so sometimes youll get either one of those 2 instead of the others so people dont stick with the same strategies game after game
dam thats all sick and nice i bet the game is better than the 1st one ans the second one the zombies and infecteds are all sick.
It would be awesome if the guy screamer rips his arms out of his jacket and attacks you like a witch instead of running away
if you make the screamer do that it defeats the purpose of a screamer the point of a screamer is to run and scream and the entire time she is screaming endless amounts of horde come to attack you until you kill the screamer
I want to hunt down the screamer and kill off a ton of hordes and then put a shotgun slug through the screamers head.. I’m not the only l4d player that wants to do this am i????
yeah bring on the screamer
Bring the screamer VALVE quit being a b****!!!!
As kool as the charger is they should keep him but make another that only comes out in diff spots here in there like make his entire body the same size and give him an armored front side to where you cant kill him if you try to shoot him in front you have to get his back to kill him and i think it would be kool if the witch doesnt just stay in one spot but hunts you down…… Imagine hard rain with like 5 witch trying to hunt and kill all of the survivors hard but i think it would be badass.
i thought of a special infected kinda weird though but whatever… you know when there a survive who is either ahead or behind the group? what if there was a zombie that grabs him/her from behind covering his/hers mouth and hiding him/her in a room where him/her cant get out without the other people help(like when u die in a campaign map)while his/hers health is slowly decreasing. and they are forced to go either ahead or behind to save him/her looking in every room. the special infected has low health and if u spot him he will book it. his name… ? leave a suggestions for it if u like the idea.
If you’ve actually played L4D2 you’d know that you just perfectly described the Jockey..
The Snatcher. Your idea is awesome!
Why not make infected that are children and they have this eerie childish cry and they crawl on walls and stuff, just imagine being on that bridge on L4D2 when you hear the cries and out of nowhere, a horde of climbers crawl from under the bridge.
YES!!! I wanted creepy kids too. For one, kids are already creepy, but I’d rather see one replace the witch rather than just be a normal special…super fast, kind of quiet except for maybe a creepy giggle, and it attacks you below the waist so you could potentially not even see it until it was jacking up your legs, making you go down instantly just like the witch does. But to take it up a notch, allow it to also take down other survivors, not just stay on the 1st survivor it takes down.
i would want that to!
for a good special infected their should be a mutated bug/human mix that is fast and easy to kill but does medium amounts of damage and can fly. also psychopath humans should be added to mix it up
The Screamer concept is great.But for another special infected a special infected called the Injecter. His hands much like syringes he charges at the character like a Charger but with his arms first and he stabs the player with his long syringe like fingers and stars in ijecting them with a very mutated strain of “Green flu” even though immune to the common strain the survivors can get infected. If not saved\rescued before death by the Injector the survivor turns into an infected called the Fallen which is like a common infected with the endurance of a tank! If rescued before death there life meter turns purple and begin at 50% and plummits little by little by 1% the player starts changing and begins to attack others. This can be heal by a first aid kit or can be slowed by injecting yourself with Vaccine which will be held in your Pills inventory box! This also add another level to the danger and adds a sacrifice elemant to the game!
I like that idea alot..i agree.they should have an infected to have thr ability to turrn surivors into infected after some time if not treated…:)
I think thats a beast idea, it would make the game alot more challenging and WAY more fun, when left 4 dead 3 comes out iam so going to get it for PC so if they dont add all these badass ideas, i can make them myself.
Is this really true?! >_>
Well that could replace the Tank so there are two equal boss zombies, but that could get annoying after a while so maybe not. Or like a disable button so you don’t have to deal with him.
that would be cool maybe the “cure” is in a syringe that can only be found in a safe room? you could carry the antidote along with you but you must sacrifice a med kit! what do you think?
I think great idea!
The Screamer is a very good idea, however the male version looks a lot like the Ram from Dead Island. It’s the straight jacket, which L4D probably thought of first, but Dead Island got it out on the market first. The issue right now is that they need at least another special to go along with L4D2 when they released the Spitter, Jockey and Charger. But the question is, what else can a zombie do? There could be one that hides in the shadows alone and then latches on the the trailing survivor, but that sounds like a Jockey and Smoker combined… Or perhaps it doesn’t make any noise at all and is just silent when it attacks so there is no warning except for the piano music. But then it’s not really special, just quiet. They could go Resident Evil and throw in some zombie dogs or something… What if they made another Tank? Obviously not a Tank, but something of equal strength and size? And they could every so often exchange the Tank with this new one? Not sure, but when they do think of other specials, all of us will have the thought, “Why didn’t I think of that?”
I just say the trailer for the concept designs for new specials and I saw one for the Haggard. He’s big like the Tank, but the has shrapnel coming out of every limb and his torso. So I was thinking, use this concept so that he runs at them the same, but instead of throwing rocks or hitting a car, he just runs and thrashes about dealing more damage to survivors which will, in turn, cater to the more experienced players.
Yay. Gonna need more special infected tho…
The “Screamer” is a good idea for a special but maybe something more like a combo of the witch and hunter. the same get to close and you’re screwed part but with the ability to get close to the survivors in a jump that makes her looks like she is actually flying would be a good trait. but instead of crying make her sing. a warm welcoming song that make people want to walk to her. Sorta like a siren or an evil mermaid. Make her look like a beautiful woman at first. And when a survivor get close see peers over her shoulder. It is a glance that put fear into your soul but you still want to come close. And when she stands completely up her eye’s turn a bloody red then turns into a ugly crone something like that and jumps around the survivors in her flying fashion attracting hordes to your location and when the horde finally gets there she jumps onto the survivor that got here screaming and starts shredding them. That would be a very good special infected.
Your ideas are not very realistic
uh…no that would be a terrible special infected. and I’ve heard some bad ideas but really? “warm welcoming song that make people want to walk to her.” if i heard a song in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, i wouldn’t walk over there because that were all the zombies would be, they like sounds right? “her flying fashion attracting hordes to your location.” I didn’t know zombies like each other even though if u played the game u would notice that they randomly beat each other up during game play. “Make her look like a beautiful woman.” huh i also didn’t know that zombies could be beautiful considering they eat flesh and have wounds all over.
i would think the song would make the character move against your control and send aroma’s in the air to make it seem like a beautiful woman but when you get close it shrieks alerting the horde
Dude that i awesome, a WITCH-HUNTER.
