Ok. Am I the only one who has issues with the extra infected added to Versus and Scavenge on Left 4 Dead?

Used to be that when playing Versus or Scavenge, the only special infected were those that were played by actual people, no bots. Now there are bot infected to "assist" the infected players. Now, I understand giving the Silver members some help. One special infected against 4 survivors (especially when it is impossible to hide from the bots). And it would otherwise be impossible to get many acheivemets (the ones requiring infected cooperation) unless you had Gold membership.

My problem is that the bot infected do NOT assist. When the extra infected start to spawn the Player's spawn-wait time is doubled. The actual player barely gets to play! And these infected are everywhere! I have played games where I literally just watch and we (the infected) still win. Versus used to take tactic, especially 1 vs. 4. Now it takes no work at all, It's almost boring. This is a major draw-back with survivor players as well. The Special infected:Survivor ration is way worse than that of a normal campaign. I've had three chargers, 2 smokers and 2 jockeys all attack at once. And with the AI Director focusing so hard on these infected, the survivor bots are even more useless than usual, if they don't down right cost you the game. Like Nick healing me when I'm one foot away from a gas can with 5 seconds on the clock. They will heal, almost finish, stop, and start healing all over again. And they will do this for a minute straight. Or they will rufuse to help you up. Neddless to say, games don't take as long as they used to. B(

I love these games. They are the only games I play. And I see why the extra infected are there, I just need to be able to turn them off when I want to.

Does anybody else have these problems?
