![]() However, if the Jockey was knocked off, the recharge-rate will be considerably shorter - around 7 seconds. When a Jockey successfully incapacitates someone and jumps off, it will take approximately 30 seconds before he can jump onto another Survivor. When a player is incapacitated, the Jockey leaps off of the Survivor. The player can try to steer in a better direction, but can't outright resist where the Jockey drives them. Some players may have noticed that this does not always require leaping, as sometimes just landing on them from a higher area will cause him to grab on. The clawing does not do as much damage as the Hunter does (dealing only 1 damage at Easy difficulty, 4 damage on Normal). When the Jockey lands on a Survivor's head, he grabs onto them and claws at the Survivor with his free hand while leaning in a direction to cause the Survivor to stumble. Though he can not jump as far as the Hunter, he does not have to crouch to charge up the ability. He can use his ropey frame to jump long distances at a time, and about 15-20 feet when leaping upward. The Jockey is a Special Infected that has animal-like characteristics. Also, against what is commonly believed, moving in the same direction as the Jockey will not make it steer you any faster, even though, theoretically, it should. When there is a Jockey on the back of a Survivor, the Survivor can still move to resist the Jockey's influence over them, though this only has a slight resistance and will merely slow the Survivor to a slow walk. The hands are always twitching and shaking (the right one twitching notably more often than the left), and he doesn't stop laughing until death. The arms, however, stick out straight, and sport a coat of what appears to be blood. When playing as the Jockey, his hands are curved downward, similar to a praying mantis. According to Valve commentary, the mutations are the cause of the Jockey's mania, causing the Jockey to laugh. He has a gibbering vocalization, and cackles hysterically while riding a Survivor. ![]() He wears a tattered white T-shirt and blue boxers. This could possibly be due to him chewing and biting away at his lips because of mania, or possibly even clawing at his mouth due to the same reason. His lips, and the skin surrounding them, have deteriorated away, giving him a more skeletal look at the mouth area. His fingers and toes have increased in length, adding to his baboon-like profile. The Infection has caused the Jockey to develop a large amount of muscle mass on his upper back and neck, making him hop around in a spider monkey-like motion. The Jockey's hands as seen when playing as him The best antidote to a Jockey attack is a shove from a teammate. Survivors have limited control over where the Jockey is directing them. Once they’ve locked onto the head of an unsuspecting Survivor, a Jockey can steer them away from their teammates into danger or behind obstructions.

Damn cool party trick to bust out, just FYI. ![]() It’s a defining feature of Spitter acid, after all, so we top up the drink with quinine-infused tonic water which glows under a blacklight. Lastly, I wanted the drink to be able to glow. Combing it with the spiced simple gives us a sweet/sour combo that still has a bite of acid emphasised with some spice. I couldn’t just dump a bunch of grapefruit juice in there though, as it’d quickly become unpalatable. Second, I wanted it to be fairly acidic, almost caustic. Muddled cucumber gives it that lovely flemmy look and provides that distinctive green Spitter acid in-game is so known for. In making the Spitter Spatter, a drink inspired by this disgusting creature, I wanted to achieve a few things.įirst, it had to look gross. You might also like: The Melta Bomb from Warhammer 40k. It also really doesn’t help that the Spitter is incredibly gross with those hacking noises she makes before attacking. In a game that is all about swiftly moving from one section of the map to another, that is a powerful ability. Hunters might spring out of nowhere and down you for a few seconds and Chargers might split the party up, but there’s no special infected quite as good at area denial as the Spitter. The Spitter is one of these newly added special infected and is, in my opinion, one of the most irritating. Left 4 Dead 2 took what I loved about the original game and just gave me more of it: more weapons, more maps, more characters, more zombies and, of course, more special infected. ![]()
