Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

It would be more grammatically correct if it was "You just leveled a Charger...".

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

the achievement is Level A Charge - that is why I spelled it and highlighted it that way.

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

:nono: Umm..i'd go with this one..

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

"Level a Charge" isnt a verb.

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

What's "leveling a charger"???

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

Leveling a charge is when you kill a charger while he is charging with a melee weapon, it's only a level if you kill it with a melee weapon.

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

How can a charger charge you with a melee weapon?????? :shock::shock::shock:

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

Curse my grammer XD. You kill the charger with a melee weapon, understood? :)

Re: [L4D2] Level A Charge
 

Haha just kidding :)
