He is saying in multiplayer it's more efficient to squeeze out as many points as possible in the EARLY rounds instead of ignoring them just because you can get more points later in the game. Early rounds are much easier and safer then later rounds which is why you do this in the first few rounds to build momentum faster.
Yup. You got it.

WELL GUESS WHAT I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE EXTRA 150 POINTS WHEN MY WAY IS SAFER.
SO NOW I WILL STATE IT AS CLEARLY AS POSSIBLE FOR YOU.
MY WAY HAS BENEFITS JUST AS YOURS DOES. IM NOT SAYING THAT MY WAY IS THE ONLY ONE LOGICAL, EVERY STRATEGY HAS IS POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES. I WILL USE MINE BECAUSE I PREFER SAFE AS OPPOSED TO A FEW EXTRA POINTS! YOU CAN GO RIGHT AHEAD AND USE YOURS FOR A FEW EXTRA POINTS AS OPPOSED TO SAFE.
Please for the grace of god do not reply to me without looking at it from my point of view. I stated many times that i see what you are saying and i already knew what you stated because i used to do that strategy also but i chose a different way now.
Look, I was just pointing out the benefits of using my strategy. My intention was never to make others look unintelligent, and especially not make myself look super-intelligent. I'm sorry if you feel that way after reading my post. It's very basic math as you have said, it is not meant to impress anyone. Anyone who tries to gauge the intelligence level of someone else on a VIDEO GAME FORUM must be very naive. But if name calling makes you feel better, please continue.
When we get both max ammo and double points, we usually have about 5000 by round 3 or 4. That is compared with 1900 or so without. When you think about how few zombies there are, you have to figure that most would be killed while you have 2x active. The result? You have basically 2x as many points OVERALL: instead of about 2000, you'll have about 4000. Ammo saves you another 600 since you don't have to buy the ghewer. Bombs that don't kill any zombies will give you even more. Windows by round 4 you can get over 300 points (total, cumulative from round one and up).
2000(from 2x) + 600(saved) + 400(bomb) + 300(windows) = 3300 points.
Say you didn't get ammo, you have to buy a gun. You don't get the bomb, and you don't fix windows. You get ~2/3 (a swing NOT in my favor) of points from zombies(0.66x2000) = 1320 points - 600(ghewer). A lousy 720 points.
3300 vs. 720
That will conclude the course in zombie math. The information is right there, use it or not, I don't care.
