All right, thanks. Really appreciate it. 👆 As long as you try, that's all that matters in my book, not whether we succeed or not.
Yeah. Most people in general that have the achievement usually never want to go through doing it again, so it makes it all that much harder for me to find someone that has it who is willing and patient enough to help me on it.
Can't say I blame them though. If I already had Nothing Special, I'd most likely be like "Sorry dude, you're on your own" when asked for assistance on it by someone.

Anyhow, it's not that hard to still do once you get the gist of it. Just rush through the levels as fast as possible (the longer we wait, the more time we'll give special infected opportunities to spawn somewhere. Don't even worry about taking damage from common infected since we'll be doin' it on Easy, and melee them out of the way and continue running), and make sure all 4 are together when you see a Boomer/Hunter/Smoker/Witch/Tank warning and turn back to regroup if you need to (have the full caption thing on under options).
At least one of us should always have a molotov in case a Tank comes (then run as far away from it as possible when it's on fire), and only attack a Witch if you know you can shoot her in the back of the head with a shotgun. Wouldn't hurt for at least one player to bring the sniper rifle with them too (mainly for the Smokers that spawn in those hard-to-get areas).
Not sure which campaign to keep trying it on, but I've found myself to have the best luck on Death Toll so far, so unless anyone has a better idea, I guess I'll probably stick with that.
Other than that, I think that pretty much covers it. I've casually watched some playthroughs of Nothing Special on YouTube also, so I know it's still do-able with just 2 people.
