It was announced a few days ago that the 2nd new special infected for Left 4 Dead 2 would be the spitter. As the name suggests, the spitter is able to spit a huge gob of...something at the survivors. Apon hitting it causes damage over time. However, this isn't the only way to attack survivors. Once a the green spit lands on the ground it turns red, causing damage over time in a small area, kind of like a molotov. This was made as another attempt to stop survivors bunching up in a corner, as the Spitter can flush them out.

Now, there was footage that came with this announcement of the next campaign (it's set in a swamp). Though we saw the spitters attack in the distance, we never got a good look at the thing itself.

Well, I've found a picture. Seriously, if your of a nervous disposition you don't want to open this. This is by far the most disgusting Special infected of the lot, and possibley the most hilarious.

First thought: Oh God, who the fuck designed that?

Second thought: Holy shit, that's fucking awesome!

Uh wow, I'm really impressed. That is almost as creepy as the first time I saw a Witch. I just wish the new characters weren't so dumb...

She looks truly terrifying, though her attack actually sounds pretty useful. Finally a corner killer that's not a Tank. But what does the Charger look like?

P.S-We have another female infected besides the witch! She looks like the Boomer's sister.
I'm happy to see that there is a zombie that can keep us from bunching up in one spot, also, and it does look like the Boomer's sister.

If I recall seeing it correctly the charger is this really big guy in overalls that does exactly what it sounds like.

Just found a pic from a google search.

Am I the only one to think "Inkvine" when reading this? (Although tbh I only ever played the Dune PC games, so my understanding of the Duneiverse is limited at best, and IDK if Inkvine is actually present beyond E:BFD.....)

The design is pure win.

Holy crap, that is that freakiest thing I have ever seen, I gonna have nightmares about that, I just know it. I mean is that thing a male or female, because that Spitter gave me the most wtf response ever, although it sounds like it could be a really strong zombie.

He was in the first trailer and has been in many gameplay videos since.
