I was playing NM1 after the 'Survial Pack DLC' came out, (like 5 mins ago then!) and I jumped off the rooftop to go play with the Hummer (off topic, but there were regular horde standing ontop of it so the 'death zone' doesn't affect them, but still kills me!), but because I didnt grab a health pack, I was incapped quickly by a couple of zombies (sorry, long day at school) and even though it was on medium! (default settings, I play adv. usually), I was shooting at the zombies but I got bored so I tried holding down melee and shooting at the same time, and for some reason it muted my pistol, I was still firing but no sound was being produced, and when I released melee it went back to normal!
After a few mins of testing I worked out the bullets do not damage other survivors and do not produce a bullet hole in any surface while holding melee and shooting when incapped, but however, they are still able to kill the regular infected. I tested this in other areas of NM1 and it still works.
Not an exactly helpful thing but still noteworthy, so can someone else check this out and make sure that me or my game are not finally loosing it...
If that wasn't clear on how to do it or you want the tl;dr version,
1. Get incapped
2. Fire pistol while holding melee
3. Listen if the shots are muted
4. ???
5. Profit
Thanks!
