How to unlock the Chain Smoker achievement in Left 4 Dead - Definitive Guide
I did this on No Mercy on easy.
Have the survivor shoot 2 of the AI players. Go down the stairs in the first level and around the corner. After you've cleared the room of a few zombies, walk forward a bit such that the AI player is positioned away from where you'll spawn in with your smoker. You don't want the AI player to see you right away and shoot you before you have a chance to attack.
Now, using the first controller(infected), spawn as a smoker and then constrict the AI player. Note, as this happens, a horde of zombies will come in so you may need to switch to the second controller(survivor) and kill a few of the infected. Be careful not to shoot your smoker.
After the AI character is dead, use the first controller(infected) to constrict the survivor using the second controller, who will, obviously, not fight back.
Took me about 10 minutes to do.
As the infected, spawn and intentionally get killed by the lone AI survivor if you spawn as anything other than the smoker. Once you spawn as a smoker, try and get the drop on the AI survivor and snag them. Since the controlled survivor is the only one left, there will be no fear of getting shot while doing this. Once you drop the AI survivor, go in for the hapless controlled survivor.
In versus mode, you must be on the Special Infected team. The Director will randomly choose what Special Infected you spawn as, but you will be able to choose where to spawn. Once the Director chooses you as the Smoker, spawn as far away from the Survivors at that time. This will give you plenty of time to find a spot to constrict the two survivors. After you have grabbed a survivor, the survivor has to make it all the way back to you for you to completely constrict them, thus killing them.
When you have found a good position to attack, line up a shot and press to perform your Tongue Snare attack. Once you have caught someone, just try and stay out of the line of fire enough for your tongue to come back with a little treat at the end.
