Molotovs are best used against infected enemies, especially on large groups and the tougher ones like Shamblers and Bloaters. Tougher enemies can endure the fire and still have enough health to charge towards you. But even though they can survive, it is still one of the best ways take a huge chunk of health without wasting ammo.
Weaker enemies like Runners and humans who are directly hit by the Molotov will not be able to move from their position until they die. On the other hand, if they caught fire but were not directly hit by the Molotov, they will still be able to move, and will only take a small damage from the fire. The only difference between Runners and humans if they are on fire is that the humans can put out the fire and prevent taking more damage from it. Be sure to take advantage of this and take them out while they are trying to recover from the fire.

I’m more of a stealth player so I didn’t enjoy the boss fight in the hospital. One touch and you’re dead, that’s not enjoyable or realistic. Might as well run outside and kick a bear. I’d get the same thing happen, dead. Too much story in this game as well, I feel like it’s hours of videos that takes away from the game play. Just give me the details and move it along. I don’t need to know who’s screwing who.
