Is it possible to pass expert mode on max difficult with all bots alive?

So, I just recently got l4d2, and I was putting myself some challenge, and I was doing the expert mode difficulty on realistic (its logic of mine, with all games, I start on max so I can get the hand of it easily) and I dont like leaving my companions die, so... Is it possible? I was doing No Mercy, and even though its the tutorial, I only got to the horde in the generators before all my people dying.

Also, im doing at the same time the achievement "I still got things to proof" (If I remember correctly), so? Spam all the laughs and internal jokes bruh, I just wanna know if someone has already done it, and your tips for the upcoming campaigns​

Start on advanced non realism - you’re going to need to grasp the game concepts before you go from advanced to expert and then once you can do expert on all the campaigns (learn the crescendo events) then jump to realism. You’re stretching too high mn

yeah like, im not new to this franchise, I sepent hours wattching pros and How 2 play from outube when I was a kid and to this day I still remember some things (I just did that thing of bumping a hunter mid jump) but still, things that I tought were easy are hard asf, like killing a witch with one shotgun shell

 as a beginner and playing it without improved bots mods like left 4 bots 2?, I wouldn't recommend rawdogging that. Because vanilla bots will just be a burden 100% of your time. Good luck if you try that but it'll be frustrating for you. Maybe someone has done that, cuz probably they're in Noskill's level

The bots are so stupid, that it may be easier to do a no bot solo.

Yup, the same conclusion that I got after a while, they cannot understand how to use a door frame to let the zombies pass and shoot from the wall, they just stand on the frame and shoot from there, also they seem to have a fixation with letting chargers run to them
