I'd like to chime in here and second this. I love versus mode but by far I've had the most fun in versus playing on servers running on Hard difficulty or better.
I find normal is just way to easy and too forgiving on the survivors. If anything I think in an ideal world I would be able to CHOOSE the difficulty for versus when creating the lobby. Why Valve feels versus should only be played with wimpy normal difficulty zombies I have no idea. Let the players play it at the difficulty they want, don't lock my server down so I can't play how I please. This is by far the worst game that I've ever operated a server for. I feel like Valve is expecting people to run these as basically a public service to them. If you want this level of control valve you should pay to run your own servers. And at this rate you may have to.
