What's your gamertag, Szymon?

[Fox 6]

What's your gamertag, Szymon?

statsmo, or something like that. Hes not on terribly often tho.

[TheSlyMoogle]

I must say I think it's a vast improvement over the epic win that was l4d. Quite a bit more depth to the game now.

[Szymon]

What's your gamertag, Szymon?

Stasmo

Beat the first 3 campaigns. This version is considerably harder than the last. They just keep throwing specials at you in their recently extended variety. Haven't tried the multiplayer yet.

[Szymon]

I like it. The campaigns have various endings. More than just holding out against a few hordes and some tanks at the end of each round.

Yeah I do like that.

Sorry I would have played but I really had to practice these combos. I have a tournament coming up the first weekend in January.

[TheSlyMoogle]

Ok so who has L4D2 after christmas now?

Anybody planning on getting it that didn't?

Needs moar L4D2 versus.

[Fox 6]

Im finding it hard to actually complete a round of versus. I must have played about 20+ games of vs, and i have yet to complete one of them. Every time you are winning, the other team quits. This makes it practically impossible to complete achievements, and awards.

[Vampyr]

My girlfriend bought this a few days ago. I'm actually enjoying it a lot more than the first one now.

I have to say, though, this is one of the hardest games out there this generation.

[Dylflon]

Too many bitches drop out of vs matches.

Bunch of babies.

[Typhoid]

I've never had a problem with people dropping in versus whenever I've played.
I notice when I play a quickmatch, people drop out like it's going out of style, but if I search for a lobby/make a lobby, for the most part nobody really drops.

[Fox 6]

We pretty much only join lobbys or start lobbys. People dont like it when you stomp the snot out fo them.

[BreakABone]

Seems like the next update (out now on Steam, soon on the Xbox) will address two major issues with L4D.

-First, no more instant spawning during the finale so you don't have to worry about getting your boomer half way across the stage and being shot from a distance.

-Second, adding AI infected if your team has less than 4 humans.

[Fox 6]

Woooo!

had a great time playing tonight!

was me, combine, moogle, and swanny. a great team, work together so well and it's fun. We are hard pressed to be beaten easily. GT gaming at its best! havent played L4D2 in awhile, took a bit to get the rust off.

Finally got another team to stick around for the whole game (mostly)

Woo only 6 more wins for the bull shifter shirt!

Well as some of you know The Passing DLC released a few weeks back, and as part of the package came mutations which are like modified game modes. So far we've seen Realism Versus and this one is a survival mode of sorts where your health is always going down, and no way to refill it out than pills/adrenaline.

Someone found a leak of all the mutations, and some of them sound really boss

Chainsaws (coop) - Everyone starts with a Chainsaw (unlimited fuel) and a pistol (unlimited ammo), there aren't any other kinds of weapons spawning, so it's just what you have at the beginning.
Four Swordsmen (coop) - Kinda like Chainsaws, except you start with katanas and no pistols, and there are only S.I., no Commons.
Hardcore (coop) -If everyone dies, you have to restart the campaign, so no restarting maps, you have to restart the whole thing!
Headshot Only (coop) - Self descriptive, commons only die with headshots.
Last Man On Earth (singleplayer) - It's you... against the S.I. (extremely scary)
M60s (coop) - Survivors start with only M60s (limited ammo) and a Desert Eagle, once you run out of ammo, you're screwed.
Max Specials (survival) - It's survival, with 8 S.I. at any given time!
Bleed Out/Temp Health (coop) - Everyone starts with 100 decaying health (pills-like), there are no medkits, only pills and adrenaline.
Protect the VIP aka Gnome (coop, versus) -There is a gnome next to you at the beginning, carry it through the campaign, person carrying the gnome can't use weapons and the gnome attracts infected!
Realism Versus (versus) - You already know what this is, versus with realism modifications.
Linear Scavenge (scavenge) - 2 Cans spawn, get those 2 in and 2 more spawn, proceed...
No Health Versus (versus) - No medkits, no pills, no adrenaline.
Versus Survival (survival) - Self Descriptive, it's a lot of fun.
Madness (coop) - There are TONS of common infected, they are VERY angry and there are no S.I., you have enough trouble as it is.
Versus Coop (versus) - It's coop, with a twist, you play as the infected as the bots try to make it through the campaign alive.
Realism Scavenge (scavenge) - Self descriptive, scavenge with all the realism twists.

Those ones sound the most fun.

[uber_paddler]

Sounds fun. I really have to get back into L4D2.

[Angrist]

That plush is hideous but not hideous enough to be cool.

Lies that boomer plush is cute as fuck and I would buy it if I felt it worth 50 bucks

So Valve has announced new DLC for L4D/L4D 2 on GameTrailers TV

Essentially, this DLC will tell the story leading up to the last DLC The Passing, and is entitled the Sacrifice. It will be the same DLC on L4D/L4D 2, but with slight variation due to the games.

Along with the Sacrifice, L4D 2 shall be getting NO Mercy as part of the DLC.

There is also a 150 page digital comic that will be released in 4 parts that chronicles the life of the 4 survivors before the start of L4D
