Pretty short when you consider we haven't gotten a single Orange Box update yet. :(

What happened to you tonight?

You said you were almost home, then nothing..........

I got the All 4 dead achievement last night. used the car in the alley on the very first level of No Mercy to kill 3 of them, and just hit the 4th to death :P

My brother took out my whole team with a car like that once. Was incredibly irritating.

Details on the DLC for the game.

Seems like we get modified Death Toll/Dead Air for Versus, which we knew.

Survival sounds intriguing.
And a new level for Survival called Lighthouse.

Sounds pretty exciting!

PC gaming does it again. And just after we got the most recent patch :lol:

Versus Mode Changes

Tank melee attack can now hit multiple Survivors in one swing

Fixed Tank punch being able to hit targets behind walls

Fixes to 'Tank parking'. The Tank will now run back and attack the Survivors if he becomes AI due to two players expiring the frustration meter

Fixed a case where a Tank frustration meter could run out right as he was in his death animation and he would come back to life

Fixed a case where the Tank was moving too slowly while crouching and being shot

Tanks now have the possibility of spawning in a slightly different position for the first and second teams

The order that the teams play as Survivors is now determined by which team has the higher overall score. The winning team will play as Survivors first

The Smoker tongue can now target and grab victims through common infected

Increased the cone in which a Smoker can grab a target

The Witch no longer cuts Smoker tongues in a radius around her

Boomers that explode in mid-air will now hit Survivors directly below them with Bile

Reduced the damage that burning Hunters do to pounced victims

Adjusted the time at which players take over from bots to avoid 5 seconds of the bot standing idle while the player finishes connecting.

Fixed some cases where versus score was not being recalculated properly. It is no longer beneficial to pass pills between players at the end of the round or heal other players and then shoot them

Fixed a case where it was possible to spectate an AI infected and hit +use to take them over

Server Changes

Added convar sv_gametype that allows server operators to limit the types of games that will start on their server. Default value is 'coop,versus'. Can be changed to just 'coop' or just 'versus' to limit to those game types

General changes

Fixed a case where players would join as a dead Survivor when a living Survivor was still available

Fixed a case where restarting a level due to the team dying would give more than the max primary ammo on restart

Fixed the speaking icon showing up on the local player during level transition if voice_vox was set to 1

The scoreboard now shows the numeric value of a player's ping

GameUI

Quick match will now try to match to any campaign. Removed the preference to match to games according to the player progressing through all campaigns

Games in a finale are now joinable via the Friends and Steam Group games list

Looks like April 21st is when the new fun begins.

YAAAAAAAAAY!

(wish it was sooner)

I forsee many hours spent at Dylans.

Well, many more - anyways.

Oh wait! That release date is perfect.

It comes out the day my last school project is due!

Which means that it won't distract me but rather comes as a delicious reward for all my hard work.

Fun all around.

http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/69...C-Preview.html

Like 20 minutes of footage.
Survival looks intense. Within two minutes, there seems to be 2 tanks, and according to preview within 4 minutes you have already toppled 4 and it gets faster as you go.

Sweet the new pack is up.
And pretty tiny. ONly 101 MB

Edit~
Just hopped on and there is a ranking for time and some people have already passed 30 minutes on some maps. Haha.

So just made 5 minutes in the drains.
4 tanks in that time. Haha

And they block off some glitches. Haha

I can't wait to play this tomorrow.

Three Dog, the only time you've ever heard me talk we were both drunk.
Probably not the best judge of speaking ability, nor listening ability.

The first step to stopping the problem is admitting that you have one.

Not true my friend.
The first night I met you, I was sober at least. You were at the bar for a while so who knows.
Also during sushi/bubble tea/L4D I assume you were sober... I hope.

Well that's just idiotic.
Aboot isn't even a word, Earl.
I don't know whether to mock americans, or blacks.
I don't know who you're hurting more.:p
