Goethe and ernie - 2009-06-06

Yes yes yes yes, so pumped for this, massive "ffffffffffuck off" to everyone crying that it's coming out too soon/should be free/should be DLC, etc. etc.


KnowFuture - 2009-06-06

"should be free" as in, "a copy should be given to all askers for no cost", or "should be free" as in L4D2 will be subscription?

Don't get me wrong, I loves me some L4D, but I'm not paying more than once for a video game where you hit people with a skillet.


Goethe and ernie - 2009-06-06

No I mean people are offended by the fact that it's largely the same game as the first one, and coming out only a year later, therefore they're saying it should be a free add-on... I don't think anyone's talking about subscriptions, although, that wouldn't bother me either as, unlike most internet crybabies, I have a job.


Eurhetemec - 2009-06-06

The amount of ridiculous nerd-pouting and whining this has generated would be enough to 5-star it even if it wasn't also pretty damn exciting.


Camonk - 2009-06-06

Five stars for the nerd rage and for vindicating my decision not to get L4D yet. Now I'll just wait 'til November and get the sequel.


FABIO - 2009-06-06

L4D was an absolute blast the first 2 or 3 maps you played with friends. Then....

I think it's more that the initial game felt a bit pricey for what it was, wasn't released in a working state, took months to be tweaked in areas that should have been caught in play testing, and even now still has exploits that sap the fun.

No sane person thinks it should be free, but this looks expansion pack at what might be full price. That's kind of hard to swallow twice.


Aoi - 2009-06-06

I'm more or less guaranteed to buy it, but Valve would make me so very happy if they'd also provide some of those engine updates to L4D1, or included the campaigns/characters from the original, updated, in 2, or whatever else. Hell, I'd buy a 'North' expansion for 2 that did these things.


mcsancherson - 2009-06-06

is this literally the exact same engine with more HDR & bloom? cause uhhhh


Mister Yuck - 2009-11-05

Yeah, it's Source. The same damn engine every Valve game has been made in since Half Life 2.

running zombies

+1 star for the weapons not sucking so bad (it looks like)


Goethe and ernie - 2009-06-06

Wah, wah, wah, someone's portraying fictional monsters in a manner I consider unseemly! Are you 15 or something? You know who complains about running zombies? George Romero. No, not the guy who made the Dead trilogy, but the grumpy old dickhead who made Land of the Dead and Diary of the Dead. Did you see Diary of the Dead? You're effectively arguing in favour of that. Well done for being a purist ABOUT ZOMBIES AND ZOMBIE MOVIES. It's a worthy cause.


Camonk - 2009-06-06

Yes, exactly, thank you. There are whole jeremiads about running zombies and how they violate either the realism of zombies or somehow the existential meaning of zombies or whatever.

People who make these arguments are retards.


baleen - 2009-06-06


Two stars not for running zombies but for waking up this morning and feeling old. This brought me no pleasure.


Iron Xides - 2009-06-06

I can make a HL2 video where I kill large numbers of slow zombies with a crowbar, at no serious risk to my person.

Five stars for fast zombies (and fast gameplay).


Sputum - 2009-06-06

I gotta say, this looks like an expansion pack. I honestly kind of like killing floor better than l4d anyway. Once you play through all of the maps left 4 dead gets old.


Meerkat - 2009-06-06

One thing I have to complain about, just about first person shooters in general: if I am not wandering about in a helmet that puts glass in front of my eyes, don't put blood spatters and lens flares on my eyeballs. Or at least have me blink to make the obstructive debris go away.

Maybe bind the B key to blink so I can clean my eyeballs if I want to.


Pillager - 2009-06-06

Looks all right.


Daymage - 2009-06-06

So much standing in one place and shooting into a horde. I love zombies (running or otherwise), but this game really didn't do it for me.


Robin Kestrel - 2009-06-06

Physics looks wonky with the frying pan on the roof near the end... zombies flying away when hit like they were helium-filled ping-pong balls.

I'll be buying this, but not when it's .


halon - 2009-06-06

The more videos of this I see, the more it looks like Serious Sam and not l4d. Maybe they'll pull off the daytime thing, but I'll be demoing this before I buy it.

+1 for frying pan, though.


Stog - 2009-06-06

Horde music with fiddles!

GOB Bluth!

Daylight levels!

I am pumped for this.


Stog - 2009-06-06

Also: Someone needs to get on a GOB Bluth sound pack for this shit.


Caminante Nocturno - 2009-06-06

Yeah, right! The guy with the ,000 suit is going to pull a hunter off of a guy who doesn't make that much in three months! COME ON!


La Loco - 2009-06-06

Great idea guys, make a game where all the enemies are sprinting zombies made out of styrofoam that can be killed four at a time with a frying pan. Now we don't have to worry about AI now do we?


Stog - 2009-06-06

You can has styrofoam!


La Loco - 2009-06-06

Yes!


Cap'n Profan!ty - 2009-06-06

lots of people in this thread are gonna get raped. i mean banned.


OxygenThief - 2009-06-06

CHET CABAL


Honest Abe - 2009-06-06

ZAAAAAAAAAMMMBIIIIIIIIIIIESS


fatatty - 2009-06-06

L4D is a game that really isn't very fun to watch. All the fun comes from being alone in that world with 4 other people and all the chaos and infighting that arises.

The game is much more than just shoot at zombie horde. It's also protect my mates, communicate hazards, find places to hole up and try not to get too pissed off when your teammate accidentally shoots you in the back and drops a molly on you.

So for me, more of the same is welcome if it means new maps, weapons, enemies and modes. I will shell out another bucks, especially knowing that user content will also be coming along so that 50 bucks will go quite a ways.


Suedeo - 2009-06-07

I am prone to agree with everything you said, Fatatty, except for the part where you called a "Molotov Cocktail" a "Molly". I just can't stand that for some reason.


mantang0 - 2009-06-06

never played the first one. judging by this new, improved sequel i think i made the correct choice.


NineEleven - 2009-06-06

They're gonna have a L4D2 Christmas sale on Steam, you just KNOW it. If you don't wanna spend 50 bucks, just wait a few weeks and you can pretend like you outsmarted the system. That's my plan, anyway.


memedumpster - 2009-06-06

"Zombie Hunter needs food."

"Zombie Hunter needs food."

"Zombie Hunter needs food."


HankFinch - 2009-06-06

Zombie Hunter shot food


FABIO - 2009-06-07

Oh man, they already have Hitler Downfall videos on this.


Derouin - 2009-06-29

I've been out of touch with PC games for a few years. Since when did they release Serious Sam 3? Or is this SS4?
