Left 4 Dead 2 is free on Steam, and broke everything

So if I don't install it, it goes away. Disappointing since I'm going to be away from my PC. Nice thought otherwise.
 
They just took a dump on those of us who paid for it.

No praise from me. Sorry.

Not really, Time is money! You paid to have it well before it was free. Same can be said about missing discounts. You paid a higher price because you wanted it sooner.
 
Awesome. The competitive mode in this game I feel is very underrated. So much fun stalking survivors and when your team combos it's attacks it's very satisfying.
 
Woah, I've never played this.

THANK YOU SANTA GABE!!

Now, I need some friends from GAF to play with. Please? Though I don't have a mic for my PC, sorry!
 
The Valve press thing says "To claim your L4D2 gift, all you need to do is install it.

If you don’t install, it goes back to its regular price and you miss out!"

It also says "Install" when you just add it to your library. Could it be that this was meant to be said?
 
Hm... Don't think I have a headset though :\

I got the game day 1, so I paid more than most people who own the game most likely. I don't regret a single cent.

Might as well say them putting games on sale years after they've been out SHITS ON ALL THE DAY 1 BUYERS. The game has been available for 2 dollars at times for Christ's sake. Seems obvious to me that they think they've gotten just about every purchase out of the game, so they're giving people another chance to try it, probably to hype up L4D3.
 
Steam is getting uberhammered, I can't download shit. When I press "Install Game" it redirects me to the front page.

EDIT: Just went to the game page again to get a "Play Game" button which worked after a few tries.
 
I paid $49.99 USD when this came out years ago. I demand my money back!

I preordered, got every penny of my money's worth (and then some), and I love the fact that it's free now.

It's a multiplayer game after all. While there is still a big community, the more the merrier!
 
For those who want to experience the best and most chaotic experience this game can deliver, open console and type in "openserverbrowser". Then under the custom tab, look for any server that allows up to 20 players.

Enjoy!
 
Anyone else having problems connecting, Im guessing they are overloaded with requests. Also does it add to your account or is it just an install?
 
Perfect time to get back into it. Massacring Christmas noobs is gonna be so satisfying.
