Good campaign, I liked the conversations between the survivors. We had to replay the finale a few times, it was a bit tricky. But at least we got to hear a new conversation each time. Ellis really likes that car :lol

Probably my fav campaign of the L4D2 lot. Should be fantastic in VS, I saw a lot of great attacks points. Seeing the dead persons corpse pretty much confirms that the L4D1 campaign will have the finale in that area. Which means that that campaign will reuse assets from this one and should be out soon. And while I am extrapolating, it could also mean that they are bringing all L4D1 content to L4D2 because of the shared assets!!!!!
Also, they finally brought back amusing graffiti and they fucking delivered.

So is this game worth getting for $21 if you realize that vert is correct and L4D1 is way better, and if you think survivors are way overpowered and like playing zombies instead?
I could pay $15, but I'm no cheapskate, man.

I am also too lazy to put money in paypal and I don't know how long the transfer takes
You know you love the attention.

In that same room with the Frank West message, there's a 28 Days Later reference. It reads "The End Is Really Fucking Nigh" and some people comment on how unnecessary that curse is. :lol

Well, that DLC content was underwhelming to say the least.

I thought so, too, because I went into it thinking they'd be fighting along side us throughout the mission. But the Versus and weekly Mutations make it worthwhile. Also, being called vampires by Francis alone was worth the price of admission.

That was kind of disappointingly short, though there is some great level design and nice touches.
The L4D1 character interactions make it worth it.
Tried out realism versus and my team completely owned the opposing team causing them all to ragequit and the server to shutdown. :/ I foresee many ragequits to come in that mode. Really need a lot of good teamwork.
i liked the witch in the wedding dress. heh.
Poor Bill.

I missed the dead survivor, not in a rush to play back through it all again tonight.
I was amused by them practically beating it over your head that no,
. It's like you could hear the developers yelling it to the player. :lol
Graffiti was funny as hell. Some of the new regular zombie outfits fit the bars and such well. I liked some aspects of the finale, but

Oh, did anyone else have an issue with the intro video playing? I know a lot of people probably have it turned off by now, but it was just a black screen with audio for me until I skipped it.

you weren't going to team up with them properly

carrying back 10 gas cans, one at a time by yourself because the bots are apparently too inept to do even that really dragged things out. And yes, I did want to play it through on single player so I could take my time and try to hear the dialogue, most of which was interrupted prematurely

Man, it's great VS map material. 360 servers are bustling with achievement whores doing Scavenge on Port nonstop :lol

He should just wait for L4D3, since it's coming out this November.

I'm really surprised this is even a serious discussion. I paid three times as much as you can currently pay for it and I am not in the least bit dissatisfied. For a man who loves TF2 so much, you must not have that much faith in Valve (or they have spoiled you, either one).
I really enjoyed this campaign, it's a solid addition to the game's lineup.
Spoilery impressions follow.
Spoilery impressions follow.
- I love the golf club, it's impact sound is perfect :3
- The caches are a neat gameplay addition. Already thinking of some applications for my own map.
- Fallen survivors = cool. Tough little bastards and they like to run too.
- Rain and rain storms have returned! Wooo!
- The witch as a bride was a nice touch. Lawl at the stereo event.
- Lol'd multiple times at the bathroom and saferoom scribbles. Great stuff from some great writers.
- I really liked what they did with the streets and buildings, has a lot more "character" than similar spaces in Dead Center.
- For some reason, I end up liking sewer sections in the L4D games. This one was no different, especially had fun running through the cramped catacomb-style tunnel with zombies churning water ahead of us. Cool stuff.
- The L4D1 survivors throwing items to you during the finale was a nice little feature.
- Nooooo Bill D:
- All kinds of questions about how Bill's end is going to play out in the L4D1 campaign. Will it finish in the same area?
- Setting up the finale in an area adjacent to the one you started in was a nice use of space, also allowed for a cool little mini-run moment at the end there.

I have had some troubles connecting tonight. Im guessing the whole network is bogged down. Couldnt connect to any servers so had to host locally, about half way through the game my mate dropped and couldnt connect again (Steam said i wasnt in a game). Trying to join peoples lobbies wouldnt work either, and hosting my own nobody joined. Im guessing its just overloaded or something.

It's probably due to how Steam patches games. The current implementation is that Steam will update the whole file, instead of parts of the file.

Valve doesn't really do cutscenes. They make trailers, but they don't put cutscenes in their games.

I know, just thought i heard there was to be some kind of video with a meetup between the 2 groups, like before the mission loads up or viewable elsewhere. Doesn't matter either way as it still "fits"
