Did Valve shrink the range of the Tank's arms or something? Or it that how it's always been in L4D2, and I just haven't been a Tank enough times to notice before now?

Because Tank on Port is nigh useless if you can't line up a car throw.

I thought they gave him an even greater range. I've been on a rampage as of late. :D

Had an opposing infected team wedge a dumpster into the safe room door at the end of Dead Center 2. You'd think they'd fix that shit before they'd make geometry changes to the levels... even L4D1 still has path blocking exploits.

How'd they wedge the dumpster in the door, with a tank?

So that's what happened!

I remembered that it was pretty late so I was checking my phone to see what time it was (is everyone else in the house asleep) so I knew how loud I could be. Then I looked back at my screen and I was somewhere else and my friends were asking me how I got there:lol

The passing finale on realism vs is so freaking hard. Even with 4 mics it was still really confusing to coordinate. Add the fact you don't have the old survivors helping, it makes for a very short finale.

Good times though!

Ah, haha. I love moments like that. Pop had a good one on our first play. RD got smoked to a drop point (I think it was that board you run across between 2 buildings) and Pop ran and jumped off after him.

The worst part about that was, I knew it was going to happen, but couldn't go any faster because running through a teammate on a narrow bridge just results in someone falling anyways... =(

Played the first L4D today, solo single player since no one expressed any interest in joining. I didn't realize these things hauled ass like 28 Days Later zombies, sheesh. Started off *pow pow pow* blowin' fools up as they shambled in the distance and then RAAAAAA, a wave came as if someone lit their asses on fire. I thought it was hilarious, cool game so far though :)

I honestly can't imagine Left 4 Dead with shambler zombies.

Play with friends, or heck, even pubs on lower difficulties. The human interaction is what takes it from fun to amazing.

Ah, I don't have any Steam friends and pretty much only one actual friend in MD (I'm in FL) and he doesn't have a 'net connection :/ So, not really an option...

What the hell is with Coach and that window? I had two different teammates as Coach and they both fell out from there. WTF.

I added you, Blackheim. Now you can feel my wrath.

Well obviously there is a candy bar on the ground right there that only Coach can see. Or a cheeseburger.

You stole the M60 I had been holding most of the 1st map! I was really tempted to just kill you then we'd do that over and over and that would have been funny now that I think about it.

I swapped it out to use a different gun on the horde, you grabbed it and wouldn't give it back. I healed you too! I thought we were pals. :(

Just got in on the Steam sale thanks to LQX. I'm not at home to try it on my main rig, but it definitely seems like performance is a lot worse than the first game. Any framerate improving tips for a dual core setup? Would reducing the gore level help? I've already got most graphics options set at medium or low and it still drops to around 30 fps at times.

I know quad cores tend to fare much better at this game. Might be looking at an upgrade soon. Look forward to playing with the rest of GAF tho.

Just played L4D2 for the first time in a while, and finished The Passing campaign. Good maps, but a little underwhelming.

Can't wait to play some GAF games again :D
