my old ass rig plays it very well. can you play half life 2 on your PC?
L4D PC is soooo good.
Man you guys seriously underestimate the power of good teamwork on the infected side.
Sore loser.
Yeah, I mean shit happened. But that guy, the Francis guy. Chican or something I dunno. After we lost, he said, and I quote exactly, "why the FUCK did we hole up in barn?"Mila said:

Thought it was German. :/ Only Dutch I know are Grolsch and Beatrix.
Had a rather mean director on a Death Toll expert campaign yesterday. I think it's the 2nd or 3rd level, the one with a watchtower at the start. After the watchtower, there's a decked area that you go up some stairs; I saw a Tank just hanging out in a lower room while the Tank music didn't play, and he killed us after I tossed a molly at him.
Next try, there is a Witch on the ground. No real problem, just walk past her. We go up the stairs past her, and right before I get to them, a horde is on it's way. No problem..but then about 2 seconds after the horde/swarm sound plays, a Tank comes out! So we have to scramble, which results in the Witch starting to get riled up. IOW, we had a horde+Tank+Witch at the same time. Either one person died or no one did though. :lol
Once I finally got it last week, Cr0wnd is super easy for me to get now on any difficulty level. I don't even run behind her; I walk directly to her front, then blast her right before she becomes startled (aim at normal height and wait for her head to reach that height, then blast away directly in her face).
Guhh. This is obviously not my day!
Finally made it to the Blood Harvest finale on expert. And by finally I mean for the fourth time. And by made it I mean we actually made it but after we tried I think three times (and only made it to the ACTUAL finale once), the server died.
Weeeee.
Hold me. ):

You want to get those achievements, therefore I assume you don't have them.
And yet you think they're as easy as tic-tac-toe? I've played easy, and none of those is easy on any level of difficulty as far as I know. Unless maybe you use the console kick commands to semi-cheat your way through no special infected damage.

As all Valve games are great when you want to create your own narrative through gameplay, I thought I might do a post on my blog where people from GAF share their best L4D story.
What do you guys think? If you're interested in this idea, please PM me on GAF. If you'd like, you're welcome to send me the story written in any style, and I'll be happy to edit and spellcheck it for you.
Please let me know if there is genuine interest in this idea.
I'll be sure to include some excellent stories of my own.

How are any of those affected by difficulty level? I know that the tank is a lot harder, but everything else comes down to damage. Unless every zombie has more health or something.
Also getting Safety First on easy is a joke, you can melee everything and not die. Health packs are everywhere, you get damaged in intervals of one health. Don't try to defend getting achievements on easy.
The boomer thing and untouchables are different. Playing on easy makes it easier to concentrate on those achievements since you don't have to worry about dying. However, I can see it still being difficult. Achievements are supposed to bring a sense of accomplishment. I did the cr0wned achievement by spawning a witch and it felt stupid, I was just tired of dying while playing with others, trying to kill her.

I don't know of one...you can turn down sound effects/game audio, I think, but that may turn down music as well. Voice chat is separately controlled.
The thing I STILL WANT THAT APPARENTLY VALVE MADE IMPOSSIBLE is to be able to mute a teammate. If someone's spamming voice chat or is really annoying, I'd rather be able to mute them instead of make drama by trying to get them kicked.

I'm planning to play around with these, maybe edit them so that the noise is way less. I actually wanted to do this for other shooter games too, the guns are too loud. However, there is something to be said about playing the game the way the developer intended. But we are playing on PC, where doing the opposite is what is part of why the PC is such a great platform.
Oh I don't know about sound effects, you can turn them down, but it will also turn down all applicable sound effects.

Yeah, I'm surprised they left that out. But I guess they think you'll just try to vote kick him?Blizzard said:

I count four of us (Mila is on my friends list). I'm ready to roll when the doctor is!
Oh, and a note about gun sounds. Gun sounds don't bug me to much, but I hate stuff like the really high-pitched hunter scream in earphones. Makes me feel like I'm losing more hearing. I didn't even consider possibly editing the sounds to make them quieter.

Just a reminder, that if any other people in the thread have any good campaign or versus stories they would like to have in the next blog post, please PM me with the story! Anything is okay: tragic, funny, irritating, happy, sad.
Any length is okay, but something around 300-500 words would be perfect. Shorter or longer are okay as long as it isn't a novel sized story. :lol

Just got this for the 360 from Amazon. The amount of enemies is awesome. Also why are there no health kits lying around the levels? I feel like a loser getting my computer allies to heal me all the time. :lol

Wow, I didn't realize that Death Toll is super super easy on the finale if you get up on the
.
Unfortunately, we found out that tanks CAN climb that, as we didn't go for the boat until after the third tank (fourth of the level) came down. >_>
Thanks to Proto for helping us finish an expert campaign. Apparently he plays too much versus and amazingly had never survived the death toll campaign or an expert campaign.
