Sorry about jumping the gun...duckroll said:
I primarily play co-op and can't wait to play a campaign on expert that doesn't take hours to complete.

I get the feelings it more because they want to raise awareness for L4D2. So a month or two before it lands get everyone back into L4D with this content.
On a side note, it would be good in L4D2 if they put an option in there that allowed you to pick and choose which sections from any of the campaigns you wanted to play in versus and how many.
So you could set a game up that only had 3 sections, but from 3 different campaigns.

Do you have like unlimited time to play Versus or something? If that's the case, I can see that. I generally play with a group of friends, and we get people together for Versus on weekends. Because of the different time zones and stuff, we usually don't have a ton of hours to play together, so getting more matches in instead of spending 2 hours on a long campaign is pretty welcome imo.
According to Eurogamer valve has tweaked special infected AI to be more aware of each other (so they'll presumably try to attack together) and as such campaigns should be a bit more challenging
Also Spitter seems to do sick damage if you don't get out fast

Tons of people still play Left 4 Dead on 360. I think just this week it was ranked 7th in the top 10 most played games for last week.

New DLC after Crash Course apparently: (lol boycotters)
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/L4D2boycott/announcements/detail/90227168244139754
"Now for some good news: There is more DLC for Left 4 Dead coming after CrashCourse. We were given a rough idea of what it should be, however we were asked not to talk too much about it so it didnt influence the creative process. I can tell you this: itll either be a new Special Infected, a new Campaign or new Weapon(s). Its definitely one of the three, perhaps more. This is pretty much the only thing that we were asked not to talk about (remember, *asked* we didnt sign anything). To that end, well continue to bug Chet about this after Crash Course drops.
"
Would be cool if true and Valve releases it before apocalypse.

Interview with Earl Alexander (voice of Louis). Not a good interview at all, but worth it if you like Louis' laugh.

Cold Case
Jesus christ
Dynamically Evolving Zombies
The infection is unstable and reactive. The zombies progressively become faster, tougher, and more aware of their surroundings through the campaign. Boss zombies also become more frequent.
Upgrades.
Expect to spend your time hunting for the upgrade tables. By doing so you can upgrade different things about yourself: accuracy, speed, and revival amounts you will need them to survive.
Storyline
Expect a rich and detailed storyline featuring numerous recordings by voice actors.
MASSIVE CONTENT!
* 36 maps in total!
* 6 full map campaign featuring hours of gameplay.
* 10 survival maps with dynamically changing atmospheres. Hold some points while wave's of infected tear it down, while others force you to run for your life to get to better positions.
* 2 separate 5 map versus campaigns. Cold Case: Covert Operations, and Cold Case: The Forsaken Each feature their own cooperative and versus maps!
(scheduled for Halloween 2009)

So...awesome. Wow.Volcynika said:
Does anyone regularly do more than 2 versus games in a row, and if so, how the hell do you do it?!
We just did 3 in a row and we just got worse and worse, so that by the end, duckroll and myself agreed to just jump down the elevator shaft in no mercy to help us out of our misery...

Wow, that's some crazy damage.
Anybody have any idea why I'm encountering this problem?
I have 2 friends on my list whom whenever they try to invite me into a L4D game it keeps saying cannot join session?
And for some reason if they ever start a game it says session not joinable, they are creating a friends only game for the original campaign levels. I have the GOTY edition if that makes any difference. They have the original version that came out last year
I just played L4D this afternoon with some other buddies and had no issues
Haven't had this problem with playing with these 2 friends in any other game.
