"Crash Course delivers new single-player, multiplayer and co-operative gameplay and bridges the storyline between the No Mercy and Death Toll campaigns in the original game. To celebrate, we are offering Left 4 Dead at 50% off for 3 days. Or share the fun - get the Left 4 Dead Four Pack and give the game to your friends.

While containing both Survival maps and a Co-operative Campaign, the primary goal of Crash Course is to deliver a complete Versus mode experience in just 30 minutes, resulting in a streamlined version of the game's existing Versus campaigns.

Noice. Can't wait to be home and download it (servers should be updated by that time too! :p )

Updates to Left 4 Dead have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

A new campaign, "Crash Course", is now available for play in Campaign, Versus and Survival modes

In Versus mode, all weapons, pills, health packs, molotovs, pipe bombs and other items will now be identical for the second round of a chapter

Matchmaking has had several improvements to make finding and joining games even faster

Ten all new "Crash Course" achievements have been added

Weird that the new infected UI isn't listed... hmm..

Some people might not like this, but I'm gonna say FINALLY, that's a good idea. I would prefer the losing-team-goes-first method over the CEVO first-swapping method, but I guess I'll get the one I want unless I play on CEVO servers.

I'll play a game or two tonight, but it'll be at like 9-10 EST.

Only took 45 minutes on my end, lolz. But I guess that's preferable to getting caught in the rush that is no doubt kicking up right now.

Thanks to Crash Course's shortness (I beat it in 31 minutes with all AI teammates), I managed to get Stomach Upset and Do Not Disturb without too much hassle. Although there were some close calls! :D

Woop, it's up on the 360 marketplace, so Crash Course will be ready to d/l when I get home from work (in 8 hours). Any other 360 users going to be playing this tonight? I need to find some good games to enjoy the new campaign.

If I bought Crash Course when it was briefly 800 points will Microsoft automatically re-add the $3 back to my account or do I need to contact them?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Finally got it updated and played a few incredibly laggy rounds of the new campaign.

It feels a lot like Death Abroad, actually. Really open, convoluted levels with tons of gas cans, propane tanks, and weapon drops. It is actually pretty fun playing right now because no one can really figure out where to go. However, I can imagine the levels zipping by in an instant once people learn the routes through.

New infected HUD is great, too. It automatically gives your team information you'd otherwise have to tell them.

I also wouldn't be surprised to be told that regular infected damage has been turned up slightly.
