Pffft, maybe your tank sucks, but my tank is awesome

Volk you should grab your friends and scrim against us, to put your idea to the test. We're always looking for guys around our level to practice against, and now we even have a server!

I second this!

Nah, I don't play on servers with silly settings!

Also I'm having to play online gaming a bit less this week, this area's being hit with lots of heavy storms :/

We use the normal scrimmage settings for scrims. Not the no kits at all one.

CEVO settings are very fair and fun, and not in the sadistic i'm running around with 1 HP b/w kind of fun. We're up for a match anytime though, gives us a break from getting destroyed by god teams.

I don't!

Which just means Volcano Man will now because he likes being contrary with me.

What are you playing scrims for? Did you guys enter a team in the Newegg tournament?

Yes. We entered in the last one and the Alienware one as well. I'd like to participate in the next CEVO L4D season, but I don't think my team wants to :lol

That's why I said almost everyone. I think you're the only one so far who hasn't liked it afaik.

Holy crap, the Vienna Calling campaign is... horrible.
Really badly made stuff-stairs, stuff you can fall into and never get back out of, locked survivor closets, one guy that spawns off the map...
Stay away at all costs, when they said "valve-worthy campaign" on the download page, they lied.

I hate Turvy. Instead of buying Demon's Souls, the BEST RPG THIS GENERATION, like I recommended him to, he recommends this SHIT map instead. GOOD GOD MAN, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?

I played the Austria campaign with Scarlet and some others and it was pretty fun. Visually some parts looked rather rough, but nothing that bad. Other than some glitches I didn't think it was that bad.

If you fall into that non-damaging water in the sewer (happens every time so far with a new player) or if someone doesn't spawn in the same area (only happened the last time, out of 3 plays), all you do is 'take a break' and the AI warps to the other characters. Old knowledge.

You guys (duck and co) don't like any custom maps.

I fucking loved Vienna Calling. Despite all the bugs, I liked it better than Crash Course. The finale just felt lazy imo

It's about as long as any first runthrough. Heaven Can Wait is longer probably.

Prolly. We only got wiped once when I did play it but now can do it shorter since we know where to go. Fun stuffs though.

Vienna is the only custom campaign that I've played and I thought it was pretty good. Not sure how I'd like it on multiple play throughs, but I enjoyed it the first time. Lot better than I thought custom campaigns would be.

Going through your link it gives me some kind of error, saying unknown's friend list is full. Tried doing it through the Steam client itself and I think it worked, but I'm not sure.

Edit:

Nope, definitely didn't. If you make room add Nintendohero to your list. Should be on for a while.

Anyone else want in on a GAF game?

What time are you planning on starting? Roomates using my tv to play Uncharted 2 :[

On another note, I tried out versus for the first time today and man I wasn't expecting what i got. It's quite hard, the amount of co - ordination / strategy needed is insane. I kept alternating between smoker / hunter and tried to catch the survivors alone but man it was like they were always one step ahead of me.

Whenever we get enough people for campaign or versus! I'm playing on Steam right now and I should be on for a while.

First tragedy, then farce.
So GAF,

I have a business trip next week.. which pretty much means that Left 4 dead will be my gaming choice.

Do any of y'all still play? My Steam name is stooge_zoot.

Also, what custom campaigns do y'all use (if any) so I can get them downloaded. I've been playing Dead Aboard lately and it is pretty well made, but seems much easier and less hectic than the stock campaigns.

Woops, guess it can get full. I removed 100+ days ago people and added you.

I would like to play. If that is okay, I don't want to take anyone's spot though, I have only been playing for a couple of days and I suck. My steam name is KillerSaint.

HOLY FUCK :D

You better be there! Haven't played with you in a long ass time.

Also Volc, you should come try out the config JUST ONCE. And realize how awesome it is.
Yeah, sorry... my project was stuck in crunch for a couple of months but we just finished and I'm back! Looking forward to those server settings too!

Sorry for sucking so bad. I'll try again some other time, if that's okay. Hopefully I'll be better by then, whenever that is. Sorry again for taking the spot for so long, I hope nobody was waiting.

It may give me 300 ping, but that's a REAL server to play on! Great game!

For L4D2, I might pick a chicago or st.louis server instead of new york so the ones in Japan and on the west coast get a tad better ping.
