Yeah. But going behind the train car made me a sitting duck since they were on the offensive, and I couldn't get to the ladder. I'll try and keep a cooler head next time. XD

Can you make a demo of that some time? I always hear that, and I can look directly at them and lose the meter.

It's odd. I've seen it done on Dead Air 5 where the tank can get behind the metal wall of an airport gate but watch the survivors way down below in the distance. But sometimes you can see the survivors through trees or around a train car and it still seems to sometimes go down.

Who isn't jumping on the L4D2 bandwagon quite right away? I've promised myself I wouldn't buy it for a few more months, since I still believe I haven't played this as much I would have liked. It may also be hard for me to find nice people to play with. Anyone interested in some games at night for the rest of this year?

I enjoyed both games. Blizz and I made the second game a relaxed game for our team. Except for the part where Blizz picked Anchovie as our target to harass and take out. And to think that Blizz was calling us mean :lol

Dead Air was good tonight, but it's still my least favorite campaign.

We need to schedule a L4D2 game.
I played the demo on my own with some randos and really didn't enjoy it.

It's just "different."
It was really unnerving.. I mean, could I really not like the sequel to L4D?

PC, btw.

That happened after you three jerks played with danger and tried to leapfrog the Tanks or stop to have a chat or some shit. I was taken out by a small and agile jumping zombie out from the trees, whereas you people fell to a Goliathesque zombie set on fire and howling like a newborn.

PROTOLF FOREVER

Show us some pro Twig videos, quit hiding them!

He would have exploded in seconds and pushed you off anyway. Even if he didn't explode, you were still within range of that smoker and would have been pulled no matter what (you were boomed before falling off, so you wouldn't have seen it). QED.

Scatman stuff. Um, Capndrake had the link to it! Somewhere! I don't have the link, sorry. D:

P.S. one last video...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ3C9Wv934k

I totally did not die and yet it says I did. I don't know how many times I've finished DT on expert now... AND IT NEVER STICKS. STUPID CHEESEMINT.

I believe it's because we didn't let Botolf die.

Also notsol337 fell through the boat, lol.

Sorry I left the game prematurely last night. I just realized that Sunday after 4:00PM EST is never a good time for me to start playing a game. Wish I could apologize to you personally vertopci, but it appears that you have deleted me from your friends list.

So... Left 4 Dead is left for dead by Valve now or what? Or do they count on an active scene to keep generating content for it? *shrugs*

L4D2 demo was pretty ok.

Gabe Newell has said numerous times in recent interviews that they are still going to be supporting the original game. Nothing specific though.

Holy crap there's an RE2 police station campaign, I didn't know any of those were out. There are also going to be full RE1, RE2, and RE3 scenarios out eventually :D

The RE1 scenario looks especially amazing!

I think this was posted several thousand pages back, actually!

So apparently the update made connecting to servers a bit difficult...so morningbus, nabs, pillow and I were forced to play vanilla l4d.

Dear god...such a fucking piece of shit. No guaranteed tanks every level, kits like mad. What a piece of fucking shit. So easy to fucking make it to the saferoom with over 185 HP bonus while not even fucking trying. Not to mention skeets easy as fucking pie.

What a piece of shit

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
This update is shit and it makes me feel like a piece of shit.

Vanilla L4D is pretty disappointing, too. I'm not as 100% anti-kit as vert, but god damn does there need to be a tank every level. 2 every level if there are kits, even.

yeah the default setup is horrible. we were able to just dick around until the end, and still end with like a 190 health bonus.

and team matchmaking sucks. i was hoping for a way to combine lobbies, or jump into a lobby w/ 2 or 3 friends.
