ramsy66 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Just finished with the XBL demo. Very fun stuff. It isn't deep enough to make it a buy for me. Would definitely be alot of fun with lots of friends.

ramsy66 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 can you play coop with friends? Yeah. Pretty sure. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/685714-official-left-4-dead/page/9/#findComment-590111054 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacey Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Yeah, that was the big selling point I thought. Co-op campaign with 4 friends, or you can play 4 vs 4 in Versus mode. The only thing similar about this game and the Zombie panic mod, is there is guns and zombies. This game is much faster and very dependent on team work and quite dynamic in terms of replayability of levels because the item/zombie placement is randomized each time you play. It really affects your pass through the level, because depending on your guns and where the bosses are, you may take different routes.

Massiveterra Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Nah, I meant for the demo.

Most excellent :) , not quite the same as playing with your mates but it's better than not playing with anyone.

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted November 12, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 12, 2008 Nah, I meant for the demo. It wasn't confirmed whether or not the demo co-op had full online play since the demo MP version isn't coming out till the time of the retail release Other way around actually, the demo is multi-player until the full version comes out, then it goes into single-player mode only. Edit: The full version should have a "rep" system, set off car alarms, team kill, etc. and your rep goes down, help people up, protect them, etc. and it goes up.

spy beef Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 There's not enough depth in the gameplay. This is like falling back to 2001 with Serious Sam the First Encounter's coop. All you can do is run and shoot or throw grenades. Not much else except for healing, and picking up teammates. You know what? I think serious sam was better even though it's 7 years old!
