[Official] Left 4 Dead


Recommended Posts

The only thing I can think is everyone is buying left 4 dead and downloading so their servers are getting hammered....

But my speeds were fine on the demo when it was first released...wierd.

Steam has servers spread out all over the world, 99% of them aren't run by Valve.

All my local servers are ISP run, some of them have great speed (6Mbps) others not so much (Couple hundred Kbps)

i like how you can play any movie you want from the start, each one is independent anyway. i hate unlocking stuff.

i haven't really played much versus mode, only once in no mercy but i heard its only for no mercy and blood harvest? i hope they add the ability to play death toll and dead air in versus as well...

just had the oddest bug happen during a versus match. I hit the windows key, and the game minimized. Loaded it back it, and while i was human, I was still getting infected vision. Not only that, I could see the infected choosing their spawn points before they spawned. It was crazy, heres some screens. Reporting it to valve as well. Hope this isnt exploited.

I haven't bought it yet, but just launch steam, then find Left 4 Dead Demo file location then play..

LOL you're right! Thanks for the tip. :)

So much for Valve turning off a 'launch game' option within the Steam UI :rolleyes:

Game came today (ordered from Amazon ?19.97 and the free P&P, so not bad). Wow. Tried single player on Expert, as on the demo I managed to finish the levels on that without too much trouble/just making it to the safe house. Got stuck on the second level of No Mercy for three attempts, so I started again on Normal. Sure the demo was easier, haha.:pp

Finished No Mercy, Death Toll and Dead Air. Might try and do Blood Harvest now. Bit weird that they were all unlocked at the start, from a single player perspective, but seeing as it's probably more focused for online co-op it makes sense.

Love the graffiti on the walls - makes it feel a lot more like a film and makes you wonder what's been going on before you got there, like the graffiti in Portal did.

Only thing I have noticed in the single player is that the bots tend to walk in front of me when I'm shooting - usually when trying to get a Smoker/Boomer/Hunter (never a Witch!).

Right, think I'll go do the last campaign in single player.:DD

Yeah the graffiti on the walls gave it more realistic, I could just go around the walls looking for messages people have left. Really did make you wonder who was there before you, some of the messages were funny though, I read one where people were writing there kill count, and someone wrote 1279 and underneath it someone wrote LIAR! :p

Great game! :woot:
