t0mbi Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 i have just started playing it with a mate offline splitscreen and i am really enjoying it! but i think it would go better with 4 player over XBL! does it matter that i chose the 2nd chapter first? are they in order or not really?

Nah not really, each chapter has its own different setting and 'story' or whatever :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/685714-official-left-4-dead/page/23/#findComment-590238222 Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoadorable Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 thanks for the input. still on the fence with this one - not sure if the mission-centric structure is what i want. the dependence on online is also a problem because of time constraints.

chicken-royal Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 It's a great game, if you've got time. It's hard to just "jump in" like you can on Team Fortress 2. Sure, you could jump in and play one scenario from a mission, but that kinda defeats the co-op team work idea.

neoadorable Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 is it really as short as the reviews say tho? i hear conflicting reports. get the impression it's like The Club...nice action but not much more.

Pc_Madness Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 is it really as short as the reviews say tho? i hear conflicting reports. get the impression it's like The Club...nice action but not much more. It is "short" technically I spose. You can play through all of the levels in 4 hours, and then another 2-3 hours on Versus. But as the AI makes the game abit different everytime its (different spawns for normal and super zombies) it has a fair bit of replayability. I'm abit disappointed with it.. but I'm still playing it, so it can't be that bad? I'm sure Valve will fix it up abit in the next month or so.

neoadorable Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 thanks pc madness, the different enemy spawns etc isn't a factor for me, don't consider that replayablitiy value. unless they got more levels coming, it sounds like a short game. then why am i so keen on getting it? must...fight..the...urge!

Smigit Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) thanks pc madness, the different enemy spawns etc isn't a factor for me, don't consider that replayablitiy value. unless they got more levels coming, it sounds like a short game. then why am i so keen on getting it? must...fight..the...urge! IMHO it's alot of fun but and the different spawns does make a huge difference every time you play it as you will have like 30 or 40 zombies rush you from an area that in previous games was completly quiet. It makes a huge difference when your in the game so you constantly have to be on your toes. It's not like they just swapped 10 zombies around into different spots, but rather the entire level flow can change potentially each time. Anyway it's a Valve title so I'd expect them to eventually have close to double the campaigns and all that a few months down the line. They've always been terrific at giving players free updates, at least on the PC front.

t0mbi Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Kotaku VIDEO THERE Well, Left 4 Dead was fun while it lasted. But it appears that you're going to have to deal with some serious douchebaggery at some point during one of your versus mode romps.Reader Mario wrote to us with a distressing tale, saying "Versus mode is a blast, but recently, I joined a game and found myself in a safehouse at the beginning of a chapter. Suddenly, about 30 witches spawned in the safehouse with me followed by two tanks." How? Console command-style hackery that can be used on the Xbox 360 version. Cute when it happens to the next guy, but probably not to you. You can see it in action in the clip above, which will also unfortunately tell you how to do it. We're contacting Valve to see if it's taking action to address Left 4 Dead cheating.
