Left 4 Dead 2

There's a theory going around that Bill was killed by a Tank. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case because I can imagine an old man dying right after getting smacked by one those hulking zombies that can send a car flying. It had to be a Tank that killed him because if it was a horde of common infected, Bill's corpse would have bite and/or scratch marks.

plus there's proof in the fact that if you let Louis kill the Tank in the finale, hell shout out "That was for Bill!!!"

Yeah, and plus Bills "go get 'em" attitude would make it perfectly logical that he would get by a Tank...old man on his last legs seems like the sorta thing.

Obviously yeah, the sound byte Louis says pretty much sums it up in one.

One of my mates read a source that suggested a new DLC for L4D1 was coming out to link the two games together explaining how Bill died and whatnot. Whether the source is reliable is a different story...

i thought that was in the form of a web comic and the DLC was gonna tell how they got to the south in the first place mhmm

Not sure...perhaps. I mean, I'm only telling what my mate read, I've not read the source myself...

L4D1 DLC is free but L4D2 DLC isn't. I wonder why.

well.... i finally actually played this
killed a Tank with a pair of pistols... then he raped me on the bridge ;-;

Its free on the PC.

And that MS wants to charge for all DLC.

They're all free only on PC? That's just plain gay.

Yeah I just noticed this. When I finally got on Xbox Live, I went to the market to find the L4D1 DLC and they're all priced (all except for the survival pack). I could've sworn I once heard Valve announce that all DLC would be free but I later found out that Microsoft wouldn't allow that. I hate greedy people.

You should get the survival pack anyway though so that you can also play Death Toll and Dead Air on versus.

I downloaded the survival pack yesterday.

You know what, screw Left 4 Dead 2. The game is nothing but a gamer's worst nightmare: a game full of lag. Sure the game may seem normal when you play single player but when you want to go do online mutiplayer, that's when crap hits the fan. I would've boycotted this game too if I found out Valve's evil plan sooner. Their servers were giving gamers lag because they didn't expect that many players? Seriously? Was a company who was aware that one of their games became a major hit wouldn't get a lot of players in its sequel? Pathetic! And even though they said they got better servers, it's still giving some gamers a whole lot of lag. I know it ain't my fault nor the disc's. My other games work fine, the disc lacks scratches. I can now understand why there are so many used copies of L4D2 at Gamestop, people were downright pissed off at this madness. As soon as I got it, it's been a suckfest. Everytime I went on Versus, I'm always stuck in one spot, I can't spawn, the characters I play are moving on their own, I keep walking backwards, I keep teleporting, and everyone is frozen stiff, even the Common Infected. Don't think this happenes only on Versus, it even happens on Realism, Scavenge, and the friggin campaign. The time I can play normally on this game without lag is EXTREMELY RARE! I'm going back to Gamestop tomorrow, bring the game back, and get either a refund or get a different game. Either way, I'll be glad I got rid of this monstrosity.

You could find it's your Rig/Xbox or your internet connection that isn't satisfying the games needs...it's a high spec game not just for your platform but for your bandwidth...

I rarely ever experienced any type of Lag in either Left 4 dead. I don't know about the PvP matches but the Co-op aspect of the game offers one of the best co-op experiences that can be had on any gaming console. The gameplay is smooth, fast paced and visceral. The graphics, characters and level design give an obvious B-movie atmosphere which should make any horror fan happy. That sucks that you're having such lag issues but the games quality really shouldn't be measured by lag issues. For as much as i'm praising Valve it should be noted how disappointing the DLC has been. Valve has lost a bit of my respect and admiration for their failures in promised DLC

Half of your post makes me think you're gloating. The Passing is bad? That's not what I've been hearing from most L4D fans. I'm mainly disappointed in Valve for not offering more DLC for L4D1. They promised a lot of it but all I see is the horrendous Crash Course and the Survival Pack which is kinda decent and they came out how long ago, last year? Either Valve is working on other projects or they're just plain lazy.

Surprise!!

A game company making more games!

Nah, i'm not gloating, i just rarely experienced lag when playing. As for the Passing, yeah i found it quite disappointing. The DLC that was hyped up as a bridge between the two games but didn't expand upon the story or characters. A brief cameo of the previous survivors hardly warranted a full marketing campaign. The levels weren't that bad. They were certainly better designed than that shitty, Crash Course. I liked the new gun, but what's up with not being able to use it in other campaigns? I also don't understand the decision of introducing the, Mutation mode instead of another Campaign or two. It seems like it was a cheap way to fool people into believing they were receiving a quality DLC package.Fans don't want another half assed multiplayer mode. Fans want more campaigns.

The fact that the PAssing came after an already disappointing DLC and took so long to release may have been overlooked had it been worthwhile. Everyone i used to game with on L4D2 share similar feelings of disappointment.

I agree, there was a serious lack of Original Survivor screen time for the massive hype. Very disappointing. The level design was very good however...

Well the game left for dead gives me the feeling like the fantastic four because the casting is same like that game and at the same time the game is about the war thats why I really love to play the game. Great power with the gun and ammo.

I thought the Passing was great. The last section was a tad bit different so it made the game a bit more fun.
