Props to the guys doing realism with all the lag.

Try a local server. I usually only suffer from lag when im playing in a party that's using a dedicated server. My problem is finding a team to finish expert mode 😠 Last night i spent 3 hours on dead center just to have my team leave at the finale. I spent another 3 hours on the parish just to have my team leave, yet again during the finale...wtf is that? lol

Ugh. That happened to me for awhile during my early days on the first L4D. Some friends/teammates those are. I know how ya feel..

Since I figured shit like that would probably happen in L4D2 as well, I decided to save the expert achievements for later/last, so I still haven't attempted them yet.

Also, am I the only one who finds it odd that they have a grenade launcher in this game but not a rocket launcher?

Nope.

I played the first one, and got the demo for the 2nd the other day, this totally should have been DLC, other then afew new weapons it feels just like L4D1, i refuse to buy this until its less then $15..and then ill only get it if i know other people to play with. And once again just like the the first one their should be more then 4 or 5 to play through, the first game should of had both 1 & 2 maps in one game or lower the game's price to the $25 range. IMO $60 is a complete rip off, even $40 is pushing it for the amount of gameplay.

Hahaha... Then how can you imagine this Left 4 Dead 2 Game (PC version) $30? free shipping? Yeah!

Ah, I love this glitch.

YouTube video

Not just for the achievement, but like in general. It's fun seeing others go "How the **** did he do that?!" when playing online and then trying to kick you. Might as well enjoy it as much as I can before they eventually patch it up.

Hey all,

Had a chance to put about 10 or so hours into this brand new game.All in all I give it a 9. The graphics are a small step up from it's predecessor. Content is much like the first, though with new added effects which set it apart from he first. Such as weather, which can add a hurried feel as you run through areas with limited visibility.The AI is the same, though with the addition of a few new special monsters. Each with a unique ability and different tactics to fight them.I found the campaigns longer, and considerably more challenging to play. Often time playing on normal difficulty feels like play a higher ifficulty back from L4D 1.Only bug I myself have run into is when the special known as the "tank" appears I get some frame skips, when he is killed it all goes back to normal.Valve has promised to fix this and some other bugs in the next patch.The only part I found less than inspiring were the characters. Just did not feel the "Unique" feel of the first.All in all, it's a worth while play in my opinion. I can be PM'd with any specific questions about the game.

Take care all and happy hunting!

They should the horrible AI.

It was good in the first game but this game your AI partners almost make the game unplayable.

I played this last night, through the "swamp fever" level. I enjoyed it. Though the survivors this time around are annoying, they should have implemented the classic 4some again this time around.

The new infected were a bit more annoying. Mudmen and Jockey's were more of an annoyance than anything else. The melee weapons are AWESOME though, I love using the cricket bat.

Funny since I found the AI in the first game to be horrible (especially Bills AI) although I concede that the AI has gotten a lot worse for the sequel.

They weren't great in the first but at least they stuck with you throughout the game.

This game's AI is horrible. They go in completely different direction.

Only char I liked in the first was Zoey.

I prefer the new survivors. Ellis and Coash being my favorite survivors.

Get online and hit some VS up with us soon.

What time?

BTW I'm a VS noob.

Also, anyone wanna work together with me to get Strength in Numbers sometime? It's the one that requires up to four human players in Team Versus or Scavenge and you just win a game. They have to be people on your friends list too; you can't make Team Versus/Scavenge a public game where random people can join.
Just need that and the expert achievements, which I'm saving for last/some other time.

And Dark Carnival is easily the best campaign of the game IMO.

Oh yeah. I love the avatar awards for this game too, especially the zombie hand shirt that I got for making 10,000 kills. The med-kit animation thingy is cool as well, but I think I'll stick with the lightsaber that I got from the avatar marketplace awhile back. Noticed you had that one too Zack. haermm 👆

I want to get the zombie shirt as well. Killing 10,000 zombies in left 4 dead is so fun to do.

I have to agree about the new survivors... Ellis is an annoying red-neck. Nick's pretty cool though. The only one I like playing with as a matter a fact.

Same here.

Ellis is funny man 😂 Other than Zoey and Bill i prefer this batch of one dimensionals over the last.

Yeah Ellis cracks me up with his no sense stories in safe rooms.
