why are they making a second one? Why wouldn't they just add to the first like they have been? That's kind of dumb. No I don't plan on getting it until it's free..LOL. I liked killing floor better actually, they just need to change a few things and add to it.

No.
If this l4d 2 sells well, we can expect more unexpected sequels and less dlc like tf2, and valve will become something like activision with their cod madness :D

I will get it once I play the first one, which should be soon I hope... I tend to get stuck in a game for a while (FO3) and neglect the latest and greatest.

I'm not. Not until its 20$.:laugh:

I totally agree...personally I'm dissapointed that more wasn't added to the original. L4D2 better be more than just a paint job and a couple melee weapons...plus if they promise adding stuff this time, they need to stand by it. I still like the original, and the movie for L4D2 looks promising, plus I'm sure it'll have the fit, finish and polish that Valve is renowned for. I'm just dissapointed more wasn't done with the first game, I guarentee there's so much that could've been done that wasn't, and still could be done, but won't. I've heard valve's reasoning behind it, and sure all the stuff they wanted to do does suggest a sequel would be better than DLC's, but there could've been more US cities and areas added to the game, more characters, add another 2-4 slots for coop, add some more weapons and types of infected, it all could've been done with the original. Frankly I'll be keeping my eyes more on Modern Warfare 2 and BF Bad Company 2 tbh, L4D was fun but the novelty wore off after a couple months for me. Hell I didn't play too much of Killing Floor either, and that is another pretty decent zombie shooter/survival coop game.

If Valve can bring some truly amazing things to the table for L4D2, and I don't mean talk I mean when the game is actually released, add to server stability sooner than later, add more for coop, hell I could see zombie shooters getting large enough to have 12v12+ servers if each side was executed correctly, with valve's polish it would be freaking cool. Though I would like to see an SP storyline added to, maybe play through what happened to start the infection, add coop for that too, add interesting boss battles that aren't just necessarily infected, but maybe a military installation or blockade, something...I won't spend another 40 bucks on another L4D game though...it'd have to be about 4X the game the original was tbh. It's fun, but with the limitations (not aming down sights, laying down, limited player servers, limited characters and weapons) even the original imo is only worth about 20 bucks or so. I had a ton of fun with it, but the novelty wore off too fast to keep me hooked enough to justify the investment looking back now.

I'd probably consider L4D2 if it lasted more than roughly 2 hours...but it would be up against the likes of Modern Warfare 2 so...

I might get Left 4 Dead 2. Depends on how much cash I have in my pocket, and how good the game is.
