The Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 Clubhouse!

[erocker]

I've decided that I will no longer play L4D until they fix the spawning exploits in versus mode. It's become ridiculous with too many using them. It's completely ruined the game for me now. I'm sticking to L4D2 now as they have conveniently fixed it in that version.

Is that the spawn inside the saferoom shenanigans?

With the Sacrifice it seems like their trying to put the nail in the coffin of L4D1 by adding the original survivors and No Mercy.

I don't know, at this point it almost seems worth it for them to merge the two games.

Hoping this is a photoshopped troll. I didn't take the shot.

Next add on is that the people from 1 will be able to play on 2.. Or something on that way.. I faint remember reading something with the title... : Bill with a chainsaw anyone? :

So, It's going to be a cross fixing

Interesting speculation thread on the Steam L4D2 Forum


Apparently some enterprising gamers were looking into the files for the DLC and came across Left4Dead2_DLC3 in L4D2. Left4Dead2_DLC2 contains the files for The Sacrifice and No Mercy, with the models from L4D1 and stuff, while DLC3 contains files "other" files that are being speculated as the rest of L4D1's original content.

It wouldn't be that big of a stretch for Valve to port L4D1 over to L4D2 and just kill the original game, especially when they said that L4D1 was delayed on the Mac and there's going to be a surprise announcement tomorrow.

No matter what they do, I will continue to suck at the game.

The L4D2 update is over 3gb, I wouldn't be surprised.

if they port l4d 1 to l4d2, i want my freakin 60 bucks back that i paid for l4d2. i bought that and now your telling me i could have not bought it at all and just waited long enough to play it? not cool valve.

 

[DannibusX]

I highl ydoubt it would as simple as that. Porting L4D1 to L4D2 would mean you need L4D2 to play it. Valve has said in the past that the original L4D had engine limitations, I assume that those who never bought L4D2 would still play vanilla L4D1.

 

[Exile_Chavez]

true, that would make sense as a liable marketing method, hey all you people that own l4d1, if you buy l4d2 then you can still play l4d1 on it! i could see valve doing that

 

[erocker]

I think No Mercy is excellent in L4D2. I know their next "surprise" will be the rest of the maps.

I wanna buy L4D2, $6.79 is a steal, just wanted to ask if there is anyway to edit the files to get the gore in the game, screw the low violence version

ya gotta get a foreigner to buy it and gift you the UK/US version. it still plays with aussie versions.

i wonder if valve will ever fix the game so that people cant do the crouch glitch or the safe area glitch. so lame.

Please enlighten me, what are these glitches and how are people using them?

 

[Easy Rhino]

one glitch is where you are an infected and you when you have not spawned yet you crouch inside a box or something similiar and then spawn. it allows you to move around really fast and be completely silent.

the safe room glitch is weird. somehow all the infected hit E at once and they can spawn inside the safe room even when the doors are closed and the level has not ended.

Never heard of either of those, but I assume they are exclusive to the versus mode, which I don't really bother with, so that would explain my ignorance.

Alright, so I just picked this up when it was for sale on Steam. And to be completely honest, I have never been a huge L4D fan, but I also have number 2 (yes I know that makes no sense at all, guess moneys burning a hole in my pocket). But wondering what keeps you guys with this over number 2, or if there is some great mods. The way I always felt about the game is, is that I hate special zombies that just flat out lock you down, and I don't like that swarm of zombies, I just feel the zombies should always been there in large numbers. Hopefully I can be lured in.
