don't cheat lol, as in downloadable hacks.

mmm, I asked 'cause I'm not familiar with the word CHEAT, my native lenguage is spanish.

a hack could be the new maps that are around the web???

ShadowFold · Jan 24, 2009

Maps, skins, mods and stuff are OK. Downloading hacks, as in ones that give you infinite health and such will get you banned.

Buy the game it's a great game. Why not buy the retail copy off Amazon.com or something? At least you will own the retail copy with the pretty pictures.

I'm really not for sure, the ping on some of the teams are really bad, so I guess some are across the pond and some more. So go ahead sure, I think all around the world.

TRIPTEX_CAN · Jan 26, 2009

I dont think I would actually pursue a team to play l4d with.. I was just curious.

I have to say if someone really wants to have a team for L4D then I hope y'all are very team oriented, because you have to to succeed really well.

TRIPTEX_CAN · Jan 26, 2009

Yeah, L4D is not a complicated game. The hardest part is finding 3 other people who are aware of the other players and to play according to what others are doing. Moving should always be a push-pull setup where one players moves the others compensate. One leads, one watches behind, and the other 2 keep it close.

Yeah true.

But hey, just check out these sites for some tournaments that you could join possibly.

In my opinion one should lead up ahead (Not too far up ahead) while the other 3 are behind watching for anything behind and in between. I've been in a game where all four of us survivors got attacked all at once by 2 Hunters, 1 Smoker & 1 Boomer.
We where too close to each other I assume which made it sort of easy.

I think melee is the best form of defence when times get touch in the game and to prevent shooting your fellow players unless you have no choice but to go on a Shot Gun rampage which I was forced to go into once or twice and ended up saving us all a lot more then killing us all.

Chryonn · Jan 26, 2009

opinions differ on how to place players tactically. if you remain tight, then you run the risk of friendly fire. i agree, melee is much better when you're all together. a mixture of weaponry is also necessary.

TRIPTEX_CAN · Jan 26, 2009

Tactics aside. Awareness is the best weapon in L4D.. thoughts?

Chryonn · Jan 26, 2009

tactical awareness

Not if you have many blood sucking zombies eating your arms while you are trying to reload your weapons and at the same time watching 1 or 2 of your teammates getting slaughtered by a hunter.
You are right Awareness is one of the best weapons and it all depends on how good the others are at the game. I've seen some guys that successfully take out each member of the survivors one by one until there is nobody else left. Obviously these people play Left 4 Dead non-stop lol

TRIPTEX_CAN · Jan 26, 2009

Yeah awareness can only get you so far.... but I think its more important than anything.

is L4D fully compatible with vista X64????

Yes, in fact every game I've ever tried works with vista x64 and I have 17 installed right now.

Works fine with me. Not a single problem.

Haytch · Jan 27, 2009

The trick is to be playing with 3 other people as crazy as you.

Vista x64, I can never go back to 32-bit. X64 rules and does a great job as a gaming platform.

CH@NO · Jan 27, 2009

Thanx guys, I'll try to buy it tomorrow via Steam website, hope my master card will apply....if not i'll be very sad

Also buying via Steam they don't send you the game, instead they supply you a link to download it isn't it???

TRIPTEX_CAN · Jan 27, 2009

The game becomes available to download through the Steam application once you buy it. You never get a physical copy of the game.

I used my master card and it worked fine.

CH@NO · Jan 27, 2009

how many of you play the game on the hardest mode??

I'm currently trying mastering the advanced mode, using single player mode and It's is really hard, your mates are VERY kindly supporting you many times, but they are kinda stupid protecting themselfs, also helping you when the game turns bad having a thousand of infected attacking you....almost the hard parts you have to comple it by yourself, and they like to die in the crucial moments like in the final chapters.
