Left 4 Dead

[erocker]

no I don't to play or want this game, even though I really enjoy playing Valve games, I'm just tired of the whole zombie genre.

It does look pretty cool though.

When the game goes on sale for twenty bucks do yourself a favor and get it. Versus mode multiplayer is where it's at. Lots of strategy and gaming skill involved. Plus nothing is sweeter when you are pouncing two survivors with hunters, have another survivor choked out with the Smoker and the other survivor fighting for his life against a horde because they just got puked on by a boomer.

nah...those types of games aren't really my favourite...my friend got me Half Life back in the day and I really it....then I played TF2 for awhile...but I'm just not very good at first person shooters. There's too much crap flying around and it gives me a major headache.

 

[RadeonProVega]

I believe this is the best zombie game ever made.

 

[Super XP]

Can I change my vote?! I'm one of the 12 jackasses who voted no.

You get into a portion of a campaign, prepare your defences, and pull a trigger of some sort. Then your team tries it's best to survive for as long as possible as waves of zombies come after you.

Oh, cool. I can't wait to try it out.

You know what the worst part of left 4 dead is? When you're so good the opposing team ragequits after every round because they got destroyed. My roommate and I played a lot of games today and we always ended with playing an entirely different opposing team. That's if we were lucky because half the time nobody would fill the opposing slots and we would end up playing against one person.

Oh and erocker if you read this you need to get in on a game with us. Seems like you're never playing when we are.

It's been happening all weekend plus a griefer here and there. Ragers and griefers are a worse epidemic than zombie infected.

Then you should play against people who are good and who challenge your skills so you won't have to complain about rage quits.

One round with me and my clan and we will make you want to quit.

 

[ShadowFold]

I never rage quit, unless I'm the only left on my team.. But I always have at least 1 friend on my side at all times so they'll always be us..

 

[Mussels]

i was gunna say join a clan. E's skill is about level with most of my clanmates.

I never rage quit, but i do occasionally rage-jump (with the entire team)
(elevator shaft for the win! E remembers this)

I'm sure a clan would decimate us, especially if we were pulling two random people around.

Pfft. I'm ready. What is your clan name?

I find the keys to having a good team are:
-Always keep an eye on your other teamates (you watch them, they watch you)
-Look for extra weapons/pills/pipes etc. but always keep a good pace through the round.
-Microphones! (good communication is a must)

All the rest is up to the individual's aiming/shooting ability, familiarity with each infected class and knowing the layout of the map.

It's hard for me to play really late 1. I'm ordering my new Componets tomorrow and my pc is in pieces. 2. when i'm on the mic I wake my fiance up I feel bad, my voice is deep and it carries through the house

 

[DaedalusHelios]

People always insist on Microphones but its really annoying having some random guy whining sometimes. Its usually middle school through college age people that whine. The older people are usually more team play oriented and they don't take it so seriously. Games are for fun, and people who always run ahead of the group and go rogue all the time are a pain too.

you can teach those people, with an shotgun to the face, ignoring them when pounced/smoked, and setting them on fire and shutting the safe room door in their face. they die a few times, then they learn.

 

[RevengE]

Yeah I get sick of the whining too. I play for fun, not to hear people cry all night over the mics like babies. I love it when people rage quit though, it's so funny to hear some of their voices, they sound like they don't have any pubes.

i met someone in L4D who sounded like a 7 year old boy. i went to go block them and start a votekick (i'm sick of parents letting <10 year olds play mature games) only to realise it was an 18 year old girl with a crap mic.

Since then, i've joined her clan and we play TF2 and L4D together.

Nah, I don't do player killing unless its deathmatch. I feel that doing onto others as you would like them to do to you is an important part of etiquette even when online gaming.

Also talking about what you are going to do as a plan, takes the fun out of it sometimes. Videogames are like sex, talk about what you are going to do in too much detail before doing it takes away the spontaneousness that makes it enjoyable.

eh... L4d needs a plan. go left, go right... do we crown the witch or sneak past, one at a time across the footbridge or go in groups.

without coordination, you're not working as a team - and this is as much a team game as you can get.

Haha, weird. I love LFD other than the 10 year olds/grown ups that act like 10 year olds. I can't wait to get the rig up and running again so I can play with you guys.

That is why pros get in Vent.

real men use teamspeak!

cant stand vent... terrible to use.

I was going to say "or teamspeak" but didn't feel the need too. Teamspeak is good but my clan leader uses Vent so I just go with that, gets the job done.
