Week 1: Realism Versus
Week 2: Bleed Out
Week 3: Follow the Liter
Week 4: Last Gnome on Earth
Week 5: ?
Week 6: ?

...Rest of mutations. Spoilers.

Realism versus was great, I hope they add it as an official game mode. Bleed out however is awful. I just got through playing at least a three hour round on expert and we couldn't get past the second level in Dead Center or The Parish.

Realism versus was a blast, im just about to try bleed out. Im glad theyre going for making it more difficult for everyone rather than making it easier for noobs/casuals, theyve got easy campaign and normal vesus to screw about with.

Also nick and ellis tied at 33%?? Come on guys nick is way cooler than ellis :p

I Voted yes for realism versus as permanent mode :thumbsup: cant imagine many voting no, maybe those who spent the week trapped in some corner with a jockey on their head :)

vs realism was great. Huge sense of accomplishment if you actually make it to a saferoom. Was totally stacked for the infected team though.

Bleed out is the worst, especially when someone goes AFK and you are literally dieing waiting for them, and bots are slow so even if you kick them sometimes it doesnt help. And i noticed not as many people will stop/go back to help if a team member falls.

Mutations are a great idea though.

Yeah, the most recent update announced them for L4D2. One gametype a week for (I think) twenty weeks. This is week two.

Of course, there are already mods that have all of them unlocked, supposedly...

New mutation follow the leader sucks, it just makes the survivors even more organized than before.

Yeah that damn gnome is sooo annoying, on one playthrough we got hit hard by a horde and got seperated into 2 groups of 2, eventually we got back together near the safehouse and realized we left the gnome about 1/3 of the way through the level, we each though the other group had it, we killed ourselves and started over lol.
