Left 4 Dead 2. What happened?

[TridenT]

I bought this game for $5 and no one is fucking playing! WHERE IS EVERYONE?!

Fuck I hate this shit... So many shitty servers too. No server browser functionality. (openserverbrowser is broken. It can't actually show games)

If you have friends you can play with them. Thats what I do.

I like versus mode though... I hate the normal game.

 

[KeithTalent]

You just suck.

I'm pro. You knowz it.

I got it a few months ago on a $5 deal, and it got old quick. I only enjoyed it for the multiplayer, and only for about 20 hours of gameplay. I didn't have too hard of a time finding a group when I bought it though. I started playing custom maps for a bit, but I think I only got another 5 or 6 hours out of that before I was bored.

 

[thescreensavers]

lol I bought LFD2 and LFD when it was a deal together for cheap. PLayed them both for like an hour tops

 

[KeithTalent]

I actually enjoy the game quite a bit in both Versus and another mode (can't remember the name of it right now, but you play as the Surivors with M16s and just run through blasting Infected) but I have not tried the single player at all.

Lots of douchebag players in this game though which can be really annoying.

Yup. Every time Steam has a sale on L4D2, the douchebag factor goes up by 5.

It's a great game, but unless you have buddies to play with, you're sol.

I don't feel VS was ever balanced very well. I think leagues restrict you to vanilla weapons for this reason. Personally, I always felt scavenger mode was the most fun and competitive but everybody stopped playing that completely after about a month.

 

[pcslookout]

Nothing happen. I play normally Realism Versus with my team of two French Friends. Most of the time we get a good forth player. We only play for fun but it is always a blast!

Granted sometimes we have to wait a little while in the lobby but it is well worth it!

 

[KeithTalent]

By the way, if anyone still plays and wants to add me, feel free to do so (KeithTalent). I hop on relatively often; be warned I am pretty mediocre, but I try hard and have lots of fun doing it.

[shortylickens]

I think exactly what was predicted to happen.
Making a sequel too soon split the player base, and eventually hardcore guys migrated back to the original.

AMIRITE?

 

[snewdle]

I actually enjoyed playing it. That is until my teammates would intentionally screw everyone else by triggering boss/zombie swarm scripts way too early. :\

 

[ViviTheMage]

L4D was great, I probably put 28 hours into it ... L4D2, I probably put less then 60 minutes into it...got burnt out, LOL.

Yes but do you play Realism Versus? Most people don't. They just play normal Versus.

 

[erikistired]

you should try getting friends, but that would mean leaving the house. it makes the game much more enjoyable.

 

[M0oG0oGaiPan]

What custom campaigns do you guys recommend for l4d2?

I tried out dawn of the dead too and city 17. Both pretty good.

 

[McLovin]

I keep hearing about this one mod call I Hate Mountains or something like that and its supposed to BE the reason to play L4D. Anyone else here about it/try it?

 

[KeithTalent]

Normal only. Never tried Realism.

KT

 

[bamacre]

Normal only. Never tried Realism.

KT

Realism Versus will open your eyes to just how much you're dependent on your teammates' glowing.

Never played the first, but I have put over 2000 hours into L4D2.

 

[SunnyD]

They're all playing COD:BO Zombie mode. :hmm:

 

[pcslookout]

Normal only. Never tried Realism.

KT

If you think Versus is fun you have tired nothing yet.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

Can't leave the house, I hear a smoker outside. Plus, there's ammo here and an extra health pack.

 

[pcslookout]

I play a lot of Last Man On Earth Mutation too. Some of the mutations are worth playing others not so much.
