Left 4 Dead

[[AK]Bribo]

I played a little "versus" last night where 4 players are the survivors and four players are ont he zombie team playing the various bosses that spawn in. The zombie team tries to prevent the survivors from reaching the safe house. Once the team either reaches the safe house or is eliminated then the sides switch and the zombies get a turn at being survivors for the same map. This is a lot of fun and up to 8 can play.

Sounds like fun--90% downloaded, so I should be looking for trouble within the hour.

[[AK]Nuts]

new to steam... how do i join in on L4D with other AK? If I right click on the game or their name, I get the default browser right click menu.

[[AK]Hylander]

I've purchased and downloading now. I'll be on later this evening for some zombie killing goodness! I'm Hylander12871 on Steam, just as an FYI.

[[AK]Nuts]

okay... figured it all out. Me and Beast just rocked through No Mercy. Great Game but can't let Nuts Jr sit on my lap through this one... he's bummed. I guess I'll have to play a little bit of Hulk tonight so we can smash stuff.

I just played a few hours with Bribo and Joe - it was an absolute blast. I love Fallout 3, but this is better for pure 'fun'.

[[AK]The Beast]

That was the best multiplayer game I've played in a long time. Absolute blast. Felt like being in a zombie movie. I was depressed when the chopper left without me.

[[AK]Bribo]

This game is an adrenaline rush like no other. I'll be on later tonight. Look me up.

[[AK]Hylander]

If any of you are on the fence about getting this, don't be! This is worth the price of admission and is a great deal of fun. I played a few times this weekend with Bribo, his son Joe, and last night with Beast and it was a blast. I'm looking forward to trying the versus mode some time.

If you're looking for a game that is fast paced, a little strategy, and just a whole lot of blowing things away - this is the game for you. Friendly fire is on, so there's plenty of opportunity to [TK]StitchJones your teammates. Poor Beast - I think I unloaded at least a clip or two into him last night. Of course, he also missed the boat and we left without him.

[[AK]The Beast]

Yeah--that was twice. I played with Nuts on Saturday afternoon and tried to fight off the zombies before boarding the chopper on the first episode. Now I know better--once evac comes, you just have to run for it and hope the rest of your team makes it too.

And Hylander--I stayed to watch the "credits" after you and Bribo logged off last night, and I out-damaged teammates by about 2 to 1 over you. I definitely won the Stitch award!

[[AK]Bribo]

There are many opportunities for "Stitch moments" in this game.

[[AK]Hylander]

There are many opportunities for "Stitch moments" in this game.

I wonder if there's a way for him to get locked behind a door - other than the reviving rescue rooms of course. He'd probably find a way to get stuck behind a tombstone in the cemetery.

[[AK]Faxman]

Want to get some people together for some L4d? What about tomorrow night, say 9pm est?

[[AK]Bribo]

Tuesday at 9pm EST sounds great to me.

One thing I read and learned earlier in a match was that the longer you sit around the more time you give the 'director' to spawn in more infested and hordes. You have to balance searching an area for health/ammo/explosives and moving quickly along to the safe house. This applies throughout the map and not just the last stand.

I was in a match earlier in which they 3 other guys wanted to fight on the barn roof. They thought they could 'clear' the area.

Also, we should set up some games with 'pistols only' to get those badges.
