Dave, wtf are you talking about? This game is amazingly good. Not a fan? why roll up into this thread then? And I beg to differ from our short discussion on Live. This game is FAR from boring. I havn't had this much fun playing and learning a game in a long time.
And super BOO! to doubters and haters of the idea of a Competitive L4D. First off, anyone who knows or understands how this game works, and going into it competitively. really just lost all ability to have their bitching mean jack shit. By going into competitive L4D you understand that the game itself is not always going to be fair to you, your team, or your enemy's team. You may have to face SEVERAL early tanks and in return you may never get a tank. Don't like it? Tough shit, you knew ahead of time the game can and may work like that. Best you and your team can do is prepare and handle the situation best you guys can. Remember, you get points for how far you've gotten not how many infected or survivors you kill. Thats how I feel about all that.

Game is too random for competitive play, but that's something that's easily fixable.
Btw, if you want to be awesome, do this:
If you're on PC, enable the dev console in options -> keyboard/mouse
then do:
bind 1 "+attack2; slot1"
bind 2 "+attack2; slot2"
then hit 1 and 2 maybe 4-5 times a second, and each time you do, you'll do a melee swing, making you swing MUCH faster than normal. You can hold off an entire hoard like this.

Don't defend the farm house, defend the barn to the left of it as you're approaching the front door. Climb up the ladder and there's a stack of ammo in the barn. Hide in the corner there and shoot the zombies that run in from the hole in the wall/roof and the ones that climb up the ladder, and avoid smokers outside. When the tank comes, stay on the top floor and run around the rafters. The strat is less effective in VS due to not as dumb tanks, but it's still better than the house.
yeah, but who cares what you think :)
just playin with ya rek, i really dont hate the game. I do think it can be a bit boring, especially going through it multiple times with the same people. but ive had my fun with it

LOL, werd.
I think I said it this morning playing with Sigel when we kept losing to right outside the safe room tanks on Death Toll 4. "You have to have a certain mindset to sit and laugh at this shit." Seriously, I think my fanboyism for this game is starting to get out of hand. XD.

:rolleyes: Surprised we dont have a smiley for that. My eyes just did a backflip.
I dont have a problem with a game like that becoming competitive. IMO, worse games have done the same and become much bigger (H3, GoW). Its got issues though, so no use in acting like they arent there.
Anyway, for Rek and anyone else interested in L4D competition.

That seems to be the equivalent to teamfortress2fort.com for TF2. Kinda small at the moment, but Im sure it'll grow.

I'm all about some L4D, especially Versus (sans griefing 12-year-olds). Setting up a strategy as the Infected and tearing people's shit up in perfect coordination is extremely gratifying, but requires good teammates. Yes, teammates make or break the fun level of the game, but you can't beat it when you've got 3 others on the same page as you. Rekano, Fluffy, Chuckie Landslide, and myself were looking like the A-Team out there, and I was on my Hannibal Smith shit, cigar and a big-ass grin. I love it when a plan comes together.
Add me if you want another person for Expert/VS/etc, I'm always down to play if I'm around. Also, anyone interested in giving CAL/Gamebattles a shot?

I've only stopped playing this for a couple of days and already i feel remorseful to the point that its an abandoned child left in a trash dumpster. A crime which should be punishable by death. Sigel, if i can get on live tonight hopefully we can get more vs. matches in.
Rekano
:O
I'll be on tonight for some Zombie thrillfests.
Sigel: I'd be willing to give that a shot.

you are so lame.
i've been playing this offline lately and its growing on me. i suck at shooters worse than i suck at fighting games but its still pretty fun. i want to buy it but i might have to resort to workin' the corner to get it anytime soon :(

In what way am i lame exactly? That was uncalled for. If workin' the corner is all it takes for you to purchase this game, then frankly you should have it today easily. By my recollection, you were rather skilled at workin' the corner. In all seriousness though, can't you con that boyfriend of yours to either buy you a copy or loan his to you??

hahahaha i hate you bradikins.
he's pretty attached at the hip to his game, i've tried conning it out of him, trust me. he wont buy me a copy because he is also broke. we are a poor couple. i was going to ask for it for my birthday which is soon but i ended up getting my hair done instead. PRIORITIES!!
i completely walked into and fully deserved that corner comment. although i will say if you had a baby and dumped it into a trashcan i would creepily pick it out and raise it as my own and name it after you. because if he survived that, he truly would have A Million HP.

QFT. I log most of my L4D time on PC, and I never see this kind of stuff going on.
If any of you are doing Expert runs of anything, I'd love to join (I'm best at No Mercy, but can do a quick run of anything to learn the path). Hit me up with a friend request.

Wow. I'm at a loss for words. That was just pure awesome. I mean it too, really good one there.
How many games do you have that you dont play?? If you have a decent amount, maybe you could trade some in at gamestop or something and use that in conjunction with some loose change. I know my household can accumulate 20$ in change rather quickly.
