I dunno. Scavenge sounds sort of interesting, but it doesn't sound fun at all. I can imagine the Infected camping at the capture zone and just waiting for the Survivors to come back. Since you'll probably have to carry the cans (And won't be able to shoot) You'll get insta-capped before you can drop the can and get out a weapon. [/quote]

There's this nice little thing I like to call teamwork. One person carries the can, and you've got three other guys with guns (or melee weapons) to kill the infected. And you can still melee with gas cans, so you aren't completely helpless.[/quote]

And they can position the Generator in an area that inhibits people from dong mass sneak attacks.[/quote]

Still. If you want a significant amount of cans, you're going to neeed to have at least 2 Survivors carrying cans, and that leaves two Survivors to kill 4 SI.

And I'm sure there'll be tanks and CI...

Meh. It could just be me, but I see this as any competent team easily getting the Survivors in a minute or two.[/quote]

I think the real problem here, Fingerfood is that you're assuming that Valve hasn't tested the gameplay to make sure it's at least somewhat balanced and fun to play. If this was not the case, why would they put it in the game? To annoy people? That doesn't help them make money.

*cough*Survival*cough*

But you're probably right. It's just when I read the title of the article I thought it was going to be something else, and not this.

I have to say that I've been disappointed in L4D2 since the beginning, and am only now starting to get intrigued. Right now Valve's just giving most people the "icing on the cake", since I'm sure most people are already convinced into buying it / have bought it, but I'm still uncertain. Valve should still be presenting good, new ideas instead of thinking they're already done.(Which I wouldn't be surprised if they are done with L4D2 and working on L4D3.

Pre-orders are up. I'm not preordering until after the 22nd so I know if our version is going to be uncensored or censored.

Smart. I'm going to wait til like Christmas when it'll be on sale, or another successful game sale like last year.

I've seen some Scavenge gameplay videos, and I'll say it's at least better than Survival.

Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D789nACM00M
(I love how the Boomer looks.

)

And I think I'm going to Pre-order L4D2 thanks to these: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game ... ievements/

New boomer = gross.

Achievements look sweet, seems to have more depth then before. Could be an illusion though.

I wonder what realism mode does?
Besides make it more realistic. (I know someone would have said it...)

Enjoy.

The demo is also supposed to be available to people who pre-ordered the game (like me), but it isn't letting me play the game today...

Edit: It will be available at 8pm GMT (for those who pre-ordered only. Everyone else will be on November 3)

Posted: **Tue Oct 27, 2009 10:42 am**

Only next week for the win!

I was wondering what was happening... Where did you get the new time availability?

What you guys didn't see in that video was me playing L4D1 in defiance as they both played the demo of 2

Posted: **Tue Oct 27, 2009 10:32 pm**

I'm liking the New Orlean's twist on the L4D music.

Demo (Pre-Orders only) was deayed by 10 hours and now delayed again! Don't get to play until 7AM 29th Oct, just stupid.

(That's today at 4PM EST)

This is annoying!

Posted: **Wed Oct 28, 2009 12:45 pm**

Why is it delayed? Especially a demo? And it launched flawlessly on the Ebah

Posted: **Wed Oct 28, 2009 3:53 pm**

They ran into "Technical Difficulties" and had to delay. On the bright side... 7 more mins.

EDIT- Delayed for the 3rd time, one more hour.

EDIT 2 - Delayed for another hour. (4th Time)

Posted: **Wed Oct 28, 2009 5:13 pm**

its delayed until 10 pm est.

in a cool tidbit, someone from valve told me that i dont need to preorder to play the demo as i can just grab the files from any other user and as long as steam is open on same pc it will run from the directory. Im not saying people should do that, i would never but yeah im not pre ordering now

Posted: **Thu Oct 29, 2009 7:46 am**

Was just playing, my version is Uncensored so it is very gory. When I say very gory, I mean VERY GORY. Absolutely love the demo, expert is hard online not just because of the newbs but because of the amped AI and Director. The gate alarm part on the second stage is very fun, running and gunning.. its basically free-for-all until you reach the switch.

Posted: **Thu Oct 29, 2009 8:21 am**

Awesome. Now I can't wait for the public demo. Haha. Wait so you get the uncensored demo, but get a censored game? That's wacky.

Also guru, your avatar is amazing.
