jjrox32 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I don't know about this...I mean the original L4D got pretty boring because of repitition...I don't see how this is any different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because in L4D2 it will be easier for people to mod [cabbage]. Lots of usermade content being made = less repetition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could easily release this as $20 DLC...or even better, make it free like TF2. If it's under $30 I might buy it, but I really don't feel like paying $50 for L4D with melee weapons from TF2.

Nadril Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 JJ have you watched any of the videos about it yet? It's a hell of a lot more than "L4D with melee weapons". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 New graphics, elements, characters, AI(director) Anyone wanna add on? New infected and weapons too. Not to mention new gameplay mechanics that force palyers away from hiding in a corner. (gauntlets for one, read up about it -- it's awesome. No longer can you sit in a corner and deal with it, you need to keep on moving forward or you will get swarmed.) It's plenty worth $50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't do that corner thing anymore expert on this is gonna be hell.

Riku3220 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I hope they keep the hunter pounce quick turns and the max of 20 dmg a pounce The max is 25 isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzle229 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Yeah it's 25, but there are some servers on PC with the pounce damage cap disabled. Get back here so I can rub your butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppet Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Seems too much of a copy of TF2 with weapons and the stole a load of sound effects from Half-Life. Still did we need more gore,a roaming witch,more special infected,things making it harder to camp,more guns,etc. Seems more of a copy then anything else this game either will be great or be worse than L4D which seems more likely.

Dizzle229 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 They couldn't have stolen the sounds, it's the same developer. On BOTH of the games you mentioned. It just seems like everything you said in that post was wrong, I can't even go into it all. How is it a copy? 1. Tf2, HL2, L4D, all are made by Valve. 2. How in the flying [bleep] is it a copy of TF2? Because they have melee weapons? It looks NOTHING like TF2 in ANY way. Get back here so I can rub your butt.

venomai Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I recognize the alarm sound from Perfect Dark. It sounds like the same stock. EDIT: Did a bit of reading on TF2 lighting techniques. Cool stuff, and I wouldn't be surprised if Valve was somewhat inspired by it for the L4D2 architecture, but still, the two games are not at all alike.

Nadril Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 The L4D team and a lot of the TF2 team are the same people so I wouldn't be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzle229 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Honestly, couldn't this just be released as an expansion pack or something? Get back here so I can rub your butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Requiring L4D and the expansion would kind of suck for new buyers. They did say that the will at least allow custom maps from L4D into L4D2, and they are looking into a way to connect the two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baalboy5 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 It can't be a DLC imo. Since you are relasing so much, I don't think it would fit into a batch. Also I believe that VaLVe owns and doesn't make people buy DLC? Don't you know the first rule of MMO's? Anyone higher level than you has no life, and anyone lower than you is a noob.

Also I believe that VaLVe owns and doesn't make people buy DLC? That's why I said expansion pack, not DLC. They're similar, not the same thing completely. Though, if they're looking for a way to integrate the two games then all my complaints are null and void, and Valve can once again pat itself on the back for another job well done.

Nadril Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 If you watch the interview I posted, dizzle, he says that valve is looking into ways to integrate them both. Nothing is set in stone yet but they want to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
