Left 4 Dead 2 Announced

Well, maybe not what people expected, i thought there would be more dlc packs, but its been proven

It looks good, BUT, tbh its kind of a big DLC pack, i personally feel that they dont want to go down the pay to play DLC packs, so they are going to make us fork out another 30 - 40 quid to buy this.

I sound like im moaning, but i will still buy it, because it will be epic, The New AI director sounds great!

Bad news about this is, with more time on L4D2, it will more likely push back EP3 to a EVEN later release

Or it could be they want to make the EP3 have its own unique box, with L4D2, Portal 2 and HL:EP3, just like the Orange Box.


Ha yeah, thats a pipedream..

Wow, I had no idea that they would release a sequel so soon after, sounds awesome!

I think Bloo has the right idea, I can't see EP3 being released any after that since it's already been in production for an age.

TBH not that far-fetched. I'd put dibs on the Blue Box.

Think we should all put bets on next colour box, winner gets cookie at i37 ( if ur not goin then u dont deserve a cookie anyway)

Looks fun, they're going with their original idea of each campaign leading onto the next one as well!

I think they might take this down the RPG route as they are doing a bit with TF2. I wouldn't mind that as it fits better than it does with TF2. I like that we have proper melee weapons now though.

It definately won't be a DLC because all the graphics and characters are different, I think Valve decided they didn't totally like L4D so they wanted to re-do it.

Also they have to compete with resident evil and even killing floor, they need to be more grusome and abit more traditional zombie killing with chainsaws :D

The new melee weapons are probably there so that Valve can lessen the total ammo a player can carry, at least, that's my theory!

Wow thats so soon, awesome news!

Though i dont like the look of the new characters :p

Heh, the original characters were better than the final L4D1 ones.. I bought a PCZONE instead of PCG a couple of years ago and it had a special on L4D, the only character that stayed the same was the old guy.

The woman is now black BTW. Pretty retarded if you ask me, there are now 2 black people and 2 white people. Bloody political correctness. They could have atleast made her an attractive black woman.

Count yourself lucky then didn't make one white, one black, one Hispanic/Muslim/Indian and one Asian. Maybe that's for Left 4 Dead 3!

No wheelchair-bound zombies?

I swear, these PC fanatics really miss the obvious underrepresented classes!

Wot about the survivors, I think one should be a cripple at least, they covered the whole race thing but they always forget about the disabilities :O
