Left 4 Dead - My verdict also your verdict/opinion for Jan Lan..., Also known as: What COOP should of been... Wait no... Options

[Kinjeto]

So under the assumption that Valve did something right and under the assumption that CS:S was under the classification of 'tactical gameplay' by false definition. I decided to give Left 4 Dead a go. Now I've never really seen a great coop game play since probably maybe Serious Sam 1 in 200? and something but Left 4 Dead really takes the cake.

Not just when it comes to the Versus campaign (which will probably be fixed minus a few bugs, because nothing is perfect) but just cause the Expert campaign is such a devil. The fact that you shoot your own team mates; your fresh out of luck. You make decisions against the team well your shazbot out of luck seriously and of course, waltzing off like John Rambo is just well negatory. Read some reviews on metacritic and thought what the hell are these people on?

So I then go back and think about pathetic attempts made on by Call of Duty 5 zombie game mode:

to try and cash in on some form of zombie craze:

In some ways its comforting to know that Left 4 Dead did coop randomly and right the first time. I look forward to playing this at next LAN I will see you there.

Hi,

I really should check this shit out. Co-op is what makes LANs great and it's what we've lacked since.. well... the DOOM and QUAKE days.

See you at the LAN.

-z.

[dead_man]

lol me and mini spent almost 6 hours playing SWAT4 coop at extremelan.

needs more coop action

[R4N]

needs moar RA3 coop

[MissDumpling]

Unfortunately we cant do RA3 co-op, EA are dicks and they locked the Co-op campaign mode to online only, so you need a legit copy AND you need to be online to play co-op

[TechL]

Yeah I really enjoy playing this online, much fun.

[riskkk]

I downloaded this form mininova, any way to play online? Preferably australian servers to save getting 100+ ping. I really hate paying for games.

[Sando]

Not that I'm aware of. It's worth buying even for single-player anyway, the developers deserve your support.

[riskkk]

If I were to play SP only, why would I buy it? It's a 900MB download from mininova...
And it's valve for gods sake, like they need more cesh

[Sando]

Because it's a really good game and they deserve to get paid for their hard work?

*sigh*

[mang]

its even on special atm on steam .. soo just buy it you cheap prick.

[Sando]

Not to mention, Valve is a relatively small game development house - they're only well known because of their quality games.

[TechL]

I've bought pretty much every Valve game with the exception of Counter Strike, because I never play this. Valve is pretty much the only gaming company I'll support.

[riskkk]

I won't buy it unless it has an exceptional multiplayer side... It's selling atm on steam for about 54, so maybe... If someone can vouche for the multiplayer side of it i'll consider.
PS tech you're signature must cause the odd seizure

Left 4 Dead is great in multiplayer, however since I'm capped I haven't been able to play it a whole lot.

Removed the sig image just in case.

[riskkk]

Yeah might get it then
