Re: LEFT4DEAD
Yeah kinda unclear what they were aiming for..Its not horror its not survival..
What i would have expected from sich a game is random level generation and just endless zombie hordes coming at you with all kinds of special weaponsand perks all over the map..
Fuckign reload is annoying..I wanna slaughter them but i cant fire fast enough..
Its like serious sam but with less enemies,easier and u need to reload constantly cause you only have 1 weapon and guns.
And you cant avoid zombies or make maneuvers cause they are much faster so your only startegy is slowly advancing while trying tnot to set some random horde upon urself and watch for the special zombies..
zzzz

Re: LEFT4DEAD
it is survival horror, they just called easy mode normal for some reason.
on expert you need to share health, help each other up, protect and save people on a regular basis, though you still don't run out of ammo usually, though when you do its catastrophic.
again, obviously its easy on easy.the-middleman wrote:I played the demo and its pretty much like svencoop with zombies. There is no teamplay, everyone is just rushing in for the frags. Also there is no atmosphere cause everyone is firing machineguns all the time which makes it hard to be a scary game.
There is no "survival" in the game cause you got lots of ammo and you find unlimited ammo stashes everywhere.

Re: LEFT4DEAD
never heard about this game till now. looks abit like counterstrike to me but the graphics look really good and it does look interesting. i might try it.
Re: LEFT4DEAD
I haven't played any other mode other than expert but, shouldn't protecting and saving be sort of a priorty. And when most people feel godlike and they haven't been downed once, most people do go and give their medkit to some noob.Machiosabre wrote:it is survival horror, they just called easy mode normal for some reason.

And it's probably just the games that I play,I meet alot of wussies. I'm usually the one jumping down first, going down the escalator first, entering the train first. I wish we could all move in a more tacticle sense like the first I played. That time everyoen was lot more together and we all had a sense of mutual objectiveness.
The game certainly isn't as freaky as Zombie Panic, where you really have a sense of being alone sometimes and you get really jittery. The game certainly doesn't have the survival aspect of Zombie Master, where in maps with limited ammo make strategy and teamplay a 100% must.
The game itself is fairly easy. I love the characters though. A tank on expert though usually ends the game. A witch isn't too bad just as long as your team is aware of the threat. Hordes only screw you up when theres a couple hunters around or a hunter/smoker. If anything, friendly fire ends more games than the infected.
Limited ammo would definately make this game alot cooler as it would really make things alot more tense. Give us a better melee weapon, take away unlimited pistol ammo. That'd be awesome.
Well, on expert, no one really rushes in like an idiot, excluding me becuase sometimes I want to look badass with two pistols and getting headshots. Theres more common sense Im assuming than in the normal modes. People tend to move grouped, 1 person might scout a few meters ahead and crouch down to avoid friendly fire.

Re: LEFT4DEAD
I plan to get it, the demo is really fun.
Re: LEFT4DEAD
judging by the demo it seems very smooth/stylished.
the first time i killed one of those bloated ones i ran straight into melee range and blasted it off with a shotgun, only to be blinded and overrun by like a billion zombies, hopelessy shooting at them with a pistol

Re: LEFT4DEAD
I am looking at getting it but I am rarely on live because if I am home I am doing gundam stuff and if mobile ops comes stateside my xbox will live for one purpose.

Re: LEFT4DEAD
This game is frigging brilliant. To the person that said it's not survival or horror, you haven't played it late at night, with 3 friends, on teamspeak/voicecomms with the lights out and the sound up on expert difficulty.
It makes me poo myself regularly, and I haven't even started to look at the vs mode.
