L4D2: summaries and space for bitchin'

[Vadyr]

Why...is the Tank so easy to kill. :|


yaaaay L4D2 is out...and it's been out for a while. Slow V is slow.

Regardless to people complaining about the game around where I live, I say there's no point in comparing L4D2 and L4D cause the newer game is like a different game altogether.

First Reason: Day.
The whole aspect of "Zombies in the Night" gives it the creepers. L4D had the whole eerie thing goin' on with the obnoxiously loud gunshots and the horrifying music. Mucking around in the crack of noon gives it a...'lighter' approach. Like an appetizer. I like it. I can see people coming at me :I.

Second Reason: Speshul Zombies.
I hate Spitters. I hate them. They can rot in Castle Oblivion located under the buttcrack of Sparda for all I care. Jockeys were somehow highly anticipated, but they die really easily. :\ huh...WHY IS THE TANK SO EASY TO KILL.

I really have more then just two reasons why the game is different, and shouldn't be compared to the first one, but then again it is titled LEFT 4 DEAD "2". Maybe a better title would've been "Killing Spree of brainless folk in teh crack of noon."

But then that'd just be everyday life in America.
What do you think?

I’m really enjoying the game.

In regards to all the arguments as to it being too similar to the first game.

I think the sequel added quite a few good changes while not really overhauling much of the core game play.
It's obvious Valve recycled most of their assets for the sequel, but the new game play tweaks like "Day" time, and New Special Infected really do spice the game up a bit.

You also get five campaigns that seem to be a lot more varied in style and location than the four in the first game.

Would I call it a simple expansion, no way, but would I call it a ground breaking sequel? Not by a long shot.

You obviously haven't played the game on Expert.
Damn things take like 10 times as many shots to put down. LOL

I spaced out on replying to this earlier, but it made me LOL and LOL. Little V, you should bring this game over some time.
