Your opinion on Left 4 Dead 2

In your opinion what do you think of Left 4 Dead 2? Because I just watch videos on Youtube and I was looking up some LAN parties people did and posted it on Youtube and I saw one of 4 friends playing Left 4 Dead 2 and it looked pretty good at what I saw. I don't know if it would be worth buying or not I just want to hear your opinions.

I thought the game was great and it is also only $20. There is still a lot of people playing it too.

It's a fun game. It's what? $20 or less? Totally worth every penny. And judging by your avatar, you gotta like Zombie games. I love zombie games so this game is a huge plus for me.Elann2008

[QUOTE="Elann2008"][QUOTE="Sweetbackhair"] Yeah I just checked it on Steam, it's only $20.Sweetbackhair

What are the specs of your laptop?

I hate it. Now I play EVERY type of game, and am pretty forgiving. But I just find it boring. Killing Floor is just so much more fun.

[QUOTE="Sweetbackhair"][QUOTE="Elann2008"] Just to let you know, there's a user made map that will be included in an official DLC launch by Valve. It's in beta form right now and it's pretty good. You'll have plenty of campaigns to play with your buddies or other players online. Plenty of community to go around and you shouldn't have a hard time finding a lobby/game.broken_bass_bin

It's only fun if you have a good group of people with mic's to play with, otherwise it is pretty boring.

it's fun for a good while but unless you're playing with friends it can get old. sweet game tho

very fun, and no, you dont need to play with real-life friends to have a good time.

its a great filler imo for when you dont want to load up a game youre gonna spend two hours on. Just play some L4D for 20-40 minutes when your other games seem too involving

I think it's a very fun game and worth every penny...but if you ask me the first Left 4 Dead is a better game. The first game had this really freaky/scary atmosphere. It was dark, serious, and really felt like 4 people trying to survive/escape a zombie apacolypse. The second game takes a more light hearted approach, even campy at times. The levels are brighter, the music twangy, and just overall IMO not as atmospheric. The first one also had better set pieces. For instance the plane crashing at the airport...f'n epic. I don't think there was anything that matches it in L4D2.

I do like some of L4D2's feature better, it does have more guns and stuff like that. I just can't help but be slightly dissapointed by the slight deviation from the first. Anyways still a great game highly recommended.

A VERY fun game indeed. It can get boring after a while but then you can always download other maps and form a wee team or something. You really need a mic to unlock it's full potential. Screaming 'IT'S BEHIND YOU!' never get's old.

i play with my 3 room mates. its the most fun thing EVER.

It lacks depth, it could be a much better game given a story, some more RPG elements, a solo/survival mode and more interesting environments.

If this is your first L4D game that you're playing, and if you have friends willing to play with you, it'll be an awesome experience for you. Have fun.

But I would not pay full price for the game, only because I paid the full $50 for L4D1 and what is offered in L4D2 is largely the same, but just done better. Is that enough to justify the price? Not really. Personally, I'll go through a campaign with friends and have fun just hanging out and shooting zombies, but the experience gets old, fast. Even with the custom campaigns, the gameplay to me is shallow.

I enjoyed it very much as I'm a zombie lover..I actually played L4D2 before the 1st since I planned to get L4D1 but then L4D2 was announced & I just waited it out..Haven't played in awhile but they're still rolling out DLC & mutations to keep things fresh which is always appreciated..

Well so far I'm liking the game but my laptop isn't the greatest when it comes to it so my performance is bad. But I'm looking forward to upgrading my desktop so I can take it with me to college and play on it a lot.Sweetbackhair

L4D2 is actually a really forgiving game when it comes to graphics demands. you should check out the recommended req's and see if it would run

i run it on my laptop with an iffy graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 320M) and it runs slick as tetris

I like L4D2 although it feels like it could have just been an expansion for L4D1.

It's cool having new maps and the ability to use melee weapons but those are the things that you can just add onto the already existing game.

the addition of the carnival level was a bad idea... i can't play it due to a phobia of clowns.

It's good fun and a huge improvement over L4D. I highly recommend it, despite the lack of official content. But then again, thats why you download user-made campaigns and maps!

Playing with ppl youre familiar with is better than pugging, but even in random groups you can have fun, so long as you all -at least- type to communicate.

That's so sad. The Carnival is the best campaign imo.

:( darn. I guess it's a shame I will never ever EVER in my life ever be able to play it. I can still play the other camps. though :)
