i heard they will include pc split screen any word on if this will work with the wireless xbox pc controller?

11/17/2008 11:17:35 PM

why on earth would you want to gimp yourself with a controller if you're playing on a PC?

anybody playing yet? Mine's decrypting....

11/18/2008 12:43:49 AM

^^we can't both play with a kb&m, so it'd be for whoever plays with me.

11/18/2008 1:20:06 AM

well level 2 in the real game is a lot longer than the demo and had at least 2 tanks and an unavoidable witch in it so far in my first go, damn that test tomorrow that's keeping me from going on

I've never heard of a demo being deactivated before. Lame

11/18/2008 1:28:29 AM

let it be known that VS. mode is the SHIT

11/18/2008 1:51:23 AM

I really really like this game. Granted, I'm not going to play it (and a bunch of other games) nearly as much as it deserves to be played because of WotLK, but it's simply the best FPS I've played since, well, the last one Valve released.

11/18/2008 9:10:31 AM

This game is too much fun. I can only hope they release more scenarios once the "where do we go?" factor of the original 4 happens.

As great as this was on the internet last night, it's got to be even better at a LAN party.

11/18/2008 10:14:04 AM

can somebody explain what options are available as far as coop on pc. i.e. can me and a friend get online and play with two other people? i'm considering buying(1st time in a long time) this game but i dont' wanna plunk down the money and be surprised that i can't play like i want

11/18/2008 10:30:31 AM

Yeah, you can make a public game, invite your friend and then it'll fill the last 2 spots using the matchmaking service.

11/18/2008 10:42:53 AM

So, how does this game stack up for just a single player, or is this game really not designed for that?

11/18/2008 12:40:50 PM

It's really designed from the ground up as a 4 player co-op game. "Single player" just means you've got 3 AI teammates instead of live ones.

Actually, seems if you really want to play by your self, there is a console command to remove the AI teammates.

^^ sorry guys i see now my question wasn't really clear. the game supports split screen for 2 players on a single pc. i want to know if me and a friend both at my house, on my pc can go online and play with other people.

woah, it does? that's pretty retarded unless you both get your own keyboard and mouse.

you really should start buying games again, a lot of really great stuff has come out in the past few years.

11/18/2008 3:04:36 PM

^^^Playing by yourself seems like a really really bad idea.

11/18/2008 3:09:11 PM

Playing with yourself seems like a really really good idea.

11/18/2008 6:46:28 PM

I see what you did there,

11/18/2008 7:07:58 PM

so anybody with the pc version (or 360? would that work?) want to get some TWW Coop going?

finally 'beat' the finale of No Mercy on hard, but only one guy ended up surviving mainly because I died holding them off while halfway up the metal ramp to the chopper, if I'd thrown my grenade about 15 secs earlier I might have made it up the ramp to the chopper too

I think by the end of it we had faced three tanks, and innumerable waves of zombie, hunter/boomer/smokers

11/18/2008 11:19:55 PM

Going to pick this up for the 360 this weekend. I'm pretty excited. So many games to play, so little time...

11/18/2008 11:31:37 PM

By the way, for those that have not purchased it yet, Circuit City has this game for $39.99. This is for the PC. I'm not sure if it's the same deal for the 360. I think this is only for a week too, so hit it up soon.

11/19/2008 8:44:05 AM

I'll wait til they inevitably release come DLC to pay for on 360 then release a collectors edition with the maps alrdy included on the disk

11/19/2008 10:21:08 AM

damn that sucks. 60$ for the 360, but you get a 10$ giftcard.

11/19/2008 10:27:23 AM

Versus mode is the most fucking fun ever created.

It's like Alien vs. Predator 2 except with a stable community.

11/19/2008 10:55:16 AM

^^ that at Circuit City?

11/19/2008 11:53:51 AM

si

11/19/2008 2:10:23 PM

getting a valve game on a console is a crime against humanity. i feel bad for how much you guys miss out on for things like Portal, TF2, and (soon) L4D

11/19/2008 2:24:36 PM

yeah it sucks that I'm missing out on a bit of DLC, but the game looks WAY nicer on my xbox and stupid big tv.

11/19/2008 2:44:09 PM

And the whirrrr of the 360s fans add a lot to the ambiance of a city full of zombies.

11/19/2008 3:08:33 PM

1. volume = ++
2. ...
3. PROFIT

11/19/2008 3:32:27 PM

damn circuit city no longer has this in stock

you keep saying that like it's true but I haven't seen anything in my pc version that would indicate it has that functionality.

besides two people sharing the same computer monitor is just retarded

Also anybody with the PC version that wants to coop sometime pm me or we can get a list of Steam usernames in the thread

I'm on the PC. Playing with random scrubs sucks. I'm DOOMTRAIN (my pic is of jesus on a dinosaur).

11/19/2008 8:26:58 PM

for those with a tv that can connect to the pc it's not retarded at all.
http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/55841
here's a statment saying they will support it. with the shear number of people with htpcs and the fact that having in home multi-player is one of the few advantages the consoles have it makes perfect sense.

11/19/2008 9:09:30 PM

The outside levels are freaking awesome.

Had a horde spawn out of a wall at me once.

Only thing I have seen that was like wtf.

11/19/2008 9:26:39 PM

Ok, well definitely no official support yet, I don't know if the console command to do it works in the full version or not, there's just no indications in-game that there can be two controllers, not even a second controller option for keymapping in the options.

So maybe they haven't turned it back on yet and will 'unofficially' support it once they get most of the launch bugs out of the way.

Right, because I want to drop $texas on my PC just to play L4D.

11/21/2008 11:35:38 AM

I got this yesterday, fucking amazing.

I don't see why anyone with a capable PC would get this for XBOX.

We're going to be playing through shit like Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead, and 28 days/weeks later while others are stuck with official DLC.

11/22/2008 1:58:02 PM

getting Valve games for a console is just a mistake

11/22/2008 2:37:48 PM

Just saw a YouTube video where someone had modded the TF2 map Dustbowl for playing Left 4 Dead. It was pretty awesome, if a bit short.

11/22/2008 4:07:49 PM

<3 the M4A1.

Havent seen a map where that sniper rifle is worth useing.

11/23/2008 2:24:12 PM

it has some use if you have a really accurate shooter, if you can consistently headshot a tank with the sniper you can drop him pretty quickly

unfortunately when the shit hits the fan the first thing I lose is my precision so I stay away from it

yes, $120 for a 8800 GTS SSC card is "$texas" and by rebuilt i meant i took it from a mid-tower and put it in a $50 media case that looks better under the TV...other than that it's the same internals from 2 years ago

------------------

just finished No Mercy on expert...first time doing that campaign, first one survived on expert, startled no witches the entire time

that should have netted me at least 3 achievements and I got zilch
