Reminds me of how the spy would treat the scout in TF2:
"No offense, I just had to shut you up."

Oh man, got to love Valve.

There's 4 people there that are certainly badass enough to survive the zombie apocalypse. If this will be the first DLC for L4D2, I see a great future for the Left 4 Dead universe.

Hah hard rain in vs.  My team was repeatedly ragequitting the last few sections because none of them would work together. By part 3 (flooded version of the town) I was alone on my team vs 4.  I was survivor and managed to get myself and all 3 bots into the saferoom for full points, when I had taken the other team out early that round with the tank.

EDIT: Odd it posted when I didn't hit post... I wasn't done.

Finale round, they're still ahead by a little bit so they survive first.  Not accomplishing much with the SI. They're keeping together.  Then I get my first tank, I run off to a car while they still don't know what direction I'm in, and after a moment of aiming and guessing the needed arc I launch a car high up into the air.

They never see it coming as if falls from the sky on top of the roof of the burger tank. Instantly incapping 2 of them, then I rush in doing more damage before I finally get meleed to death while I was chasing down one.  They get their buddies up and continue.  As before I can't accomplish much more than pulling one off the roof now and then.  And the next tank goes bad as they spotted it were already halfway to kicking it's ass before I got control.

Then Virgil is showing up and I got the finishing tank.  Only one of them seemed to have played this one before and was all alone at the dock, which I punished brutally by ignoring the one's at the burger tank and going straight for him, sending him off into the death water with one punch.  The other 3 finally started heading to the water as virgil cruised in and they saw me between them and the boat. I incapped one of them before they filled me full of bullets.  But this is the "escape now" part of the finale, I immediately got another tank.  And the horde was slowing them down, 2 were on the boat and one was in green fighting the horde unable to move.

So I figure, why incap the one fighting the horde when that will just cause the boat to leave? So I ignore him and jump onto the boat swinging.  One flies into the water immediately, the other panics and leaves the boat, just as the guy fighting the horde gets incaped by the CI.  And then it's a simple matter of taking down the last guy who after a while of running decides to try to suddenly cut by me to the boat, it fails miserably as I end up hitting him next to the water, which he then decides to jump into for me as he tries to back away shooting.

Then I was called a hacker for getting 2 tanks in a row and they all quit.

Which # campaign is Hard Rain again?

Reason I'm asking is that I'd like to play the campaigns in order, but so far I've only completely played Dead Center. >,>

I don't have a working mic, though, so you might want to play with others anyway.

Yeah never mind. Hard Rain is 4th. Gotta play Dark Carnival and Swamp Fever first. =X

I would've played Swamp Fever first, but there were some graphical glitches for me of swamp water being a weird color or not showing up and the Infected being bright colors. These kind of put me off from playing it. But I'll play it after DC regardless.

[EDIT:] ...Has anyone seen an Infected Jimmy Gibbs Jr. in the Dead Center finale?

The Australian version in the demo is really getting on my nerves. Does anybody know a way to get around it? I may get the full version, but the no gore thing is annoying me.

Convince someone outside of Australia to purchase the game for you - if someone in the UK buys the game and gifts it to you, you get the UK (hence, uncensored) version. Alternately, find a 4-pack deal - you'll get the uncensored version and you'll only pay $35 for it. So long as the game was purchased in an uncensored region, you'll get the uncensored version, no matter where you actually live.

If you don't like trusting your money to random strangers on the 'net, you can also import it. Amazon, perhaps? So long as you're sure they'll ship it from outside the country, you'll get the uncensored version.





Finally, if you've got the bad luck to be saddled with a censored version, you have a couple of choices. Purchase an uncensored version and contact Steam support - they won't refund your original purchase, so you'll be spending twice as much money on the game, but you'll at least get the gore. Alternately, someone on the Steam forums figured out a simple means of reactivating the gore... but it disables in-game achievements, and for all I know it's 'unauthorized tampering with game files' or something else that might get you banned.


Oh, and if anybody's looking for a 4th player, add me at http://steamcommunity.com/id/Thexor. West Coast with mike.  ;D

So I finished playing all the campaigns on Easy today (didn't want a challenge; I just wanted them done). Swamp Fever was probably the most disappointing of all of them, but that may have been because I had anticipated it the most. Hard Rain was very good. At the point where you go down in the elevator, there was a "Wandering" (it was standing still) Witch right in front of the elevator exit, forcing confrontation. Killed it before it had a chance to do anything.

Still have the graphical glitches. Probably from an out-of-date graphics card. These made Hard Rain easier (at certain points, the Infected would change into bright colors, which were easily visible compared to the darkness everywhere else). Not replacing it anytime soon, though.

I'm ready for some custom campaigns. Those'll probably take a while to be made, though. Especially if they have their own Common-Uncommon Infected like the Valve campaigns.

I'm planning a campaign when the SDK is out.

If anyone has any suggestions for uncommon infected (if i can even make one! maybe valvE will release a toll for creating them) or Crescendo events or whatnot, PM me!

It's going to have a bank-themed crescendo event also, with a giant stereotypical vault door, with a Huge-ass hole in the back where there is a waiting truck, inoperable, Partially filled with bullion.

Models for such pending.
