Left 4 Dead (L4D) is a horror-survival game from VALVe, the maker of Half-Life and Counter-Strike.

In L4D you have to survive from huge hordes of terrifying mad zombie-like people. You will survive with three other survivors, who are NPCs or real players.
So the game is multiplayer, and you can - of course join the hordes of the Infected (mad people, no they aren't zombies. They are mad.).

And there is this Director, who spawns the zombies around you all the time. You can't control him, I think.

L4D comes to Steam in November, of this year.

Enough talking. Here's the link.


PS: I'm gonna get my hands on this as soon as it hits the stores!

Pshhh, why wait till it hit stores? I'm gonna get it the second it's available for purchase on Steam! :p

I've been waiting for this game for a while now, I'm pretty sure it'll be awesome like everything else Valve makes.

This is gonna ROCK!!! It'll be great to play with friends.

Anyways, theres a few modes of play...

one where your a team and you survive waves of zombies, another is when Zombies are controlled by other human players and you have to fight them off...

needless to say, I WANT THIS GAME!

Where did they say they would get a demo? I've heard that nothing of the demo is being released anytime before the game is released.

I remember I read about the demo at Steampowered forums.

But I'm not sure, I may be wrong though. :/

Yes they are fast.
Imagine - you and your friends are in a narrow hallway. Then around you the infected/zombies rumble through the walls at very high speed! Then you are soo fucked.:D

Bumb.
It's here! You can now pre-order the L4D from Steam. It's 10% discount if you pre-order the game, and possibly access to the beta tests.

My first useful non-spammy post in this thread for a while

Well the demo is now out for those who pre-ordered the game from Steam, I'm now downloading the demo and will return later/tomorrow (depending on fun-ness) with a small review on the demo ;P.

This game is AWESOME.

The graphics are so great and the game play is amazing. Non-stop action.

The only downside is that it seems kinda short and I could see versus mode getting boring after a while.

That I agree with, but...

The only downside is that it seems kinda short and I could see versus mode getting boring after a while.

Versus mode isn't even available yet, you can't possibly know how good it's going to be ;o.

On the other hand, multiplayer campaign was incredibly difficult to get on to, I managed 2 games, 1 of which we were all disconnected from horrible lag, and another was working perfectly until somebody asked me to join their game (which wasn't working either).

Single player was definitely fun, but you only have access to a 2-part campaign at the moment. There is going to be 20 maps in total and much more weapons than you currently have access to.

Basically, the demo is very limited, but the elements of the game that you have access to are incredible fun, if you can get them working :).

I just tested the demo and I gotta say: It was awesome, but too short.
I like the replay value and the big zombie rushes. Can't wait 'till 18th!:thup:

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
