ive played the game a fair bit and can see why they have limited versus to normal.

If your a decent infected team you can completely dominate on anything higher than nomal, even the hordes on advanced do enough damage.

Honestly i prefer the advanced versus simply because its more of a challenge for the survivors which it always should be imo.

Th eproblem with L4D as with any co-op game is that your team is only as good as the 4 players in it, you only need one person running off on theri own or not interested in the team and you will not last.

Ive played a few versus servers where we have 8 OCUK guys on and its been fantastic fun, even when one team seems to be having the edge with regular tank spawns etc its great to see how a team who is getting dominated can still pick them selves up with teamwork and grind their way through a level.

For me th enormal difficulty in versus will just make games longer, not necessarily worse but longer for sure, for me the worst thing about normal is the lack of hordes. If a boomer gets you you should be panicking about the horde coming, not sitting with the melee button to swipe away the half dozen zombies.

yeah just played boomed all 4 :) but didn't get the achievment :/ no hordes showed up maybe 3-4 which makes it boring as hell being infected..
 
Great game neoreloaded,markopolo and pookie bear on versus.

Normal has really changed versus up. We mananged to escape on both no mercy and blood harvest. Its all about team work with the infected now.
 
I will be on in a bit after i finish cooking/eating my curry :D.

Am looking at about a 7:30pm start at the latest with a TBC finish time :). If i am on anyone's friends list then give me an invite and if i am about then i will be well up for it.
 
I love how the autoupdate feature doesn't work for servers.

I thought I'd applied the unofficial fix for that too, but obviously not :/

*manually updates 4 srcds installs*

why is one of the servers sometimes in vs mode sometimes in campaign? :confused:

Because anyone can callvote the server to whatever mode they like if they know the commands - or a lobby can find one of my servers empty and then switch it to campaign mode.

It's highly annoying and I'm not really sure how to prevent it happening (or if I want to).

The Vs server at least will reset back to Vs mode after a period of inactivity (I think).
 
anyone noticed since the updates there are a load of zombies who just float about, some just stand there not attacking nor can they be killed?
 
didnt notice that but myself, rob, niel and pookie had a go at dead air on expert last night and the amount of boss infected since this new update is unreal.

Not so much tanks but in one map we seen maybe 15 smokers, hunters and boomers.

Itmade expert even more of a challenge :)

Also valve seemed to have ramped up pookies laughter to the utmost levels :D

I tried dead air on expert yesterday and it seemed quite hard. Loads of smokers and hunters all over the place.

Good game sharpy. :D

They have defiantly changed the difficulty in the game when playing expert. Every corner we turned round last night had a boss infected waiting for us.
