***OFFICAL*** Left 4 Dead Thread!

is the demo for left 4 dead not available? i cant seem to find it on steam, or maybe it's hidden away?

Unless they have added the demo again since release, you will not be able to get a demo. There was a demo shortly before the game was released, but when the game hit the shelves the demo was stopped.
 
Also, Buckz/Grudas seems to be in a spot of bother every time he's Louis!

:D

That was pretty funny. That was me as the boomer, spawned badly and had to run as fast as my tubby legs would carry me to the APC but didn't get to spew on you guys in time.

Would have preferred more mic talking in that game though.
 
There were three on the server when I played. None of them gave a good impression. I had one on my team who kept running off and another two against me, who were also cack.

Talking about rubbish plaers, there was one specific french player over the weekend who in the first level ran solo (not helping any of his team) to the safe room and stayed there, door shut, even to the point of his teammates being right outside his door, all dying and he made no attempt to help. So we killed all three. He later had the cheek to comment upon out team not working as a team when one died (I was boomered and surrounded and one got hunter-killed). I just answered that it was a rich phrase coming from him. He shut up after that.
 
Just had this in an email from Chet wherein we were discussing the current disparity between survivor team and infected team on how much they each relied on voice-comms to be effective (i.e. the reason I ended up coding that Infected HUD). His response:

That's very interesting, yes :) Will be nice to be tempted back into play again - I'm a bit bored of the current Vs maps atm.
 
Keep an eye on it on evenings when people get back from work. There are people on them quite frequently.

I also recommend using HLSW and adding the servers to that - far easier to keep an eye on things.
 
Had my first random game of VS in a long time (was bored for 30mins) last night.

My god, against a team of lamers with some guy called "Pierre" using every exploit known. Cheating doors, melee scripts and spawning loads of hunters on NM4 and NM5 were some highlights.

What made me laugh is that my team were noobs, didn't know what was going on and yet we STILL beat them on NM4 by getting to the door (after killing about 200 hunters and having no ammo left).

After abusing them upon winning NM4 (even though they cheated) they really must have got annoyed because they kept on the exploiting until the end of the game and then were even trying to get my team to RQ. They failed, think that wound them up the most! :D

I really do hate randoms/kids online but the best way to deal with them is show no loss of control/emotion and beat them fairly. (Or just play with people you know :D)

At the end of it all, I actually found it rather entertaining!
 
Anybody new that hasn't done so yet, don't forget to join the OCUK Left4Dead Steam group:

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/OCUKLeft4Dead/

Once you're a member, the OCUK L4D servers will show up in game for you (and if you check the news page you can find out info about the various modes and mods the servers are running).

Just joined but I haven't got a clue what I'm doing.

Was that on the OCUK servers? If so, the spawning infected exploit should've been fixed by a sourcemod plugin I installed. I'll have to re-look at the issue if not.

The people I've given admin to on the servers are well within their powers/rights to ban people that act up in this way.
