Left 4 Dead

I was just chatting to a guy on Zombie Panic! who said he'd played it at QuakeCom or something and that it was...

"******* awesome!"
 
looks pretty good, though not sure about the super jumping zombies, think that's a bit silly really.

Also noticed they didn't show any of the seeing through walls effect I've seen in other videos. Don't know whether it's supposed to be thermal imaging goggles or something it's been in several of the vids I've seen but I don't like the idea of it.

Certain zombies can see through walls, it is so you can plan your attack and sneak up on the humans.
 
The seeing through walls is just outlining where your teammates are so that you dont get too split up. The "super jumping zombie" is a special character that can be controlled by opposing players, the average zombie does nothing of the sort.
 
It has been shown on Gamertv over the last few weeks. And it looks quite good, and very good for co-op play.

Im interested and may get this.
 
This should be quite a good game. Lot of involvement from Turtle Rock studios who developed Counter Strike Source iirc
 
It's the only Source game with the distinction that muzzle flashes light up the environment around the player firing, instead of just props and other models. That took my interest enough (yes I'm sad :p) let alone the hordes of zombies and cooperative action!
 
Getting bored of zombies but might make an exception for this one. Supposed to have a clever AI routine that sounds interesting.
 
Yeah zombie encounters are dynamic so leaves a lot of replayability, if you have a massive fight for 5mins you'll have a slight rest before the hordes find you again.
 
Zombies and coop gameplay should make for a great game, cant think of anything else im looking forward to as much as L4D.
 
Hopefully the zombies won't just stand around you waiting to be shot or some how you have super human strength and can take 8 zombies swiping at you without going down.
