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

Same as everyone else, started downloading really fast once i managed to log on to steam, now stuck on 29 seconds :p
 
Given CC a go.

It took be about 35 minutes going very slow checking every nook and cranny in campaign, so I reckon it could be anything between 25 to 45 minutes for a vs game. :)

Only two levels though. So with good teams wiping each other out it'll be a very quick vs game. :(

I thought the same. Played one locally hosted versus game (that was surprisingly playable despite our 150 pings) that lasted 25minutes for each team.

Obviously neither of us knew where to go so were hopelessly lost. A very open map, not sure at the moment if there are different routes to safe room though.

I can't say I was overly impressed !
 
My update time just keeps getting longer and longer so going to try the hong kong servers. Will have to remember when L4D2 comes out to select the Australian servers ;-)

Edit: Hong Kong works for me too not great speeds but noticeably better. Do people in Hong Kong not enjoy killing zombies or something?
 
You have to wonder why valve don't load balance their download servers, surely their IT department can see which server are and aren't getting hammered. There's little point steam using a download server that's closest to your IP if it's maxed out.
