    Really fun PA vs game just now with all sorts of PA guys. It was uneven, and for that I'm sorry, but I had a good time, and I hope the other team did too.

    I had a decent time until I was completely raped as a tank /twice/ on nm5.

    You guys didn't want my hugs :(

    PA games usually have their share of team killing and/or bad players but... it usually results in hilarity.

    One of these days, I'll remember to go into Armadeaddon chat and have everyone join Duke's server. I'm pretty sure the two "halves" of PA playing together will result in L4D imploding... but that happens alot with me anyway.

    No seriously. I gotta upload that video of when we blew up so many propane tanks and pipe bombs that the elevator disappeared.

    EDIT: fuck. I guess there was an update since then. I can't access the demo.

    Uhm, your sig is a bit big there Madalore.

    Edit: They're up to number 6?!? Do they just churn out one a week or something?

    It almost seems like it! Someone linked me a pic of the next left 4 head. It stars a tank. A tank and a boomer. D:

    "It slimed me!"

    So... is this the one for the homosexual crowd?
    I'll be around if you need help with the new vid.

    I enjoyed just making my presence known as a hunter, but not really doing anything about it; pouncing straight up just to say hello over and over is quite fun.

    You were very hard to hit as an incapped survivor. Damn hoping in and out of my crazy reticule

    So according to Kotaku, one of the five new campaigns is called Swamp Fever: http://kotaku.com/5312162/valve-brings-left-4-dead-2-to-comic+con-reveals-swamp-fever

    Also in another article, Doug mentions that they're looking into possibly setting it up so L4D1 and L4D2 can play together.

    They're supposed to show off a couple new weapons, and if anyone is going to the San Diego comicon, L4D2 is supposed to be playable there.

    I would <3 them forever if l4d2 would act as an expansion pack once installed. I'm way past the idea of being frustrated that its 50 dollars. I just want it to be convenient now.


    Also, we had a hilariously awful game of expert tonight.

    First, Zombie Monkey tried to set off the event on DA2 all by himself. It didn't go too well

    Then, after a few shots to the head, Soul Gate thought he was swan.

    Never get between a man and his pills.

    Then... this
    l4d_airport03_garage0027.jpg

    Suddenly, SG gets an idea.

    He makes a run for it.

    oh....

    ouch.

    Well, second time is the charm, right?
    l4d_airport03_garage0030.jpg
    Oh.

    Then, I decide to have a go at it.
    l4d_airport03_garage0037.jpg

    This is the first campaign I've played where I've been forced to kill someone so I can get my pills I rightfully deserved. I know I saw them first!

    We also learned you can't get past the DA3 panic event on expert by yourself. If someone can though, I'd love to see some pics of it!

    It's the high pitch screeching of the crane that starts the horde coming. Its the same reason why the infected go after the pipe bombs.

    The crane I get, but its the finales that get me.

    Player: Hey, send help.

    Radio: Ok, ETA: whatever.

    None of this is particularly loud, Dead Air I get because of the fuel truck rumbling, but for the rest its like the infected have radio antennas in their heads.

    "OH SHIT, THE FOODS TRYING TO GET AWAY"

    Remember kids, blowing up a couple gas cans near the contruction site (DA2?) is really loud and send two waves of hordes. Blowing up an entire gas station in NM3? Not so much.

    The gas station should really act like a car alarm so people try not to blow it up.

    It was good to see you made it in the chat, even if it was for a little while. Players do fluctuate- some days no one plays l4d at all and Amedeadon is more like a chat room. Other days we get full pa games going constantly. It's a bit of luck mixed in with a bit of people skills aka begging.

    Never, under any circumstances, even think about watching a youtube video in the steam browser. I merely glanced at one while playing with buster, tongue, and m4v1s and it started playing as if it knew what i wanted. However, it dropped my fps to 2, stole my overlay, and refused to stop!

    Nothing is worse than being in the middle of a stomp and hearing the ghostly screams of a dying zoey when you are zoey.
    .
    it was horrible :(

    Protecting survivors as tank is quite fun. I had (can't remember if it was mandalore or asiina) protect me during a pubstomp where I was the 5th wheel on the roof of the house in BH for about 5 minutes. Which also happened to be much longer than the other 3 survivors stayed...

    I've had that happen to me when I was on the infected team (not playing as tank). As a smoker, I was able to pull the survivor next to a cliff. The tank then comes over to try to free his friend, but instead sends him flying over the edge of the cliff.

    Actually he managed to protect that one Guy the entire map of NM2. without accidently knocking him out. If anything that's tank skill.

    Although I was also hoping for a Bioshock map in L4D, but that would be TONS of work.
