Flippy, you were on Subway in a full game for like a full hour last night. The heck were you doing, standing perfectly still and popping zombie heads while softly giggling to yourself?
I would've hung around longer but then I discovered how NyQuil cures colds (to wit, you can't feel a stuffy nose if you're not conscious).

I too am a sucker for female protagonists. Zoey reminds me a lot of Claire from Resident Evil. I kinda feel like I'm her brother, keeping her teenangst.wav in check.
Louis screams the loudest, so when you get pulled off into the distance by a smoker there is more of a chance of your buddies hearing and helping you out.
if they were true rage zombies (like in the movies) no one would be able to beat this game
I am constantly covered in blood and the zombies usually get close to me all the time. In the movies, if you get any part of the zombie in your system, you get converted into an infected in like, 10 seconds.
These are somekind of mix between traditional zombie and rage zombie
Not entirely true. It seems that the survivors just happen to be immune to the infection, possibly by some genetic fluke, or by having a tough as nails immune system.
I believe I remember reading way back that this is the case. All the survivors are such because the disease doesn't affect them.
I'm mostly partial to Bill (grizzled old vet, which is what I'm starting to feel like these days amongst this fresh crop of whipper snapper gamers) and Frances (mostly because (I think) he has clear influences from Jayne of Firefly fame).
Another thing I really like is how well fleshed out all the characters feel. I don't mind playing any of them for that reason, but if given the chance to choose, it's usually Bill or Frances.

First they came for the Muslims, and we said NOT TODAY, MOTHERFUCKER!

So many times in online games I think to myself "what are these guys DOING?" and then I realize that they act like this because they haven't been doing this shit for the last 10 years.

That right there has just made Frances my favorite.

And the perfect mod would be a pack of well-edited Jayne clips.
Hell, Valve had Adam Baldwin for a voice in Episode 2. Should've just called him back for Francis.
This is where someone tells me they did, and I pre-order L4D tonight.

Popular film and television actor Adam Baldwin (Angel, Firefly) voices several of the civilian and rebel NPCs, most notably the character who informs the player of the Striders' locations in the penultimate chapter.[20]

He was also one of the guest voices in Halo 3 (along with Katee 'Starbuck' Sackhoff and Jonathan 'I didn't like working anyway' Ross, and a few others too).
But that's for another discussion and thread.
Basically he's doing voice acting in games, a Valve game no less, dude needs to voice Francis.

I think he was joking. The portable Bofors cannon was rumoured by some people to be one of the unlockable weapons for the Heavy before the Heavy Updated came out.

Would be cool if Valve released some official alternate costumes for each of the characters.
this fits you SO well flippy:

Boy, that sure didn't take long
OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO! OOOH! OH NO!

Zoey is a cute girl who's deadly accurate with a rifle and has a burning hatred for the undead.
How could you not like her, Flippy?
Can trade TF2 items or whatever else you're interested in. PM me.

Ugh Zzulu was spamming this for an entire game
Still, good stuff

And that is Francis
Whom Bill mourns the death of by saying "I'm gonna miss that man and his gun."
No way, Francis rocks. He acts the tough guy but then gets all dainty whenever he finds a thing.
"HURRY UP OLD MAN YOU'RE WASTIN' OUR- ooooh, this might come in handy."
If she preferred the shotgun.
It's funny when he gets attacked whilst he's down. Despite the tough biker exterior he screams like he's Homer Simpson.
Although in a way, that actually makes me like his character more. He's not just the complete "hard man" archetype.
I live in a building with a lot of hallways...and dark niches....and more hallways. Goddamn I'm such a chicken.

this only makes the game better
Everyone screams like a girl when someone is trying to eat their flesh.
Would you believe that was not a meaning I had in mind when I wrote that sentence?
Perhaps "Tough Guy" would've been (marginally) better.

Francis is the only one MAN enough to show when he's scared.

It doesn't help that my gf has seen me playing the game and mimics the damn Witch crying when I'm on the phone with her...
god i love that woman...but that's just mean.

wait, what?
He's just awesome.
For the campaign finales.
I am wetting my pants.

Wow, i did not know that.
