Title: For one night only....!!!
Post by: Sn00ks on June 30, 2010, 06:58:31 PM
..well maybe more than one but we'll see.

Get this map http://www.ihatemountains.com/download/
and we'll have ourselves a retro-night to remind ourselves how good L4D is compared to L4D2. :D

If there's not enough people with this map then we will swap to L4D2.

So get it now!

Kick off time is about 8-ish.

In the great fashion of DFS, we will be extending this offer for another week.

Get downloading it ladies, last nights Admin forage in the mountains was very promising and made us remember what was missing from L4D2, atmosphere.

Versus looks like it might be FUN!

That was good that! Old school, more atmospheric, harder and less cartoony. Even I enjoyed it whilst you lot refused to play as a team and hung back just to make me look like a lone wolf!  :doh:

I should be around, I woulda been on last week, but with the bc2 patch out that day I figured I really should be playing that.

Come on girls show us your mettle!
Or are zombies in the dark too scary for you?  
Do you prefer yours to be cartoony representations in a brightly lit environment?

It is a very good versus map, especially the second level. The first is more of a warm up and quite straight-forward.
 
Survivors have to either take a gamble with a shorter route by going out the hole in the wall and over the roofs, but this leave the risk of some getting hung up/trapped when the rest of the team have jumped/fallen off, with very little hope of rescue.
Which seemed to happen last night, much to the chagrin of the team.
 
Or the alternative is to fight your way back down through the house and out the garage or front-door.
 
A well organised tight-knit team should be able to fight their way through the house. But I can't recall ever seeing one of those on our server?

We were tight knit until a map flaw stopped me pressing the flare....

I would have made it, it's you three lone wolves that ruined it, lone wolfing behind me as a group :blink:
