22m overdue :roflmao:

No sign as yet so ... same time tomorrow? GN.

T-Bag · October 28, 2009, 11:02:37 PM

Nearly l33t overdue.

(which in this case I'm taking to be 1h 3m 37s because I think they'll change the timer before 13hours.)

Ooh, just closing down the PC and noticed it's active now!

Will set up my keys and screen and sign off.

Game has moved into the ready section but shows as unavailable. I guess it's getting hammered. I'll try tomorrow.

Did that to me as well, just stop/restart Steam.

Then grab a cup of tea while it decrypts the files.

Ooh, Spitters (spits and explodes acid), Jockeys (jump on your back), Chargers (does something or other) and a few new standard zombies, such as riot police with body armour.

Picking up a frying pan as a weapon will drop your pistols/magnum.

And it's set in the daylight.

I'll leave it after 5 minutes and get some rest.

It's still getting hammered.

I got the files to decrypt by launching steam with the region set as "africa"

Well....it's alright. Feels very consoley. I'm sure our resident tester will be along soon....

cue GhostMjr:D

It seems alright. The new models aren't bad. Not sure about the new specials yet. I guess I won't know till I've played against people with them.

Was shocked to see a female boomer. The new weapons are hit and miss. I don't see why anyone would pick up the frying pan or guitar as they don't seem that powerful, but some are alright.

She's called a 'Spitter' and spits acid, when she explodes she leaves acid all over the floor for a period of time.

Spitter
Jockey
Charger

New common infected as well

DarkAngel · October 29, 2009, 04:04:02 PM

Clown Infected

:roflmao: Clown zombies could it get any better?

Off to play some now :yahoo:

Liberator · October 29, 2009, 04:40:00 PM

Clowns

Quote from: Them links aboveWhen they spot Survivors they will charge, calling other Infected in with their noisy, squeaky shoes for an attack.

Quote from: Them links above againAccording to a list of Left 4 Dead 2 achievements, the survivors can 'honk its nose,' although how this is done is unknown,

Honk honk

Nah, she exploded like a boomer. Pop and bile no acid. I might have miss saw, but I'm 90% sure it was female, though the models are a bit different (eg smoker in a white t-shirt) it could just have been an illusion.

DarkAngel · October 29, 2009, 06:02:26 PM

Just played it, its not very long but a lot of fun. Shame we cant play versus in the demo, but ill never get bored of hiting zombies with frying pans and electric guitars.

So far looks awesome, having riot police with bullet proof vests is not nice

, just over 2 weeks and we can play the full version :woot2:
