big giant circles Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 You can really only pull it off in Hard Rain though, since there's not that many zombies once the storm hits. The director kind of put a damper in the rushing technique in L4D2. At least, it's not nearly as easy (IMO) as it was in the first one. Quote
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Everything about this game just feels bigger, better, and much more badass than Left 4 Dead. I can't find anything other than the still retarded survivor A.I. to bitch about. From the weapon to the level design, this game is probably the best of this year hands down. I must say one thing though. From what it feels like, L4D2 is to L4D like Super Street Fighter IV is to SFIV, that is, this is the game for those serious about a good, challenging time. I can't even think about playing this game with anyone who I don't have a total sense of synergy with. Casual L4D fans need not apply here. Worth every goddamn penny spent. Quote

Garian Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 I'm mostly disappointed by the fact that the survivorbots are still absolutely retarded, and that valve is still too afraid to let their characters drop the F-bomb (the lack of which kinda takes off a layer of immersion for me). Quote
atmuh Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 and that valve is still too afraid to let their characters drop the F-bomb (the lack of which kinda takes off a layer of immersion for me). funny because on the other side i like the game a lot more without that oh and from gabe himself Quote
Garian Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 ewwwww those giiiiirl zombies have koooooooooooooties Quote
The Damned Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 Grrrr, my achievements have been reset AGAIN. Four times now! Four times! I'm not bothering with this game until they fucking fix it. They add these little extra challenges, and they're fun trying to get. But where's the fun when you have to do them over and over again, only to see your accomplishments disappear every two days? Fuck this. Playing the game is fun, but getting those little extra bits is also fun. When a significant part of the fun disappears all the time, it's not a game, it's a fucking chore. Quote
Bahamut Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Jeez, the achievements keep resetting...great work there Valve. I'm just going to ignore the achievements and enjoy the game for what it is until they fix them. No biggie, but it is annoying. Quote
Bleck Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I'm just going to ignore the achievements and enjoy the game for what it is people have been saying this as if it's some sort of crime Quote

The Damned Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 No, it's like having a three layer cake. Now take one of the layers away. That's what it's like. You're missing part of the whole thing, and it's lesser than what you would like. And I swear, if one of you even begins to say anything about cakes and lies, I'm going to firebomb your house(s).

Dr. Tran! Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Achievements are going to kill gaming. : / Playing the game is fun, but getting those little extra bits is also fun So once you have them...what then? Is the game no longer fun? Most of these so-called 'achievements' you should do every time you play anyway, so. I don't know what the big effin' deal is about this. Quote
atmuh Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 its because some of them are incredibly difficult and the first time getting its fun but after that its just annoying (i know some people who got the real deal and then it got wiped) Quote
Powerlord Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 And I swear, if one of you even begins to say anything about cakes and lies, I'm going to firebomb your house(s). I'm sorry, I had to. *sets that to his TF2 spray* Quote
Dr. Tran! Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 its because some of them are incredibly difficult and the first time getting its fun but after that its just annoying (i know some people who got the real deal and then it got wiped) Why do you 'need' those achievements? Quote
atmuh Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 because it makes you feel good that you accomplished something challenging, especially if your friends are also trying to accomplish them too no recognition for something that is supposed to get recognition (an achievement) is frustrating Quote
Dr. Tran! Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 So why do you need the achievement? Shouldn't just accomplishing the hard thing be enough? Did you ever do something 'hard' in a game before this whole achievement bullshit came out and be proud of yourself for doing it? Hopefully the answer is yes, because you should be doing the same thing here. Be proud you did it, and don't make a big deal over the 'achievement' still being locked or reset or whatever. Quote
Brycepops Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 because it makes you feel good that you accomplished something challenging, especially if your friends are also trying to accomplish them toono recognition for something that is supposed to get recognition (an achievement) is frustrating I agree with this.

Bahamut Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 You don't "need" an achievement - they're nice as a more tangible form of accomplishment, but the only negative thing about achievements is if you have a negative attitude with them. I'll go for them up to a point, but I don't necessarily have to complete them (I still have 2 TF2 achievements left for example, but I don't really think about them). Quote
Dr. Tran! Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Ok. So if they're not needed, why do people make such a big deal over them? I mean, quite a few people are here in this thread raging because they're being reset. If you do not need them, why are you getting mad? That's what I don't understand. you're making a big deal over things you admittedly do NOT need. Quote
