What difficulty are you guys playing on? I find that on Expert there is more than enough zombie going around. More than there should be in fact. The only time I shot my friend in the face with a shotgun was when they all started pushing me around. Well also the time I tked him so that I could pass the level sooner without having to wait for him to die outside the safe room...

P.S. So I heard rumors that recreating any geographically correct locations can get you in a decent amount of trouble since it might count as a "terrorist" attempted attack. Anyone hear anythign about this? I'm dying to start shooting zombies on campus.

Oh there is plenty of zombies...but after a while, zombies don't really pack any punch. They don't really have weight (other than those big guys and hunters) and shoowing them by the 1000s feels unsatisfying compared to shooting a human player once and him saying "hey...cut it out!" :) 

My favourite part was when one dude got sprayed on by those fat zombies(which attracts zombies to him)...and he got swarmed by 50 zombies. I waited till hes almost dead, and then helped him...but then I killed him anyways. LOL.

 

 

On Expert the fodder zombies hits take 20 dmg each.

The hutners take 20 per swipe (i think) and the smokers do 15 per tick (again, i think). Won't bother even mentioning the tanks. IT"S SRS BIZNES!

Yea ^^ I've had a few rounds where we slip up for just a moment and our whole team is wiped out in under 10 seconds. Sometimes you just get the most vicious zombie combos.

When all 3 bosses strike at the same time.... That's when real teamwork shines.

Yeah, don't underestimate the regular horde on Expert. I seriously doubt anybody here is a pro on Expert yet. I can win most of the time, but it's usually very long and grueling, because we have to make sure we take out every zombie, usually from far if we can.

If you get swarmed and don't shoot or melee them off right away, it's 20 HP per hit, so 5 hits from regular zombies and you're down...crazy.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

At the end, all depends if u are playing with IA ally or noob or progamer ...

My Xbox connection likes to cut out, so it took a while to download. I played through the demo as Zoey, did pretty well. Pretty enjoyable. Also, it was fun when I'd be peeking out a window, blasting zombies at a distance, when suddenly a zombie would cut the corner around the window and jump right at my face. Man, that made me jump.

I haven't played it on my PC yet, but I've got it available. If I liked it on my 360, though, then the PC edition's gonna be sweet.
