Left 4 Dead

[Vykromond]

All fields of the standard model and gravity are united as an E8 principal bundle
connection. A non-compact real form of the E8 Lie algebra has G2 and F4 subalgebras which
break down to strong su(3), electroweak su(2) x u(1), gravitational so(3,1), the frame-Higgs,
and three generations of fermions related by triality. The interactions and dynamics of these
1-form and Grassmann valued parts of an E8 superconnection are described by the curvature
and action over a four dimensional base manifold.

I've just played the realize with to friends for three hours straight, and I fucking love this game. I just love the zombies. When you move around they'll look different depending on where you are, at the airport you get fucking pilot zombies attacking you! I think I can say that this is the best fucking fps game I've played since Duke Nukem 3D!

Only drawbacks is stuff that can be added later, which is how you need to make games with the cutthroat deadlines that game developers has to make. I've only found 6 different weapons so far, 2 different thrown explosives and your basic gun can only be upgraded with another gun of the same time. This is too little, but Valve should have no problems adding more in the future. However I've found 3 different environmental explosives that you can use in almost an infinite number of ways, this balances out the lack of main weaponry somewhat. Second drawback is that there's only 4 levels, and when the game is this awesome you tear through levels super fast. I played the one from the demo already, and then I did two of the others today. Again, I want to applaud Valve for polishing the gameplay and the zombies instead of throwing a bunch of weapons into a useless game.

Royce you are a fucking tool and you need to get your head out of your ass. Complaining about the lack of AI in a zombie game is just mindbogglingly stupid. They are fucking zombies with NO BRAINS. How can something that has no intellect have an artificial one? Zombies doesn't fucking crouch behind a rock when they get shot at. However Valve actually has managed to throw in a clever AI anyway. They move in a very natural way and they spawn in good locations. Like they will almost never spawn so they run into a minigun position. The zombies will wait to the minigun position is overrun from the sides before attacking head on in most cases. There's also 4 different boss zombies that has a good AI. There's one that stands at range and throws its tongue at you, and then drags you to it so it can kill you. This motherfucker is smart as fuck. It actually stood behind a patch of fire in a hole in the wall that was hard to notice and dragged me into the flames while it killed me. I died in about 5 seconds from that.

Difficulty wise this game is excellent. The three of us struggled on Advanced with a bot on our team that played decently (actually amazing for a bot). The reason why we actually did quite well was because that we've played alot with eachother and thanks to the excellent built in team speak the teamwork got so much tighter. Expert is close to impossible without 4 experienced players on all with a mic communicating through the entire game.

I only got to test the versus mode for 20 mins before my friends were ready for the coop game, but from what I've experienced it was awesome. You play either as one of the four survivors, or as one of the four boss zombies. You can't choose which zombie to play, and the game tries to switch the roles as often as possible. I really like that so nobody can hog a certain boss type. It was much harder to play as the zombies than I expected, which is a good thing. The AI at Advanced difficulty did a much better job than anyone in Versus did, which speaks alot for the brilliant AI implemented in this game.
10/10, will play again about a million times. Epic, epic win.

Yeah the game looks really good. Haven't had a chance to play it yet, though. So is it much better than, say, Resident Evil's zombies? = )

[Epinephrine]

Left 4 Dead is pretty awesome. Great game, been playing it for a while now. You know it's good when, you're playing Gears of War 2, and you wish it were more like Left4Dead.
