Pantsu Man! Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Very, very awesome. I didn't think the first had been out long enough for a second to have been announced but, hopefully they'll have more levels and more weapons.
Babooo Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Looked awesome.....still have to try out the first title, which i will do this summer!
Dyson Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Loved the brief look at the new characters! And chainsaws - fucking win.
Coolness Bears Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 The first is one of my favourite Xbox games. This looks ace. Chainsaws? hell yeah!
Shino Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 I really hope this was just courtesy from Valve for the good sales, and not really an exclusive.
Cube Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) I really hope this was just courtesy from Valve for the good sales, and not really an exclusive. The trailer said it was exclusive to 360 and PC . Edit: I think. Edited June 1, 2009 by Cube
Aimless Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 This seems way too soon to me. This might seem strange, but the fact it's a sequel and not expansive DLC has made it hard for me to get enthusiastic about it. They spent ages tuning all the original L4D maps and mechanics, and now they're putting out an entire sequel within a year? This is just very un-Valve.
Nami Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Do you know a rough out line of the story or is it just following some other survivors? I'm well excited about this too it feels pretty quick to me too but I only just finnished the first about 4 months ago, good timing!
That Guy Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 This seems way too soon to me. This might seem strange, but the fact it's a sequel and not expansive DLC has made it hard for me to get enthusiastic about it. They spent ages tuning all the original L4D maps and mechanics, and now they're putting out an entire sequel within a year? This is just very un-Valve. Yeah this is what I was thinking when originally wondering if it was L4D2. Not that it seems too soon for another one, cos I really want one, just that I'm wondering how another one can only take a year to get as good as the last was.
Guest Maase Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 I also believe its way too soon. I seriously expect Valve to keep making DLC to Left 4 Dead, because... really... I want to juice a little more on No Mercy and Death Toll ;___;
McPhee Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Yeah this is what I was thinking when originally wondering if it was L4D2. Not that it seems too soon for another one, cos I really want one, just that I'm wondering how another one can only take a year to get as good as the last was. I'd assume was originally intended to be DLC. I can't really fault Valve for turning it in to a retail game though after all the free content they've churned out for their games over the years. Maybe HL2 EP3 isn't coming along as fast as expected and they need a cash boost? Or maybe they figure heavily supporting TF2 and L4D with free updates at the same time just wasn't financially viable. I know i'd rather have a L4D sequel than TF3, there'd be little point or value in the latter.
LegoMan1031 Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 oh yeah!!!! Like others im suprised they releasing a new one so soon but i ent goin to complain! yay!!
Wesley Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 This was probably the biggest surprise for me. I knew it was talked about coming up to E3, but I didn't think it'd happen with the first being pretty young on the market.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I was hoping that Valve would simply keep adding more dlc to L4D, rather than making us pay for a new game. Where's Episode Three?!!!
Coolness Bears Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Exactly what I thought when I saw the picture! SOLD!
McPhee Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Dunno why, but the guy in the suit looks a bit like Tim Roth to me. Pretty awesome looking cast, though i can see the suit guy being the most popular (just like Bill is in the first one).
gaggle64 Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Interesting. I think I'll still be suckling the first one dry by the time this comes out though.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Right, no Episode 3 at E3, and Valve give us this crap. Valve can now officially go and fuck themselves.
