Re: Left 4 Dead

Initial impressions after one movie/level/chapter is that I'd give this somewhere between 5.4 and 6.2 and it's the best thing with Valve's name on it. Wich reminds me I should DL the Portal trial from XBLA. If the teammate AI was as good as COD 4's then this might be in the 7-8 range but it's terrible even on easy,it's some of the worst I've ever seen. It'd be pretty impressive if anyone managed to make it through this on expert with AI teammates,it'd also be impressive if anyone was the one to take the least ammount of damange because they never ever go ahead wich leaves you the first be attacked. One fine example of teammate ineptness is how the zombies can understand "I'm reloading" and run at you then but the rest of your team just stands there. The only time they were close to even being acceptable was the finale of the first movie. Though now I remember the hold push button pretty much being an invincible cheat so I guess I'll try that and no I don't have the patch.

If I stop in a safe room does the game save there? I just left it on pause the two times I had other stuff to do. Are you just supposed to select it from the main menu when you start playing again?

Re: Left 4 Dead

Pretty sure there is no where to save in the game.

Also, CPU AI does suck, that's why you play online with friends.

Re: Left 4 Dead

No in game saves, and this is most definitely not a single player game, Valve has said that from the very start. Meant to be played with friends.

The AI isn't too bad at helping on Expert though, on the other levels, well, with single player they are so easy anyway, so it's not a big deal. I can breeze through every level single player except expert. Seems like the more they help, the worse I do. LOL

This game is NOT a single player game. AT ALL. Its only there to learn the maps and to practice.

Single Player fun factor = 3 Multiplayer/Co-op fun factor = 10

Re: Left 4 Dead

Those mods look cool! Jealous!

I will ask/wonder how many people play each specific mod. That's one thing I don't miss from PC gaming, it always sucked to have some cool Quake mods installed but have most users just using the off the shelf stuff...With the console, it sucks to pay, but there's only one option for mods so more people are likely to have it for a great game.

Re: Left 4 Dead

If it wasn't single player it'd be like Shadowrun or Team Fortress 2 and not have single player based on the mostly poor effort made at it then it should've been left out.

Did I forget to mention the fantastic story that clearly explains why there's zombies all over the place,who all these people are and how they ended up here? What little story there is doesn't even make sense like just why what is apprently an ex army guy and biker that enjoys bar fights are letting a college student and office worker go first.
