Re: The Official LEFT 4 DEAD 2 thread (UPDATE: "The Passing" in March + More!)

I thought you get to choose who dies?

Not to mention stupid. He STILL thinks they're vampires. xD

I played a campaign of No Mercy on advanced earlier. Francis kept stealing all the pills, then immediately taking them, regardless of health.

After he took his pills, then grabbed pills I needed, I'd had enough. I gunned him down right there and picked my pills from his body... Jerkface!

EDIT (To clarify about the original L4D1 character who dies....)
I found this while doing a bit of research on The Passing, not sure how reliable it is.
[quote author=Big Downloads] Everyone that wants to be here ready? Ok then. Again as revealed by GameTrailers TV, the previously unannounced tagline for The Passing is "Nobody Survives Forever" That refers to the fact that the Left 4 Dead 2 cast only interacts with THREE members of the Left 4 Dead 1 group in the expansion. Yep, that means a major cast member of the original game is ALREADY DEAD when The Passing starts.

But that's not all. Valve has already announced that there will also be a new Left 4 Dead 1 mini-expansion that will come out later this year. That expansion will actually tell the story on how that character (who has not yet been revealed) dies before The Passing begins.That means if you play that expansion with three of your buddies the person who controls that particular character will have to sacrifice him or herself. Interesting.

Not sure how that would work though, because that means only 3 of the original survivors would be in L4D2, but if you get to pick who dies, how will that translate over?
 
Re: The Official LEFT 4 DEAD 2 thread (UPDATE: "The Passing" in March + More!)

We're not exactly used to finding out hot scoops on Valve's game projects from Xbox Live's "Inside Xbox" feature "SENTUAMESSAGE," so it was especially odd to us when we heard that Left 4 Dead 2's upcoming Left 4 Dead 1 crossover DLC "The Passing" got an official price (560/$7) -- and an ambiguous new release date of "Spring" -- from the feature. But that's just what the latest episode told us, not to mention a handful of new deets on the DLC, including info on new variations of enemies and a few new weapons.

Back at X10 in February, Valve told us that the content was set to arrive on Xbox Live/Steam by "late March," though it seems that the window has been extended a few more months. We've fired off an email to Valve to see if a more solid release date exists, and we'll keep you updated if we hear anything back. In the meantime, we've embedded the Inside Xbox clip after the break.

Re: The Official LEFT 4 DEAD 2 thread (UPDATE: "The Passing" pushed back to April)

Why does it have to be a L4D1 guy who dies?
 
Re: The Official LEFT 4 DEAD 2 thread (UPDATE: "The Passing" pushed back to April)

Celebrating the pending release of "The Passing" and the Left 4 Dead 1 and Left 4 Dead 2 teams colliding, we have a few other world colliding events to announce.

First up, the Midnight Riders collide with Rock Band. The gang over at Harmonix have released two Midnight Riders's songs for Rock Band! You can check them out here and download them in game to play in the comfort of your own home. "The Passing" will feature a brand new slow power ballad; "Save Me Some Sugar".

What happens when a 1939 film classic collides with Left 4 Dead? Check out Agnostes' awesome Left 4 Dead campaign poster he made for a Wizard of Oz concept art contest to find out.

What happens when Half-Life 2: Episode one collides with Left 4 Dead 2? Mixmedia's City 17. Alyx would be proud.


What about TF2 and L4D2 colliding? That would be Jsparakov's Badwater Basin map. And for worlds colliding into worlds colliding, check-out TF2's and Sam & Max's collision currently going on.

So enough worlds colliding, when is "The Passing" coming out? Well... if it was coming out next week we would say right here - Left 4 Dead 2's The Passing is coming out next week and we will be updating the blog next week with more news on the release. There you go.

Re: The Official LEFT 4 DEAD 2 thread (UPDATE: "The Passing" released NEXT WEEK!!)

While confirming a Thursday release date for Left 4 Dead 2's "The Passing" downloadable content, Valve also reveals "Mutations," featuring more than 20 new game modes rotated on a weekly basis, from "Realism Versus" to "Chainsaw Massacre."

It's official: Left 4 Dead 2's The Passing will be out on Thursday, April 22 for the Xbox 360 and PC, and it's much more than a new episode, new infected, and a couple of new weapons. According to Valve, The Passing will also include a brand new way to play the game that'll keep players coming back every week for more.

"Mutations," are a series of new game types that Valve will be cycling in and out of the game on a weekly basis. There are more than 20 different "Mutations" planned, including the aforementioned "Chainsaw Massacre," which arms players with chainsaws and an unlimited supply of gasoline.

Now that's my kind of zombie slaughter right there.

All new game modes will be playable on any of Left 4 Dead 2 campaigns, and will be exclusive to players that have purchased The Passing downloadable content.

Purchased being a relative term, of course. Xbox 360 players can expect to pay 560 Microsoft points ($7) for The Passing, while PC players can purchase it for completely free, which I suppose doesn't count as purchasing it at all.

Say WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAT!? O.O
