I picked up the M60 and started blasting away at the horde. It was awesome, I felt like rambo just mowing down the zombies. Then we opened the gate and ran along the narrow walk way in the sewer till I ran low on ammo.

I ran back to the ammo cache without my teammates, thinking I could handle myself with the m60. They were like "wtf are you doin!" and I was like "I know what im doin" By the time I got to the cache I ran out of ammo and the m60 popped out of my hand. Then the horde music plays on. :facewall:

I seriously did not know that weapon could not be reloaded. I guess I should of read more about the update before playing it.
 
For me, I was playing singleplayer during the 2nd level of the passing. When I finally reached the narrow walkway crescendo event, I opened the gate thinking I had to walk across this 50 ft pool of water (that slows you down) and that's all I had to do to turn off the alarm. Unbenounced to me, there was another good 500 ft of slow trekkin' to get to the safe room. I should have saved all that ammo for the tunnel at the end :facewall:

Either way, I got through it!
 
I found a footlocker full of pipe bombs at the top of the three story building and threw them all out the windows and all around.

footlocker upon footlocker full of adrenaline shots, hmmmmmm, guess some adrenaline junkies needed to get their fix?
 
II liked the addon - It was fun.






although the game was fun and I enjoyed the random new dialouge lines

"WOO suitcase full'a money and pistols"
I have to say that I had expected much more interation with the original survivors. The simple fact that they are statically added and the only real interation with them is choreo'd -- It made me kinda sad.

That being said, this is ValVe, its not like I didn't like the add-on. The addition of the golf club was great, I love the solid metal sound it makes on a zombies head. The random caches were also fun - I'm glad that they were added to the info_weapon_spawn entity so that they are ranomly placed when the level compiles.

The addidtion of the new "uncommon common" infected is great, I've often wondered why this wasn't part of the original game. These can't be the ONLY people who are or were survivors.....

The new zombie likes to drop multiple things so killing them is a decent bonus to the game play and got me out of several sticky binds.

the story was fun but it seemed to take a little longer to actualy understand 2 things:

1. What the hell was going on
2. How the hell you were supposed to get to where you were going.

I knew I was supposed to get to the genorator for the bridge, but the path there was well - a little to obscure in my opinion. Though - I did enjoy the jazz club, the pool hall, and even the sewer area as I love playing the pitch black areas of left 4 dead.

It saddened me for about two seconds that the finale was a scavenge match, very simalar to Dead Centers finale. Though, this one was more like an actual scavenge match -- well done valVe.

Now- the peice de resistance, the M60. The gun was a great addition to the game and its achievment as well. Though, I was saddened when ammo staches did not replenish my ammo for it. It was great to destroy zombies with a high powered Machine gun the likes of which valve has only introduced in TF2 with the heavy or in DoD:s with the MG classes.

All in All I'll give the addon [85/100]
that translates to

[9/10]
[22/25]
[38/50]

roughly what i would use on those scales, those are not the actual mathematical translations.
 
personally i love this, the dialogue is epic especially between nick and ellis and Francis and Nick at the end once just cracked me up:

"WITCH! oh wait, sorry, you confused me with all your crying!"

as for the M60, its hilarious fun, i just went onto the last map of the passing turned on cheats spawned a stockpile of M60s and went mono-e-mono with 5 tanks (i kicked the other survivors) lets just say that god mode helped :)

however the M60's main drawback is that it only has 150 shots, i mean...well yeah it keeps the survivor from going super crazy but not being able to get more ammo for it, haveing maybe 1 or 2 in the campaign, and the fact that 263 shots (approximately, i was left with around 40 after doing a tank 1v1 with the thing, and used 2 guns) are needed to kill a tank, really doesn't help, all this conspires to people hanging desprately on to the fun little gun which causes them to have problems with practically loseing one gun.

i would suggest to Valve that they add either: double the bullet carrying for the gun (300 rounds)

or: allow us to carry a second clip on the gun.

i dont want to get more ammo from stockpiles, its like a grenade launcher, you get what you get, but it just seems to need...more to me
 
At the sewer gauntlet people thought the bridge was going to raise up and we had to wait for it. Finally we were like "oh crap, we need to run", but one guy didn't catch that, and was attacked by a smoker when everyone else ran away. I ran back, saved him, and we all made it to the end. It was pretty awesome.

Still hoping for a pool cue weapon.

hmmmmmm and maybe a campaign where you have to make your way thru to a rescue point at a pub perhaps? called the Winchester? where ellis tells nick, "you've got red on you", that would be awesome!!!
 
lol, leeroy jenkins-ing to the second safe room :P. Once the panic event started I jumped down, on the way down injecting my adrenaline just banzai-ing with my Benelli, grabbing another adrenaline when I got to the second half and repeating, got to the saferoom and it was over a minute after that that the rest of my team (being very pissed at me, they lost a ton of health, I lost none) all straggled in :P

Oh, and I started the jukebox startling the witch, I sat there standing still watching her coming at me then... at last second... I crowned her, to the sound of me yelling "BOOOM, HEADSHOT"

Oh, those were both from my second playthrough of it, and it was on expert :)

Knew that someone was gonna die and knew that Bill was it. Liked the golf club and ran really far ahead and protected myself till my party found me. The wedding scene freaked me out a bit so i just burned the place.
 
The end was the best...One of the 2 tanks spawned like right next to me and I got killed XD..
 
I tortured myself with endless Mutation games
win or not, still had fun doing it

yeah, the realism versus mode is really intense, makes it harder as a survivor but lots of fun, cant wait to see what the next mutations are in store for us.
