Hello,

I was thinking about buying Left 4 Dead 2, but when i see these video's, then all i see it killing zombies full time. So i was wondering what is the meaning of this game online? (becaus I mostly dont play games offline). What is the goal when you play online?

I believe the main action of playing it online is that its like Zombie Mod. Certain players are humans who have to stay alive by all means, and there are certain players who are zombies going around killing them (after you get turned into a zombie yourself).

Please correct me if I am wrong, but this is the general understanding I got from watching my brothers play the game on the XBOX.
 
You get a gun. You shoot zombies. You survive.

At least in campaign. In Versus, You have players Playing the infected and players playing survivors.

It can be A TON of fun if you get some friends to play. There's eGO members here who play with each other nightly.
 
in l4d2 you just kill zombies thats right. on campaign mode you have to run to an escape point where youll be rescued. there are a few "challenges" during that run like press a button and fight several zombiehordes until the door opens.

another mode is versus. that means a team of humans and a team of special zombies (played by other players and not the AI) are playing against each other.

then theres survivial mode where you have to stay in an area and defend zombiehordes as long as you can.
there are a few other modes but i havent played them so you might want to ask someone else about it.

all in all l4d2 has a lot of different weapons, it has different difficulties and a few different modes. so it can be fun for a while but like inquisition said it gets repetitive.
 
I dont really like just killing zombies i think, i see many people playing it online and having fun. But i dont see whats so funny about killing groups of zombies:P Maybe for an hour but not for long.

I've chosen for Assassins Creed 2. Thanks for the reactions guys.

Thread can be closed.
 
I was thinking about playing hockey but i was wondering if i should, i see lots of people playing it but i dont know, what is the point slapping a puck around and skating around in circles? you know what i like football, maybe i will play football instead, thanks for any input guys. hahaahaha

uhm... what you mean?
 
Well, Left 4 Dead 2 isn't simply killing zombies over and over again. You could say that it is, but that'd be reducing it to a degree that isn't representative of what the game is.

You could say that every game is just a bunch of mouse clicks. What's the fun in that?

The point of the game online is trying to make it to the end of the level, and it is a blast. The fun of it is playing it with other people, trying to make it to the end and survive with them, and trying to beat the other people you're playing against.

Yes, it is a blast. But you went with Assassin's Creed 2. Pretty different choice.
 
Some people like L4D2, some dont. For me, it got kind of repetitive, because you are always going to the same place and killing roughly the same amount of zombies. Sure the AI Director mixes it up a bit, but to me it was still kind of boring after awhile. I enjoyed L4D1 a bit more because of the atmosphere.

Personally, I enjoy Killing Floor more than the L4D series, because of the tons of maps it has, plus it seems like something different could happen each time. I also liked the weapon selection more in KF.
 
is there a ego server fro left 4 dead 2?

Hey,

At the left side of the website you see "Game Server Listing", you can find all of our servers there.

And just to answer your questions right now; now we dont have any L4D2 servers:)
