Left4Dead 2

    That ain't got sort it in an online game because it requires sv_cheats. The best way to get freed is to get charged or hit by some other special infected -- that sometimes frees the character.

    Yeah, happened to me and a mate playing VS the other day. Asked the other team to charge the stuck palyer to free him, instead they just picked the rest of us off and then killed him, probably because we were kicking their collective asses . Even admin slap wouldn't free the guy.

    Ah okay. I just wondered if there was some trick to get out. So if it happens in an online game people don't make fun of me for failing Thanks.

    Yeah it's a shitty bug and needs to be fixed, it has only happened 3 times in the 20+ hours I have played so I guess it is hard to track down

    I've had no issues with difficulty. They all must suck horribly.

    I've completed every campaign except Swamp Fever with average players with less than two retries. Usually only one or none.

    Oi! I've found their problem.

    To make sure I wasn't somehow cursed; that AI Director 2.0 didn't just have it out for me personally, I played the game both pre- and post-release with six different gamers, all of whom had experienced the original (and some of whom were really good at it).

    That's probably because ALL SIX OF THESE 'GAMERS' NEED TO GET WITH THE TIMES, AND STOP USING OLD TACTICS. If you use the same tactics from L4D1 of course you're gonna get owned, that's the entire idea here is to add new gameplay tactics to change it up.

    Christ that's like building a bomb and seeing it doesn't work, so in the second version you use the same tactics to build it even though you know it won't work.

    Were you playing on PC, Lord Ned? Cause the gamers with jobs cast also said they had no problems, and the reviewer said he played the PC version (in bootcamp on his mac of course ) and had a much easier time, even though he wasn't used to mouse control.

    Yeah. However L4D is more designed to be a console game so I don't see why Valve would have made it super hard.

    Uh, my friends and I played a couple of campaigns on advanced and made it without dying or getting incapped much either -- it's not hard. So, either the 360 version is buggered or their review is way off kilter.

    i played through one of the campaigns yesterday on realism/normal, and i've gotta say, i'm far from impressed. apart from the new materials, the few extra special infected, it's basically the same game as the first one. maybe it's just not my type of game, but i definitely do not see myself shelling out money for an entire new game to get just this.

    I'm actually curious as to who here plays which version (PC or 360). My sense is most people played the PC version, but would love to know the proportion. Guess I should start a pole :role:
