Left 4 Dead 2 is a cooperative first-person shooter game. It is the sequel to the award winning Left 4 Dead. The games current release date is set for November 17, 2009, for Microsoft Window and the Xbox 360. Like the origonal, Left 4 Dead 2 takes place during the aftermath of an apocalyptic pandemic, and focuses on four survivors fighting against hordes of the infected. Several new features will be introduced, such as new types of infected, melee weapons, and a story-arc that connects each of the game's five campaigns together into one full game.

Left 4 Dead 2 features a new cast of human survivors, which will include Coach, a high-school football coach with a bad knee; Rochelle, a news reporter for a local television station; Ellis, a mechanic; and Nick, a gambler and conman. While the game was intended to be a continuation of the original, occurring a week after the first game begins, it was decided to create a new group of survivors because of the change in location. In addition to the four playable characters, Left 4 Dead 2 also features a support character in the form of Virgil, a Cajun boat captain, who appears in the game's later three chapters. This differs from the original game, where NPCs made little more than a single appearance.
L4D2 Enthusiasts [Yes-L4D2] was created so Enthusiasts looking forward to Left 4 Dead 2 could talk and get daily news updates about the game that they are looking forward to. We plan on explanding our group, by merging with The Animated Dragon Gaming Community, to create Left 4 Dead 2 servers, later upon the release of the game.

Poorly translated by Google Translator part about Dead Center.
We played right the first campaign, "Dead Center" in Coop mode. We had agreed on the Normal difficulty. If it would be too easy for us, so we could always switch to "Advanced". In Dead Center, the survivors begin on the already well known from the intro trailer roof. The map therefore plays a day and you fight, bit by bit through the city from a shopping center. For there will be a sports car that could fly with the Survivors. In the Mall (as shopping centers in the United States are usually called) arrived, one must now pave its way through the rather large building. Nice to see here, for example, that can be seen at the entrance to a building plan, where it should go is usually long. But no matter how simple it is not, of course, because it always comes back to places where the passage is blocked and you alternative ways to go. A nice place is also a toy store, in which one enters through a back entrance.
Now we have to break the shop windows come to shoot further, but so stupidly out triggers an alarm. Then you have to fight through as quickly as a few floors up in a room there to turn off the alarm. At this point, we unfortunately failed at the first attempt, but the second try it worked finally. In contrast to Left 4 Dead 1 you can put up with these "crescendo event" not just in a corner and fend off waves of zombies, but must run together to meet one another in this and switch to disable the alarm then. This much more varied and more sophisticated intermediate events have struck me very positively.
actually, the translation is by Wahey from steamforums, who was the first one to google-translate it. So, +rep him if you liked it.

You Australian? Find out how to uncensor your L4D2 Demo!
I found a tutorial on a forum on how to uncensor the Australian version of the L4D2 demo. Thanks to this man here for posting it on a forum I usuall go on: http://www.facepunch.com/member.php?u=181856
All you need to do is change TWO text files and you're set. You'll have to launch the game through the left4dead2.exe instead of through Steam. Steam will disconnect you immediately.
Find the first file called steam_appid.txt. It's located here:
\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2 demo
Open it and change 590 to 510, save it by doing Ctrl + S then close it. The next file is in: \Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2 demo\left4dead2
Look for steam.inf. Open it in Notepad and change 590 to 510. Then save the info.
REMEMBER: LAUNCH THE DEMO THROUGH THE .EXE LOCATED IN THE FOLDERS AND NOT THROUGH STEAM!

Left 4 Dead 2 Demo review
Okay, I just got back from playing the Left 4 Dead 2 Demo, and I have 4 words to say. IT-IS-THE-SHIT! The graphics were upgraded a little bit, not much, but it looks really nice, and runs really smooth. The weapon selection is a lot bigger, with a lot of new weapons, and the melee weapons are just awesome! Frying pan, machete, ELECTRIC GUITAR! I got a chance to use the AED (had to kill my own team mate to get to use it), and it's pretty cool. They also added an adrenaline needle to replace the pills. They also have a new weapons called bile, that contains vomit from a Boomer. When you throw it, it performs the same tast the the Boomer bile does in game.
The character models look nice, and the new special infected are really cool. The Hunter, Smoker, and Boomer all have updated skins, and look a lot more zombie like, and yes, there ARE female boomers.
The demo consists of 2 scenes from the Parish chapter, and they were really fun, I can't wait to play the full game.
I give this demo 5 out of 5 peelz.
If you didn't pre-order Left 4 Dead 2 already, I suggest you do it now.

Demo Information - This might calm you all down
There is a lot of commotion about what's going, I assure you that Valve is just trying to make sure this demo isn't broken when it's released. According to some connections I have and the Valve's group chat, Valve is currently play testing the Demo on different servers. I do not know the reasoning for different servers but there are a set number of play testers playing it as we speak.
From what I know, some of the play testers have finished testing. Some are STILL currently testing the game. From what I have heard from my connections, they are almost finished and once it's finished it will release.
Here's a word from Mike, the man I spoke to yesterday.
mike (3): We're making progress and hope to have some news soon.
mike (3): We're still aiming at a release today.
Everyone just chill out. Valve is just making sure the PC demo isn't broken. What would be the point in releasing a broken demo?

A quick news update on the L4D2 Demo.
Okay, no one wants to read a wall of text right now, so I'll keep this short. There have been a lot of rumors flying around the Left 4 Dead 2 forums, and most of them are just trolls. Supposivly, there is no dedicated server problem. The Left 4 Dead 2 team just decided to do some last minute (or should I say hour) game testing, and they're fixing some glitches that were included in the demo. They have said that they are trying to release the demo within the limits of today (Valve time that is). Just be calm guys, it'll be comnig soon.
WOW! A third delay!
THANK YOU VALVE! Thank you! I loved the first one SOOOO much, you gave me 2 more!
Anyway, hopefully there won't be a forth. Cross your fingers, and post your opinion on all of this.

Leaked Zombie Survival Guide does not contain cutscenes.
I think most people already noticed but a LOT of people keep talking about cut scenes in the game. They say this based on the scenes seen in the new leaked trailer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1zj3bUqs50&feature=related
Looking at the clips in the leaked trailer, it clearly shows loads of spots in the game/ chapters itself. That already proves these are not cutscenes.
Arguments: If these are all so called cutscenes, we wll see one cutscene after playing the game for 5 minutes.
- How can there be a cutscene if Maybe one character dies. if someone dies, how can there be a cutscene with the guy alive in it ?
- If the above thing would be true, that there are cutscenes, like the lcips from the leaked trailer, it would mean that IF one survivor dies, they all have to start all over again. Except if Valve made LOADS of cutscenes.
Again, I HIGHLY doubt if these cutscenes are little intro movies before each campaign. since they show areas within the campaign itself. An intro movie cant show areas that will be visited in the campaign.

"We have accomplished everything we can on our manifesto. We’ve been dealing with Valve ever since our group started, then we met them in-person and now we’re at the point of concluding our discussions. Our goal wasn’t to steer people away from L4D2, it was to get Valve’s attention and have them support original L4D. We succeeded and that’s where our mission ends; nothing more or less."
Bull fucking horse shit! You got nothing accomplished, Valve promised L4D DLC, and they gave it to you.
"Our goal wasn’t to steer people away from L4D2"... Uhmm... Do you guys even know what a freaking boycott is? Lol...
Anyway, posting this because I just decided to read the post that the boycott made a while back. Didn't think it was important enough to read before, but now that I read it, it makes a good script for a good drama comedy (dark comedy for all of you advant movie fanatics.).
P.S. to the boycott, CRY SOME MORE!

The New Boycott Group is not a Threat but..
You all propably heard of new the L4D2 boycott group 2. Dekland seemed not to understand what closing a boycott group means. Instead of giving up, he continues the Boycott.
Over 30,000 boycotter members are not happy about the fact that the 1st boycott group is closed. Yet, when they find out of this New boycott group, they will massively join the Boycott Crusade part II.
As I notice is that Walking_target and Agent ( old boycott admins) are trying to hide this group.
The problems that could be created when old boycott members find this new official boycott group:
1: A New flame wars will be started on the forums and in chat rooms.
2: Games such as Team fortress 2 can be ruined by endless discussions between l4d2 lovers and boycotters.
3: Some boycotters may buy l4d2 and will ruin games on it to show their rage.
4: In the worst case Valve could take the group serious. Which is bullshit. Boycotters need to understand that DLC"s normally cost money in this world of buisness.
What u guys think ? Will this new group:
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/l4d2boycott2?
be a new threat ? You guys need to remember that the old l4d2 boycotters are furious. When they find this group .....
So what we do ? We spam the new group ? Discussions with old l4d2 boycotters ? Or just leave it like this ?

A Huge Spoiler of Dark Carnival finale
Seriously. No need to read if you're not as hungry for info(lots of others) or you're not a newsmaker for some serious sites(me). It is such a BIG spoiler which could make your first 2DC game just unforgettable.

you were told

according to the PC Gamer UK latest issue:
'Theres going to be a big stadium at the end where a band that used to be famous is going to play. Classic Rock guys. You have to set off a finale of a classic rock show. Get up on stage, do a lot of rocking out to alert the helicopter to rescue you. You'll set off fireworks, there's a light show. You can go up to the microphone on the stage and anything your character says is amplified out into the world'

Demo Details
Here we go...
Pre-Order Now and Be the First To Play
Oct 15, 2009 - Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced details and timing for the demo of its upcoming zombie thriller, Left 4 Dead 2.
The Left 4 Dead 2 demo will feature gameplay taken from "The Parish" campaign, set in the New Orleans French Quarter. Playable by 1 to 4 players over local or Internet connections on both the Xbox 360 and PC (with two-player split screen available on the Xbox 360), the demo features all the new boss infected zombies and all the new melee weapons included in the full product.
Those who pre-order the game (at participating retailers or via Steam) will obtain early access to the demo on October 27. The demo will then be made available to Xbox LIVE Gold members and all PC gamers on November 3. Then all Xbox LIVE members will obtain access to the demo on November 10.
Coming exclusively to Xbox 360 and PC, L4D2 promises to set a new benchmark for co-operative action games and become one of 2009's marquee titles. Set for release on November 17, the title adds melee combat to enable deeper co-operative gameplay, with items such as a chainsaws, frying pans, axes, baseball bats, and more.
With the AI Director 2.0, L4D's dynamic gameplay is taken to the next level by giving the Director the ability to procedurally change weather effects, world objects, and pathways in addition to tailoring the enemy population, effects, and sounds to match the players' performance. The result is a unique game session custom fitted to provide a satisfying and uniquely challenging experience each time the game is played.
Adding new Survivors, boss zombies, weapons, and items, Left 4 Dead 2 offers a much larger game than the original, featuring more co-operative campaigns, more Versus campaigns, new Survival maps, and the new competitive game mode, Scavenge, all available at launch.

Fourth and First Campaigns SUDDENLY Unveiled.
And not by Valve. Some... Taiwann or like that source gave us FIVE posters.
http://gnn.gamer.com.tw/4/39834.html
There are TWO more. And...
The first, mall campaign, is called Dead Center and has this tagline - "Prices aren't the Only things getting Slashed"
Fourth is urban-based campaign with some water temathics, due to it having a name "Hard Rain" and a tagline of "Come Hell and High Water". However, a refinery can be seen at the background.
Here are the posters.

The versus gameplay ( Dark Carnival 2nd campaign) posted by 1337_n00b, gives us more info about the first campaign set in Savannah.

The conversation at the start between ellis and nick tells about the resuqe vehicle and the Finale location in the first campaign.
Conversation:
Ellis: "Sorry Folks,This car is capable for a miracle but cant drive over 20 miles **something**. I think we're walkin.''
Nick: "Dont Worry(?) Ellis, Atleast you got us out of that Mall."
__________________________________
This means the finale of the first campaign is in a Mall. That not just only, they escape with the car seen at the beginning of the versus video. '0:15.'
Plus the thing propably Ellis gotta do is getting that car fixed. ( he is... was mechanic).

And once again sry for my bad engrish. Yes, engrish.
And once again sry for my bad engrish. Yes, engrish.
First Versus footage ever
Here it is, kids, Versus. Even though we were able to see some infected in action in the Scavenge mode videos, nothing's better than some versus video.
DC1, the player is an essence of noobism, but, still, everyone else's the same shit.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gw2crf42520
sit back, relax, and facepalm.

and notice that Nick says that at least they've got out of the mall.
Gratzez, we have a mall now. Coooooon-firmd. Even though Chet mentioned it before.
Who does not want to kill Valve for showing DC instead of the first campaign now?

'Realism Mode'' accidentally revealed during Scavenge mode previews
Is this a harder difficulty then expert? Less ammo and health ? hmm
(Source: Shacknews)
It seems Valve revealed more of Left 4 Dead 2 than it meant to while blowing out the game's new Scavenge mode, as 1UP took note of an option for "realism mode."
"That's a special modifier that we forgot to hide for this demo," explained Valve's Chet Faliszek, with marketing VP Doug Lombardi then describing it rather vaguely:
"Take Portal for example: We had our best internal players who could blow through that game in about 30 minutes, but within weeks of launching it we had people on YouTube beating [the testers'] times by 10 minutes or more. Realism is for those players."
http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/60788
EDIT: This 'propably' means that this game mode is made for people that even beat expert in a short time. Who knows how this will look like.
What ya guys think ? slower zombies/ infected? no infected at all ? no medkits/ammo? ..?

L4D2 New Gamemode revealed, L4D2 Scavenge Infected gameplay and some more facts!
Gamevideos revealed the new gamemode.
It is called:"Scavenge." Two teams. Survivors and Infected. In the middle of the map is a generator.. it needs to be filled up. 16 gas cans are hidden everywhere. you and your team got 1 minute and 30 seconds to find as much gas cans and fill up the generator.
The Infected team tries obviously, to stop the survivors. The team that filled the generator with the most gas cans, wins.
Video:

This video also shows a new reload animation for the Scar AND a FEMALE boomer skin.
Now raises the question, does every SI have a male and female skin???
Plus a new twist to the soundtrack when died.

Now raises the question, does every SI have a male and female skin???
Plus a new twist to the soundtrack when died.

Left4dead2 Demo coming October 27
The promised downloadable sample for Valve's zombie shooter sequel will arrive on October 27, the company confirmed tonight at an Electronic Arts event in Japan.
No other details were mentioned, leaving it unclear as to if that date applies to everyone or just those that pre-order. However, a listing from retailer game.co.uk notes "[the Xbox 360] demo will be exclusive to preorder customers up until 3rd November."
Valve previously said those who pre-ordered from "participating retailers or Steam" would snag "advanced access to the demo," with the company later adding that pre-ordering folk would also receive an exclusive melee weapon: the American baseball bat.
The PC and Xbox 360 game is due November 17. We're checking in for more details, including whether or not PC and Xbox 360 will get the demo on the same day.

A Deagle, a laser sight upgrade and the night- stick
First I want to say Thanks 1337_n00b[L4D2] for the awesome news and links!!!!
Valve confirmed a new weapon. Its the Deagle. People who played counter strike etc, will know the true power of this weapon.
This weapon can be seen on this picture:
http://bbs.nashalife.ru/attachment_800_33c4da2882c831b2bafa0dfa0a2489d5.jpg
Although the skin is a Deagle, the text above it says: Magnum Pistol.
here is a video with a small view on the deagle in the beginning.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqwMrMRrW6Q
Valve also announced laser sight upgrades.
This can be confirmed in the same video link.
(pause at 0:08)
The last thing that is been announced is a Night stick melee weapon.
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/left-4-dead-2-specials-weapons-and-tactics-hands-on
Read the text beneath the dark Carnival movie poster.
Well, thats for all Folks. It looks like Left4dead2 is getting bigger and bigger!
The murderous infected may have headed south for this outing, but there's no sign yet that they've started to go downhill.

At PAX, valve revealed more about the campaign: Dark Carnival. The Uncommon common infected special for this campaign is the Clown. (already known). His special ability? Attracting Hordes.( like the screamer??).
Some people say he attracts large hordes, others say just a small one. Ofcourse Dark Carnival got an awesome movie poster.

The 3rd new SI confirmed ?
Clowns, A Dark carnival and now .... maybe the 3rd new special infected confirmed by valve? Not many people know it so far but it seems that play testers have seen the 3rd new SI.
http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=954346
It seemed that this SI was supposed to be a suprise for Penny Arcades Expo.
This play tester is saying its called the Jockey.
A male infected. Wearing a colorfull shirt with diamond shapes accros the middle of his shirt.
Nothing exotic, just like a mental assylum case zombie. He seems to jump up with decent height. Nothing like the hunter though.
He can jump onto your back, and then you can't control your character anymore like being incapped, only instead of being stuck on the ground, or being hung by a smoker, he can force you to tumble away in any direction he wants while he is on you.
Oh and he got a very weird distinct laugh.
If its true or not. The only truth will be revealed on PAX or by Valve later this year.
* The Play testers didnt call him actually annoying or anything. The playtester talking about it ( the link ) said he was never hit by one.
THANKS L33T- N00B(EX-WARDENER) for the awesome link :) xD

New Left4dead 1 DLC planned for September ( Valve: 5 Boycotters: 0 )
"Crashing will be the easiest thing they do today."
''Entitled "Crash Course," the latest DLC delivers new single-player, multiplayer and co-operative gameplay to both platforms. Targeted for release in September, "Crash Course" bridges the gap between the end of the "No Mercy" campaign and the beginning of "Death Toll" in the original game, expanding the game universe with new locations, new dialogue from the original cast, and an explosive finale
While containing both Survival maps and a Co-operative Campaign, the primary goal of "Crash" is to deliver a complete Versus mode experience in just 30 minutes, resulting in a streamlined version of the game's existing Versus campaigns. A recharge timer for infected teammates has also been added, and item spawn behavior has changed for more balanced gameplay.
"Since the release of Left 4 Dead last November, the design team has been excited about creating new experiences for this world and allowing players to do the same, by releasing much of our internal toolset, like the Survival Pack and Authoring Tools," said Gabe Newell. "We're working with the fans toward the ongoing entertainment value of the product."
Left 4 Dead is an action horror game from Valve that blends the social entertainment experience of multiplayer games such as Counter-Strike and Team Fortress with the dramatic, narrative experience made popular in single player action game classics such as the Half-Life series of games. Released in November of 2008, L4D has earned over 50 industry awards from outlets around the world and sold almost 3 million copies worldwide.
Left 4 Dead: Crash Course is targeted for release in September and will be available free of charge on the PC and for 560 Gamer points on Xbox Live. ''

"ABOUT THE GAME"
Set in the zombie apocalypse, Left 4 Dead 2 (L4D2) is the highly anticipated sequel to the award-winning Left 4 Dead, the #1 co-op game of 2008.
This co-operative action horror FPS takes you and your friends through the cities, swamps and cemeteries of the Deep South, from Savannah to New Orleans across five expansive campaigns.
You'll play as one of four new survivors armed with a wide and devastating array of classic and upgraded weapons. In addition to firearms, you'll also get a chance to take out some aggression on infected with a variety of carnage-creating melee weapons, from chainsaws to axes and even the deadly frying pan.
You'll be putting these weapons to the test against (or playing as in Versus) three horrific and formidable new Special Infected. You'll also encounter five new “uncommon” common infected, including the terrifying Mudmen.
Helping to take L4D's frantic, action-packed gameplay to the next level is AI Director 2.0. This improved Director has the ability to procedurally change the weather you'll fight through and the pathways you'll take, in addition to tailoring the enemy population, effects, and sounds to match your performance. L4D2 promises a satisfying and uniquely challenging experience every time the game is played, custom-fitted to your style of play.
Next generation co-op action gaming from the makers of Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress and Counter-Strike.
Over 20 new weapons & items headlined by over 10 melee weapons – axe, chainsaw, frying pan, baseball bat – allow you to get up close with the zombies
New survivors. New Story. New dialogue.
Five expansive campaigns for co-operative, Versus and Survival game modes.
An all new multiplayer mode.
Uncommon common infected. Each of the five new campaigns contains at least one new “uncommon common” zombies which are exclusive to that campaign.
AI Director 2.0: Advanced technology dubbed “The AI Director” drove L4D's unique gameplay – customizing enemy population, effects, and music, based upon the players’ performance. L4D 2 features “The AI Director 2.0” which expands the Director’s ability to customize level layout, world objects, weather, and lighting to reflect different times of day.
Stats, rankings, and awards system drives collaborative play

More L4D2 Boycott Bull S!@#... ?
'L4D2 Spitter ‘invented’ by L4D2 Boycotter', an article reads. Sounds like bull s!@# to me. I highly doubt that Valve stole an idea from the L4D2 Boycott. Two things:
1.) Valve has been working on this game, since the relase of L4D. I'm pretty sure Valve already had most of the game in the works, including weapons, and the new special infect. The idea for the Spitter was already there, just not annouced yet. Look at the L4D forums, you have tons of people, posting tons of ideas. Some one is bound to post an idea that already exists. They also said that the idea of the Charger was 'stolen' from another fan as well. Well, if you ask me, the Charge is basically like the Tanks hillbilly cousin.
2.) Common sense: If you're going to write a book, do you go onto the internet and post your idea for the book on the forums, so everyone can look at it, and steal your idea? NO! Well, if this idea was really yours, and it was that precious to you, why did you annouce it to the public? Why else do people post ideas on the forums? Hoping that a literary agent will pop up, and say, "Hey! That's a great idea!" If Valve did steal your idea, who cares, be happy that your zombie idea will be included in their newest video game. Unless you were going to create your own zombie game, where the Spitter was going to be on the special infected, in which case you shouldn't of exposed your idea to the public to be stolen in the first place.
They also say that the Spitter should be added to the origonal L4D, to fix some ingame problems. Hey, Boycott, get used to it, L4D2 is coming out. And they're not going to add all of the weapons, and new special infected to the origonal game either. If you want them so much, go buy the new game when it comes out.
For all the people who decided to post comments before you actually read the whole post, here is the article with the title: http://www.totalpcgaming.com/latest-pc-news/l4d2-spitter-invented-by-l4d2-boycotter/ And this whole post, is not based off of that one article, it is based off of the news/rumors streaming through the internet. Yes, maybe someone in the L4D2 Boycott group did co-operate to get the Spitter in the new game, but thats not stealing.

The idea for the Spitter was already there, just not annouced yet. Look at the L4D forums, you have tons of people, posting tons of ideas. Some one is bound to post an idea that already exists. They also said that the idea of the Charger was 'stolen' from another fan as well. Well, if you ask me, the Charge is basically like the Tanks hillbilly cousin.
2.) Common sense: If you're going to write a book, do you go onto the internet and post your idea for the book on the forums, so everyone can look at it, and steal your idea? NO! Well, if this idea was really yours, and it was that precious to you, why did you annouce it to the public? Why else do people post ideas on the forums? Hoping that a literary agent will pop up, and say, "Hey! That's a great idea!" If Valve did steal your idea, who cares, be happy that your zombie idea will be included in their newest video game. Unless you were going to create your own zombie game, where the Spitter was going to be on the special infected, in which case you shouldn't of exposed your idea to the public to be stolen in the first place.
They also say that the Spitter should be added to the origonal L4D, to fix some ingame problems. Hey, Boycott, get used to it, L4D2 is coming out. And they're not going to add all of the weapons, and new special infected to the origonal game either. If you want them so much, go buy the new game when it comes out.
For all the people who decided to post comments before you actually read the whole post, here is the article with the title: http://www.totalpcgaming.com/latest-pc-news/l4d2-spitter-invented-by-l4d2-boycotter/ And this whole post, is not based off of that one article, it is based off of the news/rumors streaming through the internet. Yes, maybe someone in the L4D2 Boycott group did co-operate to get the Spitter in the new game, but thats not stealing.
Left4dead 2 so far.
Since the revealed campaign: Swamp Fever, valve also revealed new types of infected and weapons.
So far we got a new uncommon common infected.
This one will be only for the Swamp Fever campaign. They are called: The mudmen.
They walk on both hands and feet and run towards you in the middle of the horde. As soon you get hit by one, your vision will be covered in mud.
Valve also revealed a second Special Infected called : The Spitter.
It is a female zombie. She looks quite creepy comparing to the other zombies. She will cause panic among camping survivors. She storms into the group and leaves an area of radation like stuff that keeps growing. Survivors will take damage as long as they are in this small area. This most likely will cause panic and the group will split up.
Then the new revealed weapons.
The Frying pan, the crickit bat, the ak-47 and the Grenade launcher. and valve is far from done yet.
Valve will release atleast 1 more special infected. Maybe 2.
Hopefully valve reveals more stuff between now and november....

L4D2 Enthusiasts Blog Launched!
Hello all, and welcome to the Left 4 Dead 2 Enthusiasts! I would love to say, thank you all for joining.
Left 4 Dead 2, which is coming out November 17th, is supposed to be a great game. It has;
- 5 new campaigns.
- 4 new characters.
- 3 new special infected.
- 2 new common infected.
- 1 new campaign, where the infection has not hit.
- 20 new weapons.
- New graphics, and so on and so forth.
This really is a respectable sequel to the original game.
This was in response to the L4D 2 Boycott group, because a lot of people were against their opinions. Right now I will say, there is a freedom of speech, and I respect their opinion. But this isn't just a group created against the L4D2 Boycott group, it's also a group for Left 4 Dead 2 Enthusiasts.
We have only hit a short milestone in our expansion of players, but we have come a decent way. While the L4D2 Boycott group has around 30,000 members, we have around 255, and growing.
There are a lot of stupid things that the L4D2 Boycott group are complaining about. Here are some to name a few;
- The music played.
- The character design.
- The color of the game, etc...
In my opinion, these are some pretty stupid arguments, where all evidence came from a Left 4 Dead 2 Beta teaser trailer. May I remind you, a beta is not the full finished version of the game.
They are also saying things like; "Valve is a greedy company, only releasing L4D2 to get money!"
Okay... Well, guess what? Sequels happen! Lets see, hmm... CoD: World at War, Modern Warfare 2, a new Madden game practical every 9 months, and the list goes on and on... But no one has ever made such a big deal like this in respond to a sequel until now.
Valve is moving forwards. Yes they promised new content for Left 4 Dead, and guess what? They're releasing it! Left 4 Dead 2 is a game for people who wanted a sequel, who will buy, and enjoy it!
I would also like to say this. From my knowledge, we have done nothing to the L4D2 Boycott group, but yet they seem to make themselves look worse each day by spamming this group. The only point they're making, is how stupid they look. You know, not sure if you noticed this, but there's this great invention called the "Delete button", works well. See, when you post one of you attempted spamming, that probably took who knows how much time you had to make, I can get rid of it in a blink of an eye.
One last thing that I would love to say is; Thank you all for joining, I really appreciate it, I really do! I love the comments, and opinions that you guys have been leaving, and I read every single one of them. I am hoping that you all do your part by spreading the word, and keep this group alive.
