spookiest one in the thred

I hope the community is at least partially better. Whenever I play and we go through a chapter or two all of sudden I'm voted to get kicked for no fucking reason. I rush or stick with the team depending what they do, I cover them and try to shove anything off them.

All because I have 64 hours is my guess. Is there some fucking requirement where you need 5000+ hours to play now?

FUCK YOU SLADE YOU FUCKING NIGGER

>>257653394
pretty sure I've played with that guy. sounds like he's in his 50s and lives at the trailer park?

>>257650416
these are pretty cool and all, but even L4D2 has a weird balance, the original was balanced the best but with more infected than means its harder to balance out

>>257650416
Gabe is so luck, being able to put himself in videogames like that.

While I like the art style of those early models, they were going to be redesigned anyways, they weren't really consistent with the zombie models drawn at that time in development.

If they got canned, it was because it was inconsistent with the gameplay. The one running around screaming? I think it's cool but realistically, it would make the team stop progressing to hunt him down or face him, which would take a lot of time, and in versus that would ruin the flow of the game.

I thought the ratman was turned into the spitter later on, and the giant colossal zombie with zombies for hands couldn't fit through much of the geometry of the level if he was that scale.

I like the art, but being realistic it was going to change.

So am I the only one who thinks the creepiest part is that its "hands" are literally just bodies from the neck down?

>>257653673
Yeah most regulars will kick you if you don't have at least 1k hours, but usually it's if you don't have a mic. it's worse when you do vs mode

They could remove some old ones or make certain types only appear in certain maps, kinda like if the clown zombies were actual special infected.

The guys name is Meatwall so I think it would make sense that he couldn't fit through stuff. He can just walk up to a door and he's so big that he blocks it like a wall, he doesn't need to go through it

Again, I think that would ruin the flow of versus, it's supposed to allow you to keep moving if your team isn't garbage.

While I know that's true, you have to think about the limits of the infected. Sure, their goal is to stop you, but ones like the Meatwall who CAN stop you so easily and readily, is just not fun for a versus game where the goal for the survivors is to keep moving no matter what.

The new one probably won't have many new specials, they have one for each major function as it is. One that pins (hunter), pushes (charger), pulls (smoker), spreads the survivors (spitter), pushes them back together (boomer), and a damage dealer (witch and tank) and one that is not very good at anything and doesn't function well and is a bit to comical imo (jockey).
Furthermore, each special needs to be able to be believed in bulk. What I mean is you look at a boomer, you say to yourself "yeah, we're in america, I believe these fat fucks can exist in bulk". But you look at pic related and are supposed to believe that every single pic related you encountered experienced the same, ultra specific circumstances to exist in the state they do. Which is silly. It also helps if whatever form the specials take, are taken with a "biological" connotation, not artificial; See pic related. Thoughts?

i want pseudo reboot. other anon said have 3 take place long after 2 and i think thats smart cuz it allows opportunity to not need to develop new special infected roles while still being able to be creating new designs for them instead of same boring boomers, smokers, hunters, etc. again.

I want a Tank that can run like the Charger and stand upright. So a titan or something, and is uncommon. Tanks are too easy to kill and escape from.

Haggard would be great if the javelins slowed your character until you removed the shrapnel. Removing shrapnel would give you back half of the damage the jav did but would require an animation as long as the first aid kit. That would make it work great in conjunction with crescendos and tanks despite probably being really frustrating

Left 4 Dead 1 had a better atmosphere than 2.

And that was the biggest reason I preferred it.

>running into the tank in the sewers
>escaping down random tunnels
>ending up lost as fuck, last one alive

This is one of the few games to give me an adrenaline rush.

>>257655328
I've got a better idea, how about a mutated tier system where tier 1 is the infected we have now aside from a few, tier 2 is infected like the charger, boomer and a few posted here and tier 3 would all be boss infected like the Tank, Witch and Meatwall. All these infected would spawn randomly but the higher tiers would be less common and the tier 3s would only spawn once or twice every level.

He's too quick and is awkward to counter, it's completely possible, but having to right click before he even jumps and "shield yourself" after your swing animation is over leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. His primary attack is available way to quick post successful shove it's silly. As specials what he can do is random seeing as how a survivor maintains 25% control of the survivor hinders most plans that try to go into action with awful shit tier damage at that. In addition to them being to small, their first person camera implies they're the same height as everyone else which is a minor nit pick but still, it feeds into the idea that the jockey is a sloppily designed infected, that has no main damage dealing role (tank, witch, hunter), and has no moving power (smoker, charger) because of it's vague role being to difficult to define on the fly because of random variables further hindering the efforts of the poorly balanced infected team. (He also is too silly and shifts the tone to far out but whatever, that can be fixed with a redesign.)

>>257656748
Yeah it feels slightly more dark and cramped while 2 has more open middle of the day segments

Though running through that swamp with the big plants was pretty damn good

>>257656990
I think the Jockey is a good setup, because he can move people where he wants, if you cooperate the Jockey is always the one to set off the chain of events to pin 3+ people.

>>257656748
Better atmosphere sure, but left 4 dead 2 had more personality in their levels, felt more populated and were straight up more unique, and better designed.

>>257655650
They're divided into 3 groups:
Ones that scatters the group and pins one down to deal major damage: Charger and Hunter
One that pulls individuals from the group: Smoker and Jockey
One that punishes being grouped up and changes positioning: Spitter and Boomer. They're also the only ones with female models

If they make new specials in 3, then they'll follow the same pattern probably

I'm sorry if you don't agree, but 2's levels just weren't as well designed imo.

>>257657419
if you asked me right now which game to play, I would in all honesty choose the first game.
L4D2 just doesn't feel the same. It lacks that gritty, oppressive no hope is left that L4D2 had.
It might have been superior gameplay wise, but I'd rather play the slightly worse game (which is still really great) if it means having a better experience.

>>257656990
A successful Jockey can set the survivors back further than any other infected

So, this is ANOTHER YEAR with Valve talking about absolutely nothing.
This gamescam was terrible, there's nothing to wait for anymore.

It is a bit ridiculous. I mean, witches are terrifying once they get going. I don't see the male equivalent abusing it without losing an arm or a face. Just make them the same.

Honestly I'd prefer something creepily cute. Like if the male witch gets startled you can run over and guide him to the female witch. Then when they run into each other they both sit back down or slowly walk off with each other, no longer crying. A one time easter egg on a map maybe? To give me some feels to go along with the horror.

This is cool and all, but it leads to a lot of bad things in terms of design.

With those people on his hands we can assume it's like 25 feet tall. It would have to spawn only in certain areas, making maps predictable and less interesting. Also the idea of an enemy in the game that is designed specifically to eat bullets isn't smart. It's basically a gate that tells the player "Insert X amount of bullets to proceed"

I'd really like to see something scary like that, but don't know how to make it work

>>257658936
That's a little unfair since it only takes one other Special Infected to pin someone down and kill someone

>>257656990


I tend to agree.

I remember that before the jocky came out I had an idea for a zombie stripper infected.

Very agile, dodge moves, but her main ability is to jump on the backs of survivors. Possible hang on ceilings. High melee damage or at least fast. Good jump height but nothing like the hunter.

While alive she can move survivors aim and movement with the player having some control.

You try to make them shoot teammates or wander off somewhere.

The trick was if she was "killed" she would instantly go into rigamortis. She could no longer influence the survivor but they would be slowed as would their aiming/turning.

To get her off other survivors could shoot her off (dangerous because they still take friendly fire), wait until she lets go, or do an animation.

>>257658518
First cast felt like a "classic" pairing, and they're definitely way cooler. They feel like movie characters- which, they fully intended L4D to feel like a movie. So it works.

L4D2, though, they feel like characters you're supposed to get attached to. And you can- except Rochelle. Also, that doesn't work very well when it still has that "movie" feeling added to it.

I forgot to mention they also have Winding Refn on board to fulfill all of Kojima's dreams so the ending will be Gordon walking into the sunset while "Real human bean" plays

>>257658747

Because death pits are part of the game. You're not supposed to defib them if they get knocked in to one. However if the player is suddenly launched outside of the map bounds in a map that was designed to not have death pits in it then that would make the defib a complete waste of an item.

I fucking hate the defib and dont think it should have been added at all though.

So let me explain L4D2 to in a way only somebody raised in Georgia can.

I live in Georgia, and I can say with 100% certainty that the characters were spot on, but the beginning areas looked nothing like Savannah, Georgia.

if you are a special infected and right click an allied Jockey while they are riding a Survivor, there is a random chance that you can accidentally one hit kill the Jockey, thus freeing the Survivor.

While the devs tried to fix the problem (after years of the community complaining about it on the forum) was accidentally create a glitch that occasionally made tank punches deal double damage when hitting Survivors that have a Jockey on them.

l4d was always about versus. there is no challenge going against bots.

For meatwall to be an interesting enemy they would need to make maps that aren't linear, otherwise he would just be an annoying bullet sponge.

>>257661482
They already experimented with maps that change layouts between playthroughs, maybe multiple paths could be opened up but a meatwall could then spawn in the game to block one of them.

However, it kinda makes the meat wall seem pointless in that role when the AI director already accomplishes the same thing without it

The glitches were always a really fun part of the game.

You're a shitty teammate and they're better off with a bot than having you.

If you can get to the safe house alone, play on a harder difficulty or play alone.

>>257662138
you're a fucking terrible terrible person and i hope you get killed

What about a defensive/ healer Special? Either a special that can heal the other infected, or maybe one with abnormal growths or some shit and an incredibly high defence but abysmal offense whose main goal is to soak up damage so the other special infected can maneuver around better?

Doesn't really matter though, All valve games end up with the absolute shittiest playerbases in vidya and L4D is the worst of the worst. It really makes no fucking sense to me, L4D takes next to no skill yet the playerbase is split between
1. retards that suck asshole
2. elitist fuckheads that instantly kick you the second you join.
While games that require skill (or at least dedication) like monster hunter have amazing playerbases.

He's still being an inconsiderate teammate. If the rest are moving slower than him, he shouldn't be rushing ahead.

It's not about the other players being worse than him, it's about him being a bad team player.

>>257662331
>Play a harder difficulty
>I play on expert

Top kek, kid. Half the time the only reason why they complete the map and are able to progress to the next one is because while they were busy being incompetent and looking for weapons around the map I waited at the end of the map, and because of that we won. I can't see you mouth breathers getting past a full campaign on even Advanced without a player of my skill.

and that the bodies would pile up and they would climb over the dead to get to you, and that only head shots or multiple body shots stopped a zombie, and you could shoot their limbs to make them ineffective, like chasing you with a limp arm because you shot it or crawling because you blew their legs out, etc

also the "special" infected could just be regular zombies controlled by the player under the guise of more "intelligent" or instinctual zombies, in which you would be indistinguishable from the other a.i zombies, except for your movement etc and you could tackle survivors in the flanks etc while they deal with the hordes

He's complaining about getting kicked by people who are playing together, when he is blatantly being a lone wolf.

It doesn't matter if the rest of the team is a bunch of shitters, there's a pretty valid reason for them to kick him if he's leaving the rest of them in the dust.

>>257663664
melee attacks of survivors should also only be limited to 1 enemy per swing, it's too unrealistic otherwise

>>257663551
expert is a joke compared to versus, 0% skill, and rushers are absolute retards with no intelligence. have fun being super pro against your specials which don't coordinate at all and hunters which pounce in a straight line after running straight up to you

>>257660409
>the beginning areas looked nothing like Savannah

Gotta agree. If anything, Dead Center felt more like downtown Atlanta

Valve promised so much for L4D1, more maps, even a flamethrower.

Then a year later we got the sequel and the game barely got any support, it also amazes me how bad the campaigns they offered where, they even picked the worst fan created one to boot.

>>257663876
If I stuck behind with them and died like they did looking for irrelevant objects in side rooms they wouldn't complete the level. How is that leaving them in the dust? I am the reason why they were able to continue to the next level. Will it piss you off more to tell you that most of the time I use up most of the medkits while I'm waiting for them?

>>257664058
It's way easier to juke a human player than it is to juke AI. You haven't played enough of both game modes obviously if you think versus is harder than Expert.

>>257664253
they need to git gud then. They're shitty players and you're a shitty team mate. they're just randoms, find someone else to play with and don't complain when you get booted if you're being a lone wolf.

You're honestly better off just playing alone if you're gonna rush ahead of the team anyways.

I think that a special infected like that wouldnt make sense when you compare it to the other specials. The only special infected that doesnt die from a few shotgun blasts is the tank. Whats the point of having a special that heals other specials when most of the time they die in the first 4 seconds of an engagement? I think most of the time a healer infected would just be useless unless it had more versatility.

I think one of the reasons why we havent seen another left for dead game is there is really no more room for new special infected. They already have all the types of infected that make logical sense for this type of team based game. All the roles are already filled, really.

Valve cant really bring anything new to the table for left for dead. Its not because they dont know what to do with it, its most likely because they cant come up with enough content that is new and interesting to warrant a new game. Its a good thing and a bad thing.

I think our problem is when we experience a really good video game we tend to play it over and over until it isnt nearly as entertaining as when we first started playing it. Thats why we get excited for a sequel. It means we get to feel that feeling we originally got from when we first started playing the game. Its sad, but I dont think l4d has any more room for new and interesting stuff. Its all been done at this point.

I think that at this point a new half life game is more likely than a new game in the left for dead franchise.

>>257664487
If it was a coordinated effort I wouldn't have to rush ahead of them, we'd rush together. I don't see how rushing isn't a valid strategy in a game that's about getting from one point to the next.

>>257650782
I'm pretty sure that I've played a game with an enemy like that. Anyone know what game it is that I'm talking about?

>>257662543

Pretty much all my time spent in L4D 1 and 2 were with cousins and friends. But yeah, randoms were one of those two things whenever I did play with them. It's too bad, because the games were great and deserved a better player base.

>>257656990
My only beef with the jockey is that it's nearly impossible to punch him mid-air, he grabs you at what seems almost out of your shove range. Even after 800 hours of play time, he's the only special infected I still have trouble with at times. At certain ranges you simply can't deal enough damage before he pounces you or get close enough to shove him. He's really easy to get off people but one on one can be frustrating sometimes. It's not really a problem I have every time one spawns but at specific ranges/parts of levels he becomes a nightmare 1 on 1.

Also another problem I have is you can literally shoot right through survivor's heads to kill the jockey and do no damage to them, I was under the impression when he was revealed that the whole point was that you had to hit him and not damage the survivor.

>>257664453
>It's way easier to juke a human player than it is to juke AI

I would say "git gud" if it weren't like you said, you have to preemptively shove in order to knock him away in mid air but there's no tell as to when he will jump so you just have to make your best guess.

>>257650692
I could see it as a side mechanism to existing female witches, once you threaten/trigger a witch she could call him as a backup to fuck you up.

The whole point of Left 4 Dead is that it's supposed to be a "B list" zombie movie.

I kind of have a feeling that the new L4D isn't going to be just L4D3, a simple sequel, but L4D: Something Something. Will be all focused on game modes that have more replay value compared to the campaigns. Will also probably have cosmetics, and thus the game will get the support that TF2, Dota 2 and CS GO get.

>>257661121
That fucker plays OSU. Nobody gets that good through normal gameplay.

A new special infected that injects poison to slow down the survivor's running speed. The debuff will slowly fade away like boomer's bile.

The infected would leap onto a survivor, quickly inject them and then jump off, knocking the survivor to the floor and dealing little damage.

Y/N?

No, the jockey essentially does the same thing with hit and run tactics. I would much rather like to see another special infected that shoots jagged projectiles at the cost of sacrificing their own limited health. Their jagged projectiles can deal minor damage and slow on impact, but they will be completely direct and non-persistent like spitter goo.

Another idea could be a support role of special infected that could roar/spit on friendly zombie mobs to give them extra damage/damage resistance to work in conjunction with boomers/random mobs.

>Melee swings only take out one zombie
Now melee is useless

>Players control regular zombies
Well they'll get shredded easily be good players who are aware of their surroundings, and be lucky to get a hit in unless there's a horde

>Zombies try to tackle you and bite you to death
Okay how does this work from a gameplay perspective? You get rushed by 15 zombies and get tackled to the ground Dead Island style except the zombies bite you on the ground and you're basically helpless unless your teammates shoot them off?

>Bodies piling up
Well that's a great way to crash/lag the server or lead to you being able to climb piles of bodies out of bounds

>Head shots or multiple body shots stopped a zombie
That's how it already is

>Shoot limbs to make them ineffective
You can blow off their arms and legs. The reason they die when you shoot off their legs is because you could easily just walk away while it can't get to you and that's one less zombie the server can spawn.

>Countless hordes the entire time
Play survival or L4D1, the hordes in that game are a bit thicker and there are less roamers.

>>257651532
L4D isn't supposed to be THAT scary or serious.

>>257668593
A special infected that instantly kills you if you 'get caught' getting items

>>257668560
this is objectively correct. The mic muting during the storm was some of the most immersive stuff I've ever experienced. More an arcade multiplayer zombie shooter no less.

>>257656990
It's easy to find someone who a hunter pinned and kill the hunter, because he's stationary.
It's easy to headshot a smoker who snagged a teammate with a hunting rifle, because he's stationary.
The jockey is NOT stationary, and is the best infected for pulling survivors the furthest away from eachother. Say some teammate is lagging slightly behind because he went to go pick up a gun or something. Jockey grabs him, and pulls him further away from you guys. Either someone has to go chase him down, or your teammate dies. So at least one guy goes, and every second spent chasing him is another second the jockey spent dragging him away, making the chase a little more arduous. Now the group is separated. See, it puts a logistical strain on things. Also it's fucking easy to fall for those bastards.

l4d2 was just like a really arcade mod/expansion of l4d1 and completely killed the dark theme / universe it was set in

l4d1 was based on a comic book type feel what was l4d2 based off of?

>>257668560

3. Ammo still in magazines is lost when reloading
4. Picking up a new gun does not give you a full inventory of its ammo, just what's in the magazine, until you find a stockpile

Pigs are classically used as symbols of evil, for example, lord of the flies, or animal farm. Probably rooting from the fact that actual pigs are assholes.

I made my l4d2 the most cancerous thing I could.
I don't know why, but I laugh whenever I play now at least even at frustrating parts

>>257668278
>Now melee against multiple zombies is useless
ftfy

>Well they'll get shredded easily be good players who are aware of their surroundings, and be lucky to get a hit in unless there's a horde
my first comment covered that, talking about countless hordes aswell as only headshots/multiple body shots to kill a zombie, also there's only a limited amount of ammunition in a clip so it's not like you can hold them off forever

>Okay how does this work from a gameplay perspective?
just like hunters and other special infected work, by incapacitating you. you'd need to be saved by your teammates

>Well that's a great way to crash/lag the server or lead to you being able to climb piles of bodies out of bounds
i don't know enough about game design to comment on this, but it's not an essential design mechanic

>That's how it already is
you can shoot their limbs and kill them

>You can blow off their arms and legs. The reason they die when you shoot off their legs is because you could easily just walk away while it can't get to you and that's one less zombie the server can spawn.
how about give them a bleed out timer, they can crawl up to you and grab onto your leg etc for 30 seconds or something

>>Countless hordes the entire time
an exaggeration, but you could add more zombies to make the game more action packed

>You want an entirely different game than what L4D is about
i thought it was about surviving a zombie apocalypse but i guess not

>>257670018
I can't believe that somebody would make a Shark Tales guy model

>>257657364
There is also the group that is set out to deal mass damage: Witch & Tank

>>257669957
I think that would be better with just the music playing.

Looking at this thing, the only two weaknesses i see are small entrances (lel) and it's legs/knees/feet (shoot the legs, it falls and dies). So what if it could only spawn in a certain number of spaces (certain streets, big indoor areas), and only spawned if there was a Horde present. So even though you know it'd never spawn in a hallway, you'd be spooked because you know it might or might not show up once you reach the outside of the building or the big lobby of the airport, unlike the tank which is most always expected. The horde mechanic is for two reasons: 1, to have a bunch of zombies in front of it's legs, to protect it and help it get nearer. And 2, it's so big it can throw zombies at you if you try and escape. So to dispose of it, you'd have to kill most of the zombies in front of it to expose it's weakspot, have a player try to flank for a instant-fall back of the knee shot, or duck into the nearest doorway, where it would come by and you'd have an easy chance to kill it. I'm having trouble coming up with a fair damage mechanic though

Actually Hunter were people that did parkour. Hence the duct tape around their wrists, their hooded appearance, and how they can jump from building to building

L4D1 wasn't "dark themed" it was literally just a cliche zombie movie spoof.

L4D2, in turn, was a spoof on pseudo comedy action filled monster movies.

L4D1 was 28 days later, L4D2 was the 2004 Dawn of the Dead.

The best part is when my friend came over to play vidya, they noticed my mods, screamed "what the fuck is wrong with you anon" and beat me over the head with a controller for a solid 20 seconds before they let me explain i made it cancerous on purpose.

>>257650515

Versus was a tacked on after thought.

The fucking game was born from NPC bots armed with nothing but knives chasing human players in Counter Strike.

>>257661703
I noticed this was in the demo for 2 they released a bit before launch. I thought it was fairly cool and was disappointed when they removed it.

Hunter was an inner city parkour type guy who wore a hoodie. See pic for details.

The zombies in that mod are 100% human players

I'm not sure why, but that was the highlight of my L4D2 career.

Why would you put a survival horror game in broad daylight

>>257664771
The Suffering had a big nigga like that and he'd spew mice from his corpse. They were often on the beach where there was beached slave ship

So instead of shit posting, how about we get a versus game going folks, post steam ids.

>>257662543
That's the role of the jockey you fucking retard, he's a distraction/support infected.

>>257650416
How would a single human mutate into something that size?

Boomers and Tanks are pushing the limits of the bodies they've infested, and the Meatwall looks to be at least twice the height of a tank, and the width of a boomer, and it's skin is somehow loose.

They must be made of like 4 guys.

>>257650416
They'll never use the Screamer because of retarded "Volunteered" beta testers.


What I DO want to see are animal infected enemies, since the "Green flu" shares symptoms with the rabies virus and the common flu, its very likely to infect wild animals and domestic one's as well.

Now imagine a bear, an elephant AND an ostrich infected animal!

I miss playing Outbreak games...

It's not a horror game, it's an arcade shooter with zombies.

This Enemy should be made as scary as possible.
Like when He erupts his faces peals off and his rips are pushed straight out.

Can you imaged what that zombie must do in it's free time?
It goes around eating rats, and it passively feeds them human remains it picks up, while it's own immune system must keep the rats in somehow.

L4D isn't supposed to be "spooky" you fucking retard.

they should make a fedora zombie called the tipper

i'm going to be making a competitive mod for l4d3 called promode

the only thing im hoping for is less shitty hitreg and thinks that take skill to shoot like hunters

Do you guys think lfd3 will actually be coming very soon? i sure hope so.

>>257674495
I'd say 2015

>>257670248
>not getting the mars attack aliens as your common infected
its like you have shit taste or something

>>257674650
He wanted it to be shit though

L4D is a really delicate balancing act and has one of the shittiest communities in any game.

They really can't add more infected without absolutely fucking up the balance of the game.

I'd really just suggest togglable options for certain infected in the default game with each game having it's "token" infected

>L4D- Hunter, Boomer, Smoker
>L4D2- Spitter, Charger, Jockey
>L4D3- Whatever fuck they want, really

And then theme the tank/witch to the level/game.

Also, fuck those faggots in game and in this thread who rush from safe house to safe house. Yes, it works, but you're essentially the rushing faggots that ruin RTS games.

Fuck you.

>>257674908
now if he wanted it to REALLY shit, he couldve installed the MLP character model replacement mods

>>257675291
Too obvious

>>257662543
L4D doesn't take skill because it's supposed to be about players against players.

Daily reminder that SMoker is best special infected.

>>257675643
>Not charger

Whatever you say

>>257675810
>Not Jockey

That little fuck has the second highest health in the game

What about a special infected that's tall and thin, almost like stick figure.

It has large claws and moves really fast, and does double the damage and health of a normal zombie or something. Basically a melee attacker

So it could run in while a horde is forming, and sort've disguise itself amidst the chaos.

Or it could try to target a survivor by itself. Idk.
