When i heard about the first one being released i was all for it. Who doesn't like blowing away hordes of zombies right? I enjoyed the game for the most part. But it just seems to get too much of the same thing going. Run, shoot, run, save a team member, and shoot some more. It didn't have much of a storyline and i thought the graphics could have been better. But that didn't stop me from playing it at all. After seeing the teaser at E3 2009 i was fearful that Left 4 Dead 2 might be the exact same as Left 4 Dead. But after reading up on it I think we're gonna be safe on that one.
Aside from new characters, levels and weapons (thank god) I cannot wait to splat a zombie in the face with a frying pan haha. Or maybe chop it off with an Axe? Along with the Frying Pan and Axe you are also able to use a baseball bat and CHAINSAW. Which i was hoping would be in the first one but i was saddened to see that it wasn't. There is also a new semi-auto, Shotgun and Sniper Rifle. Left 4 Dead 2 seems to be a completely new game, without taking away from what fans loved from the first one.
Left 4 Dead 2 takes you starting from Savannah and ending in New Orleans.
I personally cant wait for this game. The things they have tweaked on it are hopefully going to fix any of the problems i had for the first game. My one pet peeve was the limited weapons you could use when fighting the undead. And now some of the infected wear hazmat suits so im guessing they are going to be stronger than the ones without.
Left 4 Dead 2 comes out November 17th of this year.
There was a semi auto shotgun in the first one.
The infected in hazmat suits are immune to incendiary rounds (Tracer rounds).
Left 4 Dead 2 STILL looks like the first one with minor tweaks.
I mean pork back
