for some reason i have a mad urge to go and play the original again

at 1.20am on a friday morining. In norfolk.

[Fusty Gusset]

^Yeah it's like that. I got rid of the first one and then also the second after hammering them on their release...gonna pick up the original again Today. Hopefully it's nice and cheap, I seem to remember it clinging onto rrp for an eternity on the High Street.

Both of them can be grabbed for about £10 each now, if you know where to look.

[Fusty Gusset]

Good stuff - I'll be on the hunt. I'm itching for some co-op/vs. Do people still play the first one on Live?

Also will the new content be playable with both 1 and 2? Bit lost sorry.

[Lucas]

I think the Sacrifice DLC is compatible with both, but previous DLC isn't.

[Fusty Gusset]

Makes sense now. Cheers.

I stumbled across this the other day:

ALLO GUV. ALLO GUV'NOR. ALLO GUV.

IT'S YOUR NOOOOOOOSE

Hey buddy, ya mind being less obtuse I'd quite like to give the second one a go for cheaps.

If you have any independent game shops near you they would probably sell it cheaper pre-owned, but it's only £14.99 on Play.

My local Morrisons has L4D2 for fifteen quid. I assume this would be the case in other stores, too.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

The sacrifice is due out today, right?

Well I wish they'd bloody well hurry up and make it available to download at some point.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

mainly because the taaaaaaaaaaaaaank mutation sounds like the very best thing ever to happen

[Sekiro]

It better be out by the time I get home....

"Reloading!!!"

[mayor_mike_haggar]

it's about midday US time too, so it's not like they're asleep.

[Majora]

I think I'm actually more interested to see how No Mercy has been changed for L4D2. There's some bits which just wouldn't work with the new infected like the hospital rooftops.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

jockeys on rooftops would be brilliant fun! I bet that the finale's a hell of a lot tougher now. and playing the sewer bit on realism could be a real nightmare, so easy to get lost and seperated.

Maybe the zombies got them?

[Radish]

L4D just started updating for me. The file size is about 800mb, so I'd assume that's the DLC. No activity yet for L4D2.

(Steam)

[JPR]

Was the opposite for me and L4D2 was updating but not 1, restarted Steam and both updating now, says the L4D2 update is about 3.5gig. For anyone who hasn't got them yet Steam has them on offer at the moment, L4D1 is £4.41 L4D2 £5.09 or both for £7.81.

Well, bugger. I already own them both on 360, but how am I meant to turn down an offer of £7.81? Guess it's time to check out some fan campaigns.

[cultofweaver]

Does anyone know how the dual game thing works on 360? Will it just work with both games, or is it seperate downloads for both games? And if so isn't that monumentally shit since you'd need to buy the fucker twice to play it on Left 4 Dead 1?

No idea yet, but I'm sure Valve wouldn't do something quite that shit.

But god damn you Valve and your goddam Valve Time!

Doh:

We have released the Sacrifice for Left 4 Dead on the PC, for Left 4 Dead 2 on the PC and Mac. It will be released later this evening on the Xbox 360.

[Popo]

Steam servers too busy, yadda yadda.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

Yes, I am tempted to download it on PC now for some of the fan maps, and then sadly play it on my little laptop.

[noob]

weird...

i was looking for the new dlc on xbl last night. couldnt find it on there or xbox.com so i tweeted major nelson asking him if he knew about it.

got an instant DM which simply siad 'ask valve '.

[Curtis]

The Sacrifice is on the Marketplace. It's listed under both games.

[Sekiro]

The Sacrifice is on the Marketplace. It's listed under both games. But you obviously only need one.

Sweet!!!

[murray]

So it's the same campaign for both L4D and L4D2?

[cultofweaver]

A word of warning to 360 owners, both versions of the DLC are glitched to all holy fuck. People on other forums are reporting no-clip problems, AI scripting bugs that stop progress, spawn glitches in versus, graphic glitches and even that playing it resets all achievement progress to 0 (including Zombie Genocidest in L4D1, some people have gone from 40,000 odd kills down to 1).

Play at your own risk.
