BF2S Forums Left 4 Dead Official Blog

If the smoker is trying to pull one down from the open ground then he pretty much have a huge risk of getting killed fast at the lift that is, when you walk along the roof. When ever I'm smoker I always pull one down at the last truck because that's when they have to walk really far unless someone rush to open the door. Also incapping one before they jump down the hole to the medkit cabinet that person is pretty much dead. So yeah its a hard map. Feels pretty long to, but that's because the reroute on that map.

We managed to pounce one above and then boomer got in and boomed the 3 others while he was on the upper level, they really couldn't do much because being boomed on and IC up their ass.

True about steam forum getting flooded by whiners now that their melee to victory doesn't work anymore. I really hope they leave it as it is now. Feels more fun getting to the end now.

Not like we asked for our money back when Dice decided to change a lot in BF2, we just kept playing.

A number of matchmaking improvements on the way.

Notable features:

• Support for custom campaigns, including finding dedicated servers running the maps, showing which custom maps your friends are playing, and directing them to the download location.
• 4 v 4 matchmaking. They're finally going to implement a system that allows you to search for another group of 4 people. FINALLY. No more team of us 4 friends again 4 randoms meaning we steamroll every single time and they all quit.
• Improved skill-based matchmaking. I had no idea there WAS even skill based matchmaking but apparently there is. I've seen zero evidence of it.

All in all good update. Oh and if anyone says April Fools i'll e-punch them.

Louis. And Francis. Oh btw. New blog post, about old box art attempts

I quite like this one

I kinda wish they went with that one.

I don't like the box art they chose tbh.

Hm, Louis looks more like Mos Def but I can´t place Francis

I imagine teams will be placed near a weapons/ammo cache. But what about health packs, pills, and cocktails/bombs? I know you're not supposed to be able to last a long time, but will teams be rewarded with helpful items the longer they last? Or will that stuff be given outright, you just won't have time to use it?

In any case, I'm excited Mainly to be able to play two other maps on versus, but survival mode seems like a great pick-up-and-play kind of mode. I have to have quite a bit of free time to get in some L4D. Oh and the new mode will hopefully also make killing 54345 (or however many) zombies quicker

Wow I didn't expect it to be finished so quickly! Too bad I'm at home my pc is at my uni house!

Well if they have no clue what to do you're better off playing with the AI survivors instead...
