I've been waiting for this shooter for soooo long.....if you could get 32 of us (4 of which the survivors) in that game, thats an all new shared experience for us all, foookin cant wait.....

During TF2 matches, I've often fantasised about vomiting on an opponents face (I get angry, as you know).....should be a TF2 chant I reckon.

Bloody hell.. that would be awesome.... As a pipe dream it would be so much better if every one set there mics the same and it was a "voice activated" in game chat. Lazy wouldn't be around for too long!! muhahahahaha

All try Zombie Panic: Source, from what i've seen of L4D it looks just like it and Zombie Panic may be a mod but its really fun. Ever wondered what its like to beat a zombie with a frying pan or sledgehammer, try it. Me and feather have it and a few others, im sure if we could all join a server on that 'till L4D that would be fun. :)

ZPS has *major* physics issues :P
But, having said that, it's awesome imo :P
The weapons system and ideas it represents are pretty good in theory but they lack a bit in implementation, still... I love being a zombie :D

Oh that's a thought....they should include in Left For Dead the ability for one class of zombie to go invisible for a few seconds, disguise as humans, and stab people in the back!

You can deinstall game at any time and install it again later. Done this myself to save HDD space used by games I no longer play but still "own". Simple choose "Delete local content" by right clicking on the game in the My Games pane.
Or you you could put on your glasses and click on "Backup Game Files" in the right click menu, Angrr ... which is exactly what Johnimus needs.

This will create a backup of your game in a file size of your choice : CD - DVD or Custom (1 large file that you can drop on flash media). You will still need internet access when you re-install from backup media, because it has to verify that you actually own the game. I used it to move my TF2 from my old box to my new one and it saved a lot of time.

back to L4D.
I'm sure that people will increase the player limit as soon as it's possible. The only question is if the "Zombie AI Director" can adjust for it and how much resources this takes serverside.

4 survivors
4 undead(+ai zombies)
4 specs/queued (like in arena)

I dunno if BBRRRAAAIIIIINNNNSSS is too slow chant for the speed these things move at. It would have to be more of a suffling and growling, with a bit of barking thrown in.

Like a torrets convention.

But with a bit more biting.
