As you're seeking out that elusive perfect score and being added to rage quit Steam groups, you'll notice it feels as spry as it was in 2009. Left 4 Dead 2 can get its ears pierced or be convicted of a crime, yet if you choose to boot it up for a night of nostalgia, you'll be surprised. Barbaric, you could say, but it's one of many peculiar bits of communal context that have ensured this game has become a weekly inevitability where many modern titles have failed to hold our attention.Īs of 17th November, Valve's atomic zombie smasher is 10 years old. Usually, they'll get pummeled by a charger and you'll have to head out and save them. Left 4 Dead 2's safe room doors have a serious heft to them, and as such, each swing animation creates a tiny window of opportunity for the survivor to get past your self-flagellating trap as they howl at you on comms. Funny Doors dictates that if you get into the safe room before a fellow survivor, in spite of earning those precious 25 points for letting them live to see the next round, you must hammer the E button to open and close the safe room door as they approach, turning the final moments of each round into one hilarious test of strength. That's unless you're playing Funny Doors. If you're lucky, you push through the pain and make it into the safe room on borrowed time, grab some ammo and shoot the charging zombies to carve a safe route for the rest of your team. your health bars stripped away by the horde, your eyesight drained of colour, signalling that one more knockdown equals permadeath. Maybe there's only two of your zombie-slaying quartet left. I'll be here for hours.When you get to the end of a hard-fought round in Left 4 Dead 2, you're usually crawling towards a rugged red door. Ooh, and this adds health bars for all the other players to your screen. This NPC mod attempts to make the NPC companions a lot smarter. But now, if I want, say, a full survival campaign set in a large valley in the north-western Ered Nimrais, I can just click on the Helm's Deep Reborn mod and wait for it to drop onto my PC. It was always such a fiddly game to work with.
There are thousands of Left 4 Dead 2 mods and campaigns scattered across the internet, so it's good to have an easy way to get at them.
I'd say you could do it blindfolded, but I tried and put my fingers in my Crunchy Nut Cornflakes. I don't know about you, but Nick in Left 4 Dead 2 just wasn't bearded enough for me, the apocalypse certainly didn't have enough disarmingly dressed schoolgirls, and why can't I make my melee weapons pink? These are all concerns that have now been answered with the opening of the Left 4 Dead 2 Workshop, Valve's integrated mod platform that makes adding picky little tweaks and full campaigns the easiest thing in the world.
