We are playing a versus game in L4D2, join Dijinn's game.

Well, "known" here means that Djinn knew about it for nearly ten minutes by the time that post was made.

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Ah. My mistake then. :D
These days, when I hear "known issue", it's something that no one has bothered to fix.

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Okay, why don't we ever do campaigns?
Serious question here. Whenever we play Vs it's always horribly unbalanced, people don't get to play with who they want to and we always play it.
Campaign is fun and interesting and features significantly less trouble to set up than a Vs match does.

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
I personally have more fun on Versus, winning or losing side, than I usually do on Campaign. Chainsaw Massacre, on the other hand...

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Basically what Blackfox said. I really don't care much about balance, so long as I get to be on a team with at least a couple of people who I felt like playing with at that moment in time.

You just answered your own question there. Left 4 Dead 2 isn't for fun, it's for professional griefing, ie: playing as the Infected. That's why Infected is so fun to play, because you're griefing the survivors via irritating and pointless distractions/potential death.
Besides, that would mean infected bots. They suck at tactical and sadistic plans and are rather predictable at times. Humans are stupid, sadistic and hot-blooded enough to try insane/useless/humourous things, such as rushing the survivors as a Boomer, or charging past the survivors off a cliff, or being a hunter-kitty.

This. Campaign is l4d2, just without all of the good bits.
The good bits being competent opponents, and being infected. Not the stomps. That was terrible, and I feel kinda guilty.

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
I pretty much only play campaign mode Jibbers, so next time I am starting a game I will invite you :)
-
Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Agreed. Campaigns are like warm up or practise for versus. You can sort of see the similarities, but no-one's ever going to say "Let's go have a great time by warming up."

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
So, my friends and I cosplay and they've been wanting to do TF2 for a while now (even if I'm the only one that actually plays it...), and we're just now finally getting around to doing it. The 4 of us will be going as RED Medic (me), RED Scoot, RED Sniper and BLU Spy (with masks and an Intel case if we can find something that will work).
Figured you guys would like to see what I've got so far. I'm doing a womanly variation on the Medic, seeing as I'd never be able to pull of being a dood. Proper boots have yet to arrive and I need to order the right glasses still. I'm also making a Vintage Tyrolean to wear. And my roommate hasn't finished my medigun yet. But tother than that...

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS

I ask the same question periodically.
Versus sucks.

This is truly epic. In other news, that expression you have in the last photo is the EXACT expression that I mentally attribute to many of your phrases (it's hard to explain, but there are times when it really would fit). I'm glad to know that I was right.
...this does, however, make me sad that I could never pull off a believable Heavy. Scout, possibly. Spy, possibly. Heavy, never. :smallfrown:
-
Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
If I stuck out my gut a bit I might be Heavy. Soldier would be easier though. Too short for Engie, too stocky for Spy, Scout, and probably Sniper. Too white for Demo, too young for Medic, and too, err, adjective for Pyro.
Forced to be forever Heavy (Push out stomach), Soldier, or Sniper (suck it in.)

Oooooh and TF2 cosplay. I'm probably the right blend of annoying, fast, short, and skittish to act Scout.
-
Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
I usually enjoy campaign more, but that's because I like chatting to folks, which is also why I'm a terrible spy.
EDIT: Awesome cosplay, I don't think I could pull off any TF2 character, which saddens me...
-
Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Me? I need to get me a Combine Metrocop outfit together! Or.. something. If Britain actually had any conventions. And if I could muster the attention span. Oh well.

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Right, so. L4D it is, then, thanks for letting me know. For the record, I'm terrible and will die frequently :smalltongue: Normal can only be cleared once in a blue moon and I have about 7 hours of game time to my name.
And I'd be... Well, now that I think about it, there's no real doubt about it. Civilian.

Dear God, it all makes sense now. :smalleek:

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
Loved the L4D2 games. Realism versus next! Where you will die quickly as survivors, but have a great time as infected <3
I think I could pull off a decent engie, if I shaved, and I got some goggles.

Without sounding all too creepy, figured you were brunette (oddly imagining Player_Zero as a ginger, for instance). Costume seems appropriate so far, nothing over the top like this (LSFW, seriously).

(Emphasis mine)
Engineer is the shortest one of them all! Plus I'm sure you'd nail the accent.
Regarding Versus: Yes, it can be unbalanced, frustrating and generally leave the losing team with a dislike towards the random number generator in the sky™ (if left to random). But where else do you get the ability to play Infected and swing a forklift on top of two weary survivors? A bit of vitriol between teams shouldn't shake up so much emotion as to ignore them afterwards.

Haha, yeah. The section of leg from my knees to however far down the skirt comes is how much skin that's going to be showing. So, no sexy no jutsu Medic.

I mean, contradiction! After this, with the few remaining classes and personalities you'd have to adopt, Sniper would fit best. Hinting at breaking the fourth wall, a well meaning disposition and an actual intellectual capacity instead of the remaining few classes whom others would deem childish or whom would be attributed a form of psychosis which no one can replicate.
Although stocky myself, I'd might make a good Spy. Time to change into costume and find out!
EDIT: Why no suggestions for the Administrator / Saxton Hale / Miss Pauling?

Re: [Steam]Survivors Vs. Blu Team Vs. Gordon Freeman Vs. Little Babies Vs. GLaDOS
I'm on the tall side, but I'd say I'm Engie material.
