L4D Crash Course! Out Now

[Gonad23]

Yes that's right Valve actually managed to release a product in the month they said they would (only just mind you). All you PC gamers will be laughing it up with your free copy whereas I cannot even play it because I don't have the money we 360 gamers need to keep up. It costs 800MP, although I swear it was only meant to be 720MP, not that it makes too much difference.

Please post feedback about the new campaign so I can decide whether it's worth me stealing my Mum's credit card to get it.

Not for PC yet..

I still think 800 points is way too much for something that's supposed to be free.

How long did it take? A year? I thought they would release new maps faster, but i was wrong and i got bored of L4D in a month or two. Well I'm not going to buy it, it's too long to make the game fresh again.

I have read it was meant to be priced at 560 points and may well be reverted back to that.
I also hear this campaign is only two chapters compared to the usual five. All in all dont think this is enough to bring me back to a game I left many months ago... especially with the sequel just around the corner.

Woo more achievements, almost got all the others.
Guessing these will be on PC aswell... Shall be a good packed night for Verses!

Sidenote/Edit: God I hate the official L4D forums, so much xbox v PC shit, with both sides usually totally against Microsoft...

Ironic, considering steam only supports Windows.

It's out for PC, as of now!

Took me awhile to connect to the download though, servers are pretty busy.

 

[ssgt splatter]

Could someone explain the Truck Stop achievement to me, it's a little confusing.

 

[oppp7]

Awesome! I can't wait to pl- oh, wait, it costs too much...

 

[Vanguard_Ex]

What a fucking rip. I just downloaded it with points my mum kindly paid for and it has TWO levels -_-

 

[FightThePower]

You didn't know that already?

Like when the survivors beat the second tank during the finale, the rescue vehicle shows up. You can still kill them while they all get into the vehicle. In Crash Course, if you can kill all the survivers in Versus when the vehicle allows them in, achievement.

This is well known. Valve said it would only have two stages. It was meant to be a quick game campaign, which is why is it called Crash Course.

 

[suhlEap]

i'm slightly sick of having to pay for things that should be free. it's not a dig at L4D in particular, just having to pay for anything like that winds me up a little.

 

[AkJay]

I tried DL it, but it said the servers were too busy, maybe later tonight.

It's 560 points, not 800...and it's not worth it - its short, rather boring and anti-climatic - it might be worth it if you like versus but steer clear is you want to buy it strictly for the campaign.
