Left 16 Dead Doesn't Go Very Well

I agree, Funk. This was obviously chaotic. Although, I imagine this was online campaign.
Now, 16-player versus, if properly executed, will be absolute mayhem, but in a good way.
Now all I'm thinking of is how will a game of Survival will go with 16 people, and when we will get mods for L4D1 and L4D2 character skins in L4D2...
Quite the contrary, I think that would be amazing. Especially if you found a way to have the AI direct double the amount of zombies.
Better yet, have both a hunter and a jocky jump at you, miss with the (more valuable) jocky falling to his death and the hunter landing on the ledge below having to take a huge detour so he commit suicide instead, followed by the obligatory charger which hit a doorframe and was gunned down at point blank range and on the second balcony a tank finds out the hard way that he doesn't fit on the ledge either.Russian_Assassin said:
Not to be a buzzkill, it will probably end up with 15 people hanging from the ledge.
And yes, l16d sucks on maps MADE FOR FOUR PLAYERS yet it's completely awesome on maps designed to accommodate 16 people, something which the article fails to mention.
yeah thats awesome if it didn't totally lagged left 16 dead would be epic! just need the amp up the director to spawn 4 tanks and 8 special infected at all times!
Be no problem if they were in a city of 3 million people. That would be pretty damn awesome.
I'd love an MMO that was nothing more deep than "we've recreated the topography of the United states and put 300 million zombies in it. Your job is to survive. You can find shit and survive. That's it...you can betray people too I guess...but then you'll have a harder time surviving."
You need to acquire sustenance for your group, maybe build a base out of a mall or something, then as the schools of zombies (I like fishes so I call them schools...deal) move around the country some people get overwhelmed. Maybe have your rank identified by how long you survive. Once you die you make a new char with a new name and your old one ends up on a leaderboard. I'm sure someone would find a way to abuse and hide somewhere, but that's the technical stuff you fix later (with say infected animals that will kill folks who try to hide up the nose of George Washington at Mount Rushmore for a year).
Oh yeah and have actual limited bullet supplies
. That would be kind of neat. So the longer the MMO runs, the more hardcore survival becomes and the more sadistic people become. It would be like eve but I might actually want to play it.

Same here. It pretty much becomes a cakewalk. Doesn't seem like the AI director can keep up. Also notice how there are two chainsaw Coaches. Why would there be two chainsaws on the map? Seems odd.Daveman said:
I can only imagine how horrible this would be on the 360.
BTW: here's it with 20 players [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj9IaN_KFfU].
If the amount of zombies would be upped accordingly, I would've laughed a lot harder. Oh the delicious chaos.
