Left 4 Dead 2: "Mutation" Ideas

[ClunkiestTurtle]

How about a mode where only people over 18 (ie people actually old enough to buy the game) are permitted to play and all the whiny little (mainly) American kids can just fuck the hell off to bed with their screechy high pitched voices and selfish game losing antics to let the rest of us be able to play a decent game for once.....

VIP mode, where one of the survivors(who will not be allowed to carry any primary weapons-pistols/melee only) is the VIP. as long as the person is dead the survivors lose. therefore the VIP is top priority.

or...

dwindling odds.
any survivor that is dead returns as one of the special infected.(ie-change sides). therefore the classic zombie-que scenario is played-a former comrade becomes one of them. so once you loose a survivor team-mate, your odds decrease drastically as the number of special infected is increased as the number of survivors decrease.

*edit*-darn, ninja'd

Nice idea. But replace the VIP with a boomer the survivors have to protect.

Left 2 Live

4 Infected try to infect all the humans on the level, while being stalked by 4 heavily armed Survivors. Humans killed become spawning points for the Infected when they are killed off.

The Witch is replaced by Ash, and the Tank is a Chieftan Tank.

I had this idea playing l4d today: me and a friend killed the other 2 ai surviors and tried to complete the campange. So basicaly, 2 surviors instead of 4, to balence it out have only 1 incaping specail infected (ig hunter/smoker/jockey/charger) at a time, and lots more normal infected. What do you think?

or a mode where you play the l4d 2 campgne with the original characters from l4d1 ?

lol-that's like 'left 4 friends' as shown in HAWP.

- "Bowling for Bile," a mode where any special zombie can have a bile effect on a survivor if they can chock/ride/pin a survivor for 12 or more seconds.

- "Dirty Mouth," a mode where the tank, rather then being able to throw a boulder, can instead either spit bile or acid.

- "Bombing on a Budget," a mode where the government have decided to bomb out your location for the greater good. However, do to the rather unexpected spread of zombies, they are unable to get to any of their typical ordinance, thus they have to go with a much cheaper solution. Basically molotov raining form the sky at random.

- "Wolf in Human Clothing," a mode in which one surviver has been bitten, but being the selfish jerk that they are, has decided to keep that fact hidden from the rest of the group. Basically at some random point one surviver per level gets turned into a special infected.

- "Improvised Weapons," since the survivers are ins such a rush they don't take the time to check the quality of there melee weapons. Thus each melee weapon has a random breaking point.

I have an idea: it'd be a regular [versus] campaign, and all the survivors would get pump shotties and chainsaws with unlimited fuel. For extra spice, you could change it around so that there's only one survivor, but he's immune to knockdown attacks and has four times the regular health. It'd be called "Groovy".

o god this so much
furburt would love this sooooo much

Ultra Survival
You must make it through a campaign but there is not safe rooms. You just have to keep going.

 

[Davey Woo]

Maybe something like "Protect the carrier"
versus game where the 4 survivors are given a bot controlled "carrier" who is of importance to CEDA (or whatever) they have to get to the end like normal, but lose if the carrier dies.

Would introduce a different sort of tactics, should the 4 special infected team members only go for the carrier? Or try to wipe the entire team.

I've got an idea! How about a mode called Witch attack? A 5-player mode. 4 players play as the survivors and 1 player plays as the witch No other special infected will spawn. Only common infected and a witch. If the player as the witch hits the survivor with her claw, the survivor dies, like the expert mode.

VIP mode, where one of the survivors(who will not be allowed to carry any primary weapons-pistols/melee only) is the VIP. as long as the person is dead the survivors lose. therefore the VIP is top priority.
I have wanted this mode sense I got the games. Here are some tweaks I would like to sugest.
1. The VIP is randomly chosen from the four survivors.
2. The VIP is NOT allowed to shoot a gun.
3. The VIP is allowed to carry three health packs, defibrillators, pain pills, or adrenaline, NO throw-able Items, and two extra weapons (which he can give to his team mates like he would pills).
4. The other survivors can NOT carry pain pills, adrenalin, health packs, OR defibrillators. But they can carry Two throw-able Items a piece.
5. The VIP is slower when carrying extra Items, but not when injured. Therefore, the VIP becomes faster as he drops/uses items.
You may tweak the above rules as you wish. Also add rules you think would enrich the experience. One last thing. It HAS to be verses, and no more the ONE special infected can spawn that can pin a survivor.
