Yeah especially when they said "judgement cannot be passed on L4D2" and basically said they're sure its a good game its just going to split the L4D community effectively nullifying all worth of a product they had just purchased less than a year ago. Yknow, their actual stance and reason behind the entire thing.Vanguard_Ex said:
It's a lot smarter. The special infected actually try to work together now. You'll have Hunters serving as distractions for other SI. You'll have Smokers pulling you into witches. Boomers hiding behind alarm cars. Those are just a few examples.Mrsnugglesworth said:
My pleasure. Well all of the weapons feel different, for example the vibration feedbacks have been altered for pistols and also they move differently when they shoot. They don't fly upwards with as much force anymore so they're easier to use and you can fire quicker. All the reloads have also been made to look more authentic and they look like a lot more effort has been put into the weapons. Also the game itself just feels different, like the weapons are more scattered around rather than coming across a table and findind the 3 guns laid out perfectly. It feels more like a survival horror.Mazty said:
Ah I knew someone was going to get unnecessarily defensive over that. In fact that wasn't influenced by media at all, because I like you I realise that the media lie, a lot. No, I actually talked to some of the boycotters, although admittedly it seemed that many of them were boycotting for different reasons. Many of them said that they were boycotting because they wanted the L4D2 content not to be a new game in its own right, but rather an add-on to L4D. So I'm going to forget you've needlessly insulted my intelligence because I know that if you are an intelligent, reasonable person you'll at least calm your approach a bit.Taerdin said:

I've quoted you again Mazty because I want to read this bit which should've been included in my first answer to you:Mazty said:
"talked to some of the boycotters"? Did you actual read the 'manifesto', because that's what I was paraphrasing. I can't help feeling you misunderstood something, because I never took the boycott as having that view, ESPECIALLY not the leaders. But perhaps the people you talked to misunderstood the boycotters views themselves, or had their own views, its hard to say. I mean I could say people from the united states are all gay, based on talking to a couple gay people from the US, but that doesn't make it a fact. It's just an observation taken from an entirely too small sample size.Vanguard_Ex said:
In L4D: The AI director controled the spawning of infected and survivor items. It used a varying number of factors to determine how many horde to spawn, when to toss in special infected, and where special weapons would be found. It you were doing too good, it'd throw a little extra at you and vice versa.Mrsnugglesworth said:
Ugh, that's very different. All of the boycotters I talked to had different views, not all of them had the views I gave an example of. I'm fully aware that this wasn't an example of what the group was founded on. You really do strike me as assuming I'm somewhat of a retard.Taerdin said:
Completely different? I think some of you are trying a little too hard here. Completely different would be like, a mellow puzzle game. It has new features but its essentially the same game. If it wasn't then they wouldn't call it Left 4 Deadwilliebaz said:
Your OP really comes across as being solely a jab at the boycotters, which to be honest I'm sick to death of. People are so incredibly hypocritical, constantly whining about how the boycotters are whiners, and stating their views as stupid and uninformed while not actually informing themselves as to what their actual views actually are.Vanguard_Ex said:
