There was the survivor pack for L4D - with survivor mode and the lighthouse map. I think that was it. it was free atleast.

For Valve to release L4D2 so quickly, they had to be developing it before they released the first one. This is ridiculous. I don't feel any need to buy L4D2 because L4D is less than a year old.

They started developing immediately after L4d.

Hell - Madden and NCAA come out with a new game every year.

L4d is so short after playing the same maps over and over 1000000000 times within a week, it is time for some change. I can't wait for Fallout 4. I don't want new DLC I want new Fallout Universe and I have to wait about 2 more years.

Oh that makes sense for any developer but Valve. Class updates for TF2 take half a year, HalfLife2, Episode 3 is nowhere to be found, see development times for the first two episodes, etc.

It's just frustrating to have them obsolete a game I'm still playing, and that's still relevant. If TF3 was announced for next January, I would be equally confused. It's just not Valve's style, so it threw a lot of people off.

I think a lot of it has to do with Dead Rising 2 coming out.

Also according to the Kotaku article I am getting the developers felt the game to be incomplete.

L4D will still be popular, maybe some paid for DLC would have been sufficient with all new maps, characters and weapons - But from the sounds of it they completely improved upon the entire AI and gameplay.

I'm not about to boycott or anything =p I guess I was just so shocked that it was coming out so soon. This is Valve! I might wait for a price drop though.

I don't see this as a fuck you. I see it as I already killed 5,000,000,000,000,000,000 zombies and it is time to move on.

Bring on the roaming witch, charger and boss characters.

I want a new Fallout game - I wont see that for another 2 years you think I want to fork over $10.00 for micro games - that is a fuck you to its fan base.

hehe - to KYA and the rest of the boycott crew.

Also, based on how absolutely insane L4D2 looks, I find it hard to believe that these people, who are supposedly rabid L4D fans, will be able to control themselves and hold off purchasing the game, especially when all of their non-boycotting friends tell them how incredible it is when it's released later this year.

yeah i dont understand that boycott. People should be boycotting madden every year. i think madden is more guilty of releasing the same crap every year. From what i read, L4D2 seems to have more than enough new content to justify a purchase a year later. its more than a roster update at least.

This is kind of the crazy thing. You hear the beta tag thrown around for a lot of buggy games, but Left4Dead was, in fact, the buggiest game I have ever paid for in my life. So many obvious and annoying bugs that should have been caught before release were exploited day in and day out. Some bugs were fixed by the community before they were fixed by Valve!
