None of these are any good compared to the AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN. Even if one of the weapons you listed was an AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN, it's not as good as the AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN. Just like the last game, the many (read: three) assault rifles in the game won't protect you when the zombies get right in your face and you'll start wishing you had an AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN to save you instead of your tiny little baby weapon.

And the boomer bile is a stupid weapon. Sure, you throw it at zombies and more zombies attack those zombies, but then you have the delightful problem of more zombies.

And the daylight ruins the atmosphere and the guns are all pointless and the characters suck and the tank looks gay and the other boss zombies are rubbish and it's just not as good any more.

tl;dr: L4D > L4D2 and I've said most of this on /vg/ already.

what? awp > combat shotgun

its a one hit kill when you shoot a zomb in the dick ffs, with the same damage at all ranges. and the boomer bile is for a pissabout, mainly lock zombies in safe rooms. also the jockey is fucking scary.



tl;dr : with the AWP and a good aim the zombies aren't going to get in your face.

I was disappointed that the Auto Shotty is still the most broken gun in the game and the boomer bile is just asking for griefing. Melee weapons were awesome but now I have the dilemma of magnum or guitar. Tanks seemed easier but what got me was the witches walk around now. I shat a brack when I got the AK but sadly it was shit, couldn't even kill a hunter in a burst and runs out of ammo too fast compared to the silenced SMG and SCAR.

With an AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN, shooting a zombie in the dick will kill that zombie and anything standing near that zombie and maybe a few zombies behind that zombie and any zombies thinking about maybe entering that general area some time in the next few days.

Also, the AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN has stupidly high damage at the only range that really matters when you're fighting a purely close range enemy.

Also I'm kind of trolling now (hyperbole ftw), but I still do think the automatic shotgun is the best weapon in the game, just like it was in the first one.
>> No. 24003
I found it once. Doesn't have enough ammo. And, yes, daylight kind of wrecks it.
>> No. 24004

Since when is more zombies a problem?

Anyway, I'll probably be buying L4D2 for the same reason I'm buying MW2. Most people are moving to that game for multi-player.
>> No. 24015
Automatic shotgun is only good for team killing. THATS IT. /discussion
>> No. 24025
Can someone tell me what the tier 2 scoped rifle is. I'm thinking MP5 or G3, but I'm pretty sure I'm wrong.

Either way, loved the demo. The tier two scoped and machete are my favourite thing to get busy with. Gun for distance, machete to take down zombies that are too close for gun to be effective. I also like how they've changed the accuracy difference when running with the scoped guns. Feel like I can actually use them now.

AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN laughs at your minimum effective ranges.

And the gun's an FN SCAR-L, apparently.

I'm in Australia. Due to us not having an R18 rating for games, we've been given a heavily censored version of the game.

- Corpses fade immediately
- The blood is the wrong shade
- There's not enough blood

Apparently molotovs work, but just aren't visible. We don't get any riot cop zombies, and if one of us is in your game, you wont either.

I wont be buying it.

FOR EVERYONE THAT THINKS BILE-BOMB IS USELESS TRYING USING IT ON A FUCKING TANK
or when someone throws a Molotov...or both!
we were playing on expert and the tank came, it was stuck in the flames because of all the zombies attacking it. Made the rest of the level a cake walk since not a single one of us got hurt and we didn't get slowed down at all.

As Special infected go, Spitter is a lot more effective then I thought it would be, Jockey can be pretty dangerous if not handled quickly, and the Charger I'm not quite decided on yet.

Verses should be fun as hell
>> No. 24092
>>24091

Chargers are nice because they make things more intense, they're not that hard to sidestep but if you're not paying attention they will kill you really quickly.

I also like that the Witch can but doesn't always walk around down. My last game she was right after the park before you go through the narrow ally. So we had to choose if we wanted to fight her and get the 1-2 first aid kits or to sneak around her.
>> No. 24110
The new special infected are amusing, if ineffective. The jockey is reallllly loud, moreso than the boomer, the spitter gets her own musical sting whenever she's nearby, and her range is not nearly long enough to effectively get to the cornered group. Charger is the only threat, but he doesn't have enough health to survive his charge.

The boomer bile is an interesting concept, zed wise, even if it causes more problems than it solves in game.

Also, I fucking lol'd when I discovered the DEAGLE BRAND DEAGLE. (And when I discovered that melee weapons are amusing but ultimately ineffective compared to guns)
>> No. 24113

yeah, but the sheer fun-factor of slicing through 5 zeds with a machete makes it worth it.

Wiki says it is modeled after the HK-91, a semi-automatic variant of the G3.
I like the scoped rifle- kinda like pistols, but with better range and power. In the demo I enjoy using that against specials and a melee for hordes.

Can anyone here compare the feel of the combat shotgun and the auto shotgun?
>> No. 24999
>>24969

Yes.

The auto shotty has a wider spread and more slugs, so it hits more of the horde. However, the combat shotgun does more damage per slug, especially if all hit, and its got a tighter scatter range, making it an excellent choice for shooting medium to long range.

Point blank (defending a choke point from the horde) they do equal damage. So its more a question really of if you want to do more damage a little farther or spread out more at mid range.

STEP1: Go online
STEP2: Buy Left4Dead 2 from an American online distributor
STEP3: Left4Dead 2 Comes to ausfailia without censorship.
STEP4: Play uncensored Left4Dead 2 and have fun!

Do "direct to drive" games have region DRM? Also is that even a possibility?
>> No. 25021

But that might corrupt his young mind. Australians can't handle the kind of graphic material we other westerners can.
