So basically, it's new maps for the first L4D?

Engine seems very similar, the only apparent difference being that it all takes place during the day, not night, but that has little to do with the engine, but map design.

ah k, thanks for the heads up iNatan. Even if it is the same engine I guess thats not such a bad thing. If it ain't broke don't fix it! lol.

Well, the Source engine feels quite dated, so not sure how good it is. It might be good for this game, because of the ridiculous amounts of enemies, so it could be a sweet spot, but for other games it is getting really outdated.

s'true, as with all the comments in the PC thread too.. perhaps an expansion pack pricing would be more apt.. leaving a proper full blown sequel untill valve have a brand new engine out.
A full blown sequel should be different enough to set it apart from it's predecessor I would have thought, but if all the reported new features are just AI tweaks and a few new modes and a change of map setting. Then unfortunately Valve probably deserve all the aggro they may get from gamers who will be feeling ripped off.
Day time setting, new monsters, random map gen.. the changes sound rather cosmetic then something to truly look forward too. Luckily L4D's gameplay is pretty solid... but still...

The patches for the first one have been amazing, what is wrong with the game? I thought they have been doing a great job.
Granted I only play on the console version, but you mentioned the SDK, so perhaps you mean the PC version has problems?

He, and everyone else really, is referring to the lack of promised content updates. Patches for bug and glitch fixing have been forthcoming, but what content? Survival mode? "unlocking" the other two campaigns for us in Versus? Hardly awe-inspiring :-\

Well, I mean, he specifically used the words "still haven't fixed shit"... just curious as to what he thinks is broken.. should be funny. ;p

You know, someone mentioned EA, and maybe they do have blame here. What if they've put their foot down and forced Valve to make it a sequel. I'm not sure about this, because EA only handle the retail publishing, while online distribution (the main one for L4D 1 & 2) is handled by Valve (Steam).

Visually, L4D 2 looks like an expansion pack for L4D.

5 in the original, 6 in lfd2.
I think people are spoilt. I never played L4D but if fans are complaining they'll have to pay for the sequal, they shouldnt buy it. Fancy compaining about not having enough free afters? Since when did that become a requirement. Yep, definately spoilt.
Space for rent. Contact me for rates!

Actually 4 in the original, 5 in this one, I think. The complaining is because Valve promised a lot of content after release, of which they have released none. Nothing spoiled about it, people just want what was promised to them.
