Honestly, all I saw in those videos were new maps, a few new guns, one or two new creatures, and that's it.

...a bit disappointing.

Game looks good actually; I really like that map. But nothing will make me like the new characters. I really hate them and they don't even fit into the game too well. NEED ZOEY!!

i'd prefer Left 4 dead 2 on the Frostbite engine (Bad Company, Battlefield 1943)

Get rid of the smokers, witches and uber zombies and just stick to regular slow and maybe some fast moving ones

GIANT frostbite engine levels (no more corridor shooter but frostbite can do indoor areas if it wants to) with zombies chasing you, running over zombies with vehicles, blowing zombies up through walls all while you're trying to get to get from point to point

You could basically re-create Dawn of the dead movie being in the shopping mall, millions of zombies around the mall....run over them with a vehicle then proceed to a boat...boat to island and kill zombies on island and live happily ever after

Ugh, some of the players in the those videos made me sad.

"Hey, you seem to be being attacked while you're trying to pick me up... I think I'll just watch."
"Oh noes, you're getting slightly overwhelmed. I know! *tosses a molotov directly at the person.*"
"An oar! I'm gonna go charging at zombies in the middle of everyone's line of fire!"

Whether this should have been a L4D addon, or has to be it's own stand alone affair, this game looks like a ton of fun to play.

Popping the heads off things is why I've been playing so much killing floor lately. And it's just .. Just great.
