[candyman25]

sweet infected video nice find

[dontleave]

Nice find, youtube has shit quality though...

[Puscifer]

nice one man thanks:)

[basic]

nice!

[hool10]

Yeah pretty bad vids. Only thing that is new is the glowing hands showing where you can crawl up walls. You can shoot while being rescued to cover your buddies back also.

[Nemesis_vs_Leon]

yay, the infected side

[Etheallmighty]

I feel bad they got owned in the first room with the t.v. in the 2nd youtube vid lol.....and u can see like 10 "this person shot a team mate" in the left during that.

in the infected vid is that red line on the floor the path that the survivors have walked on or something

[Dead Fish]

Turtle Rock also implements an automatic vocalization system. If a player backs up in a hallway and hits a teammate, they'll automatically say "Back up!"

That's cool. I didn't knew that.

It's the path they're most likely to take.

Why did Bill go down on his hands and knees at 3:07 in the first vid? What was he doing?

Hey that's cool. It looks as if there will be a toggled 3rd person view for Infected (see it at 24s into the 4th vid).

EDIT: Man, one skill we'll all need to unlearn when we start playing: constant, mindless strafing. It's painful to watch.

[iRelentless]

Great finds. Didn't the glowing hands on walls used to be a static overlay of blue glowing feet? I prefer them how they are now.

Looked sort of like he was helping someone up who was just off camera, not sure though.

Yeah, I once found a zombie server which had FF on, peoples strafing combined with 8 people in one area caused so much FF that me and a mate ended up having to go a seperate way every time as a 2 man team, which wont be an option in L4D.

i don't know what to think about those yet, i think we'll be playing it enough to know all the routes for infected anyway.

I don't think it's toggled, so much as it happens with certain actions. Hunter goes into 3rd person when he punces on someone, survivours get 3rd person when bandaging, getting chocked, pounced, ect.

In the Infected video, the Smoker is using his tounge to strangle someone below so it goes into 3rd person.

Was that a Smoker? Assumed it was a Hunter. I'll have to watch more closely, next time.

[Chronos]

It's definitely not toggled. You shoot your tongue, go into third person, and have no control over your character until you wrap your tongue back in or they're saved. I hope you can at least cancel the choking though.

[Deek]

It's definitely not toggled.
I know there's a 3rd person cam that kicks in for various reasons (such as the Smoker tongue). The only reason I thought it toggled in this case, I thought the Infected was a Hunter (just assumed, I guess). Since the Hunter has no extended long range attack, and no reason to go into an auto-3rd person cam (other than the pounce), my brain immediately thought, "toggled 3rd person, woo!"

Got excited, jumped the gun.

Meh.

[dontleave]

Definately not toggled, it also goes 3rd person when you get whacked.. as a survivor.

[DogTurtle]

lol i can see the guitar hero logo reflection in the GAF video.

and another thing, is it just me or does it look like the smoker has a flashlight in the video with infected play?

[Zombie Ade]

The infected gameplay looked interesting, would love to see more of that.
If TRS cant release footage from a different campaign the I`d at least like to see a good amount of footage from the infected side.

I`m interested in the cornfield / rural campaign now.
"Rural areas with wide open spaces and intermittent tree cover play "totally different" than the urban areas, according to Ashton."
Wonder how the hunter will deal with the lack of tall buildings in the outside.
I`m really looking forward to the rural campaign , would LOVE to see some footage.

Does anyone know what the other two are? I cant see what else they could do apart from city and countryside. Nothing feasible springs to mind anyhow.

[Deek]

Man ... if they add a toggled 3rd person cam for Infected between now and '08, you guys are so pwnt. >=)
