Turtle Rock has been quite busy lately! *Holy hell! New weapons, boss infected, and maps as well!

[basic]

hellllllllllllllllll yeah.

i never knew they were intending to create new boos infected after the game comes out. thats badass

[toxictbag]

hool10 has, today, won himself a internet!

[darksora2323]

hellllllllllllllllll yeah.

[NickThatQuick]

Pretty cool map, I love how (well it looks like) the infected knock down the corn cobs.

[Asura]

Oh my god, oh my gooooood =O
WHIIIIRR!!

[Rannos]

New weapons, boss infected, and maps as well!
I didn't see or read anything about new weapons or bosses in those scans. Then again, you can't really read the first two.

[QuotidianTemerity]

Booth says, "We're already planning additional campaigns and Boss Infected, and we're playing with new weapons," Booth says. "Eventually, I want to have enough Infected types to ensure that Survivors never know what they'll run into."


Awesome.

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

the infected knock down the corn cobs.
that would be realy freaking badd ass
and its in daylight!! more bad assnes to it!!

[No Shelter]

Holy shit, better than I thought. This game is ownage.

[KashMunni]

OH My Gawwwwd thats fucking sexy... I want to play this game so damn bad!!!

This mornin i was walkin down the street.. foggy ass day.. and i kept thinking about zombies...

I wanna play! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[toxictbag]

I say we all get together and create a zombie virus now, im sure someone in this forum has the ability to :P the rest of us can just spread it about :D

[Dead Fish]

Yes!! Thanks a lot! That's exactly what I've been waiting for. New screens. =)

This is arguably the most awesome zombie game ever. Cornfield looks great; and it has daylight! :D

Luis is standing on a truck. And since the headlights seem to be on, they might as well be driving. That looks like a cool finale.

I wish I could get that magazine here in Europe..

[ShadowSlayer7]

DUDDDEEE this is sooo frkening AWESOME!!!

The other day I was hoping and praying sooo bad that those werent the only zombie bosses.... WHOO! i cant wait to get this game...

ALDSFJASLDKJFLASJKF;WELKAJFS;LKDJL;SKAJ

I CANT EXPRESS MY EXCITEMENT RIGHT NOW!!!

XD

[No Shelter]

And since the headlights seem to be on, they might as well be driving.

1. It would be stupid to be where he is if its on the move.
2. Maybe its just an abandoned truck with its lights still on, doesn't mean its moving cause in other maps there are cars like that.

[Cool Cat Carl]

Cornfield looks ten times better than I could imagine it.

YOUR WINNER!

[hool10]

Hopefully I can get around to it and find it at the newstand or something. I can cut out the pages and use my scanner which is really good. I had a specific idea in my head on how it would look like. Then I'm in college and I just said mentally "I wonder what hl2world is up too.....HOLY SHIT!" It's exactly the way I envisioned it. It looks like you start out at 4-5PMish and then end at late 6PM when the sun is going down. By the looks of it, there is a considerable improvement in the facial structures. HDR has really been put to use and I think it will play key roles in L4D. Other facts are that the Boomer can no longer survive a great fall. One of the strategies that Squerl and Frogopus said was that you can just drop into the group and explode. Before you would explode you would just vomit first. Still the blood and guts will splatter everywhere on you.

It also sounds like their procedural physics have really come into play now. I mean they mentioned the Boomers stomach jiggling over his overauls and we can see corn stalks bent over on the ground. No doubt they will rustle about alerting you to the zombies much the same with raptors in Jurassic Park 2. I'll see what I can do and pick it up! :-)

[basic]

oooh jurassic park mod anyone?

Someone here get a job at TRS, go ninja style and get us all a early copy of L4D.. Suure you may get fired + arrested for theft but hey we get l4d! its a good cause

[Etheallmighty]

that looks awesome

i think one of the new boss infected needs to be a type of hunter that just crawls really fast on the ground, like the tongue thing from the first resident evil movie.....without the long tongue. cause in the cornfield he could be coming at you fast, but with the high corn u couldn't see him until very close!. that would be EPIC!!!

and the part where they say they're making more weapons,etc....it's right after they say their primary thing is PC, but I'm guessing they'd come out with updates for the 360 game as well....(when i sign in to XBL it prompts u to update, takes a few seconds....done it on Halo3 and other games a bunch)


-anyway, woooooooooooh new map pics... man I wish there were some birds eye view of it or something. we all know the first time that you play this map you will be so disoriented and have no idea where to go in this cornfield, and will die. there is no denying this. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, it will be AWESOME!!

[squerl]

Awesome, great find.

[Conde]

Awesome, great find.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeee........

The sheer concept of this phrase is enough to make me want to cease existing

[gorgoth]

AHHHHHHHHHHH HAVEN'T READ ANY POSTS SAW TOPIC CLICKING LINK NOW ARGHBRAH!!!!

[gorgoth]

That is so awesome! I love this! But I have to admit, I am slightly disappointed the cornfield mission takes place at dusk/dawn. I want night! That way you can't see the zombies in the corn. Ooh! It could start at night and end at dawn!

[POTTENI]

YES! I was hoping so much for a map that takes place in daylight, that cornfield looks awsome.

[gorgoth]

How dare you defy my will! To the plank with you! Eh, I think the daylight map should be a small town.

[Cool Cat Carl]

So we got a rural and city map. I hope the other two are a city at dawn/dusk and a rural setting at night.

City Map-reach top of an apartment (Lame I know)
Rural- I think a lumber mill might work nicely.

[A DUCK]

think about a rural map that has a finale in a slaughterhouse :)

[Asura]

As for the new pics and info:


Boinnnggggg!!!!! There goes the zip on my flies!!!!

[Puscifer]

That is amazing just read through it, great find Hool m8.

New Weapons/Infected :O

Cornfield is the best thing i have ever seen, farmer infected man, he boomers gonna fit right in with the cornfield lol

weapons... If they add an MP5 im happy

Infected... The Spitter: he/she is really fast like the hunter but his special ability is to spit fast progectiles of blood atracting say a third of the amount of infected that the booer does.

[Puscifer]

i would like a desert styled map with tumble weeds blowing around and kakti all over the place ,with like a little shanti town with huts and sheds etc.

and i can picture he finally ending by getting on an old ford wagon/truck, and the person driving can run over loads of infected.

[squerl]

Never thought of that, that would be awesome :D

[Puscifer]

Never thought of that, that would be awesome :D


yea i think it would be a nice contrast to the maps we already know about, and it just seems right, There are only so many different environments in LA they could use really.

But then again who says they have to use different environments every campaign?

I heard somewhere they have 2 urban and 2 rural campaigns in mind, maybe the second rural one will contain a dessert map.

and the Carnival map has got to be done!!!

picture a closed down carnival with flickering lights everywhere in a dessert setting, drive in cinema any1? wih the projector casting eiree shadows of infected!!!

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

new guns: MP5, AK 47
melee weapons: machhete, fire axe, baseball bat
Maps: cruise freaking ship!!!!! cruise ship!!! CRUISE SHIIIIIIPP!!!!!

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

shut up!!
everthing is always at freaking night!!!! i love daylight things!!! there more scary because you can see the horde coming at you in full sight!

[Puscifer]

there more scary because you can see the horde coming at you in full sight!

yea they cant all be night maps i think it should be 50/50 tbh, the cornfield map looks like its set at sun rise/set so thats going to be amazing!

i would defo like an MP5 or an AK 47 to be added, with the amazing skinning style the weopans have an AK would look sexual...

[toxictbag]

Real time light would rule

Like you start at the afternoon, then as you get nearer to the final part it slowly phases into night! It e great if they could pull it off

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

indeed thats coowl!

[Plankie]

Looks interesting. Not quite what I had imagined though.

[hool10]

No such luck on the mag. They only got issue 12 where I live. It's &quot;GFW&quot; which is Games For WIndows Magazine issue 13. But I think you can get a free years worth of the mags here: http://www.valuemags.com/freeoffer/gfwvm.asp

[globalenjoi]

Is that subscription legit? Or are they gonna end up billing me, etc?

i just emailed X-Play from g4 telling them to do a segment on l4d...if they actually listen, (which is unlikely) that would be sweet! so many ppl watch that channel! spread the word like forest fire! yay...
anyway, maybe second rural should be by a lake, like Lake Michigan

[shadowhunter]

awsome!!

[Sifer2]

Wow I pictured the cornfield map in my head an it didn't look nearly as good as that lol. I hope it doesn't lag my PC out. I think the other rural map should be a foggy town at night or early dawn like Silent Hill.

Im also glad to hear they will support the game after launch with new campaigns, weapons, an infected to play as that's great news. I hope some of the future campaigns offer stuff like hunting for randomly placed key items. Yes I actually like that part of survival horror games sue me.

A foggy map like Silent Hill-ish would be nuts... No outline to find teammates, and they can get lost 2 feet away from you from the fog.

[basic]

^^ that would be a smoker's dream map

[Armored_Zombie_Cow]

i still want some kind of &quot;hold it off for 10 min.&quot; kind of 'experiment' map...
if u read my other one about D-day, then u could also have one where u were just like on a radio tower or something, and u see em coming by the hundreds, and climbing teh tower

[lilsamuraijoe]

this is a classic idea. The bloom effect on it is pure joy. I wonder if there will be any zombie cows...

What we really need though are zombies in a...
1. train station
2. highschool. (zombie jocks : D )
3. airport/airbase.
4. military base. (lots o' guns)

Yep those are my ideas.

[A DUCK]

Places i hope to see eventually, custom or made by trs:

1. A Carnival like someone else said
2. A grave yard
3. A slaughter house
4. A junk yard

Thats all for now. :P

[darksora2323]

2. highschool. (zombie jocks : D )
cant kill kids they might have a rating problem

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

2. A grave yard
thats so... already done......FUCK THE CRUISE SHIP! AND SILENT HILL

[tonjohn]

This map reminds me of the opening scene in 28 Weeks Later where the dad has to run from all the zombies in the field and get on the boat. Incredibly awesome! I got shivers down my spine just looking at the screenshots - I can't wait to play!

[dontleave]

I read up on the ending in wikipedia, sounds epicz0rz... Coincidentally, I was telling my friends about the Web- Bot project and 2012 a couple minutes ago...

[wowzerss]

i should start going on the forums again *orgasms*

[MrIrony]

These screenshots make me want to cry because I'm not actually playing this game.

So far, in every video and screenshot I've seen (except maybe for one), the Survivors always stay in a very loose formation, running ahead guilelessly and occasionally looking back to make sure they're being followed. Granted, a lot of the videos are from people who are inexperienced, but I think a strategy I would try to enforce/encourage with my friends would be to keep the group together at all times.

Obviously, this is easier said than done, but it shouldn't be as hard to do as most of what we've seen in the videos, should it? I imagine when Infected are pouring out of every crevice, nook and cranny, any kind of order to your little squad would be hard to maintain, and that's not even mentioning what the boss Infected could wreak as havoc.

Hey, did somebody mention something about trying to develop an actual zombie virus? I've been working on one for a while now, I just need some vectors...

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

[Red Devil]

Wow, he said something thats not about a stupid ship..

[Red Devil]

*GASP* He said something that doesn't involve a cruise ship! Grats!

The screen shots are really nice, im glad they're coming up with something other then night fights.

I think it would be really cool, having something in a winter setting. But thats just me.

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

*GASP* He said something that doesn't involve a cruise ship! Grats!
uhm thit i?
well here it is!! i wanna SInking cruisefreaking ship :D
just the please the red devil :D

[Punisher 36O]

ok so, 4 campains with 5 maps each. . . would i be corect in thinking that 1 map is the section between the safe rooms with the big metal doors?. . . as seen in manny of the vids thus far. . . they get to these rooms and are safe, get ammo and health packs. . . .

now where could that happen in the woods? are there lots of sheds? what yas think?

[asu]

now where could that happen in the woods? are there lots of sheds? what yas think?
maybe some caves / abandoned mining tunnels (like in First Blood - the 1st &quot;Rambo&quot; movie).
Edit:
There could be other kinds of buildings in the woods, e.g. sawmill; some kind of hunters hut...
...treehouse? :D

[hooray for zombies]

...treehouse? :D

...with dead children? :D

[Punisher 36O]

im also hoping for a dangerus river crossing with a few cool ways to cross the same river, all leave you open to atack with no where to run. . . it would be harsh but awesome!

[Lostlyle54]

OMG!

In the latest PC Gamer on page 52 there is short article on L4D and they mention the LAST two maps!!!! but unfortunately does not go into further detail, it said.........of coarse the Hospital, cornfield,.....AIRPORT AND MURKY COUNTRYSIDE!!!!!

[squerl]

Great find lyle :D

[Shrubberyjsc]

Gives a new meaning to fighting off the masses to get on your plane.

>=)

[Dead Fish]

Airport, yay! :D

Hopefully there will some action on the airstrips, meaning some huuuge, open areas.

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

indeed airport will kick arse!!
but dont you think the country side i better?
nice wide open spaces... zombies.... guns.... hell maby more farmland.....
i think the country side will be the hardest of them all!

[MrIrony]

Do you think the airport will include a parkade level?

Those aren't actually Infected, just really angry people that got lost!

[darksora2323]

New info is good, but I dont think its enough to tide us over before launch. coughBETAcough

[Puscifer]

OMG!

ohhhh yes, thanks for the info!!!

The airport is gonna be amazing, advertisments everywhere, shiny floors, loads of seats/luggage trollys for the tank to throw around, esculators, luggage conveyer belt u gotta go through, MALL???

finally ends with rescue by plane, u have to wait for it to land fighting of the hordes, and maybe go to a control tower first to get it to come in:)

another rural campaign sounds brilliant too, i cant wait for some videos/pics of these new maps!!!

[Teknobry]

You get on the plane, door shuts, zombies banging on the outside...plane takes off, you relax in your seat staring at the hordes below.


Whats that noise?



ZOMG!!!












http://www.cinephobia.com/snakes3.jpg

[Etheallmighty]

WTF LOL!?....anyways cool info though....so does country side mean, just open fields (not corn?).....I would love for there to be a huge field like in 28 weeks later, their laying on the ground, then the camera angle goes up a little bit above the 3ft brush to show tons of infected running towards, then it goes back down below the brush...idk just random thought....



ZOMFG!!!!!!!! I just thought of the COOLEST most REDICULOUS idea for the airport map....lets say you have to get to the airstrip, you can do this by either going the simple way, just fighting through the airport, but a different side path you could take to get there is by crouching, then going into where your luggage goes on the smooth escalator conveyor belts (like where they go in Toy Story 2 and lol)....just your whole team being on one as it moves, theres tons of different paths to take in the interworkings of the airport conveyor belts, some will take you to different parts of the airport, some outside to the airstrip (you don't really know), but zombies can still come in, jump down onto yours from a belt above yours, or run at you from in front or in back on yours (good place for hunters and smokers also!)........it's a quicker path than going through the whole airport, but you have to be more careful because you could fall down off of it into the depths and die.....i don't know if you can understand what I'm trying to picture/get at, but it would be awesome.

-also think of the witch in this situation...the director has let up, ur team is moving down a conveyor belt (one in which you know leads to the airstrip) and right as you can see the light at the end, you (in front) realize there's a witch sitting right at the end of it....so your like &quot;SHIT GUYS TURN AROUND GO BACK GO BACK THE OTHER WAY!!! and then your team has to frantically find/jump onto a different belt next to or down below yours to try a different route....also a cool way to get separated from your team :O

[MrIrony]

That is the most ominous baggage claim conveyor belt I have ever seen.

[Mibtao]

Maybe the countryside could be mountain/forest region. I think that would be pretty cool

Well, it does specify the countryside, but it didn't say anything about the Airport.

So I guess we should have know about the countryside.........

Edit:

Oops, I missed that.

[Dead Fish]

Well, it does specify the countryside, but it didn't say anything about the Airport.

Well, it says:

2) Another urban area ending in an airport

I was just startled as to why nobody took notice. :P Also, that could mean, that it's only a small airport (like the last one or two maps, for example), which would be only half the awesome.

[Shrubberyjsc]

So does this mean that the airport will only be the finale, or the second half, or what?

Hmmm....

=S

[Mibtao]

could be the middle or beginning

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

indeed the midle

[Kit]

That is some scary looking shit! Imagine being in those corn fields XD or in that old house.. hehe good luck surviving that..

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

[Stickgore]

Omg dam zombies! How dare they hurt that beautiful corn! Take the survivors instead!

Cornfield looks spooky. And awesome. It must be quite the sight to be running around outside of it, and then watch a smoker pull one of your buddies into the corn kicking and screaming.

Though I wonder if hunters will be allowed to cloak in the corn. Sigh. That corn is going to make a whole generation of gamers paranoid of farms.

Well I got a free issue and scanned it so we can read the text a bit better. The link to the new scans are found on the same site: http://www.hl2world.com/bbs/here-vp710370.html#710 370 (http://www.hl2world.com/bbs/here-vp710370.html#710370)

Nice, I hadn't been able to read the part that says that the boomer has falling damage before. His guts still attract the others! COOL!

Thanks.

^.^

nicee THX

[squerl]

Awesome scans hool, those are awesome screenshots they gave the magazine.

[Dead Fish]

Eventually, I want to have enough Infected types to ensure that Survivors never know what they will run into.

yay

[Puscifer]

Thanks hool, those screens are so good:) The infecteds running animations are brilliant and going though those corn fields is gonna scare the shit out of me:O

[Arya]

Those screens are soooo sweet. I've been gone for months and now there's so much stuff out about it!

Your avatar scares me.

And puscifer's doesn't?!

That map is going to be so kickass. Imagine a smoker dragging someone into the corn - the survivor would have no chance at all.

[Reptile]

I hope the corn is realistic. It'd be cool to stomp or shoot the corn down.

I want to see the corn move when the infected rushes in the fields.

Btw, first post here.

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

welcome!!!
and i think the corn does that.

[OBLITROX]

The corn does fall down when they hit it because of the physics.

[Eddy_of_the_dead]

see?? see!?

welcome!!!
I never got a welcome when I joined... But thats ok... It's not like I'd cry about it or anything... I wouldn't do that... :(
Cornfields looks amazing! :D You really get a feel for what the campaign is going to be like just from the pics! I wonder what the airport and the other one are going to be like... !

[Reptile]

Thats excellent.

I hope we get new media soon! I want to see this map in action.

[Armored_Zombie_Cow]

wait so the boomer does take fall damage? i didnt know!
also, when u kill the boomer, the guts attract the infected just like the vomit?
i also didnt know! yay! its a goldmine of knowledge!
i can see how playing as boomer would be fun
EDIT: oh i see, i got a better look at the pic, and i see taht if the boomer dies of fall damage, he explodes, but not lethally, then the blood attracts the others...hmmm, interesting

[Master_Bungle]

Welcome!
:D Thank you! Now I feel at home :)

That's gonna be awesome... So am I right in thinking that now when a boomer jumps to his death in the middle of a group of survivors (who are standing close together) they will all get covered in blood? Or will the corpse of the boomer attract the infected who will just attack nearby survivors? (Rather than them being covered in it, like the vomit does... Cause maybe that would be a bit too good...).

ahaha oh plz...

if your posts ever contained more then 10 letter u would have room to speak. But seeing as they don't i believe u my friend... can GTFO!

[daleluck1313]

When a Smoker pulls a survivor through the corn, does the survivors path (pulled) towards the Smoker get trampled or simply pushed aside slightly before going back to it's original position?

That would be so cool.

[GuStick]

THIS IS AWSOME !
I can see it now,as a hunter hiding in the corn,see a survivor and at the worst time possible for him ...I JUMP AND SLASH THE HELL OUTA HIM

I think i need a psychiatrist...

[GuStick]

and a cruisefreaking ship :D
How about a desert with a stranded cruisefreaking ship,dont ask how it got there...

[dontleave]

Clearly a Giant Octopus stranded it there, in that movie that I can't name right now but had a very ambiguous ending that would hint to a seqeul but the sequel never came, as far as I know.

[GuStick]

Is it an movie about aliens ? coz i think iv seen that movie...
Close encounter with the third kind,or something like that

[dontleave]

No, it's a cruise ship that get's sunk by a GIANT OCTOPUS. And the survivors get stranded on an island, but before the movie cuts to credits you see a bunch of trees shaking and the ground shaking implying the presence of another oversized creature. Frankly, the last 5 or so minutes were the more interesting.

Sucked ?

I thought you were talking about Deep Rising until you said the rest... Being on an island and everything....
Anybody seen Deep Rising? Cheesy as hell and all the better for it! :D

[dontleave]

It might have been, I meant near the very end, the survivors got stranded on an island, and that's how the movie ends.

[Hona]

Holy shit, I have looked for that movie for a long time, anyone remember the name?

Edit: Yepp, Deep Rising is the one

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118956/

[dontleave]

That's definately it.

[Master_Bungle]

Hehe, such a hilarious movie! Anyone notice that nobody ever has to reload in that movie... Not that I noticed anyway... So many great one-liners from the main hero too.

Don't remember that far back.

I know in one of the levels, it might be the cornfield, the final boss is a giant enemy crab. You and the survivors have to hit its weak point for massive damage.

Yeah, he's just shitting you. People like to do this, as if they can fool anyone else. Same thing happens in Steampowered.

[Sifer2]

Yeah Deep Rising was awesome actually. Was pretty gruesome how the Octopus thing slowly digested people. There was that one unrealistic but still freaky scene where it spits a guy back out that was eaten earlier an he gets up an runs around screaming missing like half his face lol. An also that part where the chick gets pulled into the toilet an basically just exploded into blood everywhere.

I actually kind of wonder if Resident Evil 4 got its Jet Ski escape ending inspiration from that movie. I wouldn't put it past them since in REmake I think the shark scenes were clearly inspired from Deep Blue Sea. Another horror movie I liked.
