Thank for this.

EDIT: Already seen.

[Warhawk]

"awsome team killing in impressed voice" the girl is very blonde.

[Elvis]

the guy that was playing mentioned that the friendly fire is a option that you can toggle on/off ... i hope this is just for the 360 Version because that is something essential to the coop experience. It also would get to easy if you can´t hurt teammates ...

I agree, with FF turned of it becomes a spam fest of Molotov's and Pipebombs.

[Er0y]

Actually this guy is wrong. He really doesn't know a whole lot about the game if you watch the entire show. He gets A LOT of the facts wrong.

[Stevo]

Actually the girl knew a lot more than the guy. Which makes her somehow hotter :D

[eXiLe]

already seen, anyways thanks for the vid

[DanTehMan]

Ye, she's kinda hot :P

[Sikboy1029]

Should have let Kristin play instead :P

[Crack5800]

there both ignorant on all things that are L4D...they shoulda called one of us!!!!

[DanTehMan]

But the the whole show would be Left 4 Dead... OMG.

[Crack5800]

THATS A GOOD THING xD

[elite hunter]

i hope this is just for the 360 Version because that is something essential to the coop experience.

WOW NO, why the hell would it only be for 360? kinda dumb stuff is that. He is completely wrong friendly fire is always on. Impossible wouldnt be very impossible with friendly fire on

[Crack5800]

i hope this is just for the 360 Version because that is something essential to the coop experience
wow....really now? 0_o

[Biohazardous]

This is being played on Blood Harvest, correct?

Oh and I can't believe this. I had no idea about car alarms and metal detectors in the game! That's gonna make it even better!

[Sikboy1029]

there both ignorant
you mean they're? >:)

[Crack5800]

they're
yes.......sigh...*murmurs in annoyance*

[USS_Stud]

Actually the girl knew a lot more than the guy. Which makes her somehow hotter :D
Yeah, like "melee weapons".

[Shunk]

"what about the friendly fire?"

"its a setting you can turn on and off.."

just wow

[Crack5800]

they really deserve a good kick in the nuts for not being up to date on their L4D

[KingKon21]

Yeah, like "melee weapons".
Yeah, since when has a gun been considered a melee weapon because you can hit people with it. In that case, everything is a melee weapon, like molotovs.

[pheonixDBF]

Not that much longer guys were almost there and teh best part is im having a sleep over when it comes out. System link and everything
hopefully my team can beat this game before the morning.

[USS_Stud]

Yeah, since when has a gun been considered a melee weapon because you can hit people with it. In that case, everything is a melee weapon, like molotovs.
And breathing, because they can FEEL it... with their skin. Yes. I'm soaking in this logic like a sponge.

[KingKon21]

I'm soaking in this logic like a sponge.
That whole video is filled with logical information.



That is very, very wrong.

[Crack5800]

That whole video is filled with logical information.



That is very, very wrong.
hahah.....it's amazing how ignorace can be portrayed as knowledge

[krunsh]

I agree, with FF turned of it becomes a spam fest of Molotov's and Pipebombs.

I don't see how it's bad to have the option to play without FF, you just turn it on and no problem.

Casual player who are bad at FPS can turn it off if they want.

[InstantDeath]

They got mainly all their facts wrong and at the end the other guy (Bud, I think) got left ON FIRE in bleed out mode and the other guy is just jabbering on about somethin'. Wouldn't like to be on his team. :P

[JC Flake]

I liked the parts in the video when he got the constipated looks on his face because he was trying to give information he didn't know. :D

[Kenny]

I'm almost positive that FF cannot be turned off in Left 4 Dead.

[Dre]

naw man, i remember exactly in a interview on GT, where mike himself or chet said that friendly fire can NOT be turned off in ANY difficulty level, but that could have changed, but from that video, it is NOT changeable, unless they made same last minute changes before the game is released.

[Deadly]

Exactly. It has been like that since the beginning. You can't have a game focusing around teamwork if you can just shoot through them all with no consequences. Which is why I am mad about the clipping through players thing.

[Puscifer]

how is this the demo when the demo is "No Mercy"?

and the chap playing the game didnt know shit lol

[KingKon21]

No one said it's "the demo", its "a demo".

[Necrocide]

I don't think that's the Demo.

VALVe said the Demo will include the Hospital Level...as in inside of the actual hospital. As well as the area outside of the hospital.

[evrfighter]

I turned it off as soon as he said "made from a little company called valve"

that's just as bad as shooting yourself in the foot if your hosting a show for gamers.

[Thor-axe]

The guy was a complete idiot. He obviously just skimmed the overview of the game that Valve gave him and the answers to the obvious questions, because he didn't know anything about the game. He was unsure about every answer he gave, and he was usually wrong.

[armored cow]

I turned it off as soon as he said "made from a little company called valve"
As much as he was an idiot, I think that was sarcasm.

[KingKon21]

[Nesquack]

Wow. That guy playing knew nothing!



Holy facepalm. He has upset christ with his EPIX PHAILZ

[KingKon21]

EPIX PHAILZ
/facepalm

Do not quote other people without adding some of your own content in the reply.

[L4Dfanatic]

He even says u can share ammo and then corrects himself with "oh well im not sure about sharing ammo"

what a douche...


EDIT: ...HE LEAVES HIS TEAMMATE at the end lmao...again... what a douche

[Otreum]

Gosh, you guys take this so personal :S

Also looking at the comments on the youtube video...no wonder gamers like us are labelled as aggressive people, as soon as you hear something thats not the same as your opinion or something you've heard elsewhere, you go nuts like the guy has just killed your family or something...

The guy was playing the game right there and then, yet all of you who HAVE NOT played the game are saying "YOU CANNOT TURN ON/OFF FRIENDLY FIRE!! RARARARARARARRRR!!!"...
Yes, it was previously stated that it was not toggle-able option, however, as someone said earlier in this thread, "things could have changed since then".
If it is or isn't a toggle-able option, WHO CARES, just watch the gameplay video and enjoy, i'm sure most of you have heard plenty about the game to become self proclaimed experts anyway, so why does it matter if someone who reviews tonnes of games and can't spend their time drooling over every last drop of new content for l4d, gets his information incorrect (maybe he is correct?) according to what you've learnt?

You'll play the demo soon enough anyway, and then the full game, then you won't be watching any more previews or anything for it :)

I tend to agree with you, but keep in mind that doing this is his job, and doing it wrong makes this show worse than it could be.

[L4Dfanatic]

worse than it could be.

Agreed 100% hahah

[JediDwag]

I'm almost positive that FF cannot be turned off in Left 4 Dead.

Correct. There was, is, and still is absolutely no way to turn off friendly fire. Friendly fire is a integral part of the Left 4 Dead experience because it forces players to work together and be aware of their surroundings. There will be absolutely no way to turn it off. Period.

its not really that. its the fact that a dumb blonde and a douche bag are hosting a gaming show

[DanTehMan]

She is Hawt.

[Jones_GT]

How the hell does a Bozo like this guy get to play it when we have been waiting for over a year and still dont have a demo?

[DanTehMan]

I have been waiting for 2 years!

[FoxesInBoxes]

I think why most of the people are mad is because it's like the guy just quickly read over the information of the game, and then while he was playing the game, he wasn't paying attention to anything else.

Which, is understandable. To an extent.

It's his job to give people who haven't heard about the game or know little about it to give them the correct information, and him just being like "Duhhhhh....You can.....um....yeah." isn't really going to help people. I do appreciate that there additional footage, but it might have helped a bit if he'd actually put the controller down for atleast a second to explain stuff out ;p

Friendly fire is pretty important too. You take out friendly fire, you're taking out a lot of the game and toning it down. Turning it off would take out that tension about when people get swarmed. Do you help them by shooting, and risk hurting your team-mate? Or do you hope that he can defend himself? Or do you risk your own hide to run in there and get close to the enemies so you can help another out? It takes out those options if you don't have FF on.

[Davidek]

I would like to see a demo of the map editor ;)

[Platypus]

I would like to see a demo of the map editor ;)

It's called hammer, and you can use it now if you want.

[MP_Specter]

FF would make it so fucking easy. Just throw a pipe bomb in a group of your friends who are swarmed and bam. No more zombies.

[No Shelter]

I hate the little fire that appears on the bottom of your screen when you catch on fire.

[MonsterR89]

everything is a melee weapon, like molotovs.

That would kick ass.

*Bottles infected with molotov and explodes into a fiery self sacrifice*
