Witches are supposed to look like that, it's their art style, it is what it is. If you actually look at Zoey in the games she doesn't have anywhere NEAR as much uh, stuff.

And shes standing up, not leaning down.

crap. any idea why is that every single time an update or new DLC comes in for L4D2 there are always corrupted files?
is there a workaround other than uninstalling and reinstalling the game anybody?

If you sacrifice Zoey at the end she say, "This is the last time your gonna see these... Guns." :lol:

EDIT: Yeah the Zoey in the comic was drawn for dudes. :wink:

I'm holding off on playing the new campaign until I can play through with a group of friends, but I did play No Mercy in L4d2, and I have to say I'm pretty upset that zoey uses Male animations. In l4d, zoey has her own animation set (I think all the characters do) which fits her. But the zoey in l4d2 runs like a man, has a hunch, and and stands with her legs far apart like francis. It looks super weird.

The environments and game-play are on par with the official maps. The length is good as a whole campaign, but the individual maps are quite long. (only 3) We were having a really hard time getting past the first crescendo event on expert, so we had to bump it down. (Played on L4D1)

I gave a chuckle when Louis read the Japanese on the wall in the safehouse. Other than that, The Sacrifice was more or less the same experience wise. I do like the ending sequence, however server mods (for example, infinite tanks and such) keep ruining that experience once I reach the end of the campaign where we need to sacrifice ourselves. The sacrifice itself is a little anticlimactic.

The art seems to vary between artist to artist. The interesting thing that I like about the l4d art is that they are intentionally all different looking. Zoey in all the posters has a varying degree of bust size, even facial features seem to differentiate between posters. Some may say this is just continuity error, but my assumption is that it's an intentional choice when, in reality, they could just use the 3d model as a reference if they wanted pure accuracy.

I played it with friends and was surprised how difficult it was compared to the other campaigns. I'm pretty good at L4D and L4D2 and it took us several attempts to get the bridge up. Unfortunately I played the "Hero" and sacrificed my self, but was very disappointed at the anti climactic ending. Overall I liked it a ton.

Really? I've never found it any less than fairly easy, even on expert.

So this has been getting a lot of talk about in japan.

Pretty funny what some of the people have been saying. The kanji is off on the first character, though only certain aspects of it so you get what they were trying to write. It seems almost like they purposely overcomplicated it! XD Either that, or it's the chinese variant.

"Whichever developer wrote that hasn't learned Ra yet, huh?"
"Toilets in Japan have these messages often..."
"I don't think I would write '...' after a name like that ever..."
"It's probably just a gaijin (foreigner) practicing his writing in public."
"oh, horizontal writing!"
"Yeah, I know right? It's probably someone of the younger generation. He's probably a zombie right now. Taki will come around and shoot him."
"Don't be so angry at a foreign staff for trying so hard to write Japanese. Though, the 'love' is a little different."
"If it's a girl's name, it has to be really old. Like, before WW2."
"Will this mean L4D3 has a Japanese survivor?!" (I hope so)

Ahhh I love Japanese forums and their readiness to jump on foreigners at any chance they get. I took a few liberties with the translation to make sense of them, and I only really picked out the things that stood out. To be honest, like I mentioned above, I laughed at the fact that they made louis know Japanese, but I find it surprisingly fitting.

Saw someone playing it on a japanese ustream channel, and his comments were similar. Except I personally talked to him about it. :lol:
