Left 4 Dead

no my computer can probably play it with most settings on high beautifully

i'm talking about the computer i'm on at the moment, which... isn't as good

Black screen, I can only hear.

Time to get a new graphics card.

Okay. I tried this demo on easy, normal and hard so far and I have to say it's a very good demo. Maybe me and my brother will split the money to get it, but so far I haven't had much difficulty with this game. I was only downed twice in the demo, and on hard (got stuck fighting a hoard and forgot to watch my HP and ignored defending myself when using the mounted chaingun.)

Shotgun is a great all around weapon with enough ammo to get you through a level.
SMG... well I didn't use it that much so I don't have a verdict on it.
Assault rifle seems like a good weapon, though I think I'll run out of ammo for it in the real game.
Auto shotgun looks like the normal one but with +2 shells and no pumping, though I haven't used it much.
Hunting rifle seems kinda cheap, since it has lots of ammo and you can just one-hit kill anything if you can aim decently, though I don't think it'll be good for hoard fighting.

I haven't gotten attacked by a Witch yet, though I was surprised when I managed to sneak up on her and she survived a headshot from my hunting rifle. What does a Witch do when she actually gets you?

I only fought the tank on easy, so no verdict on their difficulty yet.

Smokers are annoying when they catch you by surprise and so are Hunters if they get to jump on you.

Boomers are alright... as long as you don't get surprised by one/they sneak up on you and you kill it and vomit lands on you then... yeah.

I'll probably go on the hardest setting tomorrow.

witches knock you down instantly, I believe.

then they proceed to rape you while your teammates may or may not be able to help get it off you

this gives me such a rush i love it

dracon: play it online.

it becomes significantly harder in advanced/expert

i haven't tried anything other than expert.
also, i like how everytime you play through, the zombies come from different places, making it seem like a completely different level, just with the same goal in mind.

right click

should i get the demo y/n

but it doesn't help if they're already on you!

yes

play expert, expert makes the game so much harder than advanced it's almost too much of a difficulty jump (PLAIN OLD zombies go from doing like 5 or 10 a normal swipe to 20 per swipe)

Auto shotty is practically broken, dude. You obviously didn't use it too much. It fires as fast as you click and does the most damage per clip than any other weapon in the game by over 400 extra damage. Hunting rifle isn't really cheap, you have to crouch or walk slow to get it completely accurate, and shotgun and automatic weapons are better for hoards, yeah.

instant rape

I love the SMG and Assault Rifle. Aim at the heads and you can take out a whole damn swarm. It's so fun and quick.

When a witch or tank attack I don't love those guns as much anymore. :[

dude the M16 can murder tanks

not as fast as the autoshotty can, but it's second best at pure power after the autoshotty

I still love being the team SMG and AR user.

On Extrem it feels pretty weak on the tank though. :[

I keep ending up the last one alive and limping awaaaaay

Thats what I was thinking. When we get to new weapons, I always pick autoshotgun because it can instant-kill any weak boss in a shot, possibly more, while it can take down a tank in like 10.

tanks have 8000 hp

a full autoshotty clip does about 2500.

basically all 4 people pelting a tank with constant autoshotgun rounds can take it out near instantly

why did you say "i still love" when i complimented the M16 (AR)

Uh, I've tried shooting at a tank more than 4 times with an autoshotgun and it didn't die. Are you basing this from the multiplayer stats? Because infected are heavily nerfed in that :V

well of ****ing course 4 shots from an autoshotty won't kill it... you need 4 complete sets of 10 shots
