Anyone heard of this game by Valve before?
I bet you do if you're a fan of Counter Strike and zombies.
The storyline basically revolves around 4 survivors which are Zoey, Francis, Louis and Bill and they have to survive the hordes of zombies aka "infected".
I'm introducing them all one by one including all the special infected(s) here. :D
Bill
William "Bill" Overbeck is one of the four playable Survivors in Left 4 Dead, a Vietnam veteran who served in the US Army 1st Special Forces Group. His combat skills have helped to keep him alive, he is also the oldest of the group. In official media, he is usually seen wielding the assault rifle, probably to complement his backstory. He is voiced by Jim French.
It took two eventful tours in Vietnam, a handful of medals, a knee full of shrapnel, and an honorable discharge before the unthinkable happened: Bill ran out of wars. But now an army of undead has declared war on humanity. After decades of aimless drifting and dead-end jobs, Bill's finally gotten back the only thing he ever wanted: an enemy to fight. - Official Description.
This old man here can outrun tanks although he's crippled and ALWAYS act as if he's the pro ending up incapacitated thanks to hordes of zombies during the Finale.
Fuck him, Vietnam my ass.
Francis
Francis is one of the four playable Survivors in Left 4 Dead. He is a large, tough biker with tattoos covering his arms and neck. His tattoos identify him as a member of "Hell's Legion", a name possibly inspired by the real-world Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club. Since his character model has changed, it has been speculated that Francis' new face was modeled after the head developer of the game, Mike Booth, and that he has the Lambda symbol from the Half-Life series cut into his hair. In the official media, he is always seen wielding either the pump shotgun or the auto shotgun. He is voiced by Vince Valenzuela
Cocky, loud, and pretty sure he's indestructible, Francis acts like the zombie apocalypse is the world's biggest bar fight. When the virus hit, everybody else stockpiled food and looked for a place to hide. Francis found a gun and had some fun. No cops, no laws, no order—if it wasn't for all the zombies, he could almost get used to life like this - Official Description
You know what, Francis is da bomb.
Always carrying a pumpshotgun or autoshotgun, he clears off hordes as if they were made out of papers.
He's my fav character in this game due to his leet tattoos.
Louis
Louis is one of the four playable Survivors in Left 4 Dead. For the original concept of him, he was an assistant manager at a local retail electronics chain store. Now he is a Junior Systems Analyst in his company's IT department. His clothing resembles the typical business man, but bears a resemblance to Shaun from Shaun of the Dead, who wore a red tie and white shirt. In official media, he is usually seen wielding a submachine gun or dual pistols. He is voiced by Earl Alexander
Louis had been working up the courage to quit his job as Junior Systems Analyst at his company's IT department when a virus showed up and downsized the world. Now Louis has a new set of goals (live long enough to succeed) and a new set of tools (guns, sharp objects, etc.) to help him achieve them. With any luck, he'll figure out how the new management operates before they get a chance to murder him. - Official Description
The nigger with an attitude. Cracking jokes and always there to lend a helping hand. But then, he's cursed. I tell you, he's fucking cursed.
Whenever I use Louis in any L4D games, I end up getting screwed after the game is over aka A VERY BAD DAY.
Although his attire looks cool, he's still a nigger with a curse than can beat Akon's ass any day.
Zoey
Zoey is one of the four playable Survivors in Left 4 Dead, the teenage daughter of a wealthy family. Zoey's face is modeled from actress Sonja Kinski. In official media, she is usually seen holding the hunting rifle, and dual pistols. She is voiced by Jen Taylor.
After spending her first semester holed up in a dorm room watching old horror movies, Zoey was given a choice: Stop fooling around and get her grades up, or drop out. Now that the planet's overrun with murderous zombies, and all of her professors are dead, Zoey at least has the cold comfort that she's been studying up on the right subject after all. - Official Description
Zoey is the only female character in the game, and the youngest.
A dual handgun user, she sucks at aiming and always end up getting incapacitated.
----- To be continued later.
There are special infected which may cause you to slow down such as Boomer(s) which will vomit it's bile on you and attract other infected towards you, Smoker(s) which can pull survivor for long distances rendering them unable to move nor shoot, Hunter(s)which will pounce on survivors over long distances.
There are 2 special ones as well, The witch [bitch] and the Tank [Good Game]
Neways, the reason I'm blogging about this is that first of all, I'm planning to go hardcore on it on versus mode, and second, Me and my team will be joining an upcoming tourney at Blitzone Damansara this 28th [Saturday].
The course of the event is Time trial, Only one try, Expert mode, and the shittiest part of this tourney is, we won't fuckin know wat map we'll be playing.
Neways, here's our team record after training sessions so far.
No Mercy - 30 minutes.
Blood Harvest - 5x minutes [ We suck at blood harvest]
Dead Air - 44 minutes.
Death Toll - 40 minutes.
Wish me luck.
PS : Louis is a nigger.
Will add more detail info on this post after my game of dota is over.
