Clavus Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 This new mode (designed to be shorter than the traditional competitive) has four survivors fighting to find 16 gas cans across the game map. Using the cans, the goal is to fill up a generator to win the match. Split up over three rounds, each starts with 120 seconds; each gas can will add an additional 20 seconds to the overall time. If time runs out, yet one survivor is still holding a gas can, the game will go into overtime until the generator is up and running or an infected knocks it from their hands.On the opposing team will be the Infected, who are doing everything they can to feast on human flesh and (of course) stop the survivors from restarting the generator. Not only can infected knock the gas cans from the hands of the survivors, but special infected like the "The Spitter" can light the cans on fire with its phlegm. Survivors must also watch their fire -- one stray bullet can set the can on fire as well.Valve are planning to ship Left 4 Dead 2 with six maps for "Scavenge" mode, each reconfigured maps from the game's campaign. "Motel" is one such area, and Hamza "The Shark" Aziz is going hands on with it as I type. Details, impressions, and more soon... if he survives.Videos:http://redirectingat.com/?id=629X1198&...eo%2Fid%2F26705 (shows new boomer!

Google Hoops Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) Is the jockey meant to seem homo or is it only me that sees him as homo, I mean the name as well sounds really homo.

Botervloot Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 But, as we wrap up our playtime, David Ellis notices a mysterious option in the menu as we wait for a new match to start: "Realism mode." I ask Faliszek, and he coyly comments, "that's a special modifier that we forgot to hide for this demo." We then ask Valve VP of Marketing Doug Lombardi, and he quips that it's something for the super hardcore player, and slightly elaborates, "Take Portal for example: We had our best internal players who could blow through that game in about 30 minutes, but within weeks of launching it we had people on YouTube beating [the testers'] times by 10 minutes or more. Realism is for those players."To us, the term "realism mode" screams that it will be a single life affair for a campaign. Once you're gone, that's it, there's no respawning. However, this is just idle speculation on our part. Once Valve is ready to reveal the full details on "Realism Mode" we'll be sure to pass along the news.Oh this is going to be fun...Realism mod: No zombies. Quote
Lemon! Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Btw, I know why people hate L4D2 so much.It's cause they are angry, and afraid of it. Loldone.I hated it too, cause I was sad, but overall It looks fun . Gonna buy it after all. Quote
Sgt. John Mullins Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) The JockeyHonestly, this game looks like a 12 year old got access to the L4D SDK. The atmosphere is completely ruined and made place for complete retardation. I have to admit, the scavenge mode looks awesome, melee weapons aren't bad -- however, that's something there should have been in the original L4D already! Edited October 11, 2009 by Sgt. John Mullins Quote
