Where's it all gone?

Post by Exterminatus » Sat May 16, 2009 9:37 am

I've noticed that for whatever reason (probbably L4D servers not showing on L4D main menu) it's getting frustratingly harder to get even a measely survival going. This is really cutting into my zombie killing action. This has nothing to do with the big update since it's (obviously) not out yet, and it's been like this for weeks. Sure I could always play with some randoms, but it's nowhere near as fun as playing with the Fester's Place crew.
Come on guys, let's pop some zombie heads, eh?
Great job, BBloke!

We could have said the same for TF2, it went through a period where there were very few regulars on the server. Coming up to updates TF2 does get busier, and in general that's where the good times are being had.
Server is super busy and that's brilliant, any day of the week you can go on an have a good game.


Still love L4D though, i'll come pop heads with you later man.

Even after saying this you have the nerve of starting your game and not even ASKING me. I swear advent, you, Fester, BBloke and everyone else in that game is on my "to get revenge on" list. But you especially. You don't know when, you don't know how, but it's gonna happen.
Repeatedly.
Great job, BBloke!

I offered the olive branch of peace, my own slot on the server, when you messaged me.
But you refused, scorned my gesture of reconcilliation, spat upon everything i hold dear.

Very well then, if it's a war you want, tiny little spy man, a war you shall have.



At least until one of us gets bored and forgets about it.

I was already in a game. I try not to make a habit of leaving L4D games midway through the map. Also, I'll prolly forget about it tomrrow, just really irritable right now.

Good for you, i hate when people leave mid game. It's hard enough to get a bloody round started.

but tis all true what Advent said.. with the update of TF2 coming it brings people back to the game.. and i am sure when L4D gets another update it will bring people back to it.. People are like sheep they follow the crowd :P

And appearantly, the L4D SDK beta has been released, so it might be a good idea to keep eyes open for good custom maps as well. I know there was a mall map in the make even before the SDK came out that looked damn sweet. I'm sure there's more to come.
