If this game is like L4D, and the update that was just put on there where you get ****ing crazy amounts of medkits, pills, pipes, and mollies per level to where you can all be in red at one point in the map, then have 4 medkits and 2 pills waiting for you in the next area, will you still play this game like everyone who is the from the L4D ladder and liked the game, play it all the time or even keep the game?

The original L4D was amazing, then they patched it. After that patch it was still playable, then they came out with this most recent one, and now the game is completely and utterly ruined, causing half the community to quit.
Still, with how horrible L4D 1 is now, I wouldn't sell it. I'm not going to play it competitively anymore, but I'm not selling it.
Hopefully Valve doesn't tinker with this one and learned their lesson with the first so we don't run into the same problem here.

The first few patches were great examples of bug fixes and game improvements.
I mean one of the biggest problems with our new patch, was something that come to the game during our first major patch. (T2 spawn points being equal).
Every patch so far has made the game harder. Be it with AOE tank hits, a melee meter, or adding smoker damage and tank health. Maybe you enjoyed those new early tank spawns, or the decrease in damage of the auto shotty.
My point is that the vast majority of patches have helped the game, and while many people seem to be complaining about the new patch I can't seem to find any evidence of what they are talking about.
People are complaining of more kits per map, but in my searches I just can't find more kits than normal. Are people sure this wasn't just a temporary bug or something?

We should keep emailing Valve telling them to put a setting in game for medkits and pills. I don't know much about how a game is made or what needs to be done so this is available. But if they can add more medkits, I'm sure they can regulate them, right?

Bull ****, there are stills tons of kits around.
And explosives too. Which makes the game almost unplayable.
L4D2 is using what they say is the AI director 2.0 in this game so it doesn't seem like spawns will be so linear. Maybe instead of a team getting shat on and a team getting babied they'll finally just screw both teams. I've never seen that before in l4d.

L4D 1 is so laggy right now ever since that last update. I guess ill still play this game, but not competitively. I was pleased with the L4D2 demo, so i'll be switching to that when it comes out.

If you care that much about med packs, you must suck at 3n1's.
The way L4D1 is currently patched is great. Not that many kits anymore sometimes none on a level.
Only thing that would improve the game is making vs mode on advanced difficulty so zombies actually did dmg when they hit you.
Realism mode should be good. I won't play a GB on l4d2 without running that, period. If you can't play in realism you must suck.

No, I just care about noob teams finding every single thing they need to survive a map they shouldn't.
And 3-1s are like 50% luck on your side, and 50% the survivors fault if it happens. I haven't been 3-1ed with my team in like the past 3-4 months on the ladder, but that's also because 90% of the infected on the ladder is horrible.

Nobody's infected can be good enough to make you use every HP. Unless their survivors suck. We will have to wait and see though...

And you don't see how having to rely solely on 3-1s is a bad thing?

All it takes is one executed rotation attack to set it up. You don't wait or miss anything to get a 3n1 setup. I don't rely on them but it's definitely a game changer just like a tank spawn

It is, but still, when u spawn all it takes is one hunter to get gunned outta the air or a dead stop to wreck it, you shouldn't have to have a 3-1 to kill a team, enough coordinated attacks should do it.
