The long anticipation is over. The update’s here! Vavle‘s awesome game of the year, Left4Dead has brought waves of zombie lovers all over the world. From tactics, to planning to surviving to keeping each other alive… or not! Left4Dead is pretty much the best zombie game ever made! Since its release in 2007, it has brought many fans the excitement it can muster. But 2007 is so not today! People want more!

And so, with Valve’s ingenious updates, Left4Dead has brought itself to a whole new level that people will love. Although we didn’t get new maps for Left4Dead, Valve has released the Editor! Not only can you edit and make the game yourself, you can play it and share it with your friends.

Some new features in the maps are the updated building architechture; in other words, more hiding spaces for the infected. It has added new rooms and has given the players new places to duck and cover. Also, in the update, they’ve made the Versus Mode available to all the maps. They’ve also put a distinction between the Versus maps and the Campaign maps.

They’ve also updated the infected’s powers, so to say. They’ve given players more control over the Tank and had its health last a little bit longer. They’ve updated the blinding bile from the Boomer; and yes, you really can’t see anything. Given more pounce-ablility to the hunter and a longer range for the smoker. Also, depending on what the skill levels of the players are, they’ve modded the horde so they can spawn quickly in quick attacks.

As stated in Steam:

Survival Mode:

New Gameplay Mode

16 NEW Maps including Last Stand

Leaderboards; and

7 NEW Achievements

Versus Mode:

2 NEW Versus Campaigns

Fixing the scores even thought the scoreboard has opened up

And more…

All in all, this is, by far, the best update ever! I’m off to go see the new maps! So, we’ll see. I’ll try to make my own levels too. As soon as I’m done with all my projects and exams and jobs. Hehe

Comments and Suggestions Welcome!

I don’t think there’s a game company that has the best and innovative games as ValvE. They have been making games since 1996 starting with Counter Strike, to the Orange Box to the best zombie game, Left 4 Dead. They have certainly have ramped up their standards giving us games that have a storyline and some action that requires brains to accomplish.
