Damn you work filter
If they charge PC players, game over for l4d
Re: Chet says "DLC Announcement Soon" - cbre88x - 12-29-2008
Announcement is coming soon. All campaigns will be on Versus mode. Plus some new campaigns and unannounced shenanigans. 360 and PC DLC coming simultaneously. L4D SDK coming very soon.
They talked a lot about story telling in game. Crecente tried to talk Portal 2, but Chet wouldn't budge. Uhhh..ect ect.

Also..really? That's very doubtful. As much content and as much money as they make on digital goods..They don't need the money. One of the main reasons they never update TF2 on the 360 is because MS won't let them dish it out for free.

I played a hacked version of Death Toll. The first map is going to be a bitch for infected.

Considering how Valve has completely fumbled L4D so far, I wouldn't put it past them and why isn't the SDK out by now?
Seriously...
TF2's SDK was released a MONTH before the game went beta and like 3 months before the orange box hit shelves. Servers are still broke as shit, I stand by my previous predictions that the game will be dead in a few months if valve doesn't fix things. And releasing a new map or two isn't what I'm talking about.
No Incentive to host servers -> No one hosts -> No Communities stick with the game -> No Custom content cause there's no where to put it -> Dead Game
Something tells me too valve won't keep those servers they have up forever too, they will gradually cut back though, leading to worse pings for some people and longer wait times when it searches for servers.
They could fix these things, but they've really shaken my trust so far.

They know our complaints with the matchmaking system and I'm pretty sure it's not an easy fix.

Actually it is an easy fix, here's what you do, when you assemble the group in the lobby you add another button, there would be 'search for a server automatically' or 'open browser and look manually'.
When you look manually it just opens the browser as usual then the party leader selects a server and that sends a signal to everyone else to connect to it, if a password is needed the player will be prompted to enter one.
Any party/lobby detail is stored and after the match it remakes the lobby for everyone. This honestly could take someone a week, two tops, to code, test, and patch.

I doubt anyone at Valve has been working for the past month.

Re: Chet says "DLC Announcement Soon" - WTF Joel - 12-30-2008
lmao, they're on cc2's server. Epic.
Re: Chet says "DLC Announcement Soon" - Surf314 - 01-05-2009
Still no DLC? WTF?
Re: Chet says "DLC Announcement Soon" - KarthXLR - 01-06-2009
I hope it comes soon.
Wasn't the first TF2 DLC badlands anyway? That didn't come till 3 or 4 months after the game was out, so I don't see why everyone's stressing out about this.
Re: Chet says "DLC Announcement Soon" - Mission Difficult - 01-06-2009
They need to get the server shit sorted out before they even think about DLC. And the SDK.
