It sounds like Gears of War as an as an FPS instead of covered based TPS. Why would you wanna play that?
One problem:
In the trailer, it said, "two versus two tactical action".
WHAT.

WHAT.
L4D is 4 versus a horde of zombies and 4 weirdos with special powers.
This looks like 2 people shooting machine guns at 2 other people with a Gears style health system.Â
Could be fun. It's also small-scale play, which is an asset for an HL2 mod because you know those servers never fill to capacity. This is a game you can pick up and play with a tiny group of friends, meaning that it'll probably have a much longer shelf life than many other mods.
An example of a good 2v2 game would be Spliner Cell: Chaos Theory. Because like L4D, it pits two distinctly unique teams against eachother. In fact, we should all just go find cheap copies of that for $5 and play it instead.

Oh, man, I bought that like three months after release and never got a chance to play multiplayer because nobody was playing. Fuck. I'm all for it.

Problem is the learning curve is ridiculously steep, and if you play against really good people, you are owned more than you could possibly imagine. Also it uses Starforce, which I don't really want on my computer, but if a couple more people are interested, I'll play.

Oh damn I forgot about that. Wonder if the pirated version works... also I could actually play it on X-Box, lolololol.
