They treat spitter acid as if it were fire, they STILL have no concept of grenades or molotovs, they STILL charge at you gung-ho with a medkit if you have < 50% HP, ignoring any and all other dangers (read: tanks) and if anyone gets huntered, jockeyed, smokered or charged, they will make a token effort to move in the general direction of the person in peril, however they are inevitably distracted by common infected and seem quite content to leave you to your death.Īlso, the pathfinding is made of arse. It's as if Valve simply copy/pasted the entire codebase from the original, and then hacked on support for melee weapons (although they very, VERY rarely use them). The original survivor bots weren't brilliant either, but then again the new ones are just outright fuckwits. All I want to do is play some single player! Is there any way this I can enjoy my purchase without going through this whole Steam process? I have spent 6hrs on this without even playing the game. And each time I want to play I have to log into Steam?!

Now I can't play it without it trying to update the friggin game, even if the status for the game shows Update Stopping.

I stop the download process in Steam and tell it to never automatically update my games.15 minutes later it shows 'Updating game.'.I click on L4D2 and it says 'Preparing to launch game.'.After installation, Steam loads itself up.I think to myself that this is it, finally I will get to kill some zombies. 20 minutes later, after Steam doesn't respond twice, I am eventually able to log in.I do not have one so I create an account. 1 hour later it asks for Steam account details.Steam cannot continue setup because of no internet connection.Fair enough, it requires Steam for activation I thought.

I insert the game and Steam starts installing.

I knew that L4D2 required online activation, and so did Crysis which I activated without any problems, so I thought L4D2 would also be fairly quick and easy. Now I don't have a internet connection at home so I use my cellphone to go online at Egde or GPRS speeds.

I purchased L4D2 last week and wanted to play it on Friday. Click here for a list of other gaming subreddits.
