the scream that u hear right before the horde comes was what the screamer would have sounded like they cut the screamer and used that scream for the hunters punce..although in this it sounds nothing like it :3
@hayhay643 mmmmmm but what if A survivor had a big mouth -lol- and eaten him then he was inside the stomach and died and exploded then the zombies would do what they did in Shaun of the Dead dig in the stomach of the person and rip out all the organs disturbing
@AlyssaxAshcroft couldn't agree more. 'Two weeks after first infections' implies they did some preparations (clotheswise...) to actually survive such an outbreak this long. Those characters we got now seem to have never left their house during those two weeks.
Your wrong.There was no witch in this video.Zoey got pwned by the tank,Bill got killed by smoker(ironic)and Louis fell off a roof.(idk how he managed that)
imho they looked a LOT better then in the final l4d,except for Zoey,here she looks a bit too veteran,took away that teenager look but the rest,like I said:D
hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahah that is so not francis or zoey or louis bill hahahahhaahhahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol francis looks kinda like the guy from brutal legend, louis looks completely different, bill looks motly the same, and zoey isn't as sexy as in the final version :)
Wtf. I tni kthis was b4 they took screamer out of l4d, but boomer and killing floor took screamer! I noticed when i was playing it. But 10 times more freaky.
He was a special Infected that was cut from the final version. He is in a straight jacket and he doesent hurt you. You have a few seconds to kill him before he screams. The scream attracts zombies. The screamer runs away while the zombies are attacking you.
Later he was cut from the game because he was too difficult to kill after he screams. And his zomie attracting scream attack, Evolved into the Boomers Vomit being able to attract zombies.
@CallMeKazu he makes more since then *pukes on attracts zombies becuase the horde comes form loud noises (car alram turn gate , bell , wicth scream ect
No they replaced the screamer with a boomer if you played the devoloper commentary in left for dead he said that the screamer was to hard to kill and was just a distraction soooo they switched to the boomer.. =)
Nonono. The boomer puke and explosion was ment to do damage. The boomer wasn't a replacement for the screamer. They just removed it's expolding and puking damage, and transfered the horde-attracting ability to the boomer. Valve decided that if they removed the screamer, there wouldln't be enaugh zombies. So they made the witch instead :)
Do you have left 4 dead???? have u played commentary? if you listen they say the screeamer was cut and it changed to the boomer!!!!! its vomit does no damage the vomit attracts zombies and the zombies do damage!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, i have the game, and i've played commentary. the screamer was cut and ITS HORDE ATTRACKING ABILITY WAS TRANSFERED to the boomer. So they cut the boomers damage.
PLEASE DONT READ THIS!!! One time a girl named miya dissapeard in a forest in 1986
at 2004 a girl named marry found her miya had a scar on her body and the words you are not pretty enough after that marry was never found because you have read this miya will be in your closet in 5 days and kill you unless you post this to 5 vids
They Changed Louis because they wanted him to look like the "normal day guy" + Zoey and Bill los their body armor thing and Francis was less "hobo-ish"
the whole reason they changed the skin is because francis and zoey looked exactly like characters from another 4 player zombie game, hunter the reckoning
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
alright, how good is this: "Left 2 Die" the prequel to Left 4 Dead except it is more story-oriented and follows 2 scientests whom have mad skills with the shooting of zombies. It explains how the zombies came to be.
I think the levels would be something like in a science centre trying to contain infection. Then out in the open country-side running away from science centre. Then in a big city. And then finally, a military camp which would be like the last stand with the zombies.
A movie? No. They just want you to play it multiple times again and again which is why they have 4 short campaigns. they didnt want to spend money on a story line they spent their money on gameplay
i dont get it, zombie movies like 28 days later and 28 weeks later are brilliant without the use of a massive zombie mutant thing. why cant games be like that
they started making if before it was released. but im sure alot of things in the game are going to be inspired by zombie master... mm mm love that game.
TO end the debate on whether this is a copy of Resident evil. It isn't, this is actually more logical then a random virus. In Left 4 Dead, there is a mutated strand of rabies that infects the town in which the survivors live in. They are immune to the virus(Think I am Legend). They fight their way out to try to escape. There is multiplayer(Co-Op+Versus) as opposed to Resident Evil. They also have an AI called the "Director" controlling the thrill levels. So it varies and can never be the same.
