@prinny081 dont know maybe valve was thinking this "No we gotta have less graphic then the actual game so the gamers will love it :D" dont really know what they where thinking :(
Valve needs to leave L4D 2 alone...otherwise im not buying it...cuz this is the original and what valve did sucks...i wonder what other good shit we missed out on cuz of valve...
they should make some kind of addon for people with better machines to make the game look more realistic for them and let them still play with other people because this looks alot better than L4D now sadly
As much as I wish the game had actually looked that great, Valve still did a great job optimizing the game to allow people with budget computers run this.
But I have to admit the original L4D does look and sound much better than what we have now. :T
gosh people are stupid ! they changed the charaters on left 4 dead ! this is what they had oringally ! and yes it does lookbetter XD bit like fable 2 there demo of the dog it looked AMAZING and then they took out everyything amazing when they sold the game xD
Dude wth is wrong with you just because i asked a question doesn't mean you have to be gay and say/ Think that ur smarter. I dont have an xbox360 and i dont know if l4d for the PC and xbox are different so why dont you get a life and stop commenting.
you cant compare pc to consoles. pc is better graphics, fps. wheter you like it or not. the pc gets newer every month. and anc 360 are like frickin 3-4 years old. i used to play 360 all the time. but when i got a pc it was way better
This looks almost entirely different, I wish they kept these graphics because truthfully this looks more realistic, and would make it look so much better. I play the game in 720P and it looks mint, but this would look phenominal.
I play it on a 720p Flatscreen monitor, with the xbox 360. And I am just saying that no matter what I did it wouldn't look this realistic. I'm just saying that something to do with the lighting/shadows gives it that much more realism.
Lol they aren't that good? The only game you can play on the computer with the best graphics is crysis and it is limited. The fact that you just said that makes me think you havent played games like resident evil 5 on a 1080p 60 inch flatscreen with a 360.. I was merely saying that this game looks almost entirely different from when it was since developed.
This is true, but as I had mentioned before the only platforms which are really aimed at exclusive titles would be consoles such as the Wii, PS3, and Xbox 360. I will agree with your statement but I'm going to say that the PC is still garbage gamewise, it only has a limited selection of games, and also it takes the price if not more then one of these consoles just to let alone upgrade it. IE; RAM, Graphics Card, etc. Besides if you just stick to computer then you are just being narrow minded.
You can change some of the launch settings in Steam to make it run in Direct X 7 mode, that helps sometimes. I think you just add "-dxlevel 70" or something like that in the Launch Properties
them for making the content free. Point is, Valve should just stick to PC games. Helps them save money, and makes FPS easier with a pin point mouse. Not to mention the fact you can download maps, and skins for the game.
lol your stupid. they would go outta buisiness becuase so many people are fucking retarded and download the bootleg versions of the games so the companies really dont like pc games as much as console becuase its harder to play bootleg games
Not really...Me and a medium sized writing group are working on a design document to send into Ubisoft and Bethesda. Open-World RPG "Infected' Game. Survival RPG is pretty much the genre.
Did you even check out the Developer Commentary? That was the original plan, until they decided it couldn't work. Trust in Valve. They make hit games.
The game would be so much better when it was horror like and with an open city that was the desire but those n00b testers said it wasn't good at all FUCK THEM MAKE AN OPEN CITY IN A NEW CAMPAIGN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(And make it more horror like , black sky would be better more details ,darker shadows and other effects
The textures are not actually higher resolution, at least, I don't think. What happened is when valve changed the visual style, they changed what post processing effects were applied so they could get the desired look. With the post effects displayed here, textures are crisp and fully detailed, it also seems like the specular maps (they still use those, right?) are cranked.
I like the game the way it is now, but I kind of like the lighting in these maps here. In fact, I'd like to play on those maps using the current game. A nice change of scenery with the same map.
If i can run Farcry2 high graphics without lag and Crysis in medium and some high settings without lag , i can run this with good graphics without lag?? I migh buy it it seem so goood
I agree, this version looks a lot creepier. It also looks like fun. I guess this whole version was scrapped for some reason and they re-made everything for the released version.
Has anyone played the old version? No? You can't agree on which was better until you play them both. I'm pretty sure Valve know what they're doing, and they've explained all their changes in their commentary. We don't need idiots going around saying "OHMYGOSH BETA LOOKS BETA VALVE SUX".
I wanna talk to valve so bad, I think there should be more characters with there own storyline or somthing, but you still play with louis, bill francis and zoey. For example it could be bill ,louis , zoey and a new guy or any cobination of the characters, They should also have another army other than Bill, one who is like still serving, I think tatd be awesome
