Left 4 Dead

agree 100%. Been playing quite a bit over the past 2 days. Love it ahha, just a pity the servers crash WAY to often :/
 
I was playing this In December last year. Lots of fun :)

Only thing that put me off it were the bugs and problems with the game and the servers.

A. There was a long period where local servers were not showing and were unable to load even though people were up to date so couldn't play online without going to extremes finding a local server that was not full.
B. Hosting your own game resulted in huge lag for everyone else whenever a mob of zombies came running to attack.
C. Joining servers resulted in some weird unable to connect to host error for no apparent reason even when there were spots available and the game was nowhere near finished according to the menu report.
D. Versus mode was a biatch to start and servers kept on going back to campaign even though so many people preferred versus mode.

Have they resolved these issues yet?
 
Jonny, Yeah, if you add saix and isgaming as your groups all the servers come up and you can join no probs. Not sure on hosting, never tried it. Havnt had any "unable to connect" errors on local, only time its happened was when the server died... but thats for obvious reasons.

Versus works great. You join and play and it works... but as stated before, servers crash quite often :/

^ I did add the groups and I was a member but for a while the list wasn't showing...they had some issue somewhere and others were complaining at the time as well :/ so we had to edit a file or something that allowed to show the connect console in the main menu so that we could find the servers. It was ever since a certain steam update that caused this even though everyone including servers were supposedly up to date.

But by now they should have fixed all these issues.

The only other issue I had was the game freezing which was also quite common for others...I then disabled something in the sound options and it was ok.
