Everyone who has Left 4 Dead wanted DLC for it. Guess what? Valve has got it!

Left 4 Dead 411
 
Valve has just issued a press release saying that a new game mode called "Survival" will be released this Spring along with Dead Air and Death Toll for Versus mode and the SDK.

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress, and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced a series of content and development releases for its latest title, 2008's best-selling new game property for the PC and Xbox 360, Left 4 Dead (L4D).

The first L4D DLC - dubbed the L4D Survival Pack -- is due for release this spring and introduces a new multiplayer game mode entitled, Survival, plus two complete campaigns for Versus Mode . A Critic's Choice Edition of the game is also heading to retail stores this spring, and will include access to all the content introduced in the L4D: Survival Pack.

In addition, for PC gamers and aspiring developers, the first Left 4 Dead release for the Source Software Development Kit (Source SDK) will allow the creation of custom Left 4 Dead campaigns that will be discoverable via L4D's matchmaking system. The SDK update is also due for release this spring, and is free of charge to all owners of L4D on the PC.

"Since Half-Life launched in 1998, Valve has made continuous efforts to expand the offering of its products beyond what's included on the day of launch," said Gabe Newell, co-founder and president of Valve. "With Half-Life and Counter-Strike, and more recently Team Fortress 2, we've learned that we're no longer making stand-alone games but creating entertainment services. With Left 4 Dead we're extending that tradition by creating additional gameplay and releasing our internal tools to aspiring developers so they may also create and distribute new Left 4 Dead experiences."

Left 4 Dead is a survival action game from Valve that blends the social entertainment experience of multiplayer games such as Counter-Strike and Team Fortress with the dramatic, narrative experience made popular in single player action game classics such as the Half-Life series of games. Released in November of 2008, L4D has earned over 25 industry awards from outlets around the world.

No details yet on Survival mode.


Oh yeah, the best part. Everything will be free.

Again...
 
Valve has announced that the L4D DLC will be free for both PC and Xbox 360 users.

The recently announced Left 4 Dead Downloadable Content (L4D DLC) will be delivered to Xbox 360 and PC gamers free of charge.

Due for release this spring, the DLC for 2008's best-selling new game property on the PC and Xbox 360, is dubbed the L4D Survival Pack and introduces a new multiplayer game mode entitled, Survival, plus two complete campaigns for Versus Mode (Death Toll, Dead Air). A Critic's Choice Edition of the game will be heading to retail stores this spring, and will include access to all the content introduced in the L4D: Survival Pack.

I still can't use this.

If this new mode can recreate the type of hilarious survival I personally experienced trying futilely to beat the campaigns on the hardest setting, then I welcome it wholeheartedly. If it ends up any tamer than that... eh. xP

T'was the opposite for me. ._.
Expert difficulty. 1 Survivor dead, another one on low health. Me and another random guy were the only able to outrun the tank. We found the tank and put up an emergency plan, running back to the initial safehouse. We entered, closed it behind us. We were like "LOL HAI TANK YOU CAN'T CATCH US". Tank opens with one punch the door open. ._____.
You can imagine the finale.

That sounds like what I did when my boyfriend had me play with him.

He was like, "Okay, this car *points gun at car* has an alarm. If you hit it it will go off and makes zombies sawrm us."

"Alright, I'll be careful." I say. Bunch of zombies come from the cars direction and I shoot like mad and hit the car.
It made things much more exciting to be honest.

XDDD

*ahem*...FALCON PUNCH!!!
The zombies...they never stop coming...GET AWAY FROM ME!!!!! DIE DIE!!!!! lol...i like this game, i got alot of G Score from it, but if you ask me, it was to short and needed cutscenes. Or some type of plot other than escaping. All of it was fun the first couple of times but after killing 59830 zombies, brain exploding, limb severing and everything, the ame got kinda boring. I like it though. Good zombie game, like the first good one in a long time.
