Left 4 Dead

I just bought this...what a waste of £27! :hateit:
Words cannot describe how pissed off I am right now.

Also, before people say 'its only £27, durrr', I coulda bought a couple of decent games for that...and money is fairly scarce at the moment...gah!

What didn't you like about it? I just came into a little bt of dosh so I've bought Modern Warfare 2, Dead Space and was gonna pick up L4D on Wed.
 
I'd say it gets boring pretty fast, but the SDK was just released, so me and my 3 friends have been trying new maps mostly.
 
Normally, it would take a week or two to realize you wasted your money. Too bad you couldn't enjoy it for more than a day.
 
Will copy what I posted somewhere else, im sure other people will disagree, this is just my opinion, but yeah :
So...I just bought this game, sure, I like a good shooter, and I like zombies (spent many MANY hours on Killing Floor). I played a few missions just new with 2 friends, who were getting really into it, whereas for me...the lighting (or lack), was making me strain my eyes, and turning the brightness up just looked stupid.
Whole horde's of zombies, which just seem to disappear with no real regard to where bullets hit, as long as bullets are coming out of my gun, theyre dropping wether the bullets are hitting or not (and no, it wasnt anybody else shooting them).

Just my opinion, but I dunno, nothing seemed to 'click', like it does, for example, when im playing killing floor.

EDIT: Regarding this big bad tank everyone seems to be crapping their pants about...wtf...i've never played the damn game before, playing with 2 friends and a dumbass AI, on Expert, and all that happened when the tank came was everyone shot it ages, it took one person down, oh look, tanks dead, better go help that guy up. Erm, what.
 
Eh, I'll give it another go tomorrow if I have a chance, when im not as tired, and will hafta try a different level, different guns etc.
Just on first playthrough, its looking pretty grim.
Was quite amusing having my friends shouting at me over mic, cause i saw 'some cars have alarms' come up on my screen, adn this being my frist playthrough, I ran up to the nearest car and melee'd it...all hell was let loose :L

LMAO yeah that is a big no-no. Especially on Expert. Do that and it's game over.

I actually find the game fun ONLY with friends. Alone it feels quite boring.
 
L4D is not for everyone.I findf it to be a great social game, Ive bet alot of friends with this game, and friends are what makes this game shine.
 
Versus.

It's the only part of the game worth playing, honestly. It's fun to get 3 of your buddies, vent or similar, and go beat up a team of pubbers.

    rekado pretends to work but nothing happens
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, oh I also heard about gopher64 but I never tried it
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Xdqwerty there is some c++ redistributable needed or the plugin won't show up
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @The Real Jdbye Huh. And you tried Rekado? Possibly accidently disabled the popup notification when the Switch gets plugged into the phone? I did that once and thought it stopped working.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i forget which exact one
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I tried another, cant remember what it was called, but it didn't work at al for me. Was on the Google store.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i didn't touch the notifications, it seems like it should be working
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, can you link to it pls? Or is it not allowed here?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Maybe give Rekado a shot in case thats not the one you already tried. It cant hurt anything. :)
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, nvm I read you forgot which one it was
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    With AutoRCM and hekate.bin copied to "reboot to payload", I have not used my jig or had to push payload in forever, since last time I updated FW.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    oh yeah and the bmglib.dll needs to be in the main emulator dir not in the plugin dir @Xdqwerty

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, I will try it when I go back home
  • I @ imafsiry:
    i know what if i hook up the rcm loader to switch then connect it to pc . rcm is detected by tegra.. but then what
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and btw I already tried m64plusfz on Android with the rice plugin and it works wonders
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    rice video is really fast, there are some games i still use it for because they are problematic with gliden64 and other plugins dont run the game properly
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    well maybe just one game. mystical ninja starring goemon
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    something about that game causes slowdown issues with most gpu plugins, even with rice video if i dont use the right settings

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @BigOnYa AutoRCM here too with hekate as reboot to payload. Only time I need to push a payload is going from sysMMC back to emuMMC. But its just plug it into my phone and a second later I'm all set. I have all of my games with online features on sysMMC. Like Mario Kart, Mario Party games, etc.

    @The Real Jdbye, yeah, I wanted to play it but it ran like shit
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think you just need to turn framebuffer emulation off in rice video and it fixes the slowdown
  • I @ imafsiry:
    hey red send me tutorial on how to rcm on phone noob
