Left 4 Dead 2 - The Sacrifice and No Mercy update. Thoughts?
« on: October 13, 2010, 05:40:38 AM »
Personally I like the new Sacrifice campaign. The first 2 levels are rather long and difficult, even on normal me and Xeno had lots of problems to get to the final stage.
The ending tho, is a bit disappointing. I know that the campaign also needs to work for L4D1 but couldn't they make the final a bit more hard and put a lot more action into it, rather then when you activvate the last generator you are simply incapped? I'd like to have atleast a tank smash me to the room where bill died originally in the passing and in the comic, it just had a much more epic feeling to it, like you were actually doing something great. If you've read to the 178 page comic it shows the story of the Sacrifice a whole lot more different, as in you get into a millitary station and fight your way out.
After you get incapped there is simply nothing.
Couldn't VALVE just put a bit more Drama into it, like they did in the comic?
Sorry for the text of wall but that are my feelings about the campaign.
No Mercy is nice, it was my favourite campaign of L4D. The final was made a bit harder then in L4D as in you have no ammopacks and medkits in the house where you call the heli in the final. There is also not much cover in the house because it was opened a lot more.
All in all I am satisfied with the update, just that the final of the sacrifice didn't live up to the comic.
