The idea of having time to type anything in L4D surprises me.

You can't be killed while you type.

I am interested in playing on Steam. Pretty much whenever.

Okay so the only people for Xbox are myself / Grim... and The Vision - everyone else is Steam and the only person who's suggested a Specific date is Grim... and Friday (I know TheVision cant make Monday)

So do we want to try a few games of it next Friday then (9th) on Steam ?

It's unlikely I'd know for sure about next Thursday until next Thursday, but it seems pretty likely.

Grim... · **Posted:** Fri Oct 02, 2015 14:02

Are we playing 1 or 2? I only have 2 on Steam, but I guess I could buy #1.

Most people have said either - if you dont have 1 then lets just go with 2

So tomorrow night then - Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam

Are you going to turn up?

Knowing Zaphod, he'll turn up 20 mins late and 4 people will be playing a game.

This is what happened last week in Destiny (except you can only have three-player fireteams).

Last night he didn't turn up at all! >:|

So for last night I did not get online till much later and everyone else had gone.

For tomorrow I will be on between about 21:30 and midnight

Y'know that PS+'ers have got that Hardwire beta thing today too? I think Myp posted something about it on here sometime. I haven't played it yet though.

No we won't. It's closed until 9 October. Tch.

PS+ have Star Wars Battlefront from tomorrow but I dont know how stable / robust that will be - I think for now lets try and get a group to play this and see what we get

I have no idea what you're talking about so perhaps not me.

myp · **Posted:** Thu Oct 08, 2015 21:05

So who have we got?

Grim... · **Posted:** Thu Oct 08, 2015 21:32

Not Grim...

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14489

Just me and cookie at the moment - grim... Is on "snooze"

myp · **Posted:** Fri Oct 09, 2015 8:11

I installed L4D2 and kept half an eye on this thread and my Steam friends list. Didn't seem to be much going on.

lasermink · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 1883

Great fun! I look forward to playing again. Sorry I wasn't quite ready when you started.

The way the player characters automatically chat to keep everyone informed on what is going on is fantastic. Very atmospheric game overall. Loved the bit where we were defending ourselves in the house waiting for the transport, almost like a 4 player version of RE4.

I'm sure I've got you on my list but will check tonight - I did not get on until just after 10 and played the start of the mission just with cookie and then Lasermink joined us till the end (where we got demolished a few times by the hoard).

Next week - same time ?

Grim... · **Posted:** Fri Oct 09, 2015 9:18

I shall be Cotta6ing.

Craster can just sit and watch me play, I guess.

Okay so :

Anyone else interested in playing at some point next week
If not anyone else who would like to play the week after

and would it work better if we planned for a weekend (Saturday?) night - starting around 22:00

lasermink · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 1883

Let's play this again on Steam? Tomorrow, Friday and Saturday are all good for me this week, and as late as you like.

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14489

I'm not around for the rest of this week :-(

Be Excellent To Each Other

Let's play Left 4 Dead
