Left 4 Dead Witch Killing Guide plus Cr0wned Achievement Video

August 12th, 2009

For those having trouble taking out ’s witches, check out this killing . Lots of useful tips including:

- After startling a witch, run off an edge so that you “hang” the witch will target you but do no damage. It’s an easy kill after that, but your teammates will still have to pick you up and you’ll take 10-20 “hanging” damage.

- If the witch is on a raised area along with your team, line it up so that there is a “fall spot” between you and the witch. Like the catwalks on early Blood Harvest 2 or the roof on No Mercy 3, she will fall off and give you time to make some distance.

Will Left 4 Dead DLC work in Left 4 Dead 2?

August 10th, 2009

Right now, is undecided how it will work, though it seems like there’s a likelihood the new ’ will work in 2. From an interview on Edge, Valve’s stated that they’re “struggling with how interoperability is going to work” in the game. This relates to each map having dialog specific to individual characters, and for Valve, that means recording all new dialog with the new cast. While Valve’s quick to state they’re not against doing that, it raises a question about whether or not they’ll go the other way and record cast in Left 4 Dead situations (if L4D2 players want to play L4D campaigns with the new characters).

It seems Left 4 Dead has been, err… left for dead after the release of Left 4 Dead 2. Left 4 Dead 2 fans will be able to enjoy all the campaigns of Left 4 Dead and then some, but the old group will be alone in the cold.

Other highlights from the interview follow:

Left 4 Dead ‘Crash Course’ Only 2 Chapters Long

August 7th, 2009

This one’s a bit odd. ’s releasing new for in September, free for owners, but $7 for owners. Not bad, we’d gladly pay $7 for a full movie to one of our favorite games… but there’s a catch. It’s NOT a full movie. It’s 2 chapters of a movie, where normally a Left 4 Dead movie is 5 chapters long. What gives? This feels like the “deleted content” from Valve’s archives, not the carefully, meticulously designed levels that we thought we’re coming.

I’m still happy that we’ll have more Left 4 Dead to play, but I wish Valve cared a bit more. I would be fine if they bundled the best of the best fan content and sold that to me on my Xbox 360, as there is no way to play the user-created content outside of the PC. I suppose this will tide people over until November, when comes out. But it feels a little cheap. If people really want a 20-30 min. experience, why not just start on one of the later chapters?
