What happened to the Left 4 dead franchise?

Will we ever see any more games?
If yes what new things would you like to see in them?
Do you think they would take place outside the North Africa?

I'd say valve doesn't make games anymore, but now they're making a card game. I'm not sure which is worse honestly

>What happened to the Left 4 dead franchise?
It was Left 4 Dead

Are there still people playing it? I'd like to come back to it someday

they were working on l4d3 but dropped it because they dont make games and only make money.

Tons of people still play 2.

the L4D community is one of the shittiest communities out there

There's still alive playerbase but it's not as huge as it was during the release.

check steamcharts

as for what happened to the franchise? nothing. a ton of people played it and loved it, a lot still do play it and love it. as for if there will be a 3rd or not, probably as l4d2 barely improved or added onto anything from the first game so there is plenty of room to improve the game.

L4D3 is the only game I can see Valve making. Only because people are still liking the zombie trope even though I thought it would be done by now.

all communities are equally shit

user you and I both know that isn't true

Valve dumped the developer, it made Evolve, it crashed and burned and so did the devs

What would you say about L4D placed in Britain?
>New 4 characters
>You start in London, going through streets killing zombies dressed as guards with those funny furry hats and zombies in burqas
>Constant rain gives you a depressing atmosphere of deserted lost world
>You go outside the London though contryside
>You end up in some castle defending yourself from Zombies and waiting for a rescue chopper
>The chopper crashes and you have to go to port to get a boat and get to the Isle of Man
>You arrive, its full of zombies but there's also a refugee camp and the campaign ends.

the first l4d is one of the few games i'm fine with picking random in the character selection menu
>old and grumpy vietnam veteran with a heart of gold
>cute filmmaker student who loves horror movies
>"head on his shoulders" everyday man, probably the most relatble of the group
>cocky biker, literally hates everything
when i moved to 2, i remember instalocking coach or nick every time

There are over 10000 players in L4D2, but only about 100 of them play singleplayer. The rest are doing multi.

Isn't it called uZombi or something?

LITTLE VAMPIRE

It was left for dead xD

but uZombi is a survival game, L4D doesn't have survival elements like getting hungry, thirsty etc.
Unless things like medkits and powerups (adrenaline, defibrillator etc.) make :4D a survival game.

>lfd singleplayer
It's fucking atrocious
t. pirate

>It's fucking atrocious
Those forced medkids

>ywn play a Shaun of the Dead game

We've got way too many leaks about it ranging from strings to folders in Valve employee's desktops named L4D3. My optimist side hopes that they will do another orange box with HL3, L4D3 and either a new IP or TF3.

>HL3
>TF3
I envy your optimism

>no guns and weapons allowed so you have to defend against the zombie hordes armed with a butter knife

Well atleast I have hopes.

But look at this possible arsenal user!
>using a biketire as a chakram against zombies
>reviving your friend with cables connected to stolen radio

I remember the original l4d on the 360 being my first experience heal slutting. I'd always play Zoey and would save my medkits for other people, even when my health was

Valve hates number 3 and trilogies:
Half-Life 3
Dota 3
TF 3
Left4Dead 3

Do you see what these games have in common?

Valve isn't a video game developer anymore.

Valve happened

I'd like to see a L4D where you can make your own survivor,, might be neat.

>He thinks L4D3 has even a remote possibility of happening.

Git gud or get gone, is the mentality. No one wants to play with people who can't even play the game well.

3 didn't happen. ever

NO ONE ever wanted to play Rochelle lol.

>L4D3 is the only game I can see Valve making
They would squeeze in lots of cancerous microtransactions and chests into it for multiplayer modes, so yeah I can see them making L4D3 for this reason

>all these people saying that Valve won't make anymore games
They've already confirmed that 3 games are in development and all confirmed to have a singleplayer mode. Artifact was also confirmed to not be one of them.

>I'd like to see a L4D where you can make your own survivor
I'm not sure if it would work in L4D frenchise. It's known for established characters that are either hit or miss.
I liked to play as her after I used a skin to replace her with some animu gurl

I hate Valve so much. Even if L4D3 came out, it would be jam packed with microtransactions and e-sports garbage.

When Valve stops making money off DOTA, CSGO, and just general marketplace crafting bullshit will they start making games again

Yeah, that much is true. I'm just a huge sucker for that sort of thing.

They could have it where each survivor's personality could clash in certain ways for dialogue or whatever.

It's really just wishful thinking.

So never

>hating on based black woman who don't need no man

>be a private company
>can do whatever you want since you don't have shareholders and executives hounding you at all times
>choose to be the worse version of any corporation

thanks valve

Valve doesnt make games they just make money now

>he doesn't see opportunity with micro transactions in L4D 3

I just want the joy of playing a new source game back man, don't mind one bit if it has hats.
Besides, I don't really mind microtransactions because they're always JUST cosmetics in Valve games.

>more effort than a $50 skin or card game #85489348

lol

you all know well that if 3 ever comes out, it's gonna have microtransactions

>L4d3 comes with shit load of micro transactions
>none of them lets you to play Zoey in skimpy bikini

What would you like to see in a third game?

Progression
Perks
Talents
More weapon variety. No more tier 1 and tier 2 weapons.
More random maps
Slightly slower gameplay to prevent rushing
Character appearance customization

it to exist and valve to be good again

only versusfags. Campaign is pretty chill

>melee weapon skins
>character skins
>gun skins
>hats
>zombie skins for infected mode

And thats just the shit that they could pretty easily merge into L4D2. Who knows what game mechanics would be added that would allow for more shit.

>what is skins survivors
>what is skins for weapon
>what is skins for a medkit

They we'll do L4D 3 no doubt of that, just be read for cases and keys

...

hope you enjoy your Francis flaming fedora for $200

The future is unironically Vermintide 2.

You still need to build the foundation for your cashshop trainwreck.

Why would Valve even bother when DOTA and CSGO are still doing so well? They'd have to hire actual employees to make more than an afternoon's work of content again.

Holy shit this would be great
>silly weapons
>bants
>having a nice cold pint and waiting for all of it to blow over

Ayyyy

The closest you get are Killing Floor 2 and Vermintide. So now all modern enhancements...
> lootboxes
> classes
> grindy progression system
KF2 is fun tho.

weapon mods and proper melee combat
maybe crafting

Sold out cause Valve wouldn't put up with their faggotry. Went their separate ways to pursue their dream of making shitty games. Made Evolve, then it flopped and that was the end of them. The. End. Good riddance to those pieces of shit.

>Be L4D developers
>Make cool concept
>Valve likes what you got and buys off your company
>After two games Valve decides it doesn't want to do anymore anymore
>Too afraid to ask to make L4D3 and risk getting fired and replaced by someone who's comfortable getting paid to sit at a desk looking busy while doing nothing

Valve won't ever do any other videogame.

>not wanting more money from spending less of it

It could easily beat its budget in 4-6 months + it doesn't seem like Valve is low on money

>two shit companies co-existing
>acting holier than thou

by the way, even EA is better than Valve nowadays

Bought it in July and i've found pretty decent games

If you take initiative and spur the team to shoot every fucking thing, the match becomes stellar

But if you're passive, the game can easily overpower you with specials being churned out the ass every 20-seconds

Still great as i remember

And Portal 3 and TF3, the surprise it will all be the same game.

CARLOOOOOOOOOSSS

>make Rochelle one of the funniest characters and give her a lot of flavorful dialogue on par with Francis
>proceed to cut half of her dialogue, leaving out most of her backstory, even though the voice files are still packaged with the game
>wonder why nobody wants to play her

>pain

wait, what was her backstory? from what i remember, she just worked for some tv news station covering the outbreak

I know it's cool to hate on rochelle, but also fuck ellis too, and fuck keith.

sauce

>that keith alter ego theory that makes so much sense it gets scary

>why bother when two reskins of old ass games are making money hand over fist with the same simple asthetic shop this one could adopt with next to no effort

GEE I WONDER WHAT THE INCENTIVE WOULD BE

Dont forget about how they have gotten away with charging console players for maps and shit that are free for PC players, and everyone that I knew that played L4D more than occasionally on console spent the extra money.

not that user but she looks like Nena Trinity from gundam 00

i don't hate rochelle, she's completely fine but i never had the desire to play as her. she was certainly better than ellis who was instead an annoying fuck

Could be worse. She could have an afro.

she has the smallest hitboxes bro.

What the fuck happend to Tony Stark and why is he a black tranny with an afro now?

Are nick and coach the best boys?

He found a 15 year old girl who's smarter and built a better suit than. He passed the title on to her.

>deadpool2
DON't REMIND ME
If they really want to reverse colours, then at least paint her black and put a bright, white spot on her eye. Not just smear some birdshit on a light skinned black chick and call it a day.

if it's not happening what was even the point of making this map in source 2

...lol?

Also teen titans even when its not videogames.

>Progression
>Perks
>Talents
>More weapon variety. No more tier 1 and tier 2 weapons.
>More random maps
>Slightly slower gameplay to prevent rushing
literally killing floor lad why you ask for a game that exist?

Deadpool 2 looks familiar

im a retard

well i didn't know that. still, coach and nick are a lot more interesting, as a character, than her

>Git gud or get gone, is the mentality.
I've been kicked for picking up tier two weapons too earlier. The community is far too kick happy.

>try to get into l4d2 after the popularity dies down
>singleplayer is really boring and the AI teammates suck
>multiplayer is full of people who assume you've already played and beaten the entire game and have little patience for new players

obviously, valve can't count to 3

to show source 2?

ebin XDD
