I love killing Sana told me not to say what they were called!!

I suppose it's uncompletable?

Lousy little people sitting over on they're side of the fence...

I ended it...

How? It's not supposed to have an end (unless you die).
Oh yeah, note: If you kill an enemy in melee range, you may be telefragged.

And Legendslayer, perhaps you might remove the reference to the enemy from your post? I didn't mention it for a reason.. the map has little content as it is.

EDIT: Well, actually, nevermind, if no-one mentions the enemies there is not much to discuss about the map..

Removed. You can see them in the first post's pic anyway...

lol, good fun. I summed EXU2 guns and went to town for a few minutes, then called a quits. Not too bad for only 6 hours though!

Almost forgot to mention that sometime during today (or already yesterday) I started playing this but stopped very quickly since it's not the style of play I enjoy (I don't like the weapon).
Also I was never able to kill somethng without losing 1 or 2 healthpoints.

THe settings were convincing, I flew around a bit and waved to my followers but I probably didn't see the whole level.

Left 4 BLEEEEEEEEEEEHASHDHHGGGGGGGGGGKKKKKKKKKKKKOOHOHHHGGHH

You even captured the atmosphere pretty good, Sana. I'm personally not a fan of shoot-till-you-(get)munch(ed) but that was some good fun even for a moment. Maybe you should consider putting even more goodies in there (beyond just pickups if you know what I mean ;P ).

I realized that a quick left 4 dead spoof isn't worth being turned into a full-fledged map and there's already 832109382 zombie mods out there. this project is considered cancelled! the compilation version will include a better quadshot, endless ammo and 2-3 tweaks, but that's it.

That's a shame IMO. You seem to have done a lot of work on it in the mean time. However, we will need the map to end so that it can form part of the hub. Could you include an exit?

Why the sudden loss of confidence?

[ividyon]

well, as I mentioned I noticed there's a damn lot of zombie mods out there for games. even in Unreal the idea was already executed ages ago by Dots' DeadCity map (the pawns used in R2L are in fact DeadCity zombies). Left4Dead is a solid, enjoyable game by itself, it makes no sense to completely reconstruct it in another, inferior game engine. Also there's the issue of my ability to do work - from the years of my modding experience it has become quite apparent that my perfectionism is reaching nutjob levels and I never get anything done since I spend weeks on tweaking and playtesting tiny aspects of my work. (I'm still not done with those 2 buildings and that quadshot!) R2L was kind of a breakthrough for me since I actually got some content out, however unpolished and horrible it turned out.

TL;DR: I'm a procrastinating slob who will never finish this anyway and there's no point in remaking L4D for UE1. I might give the idea of an urban setting another try in a more Unreal-related context (eventually with inspiration by Natural Selection and Prototype), but since AMNESIAC is already following that concept (and successfully so, looking at the gorgeous screenshots), there's little incentive to continue this whole affair.

[Hellscrag]

Fair enough.

We'd still appreciate an exit though!
