    This game. Doesn't need a second thought, of being a masterpiece, even though it was boycotted 12 years ago, im pretty sure all the people who boycotted it back then, regret their words. This game is, and always will be, a masterpiece.

    Left 4 Dead 2 is one of those games I don't think could be polished much further but at the same times feels a long way from perfect.

    Its one of those rare sequels that is a sort of "Super" version of its precursor that manages to not feel bloated.

    I would highly recommend Left 4 Dead 2.

    Топовая сетевая игра про зомби, которая просто не может устареть. В ней хорошо всё.

    The best zombie game i've ever played and a fun game to play with your friends! I've never heard of the word bug in this game and that was the reason i'm rating this a score of 10 out of 10.

    When it comes down to it Left 4 Dead 2 is a shining example of the magic that most shooters lack these days. It's an accessible game with a hardcore focus on co-op. With a high enough skill ceiling to encourage players to master the game. Despite 11 years worth of titles that have come out after Left 4 Dead 2. To this day it remains one of the most unique replayable shooters out there.When it comes down to it Left 4 Dead 2 is a shining example of the magic that most shooters lack these days.

With a satisfying gameplay loop that mimics a horror movie. An amazing level of detail in the environments. A lovable cast of characters Left 4 Dead 2 will stick with you even 11 years later. The director gives the games its insane replay value. It's brimming with content and different modes to try out. Its versus is exactly the type of exhilaration that makes playing games with friends so much fun. Sure the fun factor is largely dependent on who you play with and it is not hard to get tilted into the stratosphere. But it is still amazing to play through solo… Expand

    Fun zombie shooter, not as fresh as part 1, but still very enjoyable. 7/10 if you have a good crew.

    Possibly the most overrated game of all time. Left 4 Dead 2 has aged extremely poorly, but to be honest I don't even comprehend how this game was taken seriously in 2009 either.

    It's ugly, even by source engine standards. Textures are muddy and models are poor and I've seen better looking environments made in the hammer editor for Gmod.

    Speaking of Gmod, the entire game feels like an overhyped gamemode. It's got really cool music and sound effects and fancy pre recorded dialogue, but the gameplay itself is pretty much akin to one of those zombie survival gmod servers, except with even more toxicity somehow.

    The game has a shocking lack of variety, a handful of gamemodes surrounding the only basic mechanic of moving and shooting. Versus is a really fun idea but it feels half baked and undertested at best and straight up broken at worst.

    This is a shockingly bad game and anyone trying to convince you otherwise is a grifter who hasn't actually played it or someone so caught up in their childish nostalgia they refuse to see this game for the giant pile or steaming garbage it is.

    Lazy trash game, 2/10    … Expand

    Left 4 Dead 2 is like I would call it Steamovka. If you're on Steam and you're playing at least a little bit of multiplayer, you have to have Left 4 Dead 2 in your library.

Graphically, the game is so ... sufficient. Valve mostly makes graphics in his multiplayer titles, which is nice in a way, but not breathtaking. But it has its charm, because it looks good in the final and especially the game can be played by almost everyone thanks to low HW requirements. In practice, I have a friend who is a pure console and does not even touch the PC, but if we want to play something together, then Left 4 Dead 2 is not a problem, because my friend has a laptop that can tighten the game without any problems. In addition to praising here that the game can be played by almost anyone I would also praise gameplay. The game is fast, action-packed, just a total carving of zombies, and that's better when you're enjoying this action room with a friend. What about a friend. It's best to go straight with the full crew. Create a group of four people and you have fun. Killing those infected monsters for a long night. The game has several maps and I must admit that they are really great. Each has its own charm. In addition to locations, there is also an arsenal crack. Whether a pistol, AK47, M4A1 or a zombie as a motorbike. The good news is that you can enjoy the game yourself. You can go through the maps with either shoes or random players. You can join a random game. Of course, you will lose something and it will not be as if you were with your friends on Discord, but what I played alone with random people, I had no problem. For me, a great game that I recommend and one of the best on Steam in terms of multiplayer.… Expand

    Первая часть в абсолюте. Миссии частично менее мрачные( из за светлого времени суток) , за то ситуации и режиссура шагнули далеко вперед. Оружие завезли, монстров новых тоже прибавилось, карты - очень интересные(миссия на мосту- отдельное спасибо valve). Игра - шикарная, эталон кооп игры.Первая часть в абсолюте.

    Not that I'm a specialist on co-op games, but this really feels like the perfect co-op game! It feels like everything in it is designed with playability in mind - the visuals, the levels, the weapons, the zombies... And it really works, because it's playable as hell

    Easily one of the best games of all time with 100's of hours sank into it. No game I know other than Valve titles has such an amazing live community for so long with more and more mods and content being given daily.

    This is how you make a masterpiece game. Heck man there's even dialogue and details I'm still finding to this day.

    In fact, an enlarged, corrected and extended re-release of the first part of the game, which later included all the previously released episodes.

    It remains one of the most distinctive co-operative titles out there, and allows for some of the most nerve-searing team-based multiplayer gaming on the market.

    Whereas once we treated Left 4 Dead as a stopgap between Half-Lifes, this is no longer a weird little side project with modest expectations, and Valve is confident enough to play around with it, safe in the knowledge that you can trust your players. Left 4 Dead proved it. And whereas that game had a personality, this one is overflowing with it.
