    The game has a spectacular game play and even new weapons, I say that I'd love the l4d, but there are tons of workshop mods and new maps to enjoy, u can play with friends to enjoy this game

    It's a pretty nice game to be honest, but truthfully, it could do better on the story and let me know where the heck I'm supposed to go better, but other than that, it a great zombie game to play.

    Has two games in 1. L4D1 and 2. DLC was excellent, free. User created content beyond parity, although lacking in creative content from the userbase. One of the best games in history.

    9.5 - Probably one of the best game sequels of all time. Left 4 Dead 2 makes everything from the first upgraded, only with new special infected and new awesome characters. Campaign quality is equally as good as the first and the Steam workshop have done a really good job on additional content. On top of all this, multiplayer was professionally made and has very minimal flaws.

    이 게임은 혁명적인 협동 플레이 방식을 보여줬다.더 많이 갈수록 긴장감이 높아지고 각족 무기들을 사용하는 재미가 쏠쏠하다. 하지만 다른 좀비게임과 마찬가지로 이 게임도 금방 질린다. 하지만 각종 모드를 하는 재미 때문에 다시3년이 지나도 4년이 지나도 할 게임같다.

    Playing this in today 2023 this game has not aged well. Looks dated, clunky gameplay and still fairly glitchy. A product very much of its time. Mods for this game are just like lipstick for a pig. A.I. teamates are beyond retarded (even with mod that makes them less retarded). Don't you just love it when three specials team up and gank you all at the same time, hey!? More fail than fun thesedays.

    Pretty good co-op zombie game that broke a lot of new ground in its time. Today however, I feel that even if the game is still pretty solid and fun, it's just outclassed by a lot of other co-op shooter titles like Borderlands 2/The Pre-Sequel, Payday 2, Destiny 2, Vermintide, etc...

    -大bug很少见，但是小bug很多
    -独自游玩的乐趣较少

    入手建议：十分建议收藏，淘宝的库存应该很多，几瓶汽水的钱，不买不是人系列XD。

    求生之路一个创造性的举动无疑就是采用了ai导演系统。制作者从《军团要塞》这类的传统fps对抗游戏中获取了灵感，让这个系统来调节游戏的节奏，带给玩家每次游玩都是截然不同的体验。该系统的特色就是会根据玩家的状态来调整感染者的进攻节奏，并且游戏中感染者没有固定的刷新点，只要是生还者视线盲区就能刷怪，因此求生之路2的地图耐玩性可能时至今日都是首屈一指的。同时，游戏的bgm也有专门的导演系统，配乐会配合爱导演系统进行变动，本身就优秀的配乐能让玩家更有代入感。

    创意工坊和第三方mod网站里的mod数不胜数，找不到你感兴趣的mod是不可能的。最基础的无疑就是各种模型和贴图，给予了你的求生高度的个性化选择，之后，当个性化也不能满足你时，第三方地图和模式无疑又能给你更多不一样的体验。甚至，当你感兴趣，你还可以自制属于你的mod。由于开发者对于mod的支持，制作一个求生的mod并不是难事。甚至可以说求生之所以长寿很大程度上得益于其自由度极高的扩展性。

    求生配置多低，已经不必多说了，如果你的电脑还带不动求生，那真的没救了。但是，把虽然老但是成熟的source引擎的性能压榨到了极致极致的L4D2画质依然不差——而且随便一台中端的电脑都能全高效跑上百帧。虽然画质在今天称不上很牛逼，但也没什么可以挑的骨头了。何况，别忘了玩家们会自制高清模组呢。

    当然，作为一款合作游戏，如果你是独自玩耍，必然会失去太多乐趣。除非你是要练习技术去打对抗或者高难度战役，不然一般人在熟悉游戏以后很难找到理由在没车队的时候点开求生——除非你是背板党，或者你是哪种单纯享受过关快感的玩家，又或者你是为了录视频……

    作为一个十多年前的游戏，引擎固然优秀但是依然略显老态。游戏中一些小细节比如双脚不着地时是没有硬直影响的、小僵尸在蹲下的时候不会有硬直等等，但这些小bug并不会造成太大的影响，最多只是让你撞下彩吃下亏。只要心态不蹦，这点小缺点基本可以无视。甚至在大佬眼里，这些不是小缺点，而是可以利用的小技巧。

    总而言之，这游戏，真的值得你去收藏。    … Expand

Everything has been improved in Left 4 Dead 2 at the expense of the horror element. The first game was pretty scary, this one for some reason is not.

    If you plan to play Left 4 Dead 2, there were 2 peaks of the game for me and you should not miss it. Firstly, The Dark Carnival campaign with its amazing final mission (I won't spoil it, just play it). And secondly, the Scavenge Mode where one team plays as the survivors trying to fuel up a generator in a limited amount of time and the other team as the infected. Probably one of the most entertaining multiplayer experiences.    … Expand

    All in all, probably the best game I ever owned. PVP was good, if you had a functional team, and even co-op could be intense. There were also plenty of variant modes to keep you occupied.

    Modded servers were almost always awful, though.

    I usually refer Left 4 Dead 2 as the equivalent of Id Software's Quake, both are that kind of games were you go and shoot everything that moves, Both games don't contain an actual campaign and finally both were developed by to of the greatest and influential game developers in history, and it works perfectly well... oh and by the way... this is how you make a zombie shooter!!!!!!

    Despite of not having an actual campaign, the concept make it works totally perfect, the concept goes around 4 survivor who are immune to the virus and they have to make their way to safety killing hordes of zombies in their path.
    The core gameplay is pretty much simple, shoot every zombie you see and make your way from point A to point B... alive, simple right? buy works perfect and trust me, you'll never get bored of it. This game can be played alone or with your mates, in higher difficulties team work is essential if you want to make it out alive.
    The game design and levels looks gorgeous!!!! thanks to Valve's Source engine. Now, comparing this sequel to the original game, this one is more violent and bloodier, now the game has a dismemberment mechanic were every zombie will tear into peaces with any shoot, other cool feature is the use of melee weapons that make a balance between long range weapons and melee combat in difference to the original game were you use only fire weapons, and to remark other point... this game contains the original "campaigns" as well.
    The only thing that could have make this title even perfect is if it feature a campaign with a more detailed story.
    The active steam workshop community expand the experience of the game with fan content that you should try if you want like Maps, character skins, sounds & music, and weapons.
    If you haven't played this game yet then what you're waiting for, grab it now on steam, call your friends and kill some zombies.    … Expand

    L4D2 is definitely a classic, but it's also greatly overrated. The co-op gameplay boils down to covering your friends and reviving them when they go down. In most cases, the friendly AI can be more reliable than humans who will refuse to cooperate and be completely incompetent. The PvP modes are a nightmare of toxicity and pointlessness.

    Another great and fun game in the Left 4 Dead-series. I must say that I prefer Left 4 Dead due to the much darker and scarier campaigns. Too much sun here, it's like dawn of the dead, not that scary. Though I love the Dark Carnival. More weapons less ammo. New special infected as well.

    Y una de las cosas que me gustó es el hecho es que, aunque muchos piensen que este es un juego de zombies típicos y no le encuentren sentido al hecho que puedas matar uno aquí disparándoles a la cabeza, el juego explica bastante bien que más que zombies en realidad son infectados. Específicamente infectados con el virus de la gripe verde, un virus que causa mutaciones y ataques agresividad intensa en los contagiados; por ello el que dichos infectados puedan morir como lo haría una persona normal. A su vez que los infectados especiales son mutaciones de personas con características especiales; quienes en su conjunto buscarán contagiar o asesinar a quienes no estén infectados y por ello es que no buscan alimentarse de su carne cómo lo harían los típicos zombies.    … Expand

    Left 4 Dead, Never Dead. Released over 10 yrs and it's still enjoyable. The only thinig I hate is the pvp community, not friendly at all to the newbie.

    Classic survival team like game and a classic. It's a shame this game didn't got any big updates, since a few people keeps playing this to this day and they could have done good new maps. Probably one of the best sequel games ever made.

    Left 4 Dead 2 does many things right. The zombie theme is a matter of taste, but everything from gameplay to graphics is just lovely. While the single-player is pretty fun, the multiplayer rules and is a real time waster! Wrap up your friends and have a great time!

    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.

    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

This game is best when you are playing with 8 people in versus and trust me its amazing.The map design the ai of the game allow the game to be as fair as possible with no **** weapon spawns cause the ai will give you loot base on how good you are doing and spawn zombies base on how good you are doing so there is no rng in this game .all the zombie and special infected are really well design. the zombie scream , the music for the special infected(especially the tankmusic) and the ai of the zombies are great (unlike back 4 blood) buy the game and play with your friends now its literally 5 -1 dollars don't buy back 4 blood. oh and the characters are great unlike back 4 blood and well written… Expand

    + Online, LAN, splitscreen and mixed coop.

    - Gunplay simply isn't great. If you're not playing offline, zombies often react to damage with delay, the weapon accuracy and recoil feel wrong, the reloading animations are tragically out of sync with the actual moment when the weapon is ready to shoot. This cannot be fixed with mods if you want to play online.
    - Insufficient tools for online play, including muting chat messages from other players or removing them from the lobby you own, information about how far along the game you're joining is and so on.
    - Friendly AI is awful. Enemy AI is also bad, but it doesn't ruin the challenge; friendly AI being awful ensures a miserable solo experience and can be frustrating even with 2 players at times. The main issues are not helping players who are pinned in time or at all and getting killed by the bosses - Witch and Tank - because they don't treat them as a threat.    … Expand

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.

    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.

    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.
