Quiz time: What's the best weapon in Left 4 Dead?

False. The best weapon in Left 4 Dead is the propane tank. It's a shame you rarely get to see them (especially not in the demo maps), but sv_cheats 1 enables you to take full advantage of their awesomeness. I've spent hours just throwing them around, up into the air and shooting them with a shotgun. The particle effects are really great, and while messing around with some cvars we found one of particular use.

If you use the command z_throwforce, which is at default 2500, and set it to double, triple, or quadruple that, you throw all items much farther and harder than normal. In the case of the propane tank, the force is so strong that it actually explodes on contact. Awesome. If you don't like the first 5 seconds of the video below, you won't like the remaining minute.

We've seen some questions on voice command binds and we've found how to do it. To say Cover me, use the following command:

vocalize PlayerCoverMe

To find all of the rest along with some instructions go to our new configs page.

At the time of this posting, the Left 4 Dead demo has more players than Counter-Strike and only 50 less than CS:S. The peak users today of L4D stands at 25,090.

zombie mods from source as very very different from L4D. Almost incomparable IMO. It was about barricading and staying alive. Not really running around in the open.

What? I mean, in almost every post of yours you make some sort of claim or comment but then never actually explain or support it in anyway.

Because the idea of a zombie game came from the CSS mod?

Valve pretty much took the idea and expanded on it, I'm sure if they could of had the zombie's pop out at you in random places and have the players fight against them they would. But considering it was a mod and they didnt stand to make any money like valve is, there is no reason to put all the work into creating the levels and coding everything for nothing, I'm sure these people like to make mods, hence the reason they made one, but I'm sure they have lives

So in essence, they did take the idea of it and made a game out of it, and they will make the money, but even if they outright deny it, you can't think that someone at valve got the idea to make the game from the zombie mod.

im not really seeing the point of the whole "valve took the zombie idea and ran with it from a mod or two" since l4d has be coming since 05, one year after dawn of the dead, and 3 after 28 days later. it's not an idea that was just copied.

Zombie mod is completely different from L4D. What are you guys on about ? Zombie Panic source is also nothing like L4D to be honest.
