Thanks to your hard work
, we are releasing a beta version of Dead Air for Left 4 Dead 2 today.
This will be available on the Xbox 360 later this summer as part of the full Cold Stream DLC.
Besides adding melee weapo , we have made some changes to the 4th and 5th ma of the campaign.
Give them a few play throughs and let us know what you think.
Make sure to try some different strategies – e ecially in the finale.
We have also tried something new with the Scavenge map in this campaign.
I won’t give away the experiment here but it should be interesting to see how people choose to play the map.
Cold Stream and the rest of the Left 4 Dead 1 ma will be out later this summer as part of the Cold Stream DLC.

Bleed Out Versus, Movie Fan, Spawn Distances
Bleed Out Versus
Now you have a good excuse for rushing through Versus.
There is no permanent Survivor health, it is all temporary and it is ticking down. Even if you don’t normally play Versus, this is a great mutation to try. The action is frantic and fast as team wipes are always just a few seconds away.
Movie Fan
Have you watched any live action Left 4 Dead movies on YouTube 60% of you have, 30% of you have not and 9% are just confused. What this really mea is 39% of you need to visit YouTube and search for some Left 4 Dead related movies. The community is making some really awesome stuff.
Spawn Distances
We made a change to shrink the finale awn distances from 600 units to 300 units. In this week's poll, let us know what you think. We have tested this change heavily but if you find any oddity with a Community Campaign or our own campaig , please let us know.
July 7, 2011 - L4D Team
We asked for 20,000 players to get the Stream Cro er achievement by Sunday night.
You started playing at 10am on Wednesday morning.
Four and half hours later you surpa ed the 20,000 target.
By 5pm you pa ed 30,000.
By this morning at 10am – a mere 24 hours later you hit 60,774!
Thanks! This is a great stre test on Cold Stream.
If you can, keep playing and submitting bugs this weekend.
We have a bunch of bug reports and feedback – seems some of you don’t believe in purple and black checkerboard paintings.
For Cold Stream the campaign this mea we can fix those bugs, continue tweaking some game play and do our final performance optimization pa .
The rest of the campaig included in the DLC are also being worked on as we modify some locatio and make some optimization improvements on them as well.
Since you hit your mark, this mea we are going to unlock Dead Air early.
We are going to try and release it as early as po ible but will release it on July 22nd the latest.
It i ’t currently ready for release as we have been working on The Terminal and Finale ma and need to test them more internally.
What else is coming?
We have been working on and testing a new version of the Dark Carnival finale and some gameplay changes for finales in general.
We want to get some more of these changes out and tested on the PC.
Once those are solid and our new campaig are ready, we will go into the certification proce on the Xbox 360 and then release.
What date is that?
Hard to say but with your help it just got closer.
*While we cro ed streams we did avoid total protonic reversal.
Good job everybody.
July 6, 2011 - L4D Team
While we are still tweaking Cold Stream and making some game play changes, we really want people to pound on the Cold Stream ma and help us find any bugs.

Blast the infected to shreds with M60s.
Swords can slice up some fun. Chai aws can tear apart the infected. But you need to get close for both and well… chai aws are really loud! Time to go with the ultimate gun, you and three friends armed with M60s and unlimited ammo. This is going to get me y.
Midnight Riders Comic?
Last poll we asked what you thought about the idea of a Midnight Rider’s Comic.
We will admit; we aren’t surprised.
70% of you want a comic, 14% of you have a negative outlook on life, and 16% of you are dirty liars… How did you know it said you can’t read unle you could read it!?!?
Cold Stream Crescendo
Last update we made a change in the beta version of Cold Stream’s first map. Originally the final bit of the map before the safe room was a boarded over culvert leading down to the door.
It made a great place to hide and then charge while the Survivors came down the tu el.
We made a change to experiment with a bunker.
The bunker has a large steel door that needs to be moved and alerts the horde causing them to come streaming out as you try and enter.
The second way also introduces a one way drop down into the pa age so all Survivors needs to jump at the same time or at least make sure not to be smoked up top.
So what does everyone think of the change?
And if you haven’t played it, based on the descriptio – what do you think you would prefer?
Please make sure to pick the right choice if you played or not.

No more fighting over what ca to grab first. This Mutation aw only one group of ca at a time, so survivors know exactly where to go. There is only one problem: the Infected know exactly where they are going.

Sorry for the recent lack of updates, we have been working on a surprise and here it is.
Matthew Lourdelet (2 Evil Eyes) has been working on a new community campaign – Cold Stream.
We loved 2 Evil Eyes and Cold Stream looks even more promising with i ovative game play arenas and effects.
Matthew has really shown that there are still plenty of new ideas in L4D2 modding.

We are one week away from the final chapter and the DLC.
People have been asking about what is ca on (the official story) – the game or the comic?
The Comic is the official version of events, but Left 4 Dead has always been about organic story telling between you and your friends, so we wanted to not force you into one story line in the game.
You get to choose the ending and see how it plays out.

With the first dozen Mutatio out we wanted to take a minute and talk about the Mutatio .
Overall the Mutatio and weekly polls have been a great succe and an amazing way for us to get feedback from the community.
Don’t worry we still have more Mutatio coming and we will also be tweaking and bringing back some of our favorites.
The idea behind the Mutatio was simple. Left 4 Dead 2 is played by many different players and types of players.
Some players have 300+ hours played in almost daily games and some players only play in weekly casual games with friends.
We wanted to create weekly events that mixed up the game rules to experiment with gameplay and made people look at the game in new ways.

We are releasing the Left 4 Dead 2 Authoring Tools and Left 4 Dead 2 Add-on Su ort today.
PLAYERS:
If you are not looking to design but play custom campaig all you need to do is i tall the add-on su ort package.
Just go into steam and open up the
Look for the entry labeled
Left 4 Dead 2 - Add-on Su ort
click and i tall it. This download is sizable, but will update your L4D2 i tallation to allow ru ing ANY map, including custom ma made for the original
Left 4 Dead
Once i talled, you do not need to run this a lication, it will always be active.
We will be updating the Left 4 Dead 2 game UI to include links to this package when a licable but for now please just download it directly.
If you see any mi ing textures or models from your favorite map let us know in the forums.
DESIGNERS:
Besides also downloading the above file you will need to download the
Left 4 Dead 2 - Authoring Tools
. Downloading it will add a licatio , utilities, and example files that are useful for building L4D2 game add-o . These are similar to the tools released for Left 4 Dead, but include many updates and new features. Among the most useful are:
Gamemode Logic: Designers can now make a single map that can behave differently depending on the gamemode in which it is being played. This can dramatically reduce the file size of Campaign add-o , as the same map can be used for Co-op, Versus, Scavenge, and Survival.
Director Logic: Ma can now alter their layout and behavior depending on how "angry" the A.I. director is.
The better the Survivors are doing, the angrier the AI Director seems to get.
This allows you to base variable paths and other events on the player's skill and current conditio .
Scavenge Mode Su ort! All the elements map authors need to su ort Scavenge in their ma . This includes game pro as well as a full example in the form of Deadline 2, an updated tutorial campaign.
We have included an updated tutorial to help you get going and as always you can join the discu ion on the
What we want for New Years is to get to play your custom ma in Left 4 Dead 2.
For the best user experience and to take advantage of the new map and nav mesh formats, Left 4 Dead 1 Map Makers will want to compile Left 4 Dead 2 ecific versio of their map in the new tool.
Ha y Holidays,
The Left 4 Dead 2 Team

When it came time to photograph the box art of L4D1, our art staff had three goals. One, there should be a hand in it somehow. Two, the hand should have a thumb bitten off, so customers would look at the four fingers remaining on the hand and think, "Hey, four." Three, under no circumstances would we use Photoshop. L4D is a visceral experience, and its box art deserved the same a roach. Valve artist and L4D1 hand model Andrea Wicklund was more than ha y to help.
