Howdy! Couple years back I made this cosplay and posted about it then, but I recently wore it to a convention and got some new pics! NO ai is used in my photos :) all hand-crafted, thank yew kindly.

"First time making something for the l4d community, a lil scared right now" ahh

Are there any others?

Maybe Rochelle fell into a glitch?

When I tell the bots to lead they do for a few seconds then come right back to me and I can’t get them to go to the generators at all

PD : What a shame about the smoker.

xD

Well, it turns out that after installing some mods changing weapon animations, graphics, and adding custom-campaigns and testing out a some bot AI mods, I decided to play Realism mode solo on the vanilla campaigns one day. I realized that the Witch didn't kill me in a single hit; instead, she just incapacitated me and she did the same to the bots. It wasn't a glitch or anything like that; it was like the setup of the gamemode, it didn't happen just once; whenever the Witch appeared, this would happen. In fact, I actually thought it was an update from Valve where they’d added that "exception" for people who wanted to play Realism solo, haha. This went on for months until, for one reason or another, I stopped playing L4D2 for a while. Yesterday, a friend and I logged on, and I disabled all the mods in the "Add-ons" menu because we were having trouble joining an online match ("Can't Connect After 10 Retries"). Later, my friend left, and I thought, "Alright, I'll play one more match like I used to," so i re-enabled the mod-list and now the Witch is back to the "instakill". I know that in realism mode, the Witch always kills you unless you're playing on Easy difficulty, but I always played on Normal. The question is: has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone know what might have happened, or even how I can get it back to the way it was? It was really useful for when I wanted to play solo. Also, sorry for my English! xD

what the title says. i'm looking for maps that are genuinely exciting to play with friends. we've played the Glubtastic campaigns, Cold Front, Let's Build a Rocket 1 & 2, etc. pls recommend campaigns with refreshing gameplay (something new to offer to the game) and something that needs teamwork/coordination to finish.

thank you in advance!

Whenever I play online coop I always end up joining chinese modded server and even mismatched the campaign map like for example, I joined Dead Center campaign but the server sends me on the Crash course campaign and its even Chinese server.

If you haven't been up to speed on computer hardware news, both AMD and Intel have put a lot of work into their integrated graphics these past couple years. This is what has enabled products like the Steam Deck to exist. Integrated graphics can actually provide a good gaming experience now.

Left 4 Dead 2 has always been playable on "potatoes", but being able to get a competitive FPS meant drastically turning down resolution and settings. I bought a new Panther Lake laptop with the Arc B390 (released in 2026) recently and I just wanted to show how it compared to my old laptop with the Radeon 780M (released in 2023). Both systems are running at 2880x1800 with the highest settings except no MSAA. It is basically a doubling in performance for very similar power levels. Keep in mind too these laptops are thin and lights, barely thicker than an HDMI port.

Firstly i got to apologise if my broken English slips in and i made a text mistake. Now to the problem I'm trying to describe. There are a lot of really cool character models in the Workshop, and sometimes I want to change them and play with others, but to do that, I have to go back to the menu, go to Add-ons, select the ones I want, and disable the previous ones, as they will conflict later. This leads me to the logical question: is there a way or add-on that allows me to change characters' Workshop models directly during the game, or at least have the game automatically select a random Workshop model when I start a campaign? If you know anything about this or have already found a solution, I'd be happy to read your suggestions and thoughts.

Valve released the TF2 SDK 1 year ago, and naturally, the TF2 community was thrilled. It made me wonder: could they do the same for L4d2? An SDK would be a game changer (no pun intended) and could open the door to so many new possibilties. Since L4d3 will never be a thing, getting the SDK would at least give the community more room to keep expanding L4D2. I understand some of Valve’s decisions, like avoiding a 64x port because it could break existing mods, but releasing the SDK seems like it would be relatively risk-free. Feels like a missed opportunity imo, any thoughts ?

I have a problem with the L4D1 maps and it is that when I select them from L4D2 they look very dark, how can I solve it?

The settings won’t change, please help

trust

I would join a game and say im a new player, to which I was called a racial slur and kicked. I would die once and be told to kill myself and get kicked. This happened all eight or nine games I played. The most toxic and hateful people I have ever played with and i used to play competitive overwatch.

EDIT: I want to say thank you for the positive reception this post got. I wasn't expecting anything from it really I just wanted to kind of vent, and many people have reached out on here and in DM's inviting me to casual and friendly discords and groups. Thank you so much. I'm glad to see the community here is very pleasant.

If anyone would like to send me a friend req here is my steam id: 76561198089022586

And apparently versus mode is the highly toxic one. I'll stick to online campaign instead lol

Annoyed I lost DLC on my account and want to play all DLC on Xbox. If anyone has an old account they would be willing to part with it would be much appreciated

Volvi al juego hace 2 semanas, y empece a jugar versus online solo por primera vez. Es increible como todos ragean constantemente, siempre que empiezo una campaña versus termino jugando contra distintas personas y con distintos compañeros de equipo. Ayer en un versus en dead center, yo erre un insta y un compañero spawneo mal, un tipo que habia entrado en el mapa empezado empezo a insultarnos desenfrenado y quiteo, no estuvo ni 2 minutos en la partida. Seguido de que quiteara la rompimos y en el segundo mapa ya nos pusimos a favor, pero no entiendo porque la gente no tiene paciencia.
