EST is 5 hours behind GMT, so 16:00. Ping might not be too great though.

Its 1:20 and we finally completed the demo on expert! Took forever but was awesome when we finally did it, came so close to death haha.

We did it once when i as playing and were close the second time but then the tank came up behind us when we we were on low helth :-( Brilinat fun as always- makes me think how much fun i have had in this 1.5 levles from just 1 campain (about 15-25 mins) when there are 4 (i think) 75 miniute levles

I tried the demo tonight, seems pretty repetitive. I guess if you really like Dawn of The Dead and similar movies you might get into it? I don't see how it could be fun for more than 10-20 hrs, even in co-op. TF2 won't be leaving my top spot any time soon.

Bare in mind that is only a tiney section of the full game + no vs mode which looks to be fun- its not fun in anything less than expert/ the second less hard setting under that as that is when it does get scary with so many zombies and virtualy unstopable tanks.... Its best played with freinds/ guru3d membes too

I didn't really like it at first but it grows on you really quickly. I like the randomness of the gameplay; sometimes you're all celebrating surviving a wave of zombies with 1 health left when the AI director will throw something particularly nasty your way, just to keep it interesting.

Great pics guys I especially like this one:

lol at the panic in his eyes

Dedicated servers don't work for a lot of people, only lan.

Even the openserverbrowser command doesn't detect and servers

I'm really loving the co-op feel with L4D, I can see myself playing this with my m8s regularly.

the game is so much fun!

nice play rifle grunt and morbias!

even with the little bug on subway (****ing conection problem ;p)
I'll play this game for years, for sure lol @.@

Stop killing me, director u.u

for the problem at subway begining, looks like you can resolve the problem changing rate to 3000 (the update change the Rate value to 1000000000, and that's the problem). I didn't tried it myself.

EDIT: Patch out, could be an answer for todays problems ;D

EDIT2: patch didn't solve subway begin lag, you need to change the rate to 3000 to pass this area, after i recomend putting previous setting (because game gets laggy with only 3000), mine was at 20000

or the lag when on big action could be from a very high intensive program (boinc) being operating in background, but rate 20000 had fixed it, so it has to do whit rate ;p

question what drivers is everyone using? In parts in the subway sometimes when I would play it the floors and part of the walls would be purple, any flat surface. Using 169.21 drivers.
