Hi roundy, i didnt pay for it, i got it as a gift. I kinda share your opinion - its pretty much the same as the old game, just PLUS something extra, like guns and stuff. Prettier graphics, more zombeys.. i dunno, i still like it, but its not much else than old+extra...
Btw, i went to eurogamer expo in london yesteday, i went there as press for a russian l4d fansite:) I took an interview from Chet Faliczek - a guy from Valve.. was fun:) I didnt tell him the game is not worth it though... he said there are 4x more preorder than for first l4d..

You live in the UK. I live in Germany. 98% of the Movies are Cut. Only in Germany! In Germany you can't buy exa. the full uncut Bruce Lee Movies. I can't use the uncut L4d. It's not working. Its the Geoscoring you know. but i'm adult! i want all uncut. All is cut. Kane and Lynch, GTA all Titles, Half Life. The Wolfenstein Series ist totally forbidden. I you use Wolf3D uncut in germany. oh, you can get really problems! for a game!!!!! this is germany! You know Counter Strike?
The government wanted to ban the game! 3 years fight of Gamers vs. The Government!
The government mean that this like games make Amok Runners!!!!! Really, this is no joke!

and if you mean, import all stuff. No way. All goods goes Customs! And then they have your name, and you really got problems. There are known cases since had people more than 2000 euro penalty to pay, for a 40 euro Game.

*Update*
The Australian Demo Version is Cut do. But here a Fix:
http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=836639

but Valve heard about that. After you Change your ID, you must go online. And then? Steam sync the demo. And YOUR old Steam ID is valid. The Fix never more work. Nice.

the game is coming out in a couple of hours, i really doubt i will be able to play it in the evening.. the usual bug issues, "Game unavailable, try later" etc. But, still, I think it should be ok. Im actually curious to play through the campaigns.
Cynyx, is the question about which server to have still up?

New server is planned for the end of december, beginning of january. not before. So, it's same for an eventual L4D2 server. I want feedback about the game before.

Feedback from me: i was today in Münster in a Retail Game Shop 'XGames'. "Can i play the uncut Version?". "No, not here in Germany." And thats why i don't buy the game. ( the uncut game price was 39 Euro ).
Sorry if you mean i whine everytime about this.

Scheiss auf die deutsche Zensur, die USK, die FSK, die CDU, die Wichser die seit 25 Jahren Sachen auf dem Index lassen, was absolut lächerlich ist. Aber letztens noch im WDR: Story über Nord Korea. Was wird als erstes gezeigt in der Doku? Wie eine junge Frau mittem auf dem zugefrorenen See halb im Eis und halb oberhalb liegt. Schon halb verwest. Und das alles 3 Minuten lang in Vollbild und Nahaufnahme!

Well, played 4 out of 5 campaigns. The game is definitely fun, it is somehow different from l4d... not as serious, i guess or something. The score calculating system makes the game much more competitive and fair though... Dunno, i m not sure when Im going to play l4d1 next time.

Played the demo and was rly surprised how some little changes spiced up the game.
Especially the infested i really like.
Love the "jockeys" e.g. (although they are quite similar to the well known "headcrab").

First I was a bit pissed when L4D2 came out because i just bought L4D1 and was hoping they would update it to L4D2.
But nvm, next time i look 4 it in the stores.
Argh!

I think the game is worth it, to be fair. I did have some doubts about it being same as L4D, but its actually very different. Gameplay is significantly changed, maps are much bigger and more free exploration, of course there are certain points through which you have to go, like a ladder or a hole in the wall, so that infected can plan an attack on you there. But the game does feel very different to l4d and it is very much fun, especially since now u can see what the zombeys had for breakfast if you shoot them in the stomach... you can also see their spine and ribs....
