To fix the freezing, turn off multi core rendering in options.

That helped a lot, but in co-op I still freeze. A lot less and a lot shorter times though.

Just because a game is popular, does not make it good. MW2 = good example.

But it is good.

CS is still the most played FPS.

I don't like it, but it's certainly on competetive gaming very good which obviously MW2 is not.

true. I'm just stating that your argument was invalid :s.

KS's statement is invalid. If I recall it accurately (correct me if I'm wrong) KS only ever played L4D for a few hours before declaring it crap, which is not hard to do. If you play singleplayer it'll appear mediocre at best. If you play in a pub you've got a 1/50 chance of getting a good game. However, if you get 3 friends with mics (or 7 for versus for the best competitive teamplay you'll ever experience) your opinion of the game will change very quickly. Unless of course you just hate everything source for unknown reasons like KS :wink:

I've played it about 4 hours and it seems okay. My only complaint so far is that it appears to have lost a bit of the atmosphere that made L4D1 so good, but I'll withhold judgment until I drill a few dozen hours into the game and check out all the gametypes.

Actually... SP sucks. First time I checked it out was ok since this game is something new. After that it was kind of dull. But it's not designed to play on SP.

But yeh, once you are playing with good people who know how to play it's a lot more fun.

The fun in this game is random. That's the only downside about L4D. That's why I am also not getting L4D2 because I was annoyed most of the times playing L4D on my own. Shouldn't get annoyed because of a game. Sure, it can be frustrating at times but playing with suckers is not fun.

I don't really like Survival though. But that Scavenger I've heared some good reports from.
