Yes I'm aware of that. But this is hardly how it should look in the game. What I'm trying to get at is how these people do terrible jobs of porting/editing the campaigns instead of keeping them as they should be.

Video games are not real-life, though.
Though I somewhat actually like the black ground on there.
WHOA A REASON TO USE FLASHLIGHTS IN L4D2?
Seriously, L4D2 was way too bright.
I don't know if this has been asked before, but how are the survivors so able to just shrug off being shot in the face with nothing more than a "Hey, cut it out!"?

I know right? Even on realism they can take a lot of shots.
Because video game.
I wish valve went with the second rendition of Rochelle. She's actually realistically pretty and looks like she's supposed to be black. And FFS they chose the wrong voice actor and gave her bad lines.

Dunno why i was thinking of that this late, just hate what they did with her.

That kind of of open hair is difficult to create without making it look royally fucked up when turning the head - but I agree on the Rochelle dialog, unlike any other L4D character she simply doesn't have any.

They should have had plenty of time to fix it if they didn't overhaul her look every 5 minutes during development. :v:
[QUOTE=Butthurter;30642405]blame valve, the voice actor did a great job
shes just got unfunny lines and extremely annoying screams just like zoey did, its not really the voice actors faults since the mood and tone of voice was probably described to them on how they had to do it[/QUOTE]
Yeah, never blame the voice actor unless their voice is genuinely terrible. The lines and how to say them are how Valve wanted it, they're not the fault of the voice actor.

Unless they're adlibbing. Then you can blame them.
Rochelle was doomed to fail from the very beginning. Even in the very first trailers, [I]no one[/I] liked her.
Rochelle is just kind of bland. She doesn't really have much of a character to her.
[QUOTE=razorbeamz;30650029]Rochelle is just kind of bland. She doesn't really have much of a character to her.[/QUOTE]
When me and my friend play L4D2 together we don't even consider Rochelle a character. We refer to her as "it" and will leave her behind all of the time because we just hate her character so much.
I would have loved to see The Parish at night. New Orleans looks awesome at that time.
The only reason people don't like Rochelle is because she's a sassy black woman while Zoey is a cute nerdy gamer girl and therefore infintely more fappable to nerds
Don't deny it, you know it's true
I like what Valve was trying to do with Rochelle, and I like what Valve did with Zoey. There's nothing unique about Rochelle though, in the fact that Valve didn't expand on Rochelle's personality past whatever is in the bio and a few Anchorman quotes. She's just too plain.
I do like Zoey more because she's a nerdy girl, but at the same time Valve toned that down so it's more realistic (i.e. Zoey isn't making video/movie references every moment).

If you consider "Axe me a question" sassy then just :frog:
"Axe me a question, I dare you"
I laugh everytime I hear that.
On a side note:
Something I don't like of the L4D survivors in L4D2 is the lack of news voice clips, I mean, they added warnings voice clips for the news infected, but it's gets a little annoying heard a laugh, or a "Yeah", or "you wanna got to see this".

For me, half of the clips won't even play for some reason. I try getting Bill or Louis to taunt and half the time, they're completely silent. Sometimes they don't even play the simple "Look!" command when I bring up the radial menu. I liked the idea of bringing back the L4D1 characters, but Valve's execution of it was fucking terrible.

But she isn't even all that sassy. She's just... there.

I'm not exactly fond of Rochelle but it's people like you that are adding fuel to the fire. I'm guessing you're one of the people who would down a teammate for " playing that stupid character " too

People did that to me when I joined, then kicked me and got me banned from all of their servers :)
I really wish L4D2 was updated more often. I mean actual updates too. Not just a mutation.
Who likes L4D2 mods? I do, and I like making them:

[B]Survivalist Bill Outfit[/B]
After he got knocked unconscious and left for dead at that bridge, he woke up and immediately prepared to catch up to his friends at their island paradise.

[B]Teen Angst / Emo Zoey[/B]
I never went crazy for the original Zoey like everyone else did. Her original look seems bland compared to the other survivors. On seeing her my brain reads "insert girl-character here". I wanted Zoey's look to have more attitude, like her friends the [I]Namvet[/I], [I]Biker[/I], and [I]Manager[/I].

I've also made replacements for Rochelle and Ellis, they're slightly older models, but more ambitious and 100%-from-scratch character concepts:

They're very camera shy in that shot. :p Their faces are my first major attempt at "real" people. I took that screenshot more for their bodies side-by-side. I think they look better in motion.
