What was that? An ambush?

Game installed, Hamachi configured, Skype and mic are up. Let me know if you guys are playing tonight. Also, till what version do I have to patch the game?
I thought you all had completed the game & stopped playing l4d2 since Ethan last mentioned. Glad to see that you all have resumed playing it even for the sake of the dlcs. By the way, Valve has released another custom made dlc for l4d2 classed Cold Stream (beta).

Sunny, patch it up to V2.0.5.5. That's the version we all are on right now.
Varun, we had completed the game last time. Only the DLC's remained. Decided to take a break and got hooked to Borderlands last year. Since we recently completed that game and it's DLC's too, we thought of reviving our favorite Zombie shooter.
We have to complete 'The Passing' and 'The Sacrifice' on "mission impossible" difficulty this time.
BTW what's the beta DLC all about? New campaign?

Yup, a campaign not officially made by Valve but being released by it. After you have completed the dlcs, I suggest you try certain mutation modes. They are hell lot of fun & will pump up your adrenaline. Lemme know if you are interested in playing a mutation & I will guide you how to host it.

Bang! Bang!
Why do you guys play like that?Buy the game for once!
I have to agree with him guys. This game totally deserves to be bought. Apart from that it will solve your updating problem. You guys are totally killing the fun for others. I ask this question to the guys playing l4d2 here: mention the name of one game that you have bought recently.

I appreciate what both of you are pitching for out here, but I would strongly suggest keep the discussion pinned to the game, rather than what copy we are using. I never poke or push anyone out here, randomly, to know what copy they are using. They have the game, they want to play, they want to discuss about the game, THAT'S IT!
If you want to share any of your multi-player experience with this game, I'm down with that. But if you want to keep probing about "what we ought to buy?" and something along that lines, then you're in the wrong place.
On topic, troops we assemble at 21:00 hours tonight. Bring your weapons, your defibs, your med kits and your adrenaline shots. We got some major zombie ass-kicking to do.

LOL ethan..chill dude...nobody needs to announce or "PROBE" what version of the game you are playing because the methods you use scream about the genuineness of the game. Take it in a light manner buddy.
If you are wondering why people are insisting you to buy this or that then the reason could be this: there are guys like me who want to play with you guys but won't be able to join you cos many here have the steam(or legitimate) version. Since you guys have the "AHEM" version, guys like me won't be able to join you & so many here are bound to insist you to get the legitimate version so that all can play together. Try to understand our feeling by placing yourself in our perspective.
Also if you dont like people to tell you what you ought to buy & what not, then simply ignore the post. The other guy is merely suggesting & not forcing you. Getting angry just bcos one doesn't owns the game & the other person suggesting you to buy it, is totally pointless my friend. I hope you all don't get hyper here because I have no intention of infuriating anyone. I am just making a healthy discussion here.
Anyways, I have said what I felt like speaking & I have no intention of suggesting you to buy any game anymore so you guys can gladly carry on with your ventures in l4d2. Coming back to the topic, did anyone of you try bleedout mutation ? Its an awesome mutation: no medkits, continous horde chasing you, your health continues to decrease & you only have the pills to survive.

My apologies for being so blunt, but this statement of yours "You guys are totally raping it. I ask this question to the guys playing l4d2 here: mention the name of one game that you have bought recently." really put me off. That statement was totally uncalled for and hence I had to get down right to the point. Any-hoo, I would like to reflect on your point of view as well, which is totally understandable, but for now, we'll just draw a neutral line, perform a secret truce hand-shake & move on with the game.
Update: We have Sam filling in Sunny's spot. Started the game from scratch on demand, and this time, it's on impossible difficulty. I can't believe we're were stuck in the second level for over an hour now. The game is unforgiving on this difficulty level. Friendly fire being ON is another challenging part. Tips on survival are welcome.

WOW! the second pic should win me a "Best Multi-player pose of the year" award or something. A Molotov + an SMG + Agent = KAPOW!
Nice pics Quan. Now you are our groups official photographer.

Tip:
1. Move in a pre-decided path rather than running here & there. This could lead to accidental friendly fire. This is absolutely needed when playing on expert mode.
2. Carry one sniper minimum. Keep guys with the shotguns ahead like 2 in front & 2 at the back. The guys at the front should stay crouched most of the time.
3. Deducing from the screenshot, I would suggest you to avoid the expert mode if you are falling short of human players.

Done. We usually spread out to avoid getting caught in the heat. But there are times when our team is trapped in confined areas, which has little to no room for scattering off. We got boned by massive amounts of hordes in such cases and some or the other members gets in the line of fire.
Quan_Chi was crouching all the time. I'm doing that for gaining precision on distant kills.
We are just one player short, momentarily. Sam will get his game tomorrow and then we'll have all human players. We were just giving it a test run for today since Sunny opted out. AI players are good on the healing front, but lousy on the dodging front.
You already have the answer to my 3rd tip.
