The Game is good so far, But the arm,hand and weapon models are so stupid looking and over sized....that's like the only complaint i have so far..

TBH once you've used the hunting rifle, the other models aside from the deagle aren't noticable.

Tried it, fun indeed. Nice way to get a taste of what Versus play should be. A note, though: the plugin doesn't guarantee bug-free gameplay, of course. I found myself spawned at impossible locations quite some times.

This can be solved by doing 'set_infected 0' and then back to 1, which causes you to respawn. By doing that, I uncovered another nice bug, which leads to hilarious situations. Each time you go back to being a survivor, an EXTRA SURVIVOR is created. So in the end, you'll end up with a pack of survivors. Here, check this out:



Here you see 3 Nicks posing for a Frits who recently died:



The bots seem to like this cabin a lot. They're not keen on leaving it, even though they tend to leave the back door open. The director even stops sending them any zombies. Is 'mercy' a character feature of L8D's new Director?



At low health, they suddenly decide to make a run for the alarm switch. They don't really survive, though, given their low health:



Just to give you guys an impression. Sometimes it's quite hilarious, for example when all bots of the same character say something in chorus. Give it a try, just for laughs!
