Might Be A Long Shot But...

So, I tried out l4d2 about 2 years and only finished the first Dead Center Campaign with my sibling. Things happened and we never played through the rest of it. Also, I barely remember how Dead Center was, so it'd be new to me again.

I've thought about playing it singleplayer, but I feel that it'd be much more fun with others. Quickplay is also an option but I've read that randoms sorta just speed run the campaign. I want to simulate what it would be like when the game first came out and everyone was just as "clueless" just like me.

That's the longshot, how hard is it find others who are new to l4d2 like me?

Do you think the guns featured make sense, regionally?

Strange question I know but I was just wondering if the weapons featured/chosen/whatever in L4D make sense from a regional perspective, like sure you have the common stuff like police-issued pistols and wood stock shotguns, but what about stuff like the SPAS or SCAR? Just wondering if anyone thinks there are rifles/shotguns/etc that would make more sense than whatever was chosen for the game. Maybe something like a double-barrel? Revolvers? A lever-action instead of the chrome shotgun?

Personally I think Valve did a good job with the choice of weapons, it's only melee stuff like the katana and cricket bat that definitely raises some eyebrows, especially for the South.

[Modding Help] Swapping Tier 2 weapons to Tier 1

I'm trying my hand at a weapon script weapon mod to apply changes to the Scout and Awp. I've made all of my changes so far but after I set the Scout to tier 1, I haven't been able to get it to spawn in maps. Does it require a list change some where else or am I attempting a fools errand?

Y'all enjoy my useless/semi-useless L4D2 facts series? Also y'all know any facts not many people know of that I could cover?

Title says it all, you like these little info clip dumps I do and think you guys could help add fuel to the fire? Because I like uncovering and/or showing small or big facts

If you could pick just ONE custom campaign and turn it into an official DLC for Left 4 Dead 2, which one would you choose? Preferably non-joke ones.

This would be a tough one for me, but I'm gonna trust my gut and choose Cold Front.

Pre-Infection Hunter

I based how he might look like using his model and a bit from his voice actor, Mike Patton

The pre-infection name I gave him is Austin Lynch.

Xbox 360 Mutations?

I can never find lobbies on xbox for versus survival (my fav) or any other mutations, as well as Scavenge! If anyone else wants to join these matches my gamer tag is MilkySweetGuts (first post- sorry if this is the wrong place for making xbox friends!)

I can’t play online?

I keep getting this error message on Left 4 Dead 1 & 2. “You must be signed in to a gamer profile with a multiplayer privileges to play online”. I’ve tried everything I can think of / what I’ve found online. I’ve hard restarted my console. I’ve quit the game and restarted. I’ve made sure my profile isn’t age restricted. I’ve tried booting up another 360 game to make sure I’m signed in. I’ve deleted and re uploaded my profile to my Xbox. I even upgraded my subscription from core to ultimate. Help is much appreciated… it’s not the same single player…

What the fu-

So all I got was steam and left 4 dead 2. Seriously I can send a photo of the USB stick storage. And I don't get why this game takes up over 100 gigs of storage and still doesn't fully install.
