Six new downloadable skins were released last week and offer a whole new feel to the game."

DFC : Left 4 Dead demonstrates potential of online distribution N4G
PC News from N4G | Left 4 Dead
PC - Left 4 Dead - DFC : Left 4 Dead demonstrates potential of online distribution Chris Remo from Gamasutra writes:

"A new study by analysis firm DFC in conjunction with social media company GamerDNA has extensively compared Left 4 Dead user activity habits across PC and Xbox 360 -- and finds Valve's strategy of combining promotions and free updates may extend a game's shelf life dramatically.

Results of the study were released in the latest edition of the DFC Dossier publication, and are based on the activity of over 180,000 PC and Xbox 360 gamers via Steam, Xbox Live, and Xfire from the time of the game's release until May."

Left 4 Dead To Receive Community Content Upgrade N4G
PC News from N4G | Left 4 Dead
PC - Left 4 Dead - Left 4 Dead To Receive Community Content Upgrade Valve is gearing up for another Steam update that will incorporate more community content into Left 4 Dead. The beta authorizing tools which were released several weeks ago enabled users to create their very own campaigns. With this new update, those campaigns will now be easily accessible withing L4Ds UI. "Add-Ons" will be available under Extras for easy installing as well as under Multiplayer to play said campaigns online. One such custom campaign that has us pretty impressed even in its Beta stages is an homage to Resident Evil 3. The Authorizing tools will also be officially releasing with several new updates and tweaks. The update is expected to hit Steam next week.Is Valve trying to please some of those angered fans? Perhaps, but at least we will get to see more unique content headed to L4D.

Left 4 Dead Creation Tools Coming Next Week N4G
PC News from N4G | Left 4 Dead
PC - Left 4 Dead - Left 4 Dead Creation Tools Coming Next Week While the campaigns that shipped with Left 4 Dead were all pretty good, you do get sick of them after a while. Which is where custom, user-generated campaigns come in.

Next week, Valve will be updating Left 4 Dead so that these custom missions - like the Resident Evil 3 mod we showed you earlier in the day - are both more prominent within the userbase and are easier to download and play.

Firstly, with this update map creators will be able to package their content into a single file (a .VPK). This will make displaying, downloading and installing the campaigns a cinch for other users. The game's matchmaking system will also be updated to reflect this, with "extensive support for custom add-on campaigns"..

Raccoon City Being Remade in Left 4 Dead N4G
PC News from N4G | Left 4 Dead
PC - Left 4 Dead - Raccoon City Being Remade in Left 4 Dead Here's an excellent example of someone using the Left 4 Dead creation tools for their intended purpose - recreating Resident Evil 3's Raccoon City.

You'll have to forgive the frame rate, as mod author Outatime is still ironing out the bugs for this faithful recreation of Raccoon City in Left 4 Dead, but it's obviously well enough along that he's seen fit to release the beta 1.0 version of Raccoon City Streets to the general public..

Left 4 Dead 2 Acceptance Group Starts To Rise Up! N4G
PC News from N4G | Left 4 Dead
PC - Left 4 Dead - Left 4 Dead 2 Acceptance Group Starts To Rise Up! Left 4 Dead 2 has been announced for a release in November, less than a year after the original. Is this an odd choice? Sure it is. Is it a BAD choice? That's debatable. Did the announcement make you ANGRY? Now you've gone too far!

Obviously, people are pretty angry about this. But WHY? You have your knitpicks, your dislikes, and you wish they didn't release it so soon. But it isn't like Valve is FORCING you to buy it! If you don't like it, then just don't get it! It's that simple! Stick with the original L4D.
