'Left 4 Dead 2' First DLC Brings Back Zoey, Louis, Bill And Francis - NintendoPals.net Nintendo Friend Codes Forum

Now that most of the major releases are out, it seems like it's an ideal time for companies to start shouting to the heavens about their upcoming DLC releases. Take "Left 4 Dead 2," for example. The first DLC pack is coming sometime next spring and will highlight a chance meeting between the survivors of the first game and the survivors of "Left 4 Dead 2."

Set in rural Georgia, "The Passing" is a new campaign for "Left 4 Dead 2." In addition to standard campaign missions, new Scavenge, Versus and Survival maps will be added. Unfortunately it doesn't sound like the original "Left 4 Dead" survivors will be playable characters, but it does open some interesting doors, given that you've never had direct contact with any still-living beings in either game. Instead you're usually communicating through a door and delivering ridiculous bottles of Coke to hermits. The prospect of 8 survivors fighting off the horde together is kinda awesome, even if four of them are AI-controlled.

No specific release date or price to speak of, but Valve's Doug Lombardi did say the DLC will introduce a new "uncommon common" zombie (like the clowns in "Dark Carnival"), as well as a new melee weapon and a new gun.

My... head... just... ASPLODED!
I hope it won't be as short as the Crash Course DLC for L4D1 was...

AWESOME! I can't wait! It sounds so cool. And I want the original survivors! Bill was awesome, I miss Francis' hatred for various things as well as Louis' optimism and love for peels. And I hate Rochelle. She's annoying... I want cute Zoey back. D:

Either way, it would be really cool to have some sort of meeting between the two groups. Though it seems difficult since the original survivors are in the North, and the new ones are in the South. Oh well, as usual I'm sure Valve won't disappoint.

Lmfao I don't Rochelle too much either but all of them sorta grow on ya at some point, it's Zombie apocalypse thing

but HELL YEA bring on the DLC!

Francis and Zoey are awesome.

Haha, that's awesome. You gotta wonder how the original survivors went from Pennsylvania to Georgia though. I'm sure they'll mention it somehow when it gets here. Seems like the DLC is quite awhile away but I'm sure it'll be worth it.
