Left4Dead Survival Pack coming next month

Author Joe Martin on www.bit-tech.net reported (Published: 24th March 2009)

The first add-on pack to be released for Left4Dead is due out on the Xbox 360 next month, a Microsoft spokesperson confirmed today. No official word was offered on the PC version of the same pack, though it's likely that the release will be concurrent for both platforms.

The new downloadable pack, called the Survival Pack, is the first planned expansion for Valve's co-op zombie shooter and should help to rejuvenate the game by adding in new game modes and campaigns for Versus Mode - namely the two existing campaigns, Dead Air and Death Toll, neither of which are currently unlocked for Versus.

The other major addition to game will be the new Survival Mode, which will pit players against endless swarms of zombies that continue to come in increasingly difficult waves. The aim is to stave off the inevitable defeat for as long as possible, accruing points in the process.

Speaking with CVG a Microsoft PR confirmed that the Xbox 360 update will be out, for free, on April 21st. Although there's no confirmation for the PC release date, we do know that it will still be free on the PC at least.

Valve Plays New Survival Map

March 25, 2009 - Left4Dead Update Released

Game and Client Changes

• Introduced fatigue to the melee attack in versus mode. You will see a HUD display when your melee swing is cooling down
• Boomer vomit will now pass through common infected
• Addressed some surround sound detection issues
• Fixed a rare crash when exiting Left4Dead on Windows Vista
• Fixed a case where the complete all expert campaigns achievement was not being rewarded

Dedicated server changes

• Corrected an issue where Windows based dedicated were sending spurious shutdown notifications to the master causing them to delist temporarily
• Fixed dedicated servers not resetting the versus team swap correctly--you could join a dedicated server that had a previous game that was swapped and arrive on the other team than what was selected in the lobby
• Renamed the tags for sv_search_key to use "key:" in the server tags instead of "sv_search_key." This should help with issues of the 63 character limit of server tags
• Fixed an occasional server crash related to voting

Left4Dead Update - March 12, 2009

• Fixed sv_search_key appearing in server browser
• Fixed issue where changing the sv_search_key did not update the master correctly
