Or an incredibly shallow person. Either way, I'm wasting my time.

The key word there was "more". I was just saying that she has more character development than Zoey, and that's simply because she has more dialogue spread out throughout the campaigns. I never said she had good character development.

EDIT: Do you see any deep character development with Barney from HL2 or the Heavy Weapons Guy?

nameless and faceless?
this nameless guy with a crowbar begs to differ

L4D: Love the game.

L4D2: Liking the game (thus far)...HATE the characters.

I only dislike Rochelle because she steals first aid kits.

the game isnt finished, the pathing is bad and the ai is a downgrade from l4d1, its like playing some of the larger community campaigns from the first game which given they were generated by the userbase were incredible, but didn't stack up as they didn't have months of polish. Please finish your work and complete the bloody game

These guys aren't MEANT to be Meme Spitting characters like the original - these are four who you go on a full journey with, from beginning to end - not a few scattered campaigns.

They're meant to be more serious than the originals - or didn't you work that out?

I loved these guys cause it felt more like I was in a Survival HORROR game with them.

SkaKing713 · 11-19-2009, 10:56 PM

I always play as Rochelle. She is kind of odd tho in terms of lines.

Kiff · 11-19-2009, 11:01 PM

does anyone think it would be interesting to have a survivor who was a cosplay fanatic pre-infection earth?

some fat single man who dresses up as goku or something?

RomeoJGuy · 11-19-2009, 11:07 PM

OP is qqing because he can't post meme videos of horribly posed Gmod ragdolls with crappy facial work, etc.

FindWaldoOrDIE · 11-19-2009, 11:21 PM

ATTENTION: I like all the characters in L4D and L4D2.

Strong I · 11-19-2009, 11:32 PM

This entire line will make you love the survivors with an uncontrollable passion.

ELLIS: Hey look! Kiddyland!

COACH: Sometimes it feels like we're babysittin', don't it?
