[SFM] How it FEELS to Play L4D2

Credits toward the bottom.
I know it's a big description, but it's also a big video for me
This is structured around characters, guns, melee weapons, fighting the specials, friendly fire and the random humor the game invokes. If I create a follow up to this expect...
Blue TF2 Soldier as Bill (More Epic)
Big hordes
Survivors working together and helping each other
Taking down the Tank as a team
More environmental particles in general
Consumables and throwables
More random cutaways that I think would be funny (Jack Baker part 2, Vampires part 2, TF2 Mercs Play L4D)
I started working on this a long time ago but didn’t have any clear direction. Some scenes I animated sooner than others, and I think I improved a lot as I kept adding more. The very last scene I made was Coach being defibbed, and Coach crashing into Earth was the first one I made. It was going to be an intro for “L4D’s impact on the world” but ended up becoming an outro
Bhop 4 Dead and Coach Controls a Jockey are the only vids I reused, the former being a bit different but mostly the same. I figured they fit in with the title.
I'm putting the list of mods I used on pastebin because it's A LOT. I might be missing some too... If I did not give proper credit contact me via my email or DM
pastebin.com/H...
Whitaker (forgot this one)
steamcommunity...
The mods in the opening gameplay are “Black Mesa Coach”, “Crowbar with KF2 Krovel Animations”, and “Black Mesa: Unforeseen Consequences”
The remixed track that plays in the opening was NOT made by me. It was made by Placeboing a long time ago and it's unlisted
• Left 4 Dead 2 Keyboard...
Other tracks include
Skin on our Teeth (L4D2 OST)
I am Not a Moron (Portal 2 OST)
Marily Set Me Free (Casino Versus Japan)
Your Brains (Jonathan Colton, L4D2 OST)
Metalized Tank Theme (L4D2 OST)
Gun Range Bonus Round (RE4 Remake OST)
Closing Credits Theme (HL1 OST)
HL2 Lambda Core (HL2 OST)
Burger King Ad intrumental
Thanks for watching!

I have no idea what I just watched... But this had me laughing and confused at the same time! Coach died of cringe, got kicked out of heaven, threw a concert and blew up/faceplanted the world... a pretty good representation of a regular L4D2 game.

Gosh, I wish it was possible to break a tanks rock with a melee weapon, or count a spitters spit with a melee!

[@DukeOfGumby]

Lol I know you can only stop rocks with bullets and objects but I figured some people might wonder if it’s actually possible and attempt it. Back in the day I’d always troll teammates into thinking they could lol Most of this was me experimenting with random stuff intended to be b-roll, but I have better direction going forward so expect more accurate scenes from me eventually

[@howaboutno3575]

@@DukeOfGumby to be fair, considering the game proclaims you can kill 100's of zombies with a single nightstick, I don't think you have to focus on being too realistic haha

[@scarymeunster9095]

Heheh, about that… Well, it was and should still be possible. I’m serious. You can play slugger and whack that thing outta the park. I’m completely serious right now, you can swing a golf club or a nightstick at a car-sized hunk of cement and shatter it. The wiki even stated it at one point. As far as I know it even works with shoves too. Not sure if it was altered in the Last Stand, but last I checked, it’s possible, just extraordinarily difficult and completely impractical.

[@leo_funny587]

It IS possible to destroy a tank's rock with a melee. However, the level of precision it takes renders even trying absolutely useless even in pro matches, since ping, tickrate and netsettings make it nigh impossible. When it happens, it is mostly random rather than intended.

[@HoHoGamings]

yes you can break tank's rock by melee it or shot it

@@BOT_AHHHH yeah but like the survivors dont even try anything but it could be that the jockey confuses the survivors in the moment but then again why wouldn't you try to get him off your back, like there could be a tank coming after you and you vant do anything cause you have a jockey

@@Agateflame That make sense
