Dark Carnival was really fun and had a great ending. Let's do Dark Carnival again. This time, I want to avoid death at the end :D

What difficulty level were you thinking?
DAMN! Not fast enough for this one. The next one, perhaps, now that I have a machine that runs this well enough to play with others.
I was thinking the same settings as last game. Wondering what those were so I can host it. Unless you want to Tim? That would be ok.
@beansmyname: yeah, catch you next time!
It was a Gib Fest mutation on advanced.
Also, would a versus match be possible in the future? It takes longer, but we can fit up to 8 people in.
Is versus some kind of deathmatch?
Two teams of four. They alternate each leg of the campaign playing as the survivors and the special infected. You get points for how far you get through the level as the survivors. Team with the most points at the end wins.
Oh fun. Yeah, the next event could be that for sure. Could be fun.
Bean, it's yours if you want it. Some stuff blew up at work (not literally) and I have to go in at 4AM in the morning, so I'll be asleep before this starts.
Awww, catch you next time Travis.
Damn right you will! :)
Thanks for the heads up, Travis. Are event times localized?
Yes they are!
Yeah, if your timezone is set (and I am certain we require it is) then it should be localized. After you join you can add it to Google Calendar / iPhone / Android or whatever and that should localize it too :D
All set!
vdogmr called & the trains are running a little slow this afternoon. He should be home right around 7 and will hop in. Jon you can host it, :)
Great, ill try and figure how how to run a game with the mods like last time. We can hold off a bit for vdogmr no problem.
Cool, honestly I'm not sure myself how to set the mutation up. vdogmr does it for me. :)
There is a mutation game mode and you select which one you want. Then "games with friends" and advanced and there we are. Not too bad, but I will admit that Left 4 Dead isn't the most intuitive UI Valve shipped.
And this is version 2. I'll be in there in about 10 minutes.
Whew, that was fun! Glad I beat that finally.
Oh and vdogmr25, thanks for the tips, they helped :D
That was ridiculously fun. Sorry about the voice thing. Turns out it's a long-standing bug in Steam or Pulseaudio. Apparently, there's a workaround and I'm going to give that a shot.
Definitely down to do that again whenever.
Totally. If you guys want to setup the next event feel free!
I haven't tried voice in Linux yet, I wonder how it would do... Hmmm.
Well, voice works in the Steam app proper (so far as I can tell), but once you're in L4D2 the mic shuts off completely. I'm going to jump into Awesomenauts and see if the problem is there, too.
You have to press "C" to chat when I am playing L4D2, unsure about other games.
I tested my headset in Linux too, it works well. Totally amazed by how well Linux is progressing. Had to select it out of a list of things, but after finding it in Steam it worked like a charm.
I pressed 'C' a few times last night and the bubble over my character showed I was chatting, but no one heard me. I am still unable to get voice chat to work in L4D2 at all. I'm not the only person having the problem and I've even tried a few things that were suggested on the forums. Still no dice.
It works in the Steam settings but nowhere else seemingly.
If anyone ever has a moment and would be willing to help me test my configuration, please let me know. Want to confirm that it works anywhere but the settings. Voice chat in group or in-game would be preferable.

If you an move this a day earlier to Wed I'm in. Haven't played this one yet!
OK, I moved it to Wed.
Im in, thanks!
Have you got steam voip working?
Yes. The trick was "push button to talk." Forget the button, but I just need to press it in LFD2 for it to all work properly :D
Ahh that was fun. Really enjoyed the gun we started with. Killing the normal zombies with one hit was pretty rad.
That's a fun level and mutation. We just need to survive, :)
Heal up at the end of that level
jdodson: Hah, yeah totally. I got slammed by a tank outside the helecopter. Next time ill heal up a bit more before i sprint for it.

I'm glad you're using that image again :)
Yeah, I had too. Looking forward to Cold Stream, it looks like a fun map.
Would if I could. Also, that picture, as well as the "kidney" shot you had up earlier, are hilarious. :D
If pushing this out an hour makes it better for you let me know.
Welcome vdogmr! Does anyone have a preferred character?
If no one else signs up I may pop in.
I don't really have a character preference.
If everyone is ok with me picking Rochelle ill play her.
I don't think I've ever picked a character, I just have it randomize it for me.
I usually play as Rochelle but it doesn't really matter to me, it's aesthetics anyway. I'll even play as Nick :)
ROCHELLE FIGHT!
Ok, to be fair then ill just take luck of the order. :D
Safe to say vdogmr has had the most L4D experience. :)
That was very fun guys thanks. Ill have to sort out my voice issues.
First time all the way through Cold Stream myself. Have you guys played that one before?
I've played through all of L4D2, but only this map and the mall in L4D2. I'm still kinda new to it.
I didn't quite parse that right I think..
That was awesome. I've played Cold Stream once before. Thought the door in the canal was on the left.
Haahaha, that water was fast. Oh well nothing says "learning" like dying.
Yeah sorry, I've played through all of L4D1. That was the issue
:D
had a blast, thanks guys! next time let's up the difficulty and go with gib fest. :)
Whats gib fest?
M60's with bottomless clip and magnum's (magnum's need reloading) :)
Hey that's cool.
That could be really fun.
Set up a date and time. :)
Anyone can create an event, so go ahead and start one up!
I have been hella busy lately but wouldn't mind joining if I can!
We doing this?
That was fun, I did the last level by myself, I was a few feet from the chopper and we all went down. Fun :)
