Left 4 Dead…2?

Se­ri­ously—what the fuck?

De­spite promises to make enough new con­tent to make Left 4 Dead worth the $50 we paid for it, 8 months later it is still with­out con­tent, buggy as hell, full of map ex­ploits, and with ter­ri­ble match­mak­ing. Poor game de­sign has made being on a los­ing team in­cred­i­bly frus­trat­ing, mak­ing it so the only re­ward you get for win­ning is half or more of the other team ruins your game, ei­ther by quit­ting or by child­ishly killing them­selves to ruin your in­fected round— every sin­gle time.

Valve stopped car­ing about Left 4 Dead a while ago, and now we know why—Left 4 Dead 2 is com­ing out with all the con­tent that was promised for the first one. I don't think I'll be giv­ing them any money for this one.
