# AI Director 2.0: Advanced technology dubbed “The AI Director” drove L4D’s unique gameplay – customizing enemy population, effects, and music, based upon the players’ performance. L4D features “The AI Director 2.0” which expands the Director’s ability to customize level layout, world objects, weather, and lighting to reflect different times of day.
# New melee weapons – axe, chainsaw, frying pan, baseball bat – allow you to get up close with the zombies
# Four different survivors. New Story. New dialogue.
# More game. On day one, L4D 2 features more co-operative campaigns, more campaigns and maps for the Versus game modes than L4D 1, plus support for Survival mode out of the box.
# Stats, rankings, and awards system drives collaborative play

Yeah, okay, way too fucking soon for a sequel, but that trailer was awesome sooooooo... fuck.

to be honest i wouldn't buy L4D 2 for full price. i barely played L4D 1 for a week. if it's free or $10, sign me up.

maybe valve would give you lke 20% off if you already own the game. Since its so soon.

I can't access the article from work (blocked). Was there an approximate street date, and was there any word about backward compatibility with maps? With the SDK just having been released, it would be infuriating to know that a lot of time is being spent mapping for a game that's going to be obsolete soon.
