  • Survival Mode now released!

    Last Stand will truly test your wits and teamwork.

    All new achievements are related to Survival mode.

    I'd like to hear what you guys think about the new mode and map.

    So far, with friends I've only gotten around to surviving 6 minutes on Last Stand. Tanks, Hunters and Smokers come around from all directions, so plenty of coordination is needed if you want to at least make Silver, which is around the 7 minute mark.

    The Left 4 Dead Survival Pack is now available for the PC and Xbox 360, free of charge to all owners of the game. The full change list for the PC release is below. In addition, both the retail and Steam versions of the game (PC and 360) are now available for a special price. Check Steam and local retailers for pricing details.

    This mode looks similar in many ways to the new Zombie mode in COD:WW. It will indeed require learning the maps and decent coordination with your team mates. To react quickly enough, using some sort of voice comms between all players is highly recommended.

      I haven't played last stand but I played a few other maps in survival mode and damn! Stuff is hard. Could only get one silver so far. Will have to try it out with some friends over vent. Hard to coordinate over text lol.

        We were able to get silver pretty easily on almost all of them. If we knew the maps and weren't itching to play the new versus games, I'm sure gold would be within reach. :wee:
