DLC Packs Hinted at for Left 4 Dead 2?

[Shawn Zipay]

While digging through the pre-loaded files for the Left 4 Dead 2 demo, a member of the Facepunch forums, Jimbomcb, came across something rather peculiar. Something that certainly hints at two possible DLC updates planned for Left 4 Dead 2 already.

// DLC strings:
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredTitle_1" "Miracle Pack"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredKicked_1" "You were kicked from the lobby because downloadable content was selected.\n"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredJoin_1" "Game requires downloadable content provided with Miracle Pack.\n"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredMessage_1" "Please, download Miracle Pack content from Xbox LIVE Marketplace."
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredOffer_1" "Would you like to download Survival Pack 1 content from Xbox LIVE Marketplace now?"
//
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredTitle_2" "Apocalyptic Pack"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredKicked_2" "You were kicked from the lobby because downloadable content was selected.\n"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredJoin_2" "Game requires downloadable content provided with Apocalyptic Pack.\n"
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredMessage_2" "Please, download Apocalyptic Pack content from Xbox LIVE Marketplace."
// "SessionError_DLC_RequiredOffer_2" "Would you like to download Apocalyptic Pack content from Xbox LIVE Marketplace now?"
// End of DLC strings

They also uncovered a potential list of the weapons to be included in the demo and a little something about a [spoileri]rock concert finale[/spoileri]. Nice.

If you look through the l4d2demo folders you see that [spoileri]the Germans are not the only ones getting the CSS weapons[/spoileri].

So there is stuff already set up, but they aren't releasing it so they can charge for it at a later date? nice...

Notice the DLC was talking about Xbox Live. PC is always free. Console, however, is not.

Great, they moved the event an hour away... 2 PM PST it is...
