L4D2 Boycott (NO-L4D2)
Other
The Left 4 Dead 2 Boycott is a group of individuals who have pledged to boycott Valve's upcoming release of Left 4 Dead 2 on November 17th, 2009. We have assembled a manifesto outlining the basic concensus of many members of our community.
WE RECOGNIZE:
-Valve is a company with financial needs and cannot be expected to survive without the release of new games.
-Judgment cannot be passed on the quality of Left 4 Dead 2 until its release.
-Left 4 Dead was, and is, a quality game which deserves the praise of the entire gaming community.
WE ARE COMMITTED:
-To holding Valve to its promise of free, continual updates to Left 4 Dead in order to build and sustain the community.
-To keeping the Left 4 Dead community together in order to improve the quality of online gaming.
-To supporting the model of continual updates Valve has set forth with its staple products like Team Fortress 2.
WE BELIEVE:
-The release of Left 4 Dead 2 as a stand-alone sequel will split the communities and decrease the quality of multiplayer gaming.
-The announced content of Left 4 Dead 2 does not warrant a stand-alone, full-priced sequel and should instead become updates (free or otherwise) for Left 4 Dead.
-Left 4 Dead has not yet received the support and content which Valve has repeatedly stated will be delivered.
-The release of Left 4 Dead 2 will make Left 4 Dead an obsolete purchase and inferior piece of software after only one year since release.
WE REQUEST:
-That Valve honor its commitment to release ongoing periodic content for Left 4 Dead.
-That Left 4 Dead 2 not be released as a stand-alone, full-priced sequel but as either a free update to Left 4 Dead or an expansion with full compatibility with basic Left 4 Dead owners.
-That Left 4 Dead owners be given discounts for Left 4 Dead 2, should it be released as premium content.

Yep, I remember this. We were right too, Valve dropping L4D to move on with releasing the new and shiny sequel that soon, without giving the original game the care and updates they provide to some of their other titles was low.
It's a greedy, non-company now, only jumps on what's new and exciting technologically without caring anything else.
I remember that this group used to be a really big deal over ten years ago. Randomly invited to it on steam every day for months. Everyone was talking about it
Remember when we actually got mad when Valve released too many games in such a short amount of time?
Good times...
...
...Good times...
I can't believe there's that kind of ****** group exists.
YOUR GROUP IS ONE OF THE MOST RETARDED GORUP I'VE EVER SEEN!
YOUR GROUP IS STUPID!
WHY WASTE YOUR TIME ON BOYCOTTING VALVE?
WHY NOT BOYCOTT EA? WITH THE SIMCITY **** UP LAUNCH AND THE DRM! YOU'RE ALL JUST A BUNCH OF RETARDS!
Says the person whose name is "iAmaNoob".
Says the person who likes MLP (this argument alone is enough to point out your retardness)
This group wasn't meant to boycott Valve, but L4D2 for very good reasons, you inbred *******.
This group was created way before EA released simcity.
I'm not even mad that you called me a stupid (With me being in the group you technically call me stupid as well). It's just the idiocy withing your post and you is what annoys me.
homie simcity was first released in 1989
1) Just because my username is iAmaNoob, doesn't mean I am actually a noob. By that logic, if my user name is iFukUrMom, I actually did?
2) There's no prove in liking MLP leads to stupidity.
3) your argument is invalid.
<badluckvalve>releases sequel after a year of first release
Gets boycotted while other companies do the same and don't get boycotted
<badluckvalve/>
lol steam ...
well so much for this... L4D is still the same price on steam as its sequel, and considering the sequel is a newer better version of L4D its split the community unfortunately. I still prefer the first one TBH
