Left 4 Dead receives title update on Xbox 360 [update]

by Alexander Sliwinski { Jan 6th 2009 at 4:26PM }

Left 4 Dead has received an update on Xbox 360, which ... actually, we haven't a clue as to what it did. We've contacted Valve for details regarding the inoculation. Perhaps Valve's statistics have revealed more nasty cheaters that needed to be squished.

Update: Valve has confirmed that the title update is the client-side fix meant to address the previously mentioned cheating. No more system link and user-hosted shenanigans for you!

[Thanks, Rhylin]

I've noticed one thing it did. It makes a noise at you in versus mode when you are a zombie and the message as to why you can't spawn in that particular spot changes.

FoxHoundADAM @ Jan 6th 2009 4:47PM

It's always done that.

FoxHoundADAM @ Jan 6th 2009 4:46PM

I hope the patch prevent those punks from blocking the elevator and manhole covers and by trying they are banned for life.

Hylian7 @ Jan 6th 2009 4:52PM

It didn't, that was the first thing I checked.

If you haven't tried it yet pipe bombs can help move objects that they are trying to block you with. I actually played a round where they kept trying to cheat so none of them were attacking us for the first half of each map, then we would just blow by there shitty barriers anyway so we ended up kicking their lame cheating asses pretty badly. So satisfying.

I should buy this...

Professor Lario @ Jan 6th 2009 5:39PM

Yes you should.

Nick the Hero of Canton @ Jan 6th 2009 7:01PM

Yes I should.

I wish they'd fix the exploits. Like people spawning tons of hunters ¬_¬ Hasn't happened to me much but it's still damn annoying (PC version this is).

wolf4537 @ Jan 6th 2009 4:54PM

I hope this patch adds the Legacy stick layout.

Cj @ Jan 6th 2009 4:55PM

Can we play versus on all the campaigns now??!!?!?

Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Jan 6th 2009 6:45PM

I would love to play as zombie in Single player not only on xlive live.

AwesomeTown @ Jan 6th 2009 6:55PM

I heard the first major update, which they should announce soon, will include that and some new stuff that they haven't said. Also, 360 and PC simultaneously. I'm anxiously waiting.

Rein @ Jan 6th 2009 4:56PM

According to someone on GameFAQs, it removes modded files making infinite molotov rains and other such things (giant players, etc) not work. I'm not sure how credible the guy was, but he said he can't use any of his mods anymore.

Kye says: The cake is a lie! @ Jan 6th 2009 4:57PM

I completely agree with the comment I'm replying to.

Legacy is (to me) far easy to use.

Kye says: The cake is a lie! @ Jan 6th 2009 4:59PM

That was supposed to be a reply to Wolf.

Alex @ Jan 6th 2009 5:41PM

We know, dear.

You can change the "graininess" factor on the game if you run an HDTV. Or as someone on the 360 forums said..."if you're not one of the less fortunate." That's right folks, the government gave me my HDTV; it's not that I worked and saved real hard for it and am responsible with my money.

copa @ Jan 6th 2009 5:21PM

Calm down, Ayn Rand. I'm glad you got your HDTV.

Temidien @ Jan 6th 2009 6:21PM

Same here. My school was fortunate to buy me a 26" LG, 360, PS3, Wii, and about 20 games so far. God, I lvoe being poor XD

The Dark Wayne @ Jan 6th 2009 6:45PM

in the words of Francis; "I hate Ayn Rand"

Courtney @ Jan 6th 2009 8:49PM

Would you kindly keep your comments in the 360 forums?

Temidien @ Jan 6th 2009 6:22PM

^-- pardon my poor grammar, I got lazy typing on my school-paid iphone XDD

Temidien @ Jan 6th 2009 6:22PM

Damn broken comment system!!

Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Jan 6th 2009 6:48PM

To be honest I had enough of them game after playing it for a weekend.Killing zombies in L4D isn't as fun as in Dead Rising.

I blame the level desing Blood Harvest feels a lot like Death Toll and the fact there aren't especial maps for versus mode.Of course that I'm talking about the limited xbox 360 version.
