L4D2 and NS2

After winning the tourney at UAH and noticing there was a free week for L4D2 I decided to play some random matches to see how things were after not playing for a year excluding my time in the tourney. There have been no changes to gameplay what so ever and I see people still leave as soon as a match starts to go south for them. I feel like this game really would have benefited from a system that rewards seeing a match to the end and punishes leavers such as League of Legends does. Playing in the L4D2 tourney was the most fun I had playing since the game's release.

Now onto the main attraction.

Natural Selection 2 is a tactical shooter pitting the alien Khara versus the human Frontiersmen. a tactical shooter is one in which one player must sit in the hot seat and command all the other players from a RTS view to give orders and setup buildings to build. This game is interesting due to the fact that it's not just one team with guns vs another team with guns, the Khara must use stealth and deception due to the fact that a majority of their team must fight at melee range with teeth and claws. This post isn't here to describe the gameplay in detail, only to say THIS GAME IS AWESOME AND YOU SHOULD TOTALLY GET IT.

Here's a video.

Of course, most people who are interested in this game would have seen this video by now, hopefully I'll see you in game sometime!
