WHY! *screams* WHY! (SPOILERS - THE PASSING)

[Glerken]

You know...
I heard that if you play the first Left 4 Dead, he comes back to life.

People are making far too big of a deal over this.

 

[Estocavio]

I was hoping Zoey would be savagely murdered.

 

[Contun]

I'm disappointed that Bill is dead, but wasn't it obvious from the beginning that he was the one who was going to sacrifice himself? I also think you and your brother are taking this a bit too seriously, it's just a game. A very, very good game, but just a game.

I don't know about you guys, but did The Passing seem too easy, or was it just me?

 

[Contun]

RIP William "Bill" Overbeck. You will be missed...
[sub]Dusty: WHAT?! Bill dies?!
Smitty: NO! I loved that old bastard!
OX: why couldn't it've been Louis!
Jake: I'll miss him.[/sub]
I agree with Ox

Hehe, I wonder how many people will get this Midnight Riders joke.

I'd say everyone who played L4D2. They're actually a pretty big part of the game dispite knowing very little about them....
Now Valve, when do we actually get to play as the Midnight Riders?

I agree with Ox

Doesn't doing that whole thing with all the characters in your avatar talking get tiring after a while?

 

[Strategia]

The thread title said Spoilers in it.

I don't understand why people are bitching about it.

I'm guessing that they weren't there originally.

It's sad Bill had to go, he was one of my favourite of the first Survivors. Together with Francis. And Zoey. And Louis I guess as well. But not as much as the other three.

 

[YuheJi]

Not too surprising. He was the old, grizzled veteran that would be willing to take one for the team. None of the other characters felt like that.

 

[AceyBear]

FUCK WHY DID I READ THIS?!?!??!?!? DAMN! I SHOULDA NOTED THE SPOILER ALERT! TT^TT

 

[GreatVladmir]

He is a bunch of 0 & 1's

Agreed, but learn code dude nobody programs games in binary anymore...actually I dont think they ever did.

.......*facepalm* oh my god, for a post that is taking the piss, I'm not going to go learn the code they used to make Bill, Bob, Fred whatever the fuck his name is, seriously, that was a waste of a post.

Danpascooch, I'm real, he exsists in a box, in some fantasy realm, he doesn't exsists, therefore, mourning the loss of someone fictional, is irrational, and well, illogical. I wouldn't mourn the loss of say Gordon Freeman, again he is just a bunchof code that exsists only in a computer.

 

[Superior Mind]

Louis: "Oh c'mon, always the black guy who dies."
Zoey: "Oh c'mon, she was the only chick!"
Francis: "Oh c'mon, not the comic relief!"

Bill may have been cool but he was just the old guy.

 

[Harrowdown]

Put in a spoiler warning, asswipe.

Was there really a need to insult him? You could have just said put in a spoiler warning and left out the name calling.

On Topic: It is kinda sad that survivor had to die but at the same time I can understand the reasoning behind it. Mutation is quite fun and interesting game mode. I also love the fallen survivor character that they put in.

I could've, but the intensity of my distaste would've been lost. Failing to convey myself appropriately would be an inefficient use of language! Besides, a large chunk of The Passing's appeal is lost now, just because of a silly bugger who couldn't be bothered to put a spoiler warning. Naturally, i'm annoyed.
