Questionable I find only the censorship that has happened to the game in Germany. These include:
"Disarming" of the cover, the red seal is huge, also the thumb of the hand is not separated as in the original cover but simply placed behind the hand.
A few incisions in the game. Zombies killed immediately dissolve into thin air, it can be separated no body parts and no blood splashes on the monitor.
Noteworthy, however, is that the blood - flows freely and stick to walls and floors will ... this seemed to those responsible for these Schnippeleien again not to interfere - even in this version.
Apart from the rational point of view (Why must you show blood without end, the above-mentioned rest not?) Come with me, however, to the question: Is it right to install such a thing in a multiplayer game? After all, it offers the player to part some advantages if the ground is not covered with zombies and injected him no blood on the monitor. In hectic battles you a little more clarity gets it were offered to non-German players.
However, it is also quite possible to get even with this version to enjoy the original version. Once you start the game directly from the folder out without activating Steam, so everything is as it should be ... but logically, that will not work in the game online.
All in all, Left 4 Dead is a really good game with a totally new gaming experience and unique team play behavior. Online is a lot of fun guaranteed, which can also be increased even when you have a couple of friends with whom you can play and is therefore not dependent on foreign online gamblers.
