New player
Hi, I just got the game....should I play single player, campaign, or any other mode first? Which one is the most fun to do before playing with other people....kind of like how you play single player first in most games, should I do the same with L4D2?

Welcome to L4D2, 88MIKE! :handprintright:

I personally started off with single player and ran through all the campaigns from start to finish, chronologically. This is to:

1. Orient yourself with the story, settings, and characters.
2. Get (a little) used to the game's controls and mechanics.
3. Give yourself room to make and learn from mistakes (not that you'll be perfect later on).

Jumping into multiplayer right off the bat will mostly likely leave you bewildered as you'll most likely be thrown into the middle of a game. If you decide to do so, here is my advice:

1. Start off on Easy or Normal. Seriously.
2. Make a lobby yourself and don't jump into a campaign unless you've already played it before, start to end.
3. Listen to the more experienced players and stick with the team. If you don't, you might find yourself literally left for dead, at the receiving end of emotional abuse, or kicked.
4. Avoid Versus and Scavenge until you feel confident or obtain a thick enough skin.

That's it. The most important thing is to have fun. Enjoy!

If you need someone to help or walk with you through some campaigns so you won't be lonely while learning, feel free to add me. :health:

1st) Welcome to Left 4 Dead 2 you find the game to be quite enjoyable if played the right way.

2nd) As a new player coming into this game, you will have to learn game mechanics and controls. I would suggest single player but if you want to play with others, go into Campaign Normal or Easy difficulty to learn the game mechanics, items, weapons, and map layouts. Take note on how special infected attack, that will help you in Versus much later when you are in control of one them, tasked with attacking survivors. Avoid Versus/Scavenge modes for now until you have built enough experience.

Replay the different campaigns with a harder difficulties or try Survival mode. Later, if you want to practice infected, there are Versus Mods like Raymond's and that Anime modded Server (where players only play as special infected only against survivor bots)

WRONG!!!! SO wrong, I could not even tell if that was sarcastic or not. Single player can be useful for those JUST entering the game for the first time. The bots follow you around, protect you and heal you. Allows you to learn the game at Your Own Pace and not have to keep up with others.
Its secondary use is allowing this game to played offline if an internet connection is not available. It prevents the game from being an online only game like TITANFALL.

Go Campaign on Normal, and see if you like it. Once you got good gamesense and know the maps well, you can try and go to versus, but be warned, the community is toxic.

Looks like you already have quite a bit of fps experience, including 147 in-game hours of Counter-Strike Source (versus your 2,876 profile hours ;D ) and a lot of hours on Call of duty / Payday 2 (although not sure how many actual hours you have in those games).

I'd say start out on multiplayer campaign normal, then advanced after you start to get the hang of it. The multiplayer experience is what makes this game so fun so I'd avoid single player, even if you're just starting out.

I recommend playing through the campaigns once on single player so you can get a basic understanding of where to go, and then jumping into campaigns online to get more experience. I wouldn't recommend versus until you have at least 50k hours plus another 25k just to make sure, ok ty.

Single player, it helps you on your feet. You'll get it. Good luck!

If you want to play multiplayer, just go to steam groups and join a SIMICAGE, DLR [SouthEast], or any other modded server, like a 10 v 10. You won't get vote kicked right away. If you need to play with people who aren't dochebags, just add me. :) Good luck! :health:

Yes you should play singleplayer, otherwise lots of people will get mad because you dont know the maps and they will votekick you.

Better to get some experience before going online.

I just want to do my missions

Well with easy mode no one has an excuse to rage so if you want to explore a bit in the maps that's a good way of doing so. If you don't know the map, just let someone else lead.
