Have we talked about Left 4 Dead yet?

And I know it's kind of strange to be complaining about believability in a zombie game but I don't think it's too much to ask for a movie, book or game to have an internally consistent setting.

Anyway, I know that I am complaining a lot in this thread but I think that is because from the little I played this morning the game looks potentially awesome and I would hate for some shitty thing to turn me off it.

Ehh... the zombies in the closet were hiding from the other zombies, and they got infected. Not sure if it is airborne or bite-borne, incubation time, stuff like that would make a difference.

Basically, what is necessary is for the zombies to come from someplace off-screen, so they can throw hundreds at you without them constantly climbing out of the same hole or something (the hole in the floor behind the minigun in no mercy 2 doesn't count, that attached to a previous room). And I am pretty sure it is standard zombie fare for them to be hiding in the one place in the building you haven't cleared.

KvP:
Don't give up just yet, your experiences are clearly anomalous and (hopefully) correctable.

And try to resist picking nits with these things. You know what almost ruined Fallout 3 for me? The fact that bottle caps were currency. Who regulates this currency? How the hell do these things have worth? In a post-apoc setting you'd have to have either commodity- or (more likely) barter-based economics.

But obviously, they include currency because it's that much easier on the player. Nonsensical shit ought to be excusable if it offers a clear advantage over alternatives. Zombies can spawn in rooms they wouldn't be able to get into because it creates suspense for the players.

Grrrr! We have missed our last two game orders at work! Thus no Left 4 Dead for me yet. :(
