Valve released a new patch for its Left 4 Dead title. The latest fix crushes a few bugs and several exploits in the Survival mode.
Some of the tweaks and fixes includes as follows:
- Darkened the Lighthouse background movie and increased the contrast with the user interface elements - Chapter selection is now available when creating a Survival lobby - Single player coop now works correctly after playing Survival online - The correct game mode will be set when playing back a demo - Changed holdout server spew to be development only - Stats are no longer updated while viewing a demo - Correctly update the leaderboard based on the player's personal time, not the team best time - Show the player's best time in the scoreboard - Removed Survival exploits from The Terminal, Last Stand, The Crane, The Boathouse and The Warehouse - Fixed tanks sometimes not spawning after 15-20 minutes
Left 4 Dead was developed by Turtle Rock Studios, now owned by Valve. The game uses the Source engine and was released for PC and Xbox 360 in November 2008.
