I see what you mean Byte, and your fears could be very real if L4D ends up getting a community full of Halo 2 or CSS types. I'm not to keen on stats, especially the console-esque "Achievements" system. Combine that with a vote-kick system and its very possible to have assholes kicking people for not enough merits, much less too many demerits.

Also, why can't they just add a forgive system for TK's and other demerits? Of course a lot of assholes never forgive for anything, but I think it would be way better than "TK = insta-demerit = you lose"

Online stat systems almost always lead to glitch and gameplay abuse. Just look at BF2.

Well... if it will be that bad and Halo'ish than we could use a code (like the (TT) for team tankers that no-one use this days.. ) to identify eachother- something like ROMP: RO Mature Player ... we'll be like a RO clan- e.g. Z-Brisk [ROMP]

EDIT: didnt know his name was banned too lol

Well, the crazies spread Rage by vomiting blood on people.

I'd agree but for two reasons. One, there's only four people on your team, including yourself. And two, with the level of teamwork required, it would just negate the risk.

2008 some time is what I was told as well. Trust me, the wait will be worth it.

This game is gonna be awesome, and it better support custom models/sounds cuz the default models/sounds are horrible.
Besides from that it looks badass.
