Same idea as L4D2 ofc, but the fact that some things are missing can change the deal.

- No melee weapon, which means that hordes are MUCH more effective agaisn't survivors, and that the boomer gets even more useful
- The best weapons are the hunting sniper, the M16, and an automatic shotgun, which make it harder for the survivors.
- There is no 1. Spitter (makes it a good thing to hide in small rooms for survivors in all the cases) 2. Charger (much less insta kills possible) 3. Jockey (♥♥♥♥ yeah I hate them)
- Knowing the last 3 infected, being alone as survivor is even more dangerous (hunter is probably the best one to get alone survs, and with the smoker its really easy and it can make quite much damages too. Unlike the jockey who makes less damages, or the charger with whom its much harder to get one single person)
- Some items are missing such as adrenaline, defibs, laser sights or fire ammo.

So in the end L4D1 lowers the tactic possiblities as infected (pretty much always the same idea with these 3 ones) but also makes it more complicated for survivors on many levels, which is a good thing knowing how they're OVER ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ POWERED in L4D2.

Many peaple hate L4D2 and just like L4D1, that's understandable, the first one is fairer in the realtion survivors / infected, but the second one has much more fun items, and much better maps too as for me.

Honestly I consider maps like Hard rain and especially Dark carnival better :D But that's just a matter of taste, and after these 2 ones I'd say that No mercy is the third.

Better maps in L4D2, huh? Tell me just one of them, please. And give me some actual reasons to support your statement.
