L4D PC Patch

Lucky owners of left for dead that own it on the PC will be treated to a patch for the zombie holocaust survival fest next week, courtesy of Valve. Unfortunately no word on a patch / update for the 360 version yet.

"For the patching, the real key is to patch more often and not wait for everything to accumulate," Faliszek posted. "Because of a perfect storm of events, this patch got larger than we would have liked and that really snowballed the time it is taking.

"The problem on the PC side was a few large bugs affected other systems that we were going to rewrite on the pc so we ended up waiting to fix a whole class of bugs instead of just individual bugs. The patch should be out this week.

"Sadly Microsoft has nothing to do with the PC patch... that delay is all us," he added. "The PC and 360 will be patched independently not sure where people picked up that exploit/bug fixing was tied together. Only the DLC will be simultaneous."
