Best approach for valve would have been to make it into an expansion, and have sell both L4D 1 and 2 in a "complete" pack. Have the expansion sell separately at a decent price for those who already have it. They could make more revenue that way by selling both at the same time to those who have yet to get L4D via a complete L4D pack.

Hmm i guess so. O well guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Ah yes just another thought, this will probably be one of the most pirated games in 2009 if valve doesn't come through properly.

Hmm...well it looks like they changed the zombies as well, they can now have limbs blown off and still come running at you. This would go under collisions (detections and response) for a game engine.

lol red ring of death XD. Rampage got that recently too. Still waiting for the ps3 to be cracked but those bastards made it harder to do so, so won't be getting one for a while looks like it (really wanted it to pway FFXIII) All Hail Final Fantasy Games!!

I never said it was a new engine I just said they changed minor parts of the engine. By the definition of a gaming engine the animations are considered part of the engine as well as the sounds. This is all just speculation, apparently the game is more severely bigger than L4D 1 so they may have had graphic changes and such that we don't know about

The AI director changes the style of gameplay from L4D 1 and yes people will figure out how to deal with them but it is still a change in the engine. AI, sound, scripting, animation (new ragdoll death events). You are still just looking at the 3D graphics point of view. I don't know what the weather changes are but I'm assuming the AI director

We were never promised new weapons or anything of the sort via DLC that is all speculation from the public. For TF2 it is different because they promised new achievements and weapons for all the classes so that does not relate to L4D. Not necessarily the whole engine (it still uses the Source Engine probably), but the small parts of a gaming engine
-
Well for L4D 2 it can't really be DLC because they had changed the engine, but i do agree that it could have been an expansion to decrease the price. But either way, I can assure you that people will still buy it and they'll still make big money off of it; Even if it's not from us pessimists.

Quite surprisingly, Valve has been working on the sequel to Left 4 Dead, the best co-op game of 2008. "Left 4 Dead 2 has been announced at E3, and a trailer for the game has surfaced. It will be released November 17, 2009, just a year after the first game. Gameplay changes include a new focus on melee weapons, especially the iconic anti-zombie
