Valve continues to make their case for the quick turnaround on Left 4 Dead 2 , despite fan accusations the developer is abandoning the original Left 4 Dead community too quickly. Their motives will become clearer later this year, promised Valve marketing director Doug Lombardi in an interview with CVG , where he teased a Left 4 Dead downloadable content announcement later this summer.
No details on the content were provided.
"I think 8, 9 months from now," said Lombardi, "once everything's been out for a while and everyone's had time to see the complete product of Left 4 Dead 2 and see continued support for Left 4 Dead 1 , they may sort of see what we were up to and what the method of our madness was there."
I'd say Valve's earned our trust at this point. Let's see how this one plays out.
