Extract and click them individually and it will install themselves.

Updated version of DeepFreeze:

FYI: The DeepFreeze map in the pack is the older version.

it seems this game doesn't scale according to # of players?

We were able to beat level 2 on normal with 3 people pretty easily, but then I tried yesterday with one of my friends and we had severe trouble with level 3, even after setting the difficulty to easy.

Do you need 3 or 4 people to play, or is there something I'm missing?

Guys, I've learned from experience - link your profiles, works a lot better. Sometimes you just can't find people by search. Especially on accounts which don't have anything money bought on them.

I'm gonna be playing this a lot for the next few days, if not the next few weeks. However my internet is kind of slow, so only add me if you're in the East Asia region. Or post your steam id and I'll add you.

Really want to play this with TL members.

As for skills, I can play any class but I like tech a lot. I've beaten the campaign on easy and normal; I haven't tried hard or insane yet. I would likely be a liability on the latter.

On a side note, is the Join game function from the group buggy for anyone else? 90% of the time it only displays internal ip or a 0.0.x.x ip which you can't join - it will only say server is not responding. Only today did I find a guy whose actual external ip was displayed and I could probably join - if the game was not full, made by this guy called VINCE.

So vince, if you read TL...tell us your secret

If you search from Community then you have to enter in their nickname; if you search from the friends window you can enter in their account name.

so my friends and I tried to do the speed run with only 3 people for 3 hours...and then we finally got our time down to 1:23, and then we realized that no one can die (we had to let the tech die after downloading to data). Guess we'll wait for a 4th.

Anyone here has a solution that works to solve the problem of Alien Swarm (crashing) going back to desktop while it starts up? I tried some googled answers but to no avail so far.

I presume others have had the problem, saw at least one similar question in this thread but couldnt find a helpful reply.
