found this thread about it in steam forums http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=747717
Looks like there is no way to add gore to the German bought L4D without mods.
I did some google searches as well and it seems there have been "uncut patches" modders released for other valve games sold in Germany only a matter of time before one gets released for L4D.Sometimes uncut versions leek through by accident, I guess that's how your friend got one.
You might get away with replacing your GCF files with your friends, that should work but make sure you backup your game first!

Unfortunately it may be a little bit too awesome; I've been playing the game all day long. It's now 1:09AM and I have a five page paper to write due at 9AM. Good times. Even with this paper ahead of me, I can say with absolute certainty, it was worth it.

just installing it now after it came in the post, i cant wait!

Goddamn I fucking hate steam... _Every single time_ I boot steam, it wants to update left 4 dead, which takes like 15min. If I close steam right after the update and start it again the update starts as well -_-
Apart from that problem the game rocks and we have so much fun playing it with 4 friends and skype :D; that's if you can find a dedicated server that is not lagging like crazy...

Man, can anyone tell me the trick to beating the tanks at the end of No Mercy on expert? The zombie hordes are really easy if you camp closet next to the weapon rack with auto shotties, but the tanks just f'k things up. so far we just either hit em with the gas tank or a molotov and try to stay alive for half a minute or so till it dies, but we always lose someone in the process.

On expert don't attack tanks just kite them until they die.

the tanks usually attack the guy who's on the minigun

The key to beating tanks is to have someone who is pretty healthy draw the tank. As in at least 50% health... your speed decreases quite a bit any lower than that, and the tank will out run you and you're a sitting duck without teammates stealing agro. If he's on fire and everyone on the team is blasting him, he should go down in around 20-30 seconds without inflicting any damage. Also having a plan on where to run helps a lot, because often times the reason someone dies to the tank is because their back hits a wall.
Also, if anyone wants to add me as a friend, my Steam ID is zer0das. I'm getting kind of tired of random pubbies and their complete inability to not shoot each other. -_-

Do you play expert? I found people who run ahead are the most annoying, infact i warn them on comms if they keep running ahead i'm going to leave them to die. I only play expert though, so dunno what it's like on other settings

He's probably referring to versus. If it is set on normal, which versus is balanced around, then the guy who lags behind is the one who causes everyone else to get ganked repeatedly because they have to run back to save him. It is almost always better to practically sprint through the level than it is to wait around, because all the boss zombies spawn so quickly.
Edit: For example, I just played the hospital level on versus on the way up to the rough. We had a tank in the relatively open area near the third stairwell. We killed it with a lot of struggle, but two morons kept heading backwards for zero reason as far as I could tell. We got ganked by like 10 hunters and smokers in that time, I ran out of ammo defending them all (yeah, I used 100 shells protecting them or so -_______-) and they were STILL dawdling despite me yelling to hurry up. Ugh. Usually you can sprint to the elevator and the leader uses like 20-30 shells tops...

Guess that makes sense if he's talking about versus. I've actually only played versus once so far, and it was so laggy . Thank christ friend recently got private server up :D.
Another thing, completed no mercy campaign on expert with two friends other day, only one of us got the achivement. Bit lame , but oh well. Probably play through it again sometime soon anyway , as it's awesome fun.

Nebula, was everyone who didn't get the achievement there from the start of the game through it (in the lobby, etc). If not you won't get any achievement.

Yeh, that's the amusing thing, me and my friend pulz were there from very start, no d/cs etc. Friend mitch who got the achivement d/c at one point, came back and still got it :x
Edit: like i said though, not too worried, was fun to play through anyway. Will just probably run through it again when we've done the others.

I just completed No Mercy on expert, with all 4 of us surviving xD
The way we did it was to all camp in the small room to the right of the weapons. 2 guys with auto shotties spam meleeing at the front and 2 M16s at the back, making sure they hit the smokers fast. You'll have: Wave of zombies/specials Tank with specials Wave of zombies/specials Tank with specials Tank, zombies and specials (But the chopper is coming very soon)
So you camp in the small room until the tank comes, at which point you move out of the small room, but stay in the ground floor area where the radio/weapons are. The tank takes ages to get through the windows, so you simply wait for him to come to you then blow his brains out. Then run back into the small room for the next wave.
After the second Tank just LEG IT! You should all save grenades for that part and throw them all whilst running for the chopper. At this bit it is crucial you down the hunters and smokers very fast... and don't stay around long enough for the tank to get you.
It was great when we finally did it

He has to make it into the chopper at the end, maybe that was it. Add me to steam btw, I'm also from the UK. My Steam ID is Gunthorp
Zer0das, I tried to add you but it says it is "unable to find zer0das"
