Mutations Explained (Coming with The Passing)

[Hectic Glenn]

​

[br]An update on the Left 4 Dead 2 blog explains in a little more detail how the concept of Mutations is going to pan out. In a nutshell they will be week-long runs of new gameplay modes where each week one new Mutation is featured and the previous Mutation retired.

Every Thursday the new in-game blog will let you know of the upcoming Mutation. Once a month we will have a poll to vote on your favorite Mutation. The winning Mutation will return the following week.

Keep an eye on the blog each week for the new mutations, the first of which will be Realism Versus, with 'Chainsaw Massacre' planned later on.

Mutations don't sound that awesome :/

 

[-smash-]

It doesn't sound like a big change, but at least it will add a little more variation.

Sounds good to me ... they're basically just giving us something new and fun to play with any time we want to hop into the game, and then changing it before the novelty wears off. I'd rather they did this then try and introduce a whole new fixed gameplay mode which isn't as good as Campaign and Versus, and therefore receives no play in the long run (like Scavenge and Survival).
