Today Valve released the online stats for its zombie co-op title Left 4 Dead and to sum things up the numbers are about as pretty as an exploding Boomer.

Only 0.6% of all players have completed the "stomach Upset" achievement, which requires the entire team be untouched by vomit for and entire campaign. Even worse, only 0.4% of teams were able to kill 1,000 Infected with a mounted machine gun, thereby keeping the "Red Mist" challenge out of the hands of 99.4% of players. Sad.

But, in an altruistic twist, fully 72% of players have unlocked the Drag and Drop achievement, which involves rescuing a Survivor from a Smoker's tongue, before he takes damage. Brain Salad, was also on the menu, as 64% of players managed 100 headhshots or more. Solid!

The rest of the numbers are pretty bleak though. So, what is it? Is Left 4 Dead simply dead hard? Or did Valve purposefully place its challenges just out of reach?


I think the achievements are really good! Some of the best around. Some are easy and some are challenging. The Stomach Upset one is probably something people will use as a challenge after beating the game on expert.

The one with the mounted machine gun though, the reason no one has that is because machine guns are a death trap if Smokers are around. I've learned that hard way... :suspicious: Alot! :doh:

I agree, L4D has some of the best thought achievements ive seen in a while, some are easy to get, while others(if you want them) actually require you to actually work for them.

Yep, I reckon these achievements are gonna be pretty hard to get. Especially for me seeing as I'm not prepped for online gaming. Still, Im definitely looking forward to getting this game over the festive season :)
