Left 4 Dead 2 Update Thoughts

Oh valve, you silly people. I love how they word things.

Dead Center, Hotel: Made dropping between the two top floors much more difficult. 

(Oh, you teases. Now we’re gonna have to figure out how we’re supposed to do it now, which probably won’t take long)

Swamp Fever, The Swamp: Skipping the airplane event should now be much more difficult.

(Again, we’ll figure it out)

Hard Rain, Town Escape: Added props to block access to a table in the restaurant, which was an invincible spot.
