They didnt even promise that they would make whole new stuff for l4d e.g. new characters. what they did promises is that would not leave l4d which they ARE doing.

Breaking promises just isn't very nice, Valve. :( I support the boycott, even though I don’t believe it will be that effective. Breaking promises just isn’t very nice, Valve. :(

Now compare that number to that 'large' 18.5k and I think the answer is what Valve thinks of this. Valve already stated they'd continue to release DLC for the first game anyways, and that's fine by me, but then again, why continue to support the predecessor and actually support the split in community between the two games? I'm hoping though that what they said at E3 about bringing the first game (and all of it's past and future updates) along inside of the second game. But then this would only make it more logical to release the sequel as DLC, for a lower price for previous owners of L4D1. But as said in the article, I trust Valve, they make good, long-standing games. How many game downloads and product sales were there?

I think this boycott is pointless and partly because of what you just mentioned right there. Oh absolutely.

ONly the really extreme people will refuse to buy the game. The trouble is with this, most people in the group will still buy L4D2, no matter how much is updated, and how much it costs.
