What is everyone's opinion on what the DLC will contain? New weapons, Bosses, Levels? If so, what, where, who?!

Speculate people!

Well, they've mentioned that Dead Air and Death Toll will be opened up for Versus play, so given that they stated that, it doesn't seem like new levels/maps/etc would end up being an option for a bit.  However, it would be the one thing any of us wanted.

New levels ar the most obvious option and i really don't see them adding new weapons.

Of course the ability to play Versus on Dead Air and Death Toll but also, I'm guessing a new movie, some new characters, and a few new weapons.

As Jakob187 mentioned, I think the current weapons are fine the way the are without making changes to the ones currently available or new additions. For me some new scenarios would keep me satisfied. I guess you could use new scenario locations as a way of introducing a new boss zombie variety but even that wouldnt be necessary for my liking.

I honestly don't care at all about DLC at this point.  What I really want is for that Crossroads Shopping Mall from Dawn of the Dead (2004 re-make) to hurry up and be released!

I think there will be zombies

Who is to say that part of this new content package doesn't have any new scenarios?  I mean lack of content is about the only problem many people have with the game and Valve is good with keeping games alive with new updates and such.  We'll all just have to wait and see, but if they charge Xbox 360 users for the ability to play all four scenarios in versus mode, that is simply lame."

I think a level where they're in a prison would be quite cool and creepy.

They have mentioned new "boss" infected and I would like to see some new ones. All I really want is more levels honestly. I don't need more weapons or anything like that...just more levels.

It's not "they", its up to microsoft. So if you get charged money on 360 for any of that, don't blame Valve."

A prison level or some sort of asylum level would be badass!

what if it was zombie dogs or somethin cause in one safe room where it tells u what to do if you think ur infected and it says stay away from people, and someone went and wrote "And Pets"

I hope for all three. Weapons enemies levels. It really is what the game is lacking. It would truly benefit from some new content.

"guns I'd like to see - AK, p90, silenced pistol, deagle, flamethrower (implemented well, maybe a mounted in a new level, or limited ammo/heavy?)

My "theys" all refer to Microsoft and not Valve.  Valve is great about giving out content to players.  Microsoft, on the other hand, wants to get paid for their bandwidth.

Lets just say there will be blood, violence and Gary Busey  will make an appearance.

Things I'd like to see

• New achievements and a player leveling system with unlockable bonuses
• New game mode, survival: Survive as long as you can against an ever-increasingly difficult horde, eventually fight tons of zombie bosses, tanks included.
• New game mode, classic: Survive against classic style zombies, if you are bitten you will turn into a zombie yourself, zombies only die from head shots and are slow, low ammunition and players have to search for weapons rather than find benches.
• New zombie boss: Warlock, can turn a female zombie into a witch and dies, also uses a bite that if hits players gives them a sickness that makes them slow (good counter for runners .

• Zombie control while waiting to spawn as Infected
• Zombie dogs/animals
• New weapons randomly spawning around in levels
• Make bots pick up molotovs/pipebombs and use them if everyone else has them.
• Melee-oriented non-tank boss zombie
• Alternative Tank boss

yeah, I'd say you're pretty alone here for some of that......L4D isn't the kind of game that works well with unlockable weapons or leveling, its just not designed that way, and tacking it on would completely ruin it. the rest is pretty understandable, though not sure about the typical zombie dogs...kinda over it."

New Versus Maps. A New Campaign or two. The Flamethrower that they promised on G4.

I say add a new gamemode. Add some new maps and weapons, and maybe some new bosses...maybe.

I think it will be a completely open city environment  which offers up a full on MMO survival horror experience set in the left for dead world.
P.S I know I'm wrong but wouldn't it be awesome?

"New Versus Maps. A New Campaign or two. The Flamethrower that they promised on G4."

Dead Air and Blood Harvest on versus I believe is really all that's been confirmed. I would like a missile launcher just for the hell of it.

They've said a new scenario(or scenarios) plus Dead Air/Death Toll on Versus now playable, just nothing more specific than that.

Pri-son Le-vel! Pri-son Le-vel!

The ability to play as Chicago Ted.

Also, imagine these levels:

All I need is some more levels + story. I don't think new weapons or enemies would really add anything to the game.

Its lack of "story" is there by design, and for a reason in the way the game is made, it doesn't need more story at all. They give you the information that's there and that's all thats meant to be there. The way the characters are all very charismatic and alive, and the writing on the walls is the way you interpret the story, and how you want to think the zombie apocalypse may have went down. If they suddenly gave a bunch of story to all of it, it would totally ruin the way the game is supposed to be. I mean , its a zombie game, it doesn't really need story in the first place.

Visiting the origin of the infection would be good fun, perhaps a science lab or military bunker with the beta versions of the infected in test tubes and the like.

IMO, I don't think a Flamethrower would be a good idea..Just imagine the friendly-fire factor for that...Unless it's mounted (similar to the Turret gun)..then it'd be awesome. I wouldn't mind another ranged special infected, OR the ablilty to have more than one smoker at a time (but limited to 2..i think 3 smokers would be over kill). I feel they need to work on the whole "can't spawn enemies can see you" thing.. like if i'm behind a bush i should be able to spawn..I was playing the other day and i couldn't spawn behind a truck trailor because my feet were visible..that's just rediculas. I think they should bring new weapons such as the AK, and p-90 but it should vary depending on the map.

I just really hope they don't charge and go the Burnout Paradise route.  Does the game have replayability?  Sure.  But it simply doesn't have enough content.  I got it via Gamefly so I can't complain too much but it's just not worth $60 in its current state.

"SDK"

The ability to play as Chicago Ted.

I hear no zombie is safe from him.

1. Carnival level, with one of the crescendo moments being you have to start the roller coaster, and hold off the horde as it starts up, then ride it to the next area. During the finale, you wait for a chopper to evac you from above ground with a ladder, because there is no helipad. You have to wait for him near the carousel, and when he arrives, you get on.

You think they'll have to charge for it on the 360 version?

If they mentioned zombie animals, maybe they'll have AI controlled dogs? They could be similar to hunter pounces but are just really fast on the ground rather than jumping around.

But honestly, because it is a given we all want versus for the other two maps, if they added a mall/jail/asylum/ scenario that would be awesome.
Also have some more dedicated servers.

"You think they'll have to charge for it on the 360 version?"

Ugghh...
