This game, with its director AI, has the possibility for some crazy new levels to be made, and I await them with bated breath. I cannot wait to see what the community does with this game. Though there is one mod that must be done.

Replace either the 4 Survivors or infected with Jeff, Vinny, Brad and Ryan. Voices n' all.

I'm off to patent that idea before it is nicked.

That would be epic.

Someone on the Steam forums recently suggest the idea of creating a dinosaur mod. It's an interesting idea and probably not super difficult to pull off. Replace the Tank with a T-Rex, Raptor with the Hunter and then just crazy weak dinosaurs for the mob. Keep the core gameplay the same, just new maps, models and various tweaks.

Oh, and check this out! This has been around for quite a while, but I thought I'd post it anyway. Full on Dawn of the Dead (2004):

  



Okay, so mapper/modder Darth_Brush originally was making that map for the HL2 mod "No More Room In Hell". The mod has been in development for over 5 years but (aside from a leaked version) has never seen the light of day. As of right now, it looks like it never will. Much like that mod, this map has been in development for quite a long time. That video was originally posted on February 9th, 2007 and a lot has changed since then. L4Dmods.com interviewed Darth_Brush about the map earlier this week and also provided some new screenshots. It seems like he's fully dedicated to releasing this for L4D instead of NMRIH. Can't wait to play this!

I'd love to make a mod that would swap in The Fantastic Four for the survivors. I'd get a kick out of that.

Good luck with any voice mods. There are thousands of voice sound files.

I'd love to see some form of Werewolf and Vampire mod that adds these iconic horror creatures into the mix aswell as the Zombies. Or perhaps just have some form of Underworld Movie mod for the game and take out the zombies.

Replace the 4 survivors with skins for Gordon Freeman, Alyx, Barney and Male03 (if you get the last one then a star for you!)

And really there needs to be a mod to add the Lancer from Gears of War into the game. Seriously....chainsaw bayonet assault rifles = best zombie survival weapon!

I want to have a group of 4 zombies with guns replacing the survivors. Zombies killing zombies is what I dream of.

Hrm, ideas, huh?  Well...

I personally would like to see the four survivors replaced by Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and Adams as they fend off the Reds from attacking America after they've been infected by the Black Plague.  Switch everything over to Colonial-based weaponry, like muskets and such.  It would completely eliminate any automatic weapons and focus harder on survival.

If not that, you could always make a mod based on The Washingtonians episode of Masters of Horror.  = D

Hell, even making a mod where you play as members of the Burr conspiracy as they try to fend off the American government from stopping their revolution over America would be pretty rad to me.

I've got a thing for Colonial America, and with the rich history behind the Burr conspiracy (and the fact that my brother, cousin, and friends have basically provided the soundtrack), it would be pretty rad to me.  I was a big fan of the Pirates mod for BF1942, and that worked pretty well for that game.

OOOHHH!!!  NINJAS VS PIRATES!!!

It would be awesome if someone would mod in a competative multiplayer mode where its Survivors vs. Survivors in big levels but the zombies are in there milling about to deal with like in the vanilla game.

I'd like to see an Oil Refinery level. 

BiggerBomb's Fantastic Four idea is hilarious.  I'd much rather see the Avengers, though.  Hulk, Thor, Cap'n America, and Iron Man.  Who wouldn't go for that?

I want to see a new "boss" infected that is essentially Micahel Jackson in thriller...his power is bringing together a shit load of zombies in a uniformed dance line and forcing you to match his dance moves DDR style in order to not spook him and make him angry...if you spook him he will send swarms on zombie chimps at you!

They should do a mod where you fight only using pool cue's and Queen's Don't Stop Me Now plays in the background.

They should add in a new mode that is basically a sped up version where you essentially play "tag" with the zombies while the Benny Hill theme plays in the background.

this should be pretty easy:  replace the zombies with the different headcrab forms.

What I'd really like though is a re-made half-life 2 campaign. Remove all aliens. Then let the AI director come out and play.

And that's the correct answer.

how about the survivors being replaced by Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Chewy and Princess Leia, and the zombies with unarmed stormtroopers.

Replace survivors with Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad, Health Packs with 1-up mushrooms, and Zombies with Goombas.
