The Counter-Strike weapons were previously available to German players as a bonus compensation for the censorship. Before 2020, you could still use them in any version when playing with German players. They were never meant to be placeholders.
@@erasedxbl8281 german versions received those special weapons because the gore of l4d2 was turned off by default in l4d2, like no guts flying everywhere or brain showing, stuff like that. i'm pretty sure it was for germany and australia
I mean you have part of the info but Germany wasn’t the only one to get the other weapons. before NA Japan also had them on their arcade version. Funny considering their past that Germany has the issues with “graphic violence”
the simple tone heard is a ui sound for the menu, you can faintly hear it whenever you start a vote in a multiplayer session. gift drop and gift pickup were sounds used in the 2011 christmas event where special infected in versus would drop gifts.
i swear i remember hearing the screamer was cut from l4d1 because valve found it was too confusing for newer players, whereas other infected testers understood pretty quick. the screamer's voicelines were repurposed to the hunter
The Screamer was cut from both Left 4 Dead 1 & 2. The Screamer got further into development in L4D2 as Nick has a voiceline I've heard saying "We got a Screamer". Very similar to the "We got a Boomer" line he says. I scoured the interwebs looking for the voiceline again for this video, but I couldn't find it. I heard it years ago, although I'm not sure if it was a real voiceline or a mod made by someone.
@@HackingIsFreedom I think it was likely a mod, likely either clip mashing or a very good voice impression. Screamer was only developed in the first game before getting cut and having most if not all elements of his design repurposed elsewhere. Spiritually, the screamer still lives on
The screamer was cut because his main mechanic was to run away from the survivors and then scream, thus attracting hordes. He was later repurposed as the boomer
@@HackingIsFreedom no???? screamer was a special infected cut VERY EARLY into l4d1, you cant even see him in old l4d1 footage, he was neve supposted to be in l4d2, you prob heard a ai voice line
@Shadow-jm9ei This was way before AI voicing lol. The clip I saw was on RUclips, not sure where it may have been before that. It was about a 26 - 32 second clip.
Some notes since i really love l4d: 1. Left 4 Dead Zero isnt a leak, it was a project aimed at restoring old L4D stuff (mostly the old builds from 2006 to 2008. You showed stuff that was in the mega files, uploaded after the project was cancelled. 2. I can see you played a bit of the mod L4D2 Beta Pack, aimed at remaking the e3 2009 demo, its still getting updated but mostly its 100% the same as the e3 demo. Tho im confused at the l4d2 pistol icons and the ak 47 showing up there, as that was changed in the pack. Also the Charger didnt only have animations changes, he worked completetly different. 3. Weapons animations are just the l4d1 animations, nothing interesting. 4. Survivors have more cut voice lines than you showed, like Ellis doesnt have only 1 cut voice line. 5. that first sound you showed is in the game, when someone starts a votation. the other ones are pretty much cs left over sounds, since l4d was originally a cs:s mod. The other one is a achievement sound. 6. Yes, melee weapons were supposted to break, but were changed very early, as the first time l4d2 was shown,they didnt break. 7. no mercy pilot ending voice lines were cut since it made players feel bad even after winning the campaign. 8. first whitaker line is in the game, the other ones are a mix of if you and your team is dying, happens sometimes or actually cut voice lines. 9. the survivors e3 skins are pretty close, but they are not 100% accurate as the person who give us those skins (yes i do help with the beta pack) did some unnecesary changes/mistakes, that will be changed in a future patch. 10. you can see whitaker if you use noclip after he starts to get ready to clean the way. 11. australian bat is a thing since game got censored there just like german.
Actually it’s actually unknown what the AK’s beta animations were or more so it didn’t have any animations when the new L4D2 animations used the L4D1 weapon animations as placeholders, the AK actually had a similar animation to the AK 47 from CSS in which it did have no moving animations and was just static whenever you did move around with the weapon. It was because the AK 47 during the best stage of L4D2 didn’t have any finished animations yet so they created a simple CSS AK placeholder animations for the weapon until the final AK animations were done
Also the L4D1 animations for the AK in the beta pack is just like a “what if” thing cause Valve never did use the L4D1 M16 animations for the weapon, it had that CSS styled placeholder animation instead mentioned above ☝️
Good points, I have 3 more to add as well: 2:18 - These are not different textures, they're just different photoshop layers. The grenade launcher doesn't have any unused skin. 7:23 - Tutorial_standards is actually shipped with the game's authoring tools, and serves to show people how to design different aspects of a campaign. The Dead Air outro card also seems to be the default that is used for maps that don't have one assigned. 13:22 - Gift_drop and Gift_pickup play for the literal gift boxes dropped by Special Infected throughout December every year, for the VALVE GIFT GRAB achievement.
The Pipe Bomb was originally supposed to be just a normal m26 grenade that you'll just throw to the zombies during the l4d beta stage, so i guess that explains why there's a grenade icon
Also: "Sacrifice yourselves if you have to, the cola is THAT important!" "Ah hell, I regret this agreement already. What a waste of guns..." "Just a six-pack? I'll blow through that in a day... Ah hell.. Deal's a deal... Here you go." "Cola and nuts is a weakness of mine. Though I do not love it so much as I'd be fool enough dying attempting to procure it."
A neat detail I'm sure not a lot of people have noticed, both with the cut bridge dialogue you played and what we got in the final version of the game, is how the chopper pilot inquires about seeing "flashes" on the west bank, referring to the muzzle flash of the survivors weapons, and the reason this dialogue is interesting is because it sheds light on the fact that The Parish was originally supposed to take place at night, but was later changed to be a day time campaign. This detail also makes other parts of The Parish make more sense, like Ellis' comment hoping to not see ghosts in the cemetery. Also that tone sound you're unsure of plays when someone prompts a vote, that being to change the campaign, difficulty, or to kick someone.
not only that, it originally started out as DLC before being expanded to a full sequel so it extra makes sense that L4D1 stuff is present. he’d shit his pants if he saw how much GTA3 stuff exists in Vice City, San Andreas, Manhunt, etc 😂
Remember that L4D2 didn't start from scratch. It was an evolution of L4D1. Some things were added, some things were deleted, but some stuff may be left over. Same with L4D1, it was originally Counter Strike Source, so some counter strike assets were likely used as placeholder during development.
I'm absolutely shocked that you didn't recognize these tones : 13:23 This is used when a player calles a vote (eg : votekick, changelevel... ) 13:27 gift_drop and gift_pickup play when a player kills a Special Infected during 11th of December of every year, a gift is dropped and the player can collect three of them for the achievement called "Valve Gift Grab 2011 - L4D2", this isn't unique to Left 4 Dead 2 it is also a thing in CS Source and Left 4 Dead 1 13:48 This is a sound originally from Left 4 Dead 1 but it is also in L4D2 it plays right after closing the saferoom in the Left 4 Dead 1 Campaigns 14:08 This also plays when a player receives fall damage (First sound only) 14:46 I think you mispronounced "Cold Stream" but yeah that intro theme sounds very similar to the Death Toll campaign intro theme A lot of the unused voicelines you showed are restored after the Last Stand update so this is kinda outdated
Also btw Hacking you actually got the unused Midnight Riders tour bus ending right but for the wrong campaign XD It was actually a unused ending idea for a early version of Dark Carnival where there was supposed to a control room section in the ending concert area with a Hippie trapped inside and basically it’s just a like the Church Guy from Death Toll but instead the Survivors have to do something for him first in the unused ending and the Hippie would actually help the survivors get to a scrapped garage part where the Midnight Riders tour bus would be. I’m kinda guessing they cut this ending out when Valve came up with Swamp Fever and hence they had to change up the ending to the Concert and Helicopter idea. The “Stealing the Midnight Riders tour bus” was actually the second ending concept they made for Dark Carnival which in first concept idea for a ending Valve actually had the idea for Train escape ending for the campaign before the Tour bus and Helicopter ending ideas, Valve scrapped it because it didn’t really make much sense for a Train to be right next to a Carnival
The unused early hud icons like the Gravestone and Zombie headshot icons where actually once part of a scrapped kill announcement system that similar to how it appears in both the Counter Strike Source and Gmod, there is actually footage of it working too on RUclips somewhere
@@FreneticPotato True, the kill announcement system works perfectly in CSS and Gmod but definitely not in a game such as L4D. Also plus it would’ve been really annoying and so unnecessary to have it anyways if it did make it into the final game cause there’s no scoring system at all in leftover dead anyways so it was pretty much pointless 😂
11:50 seems to also indicate that they were going to meet someone completely different, too. 'Hippy' doesn't match Louis, Zoey or Francis at all and by the way it sounds, there was a 'promise' in exchange for access to the garage, just get something for this hippy. Maybe this hippy was the Midnight Rider's driver/roadie? Considering there are fallen survivors all over the campaign, I'd bet it'd be the place the Midnight Riders went to after the carnival. Would also explain why you can see the Midnight Rider's tour bus drive by the bar in a rare chance before you reach the Dark Carnival campaign.
Finally another youtuber that goes in depth about unused and scrapped content any kind of games. Can't wait to see what games you will cover. (looking at Super Mario 64 would be fantastic)
In the Russian translation of the btw, these Whitaker phrases are voiced and phrases like I won’t help you, etc. are used. phrases about tanks are also used in the remix version of the dark carnival; phrases about tanks from Bill can also be heard, but in the update trailer the last frontier
13:24 This sound is actually used when a vote is started. I don't know if it's different on the console version, but on PC it's used. 13:28 These sounds not only come from TF2, but they WERE used in L4D2 during the Valve Gift Grab of 2011. Basically during the event, in versus mode, special infected would sometimes drop presents and picking them up would contribute to an achievement. You can still grab these presents now days doing a specific set of actions, so I can't really tell if they are considerable unused or not. 20:31 Yeah on PC is basically the same thing. The community kinda got a bit softer after 2020, but it's still pretty toxic and tryhard lmao.
13:19 Some of these sounds are from Team Fortress 2 like the gifts and Pickup_misc42 possibly from Mann Vs Machine or that one moon map on tf2 with the robots.
i think the riot shield is the only melee that has durability system and can be use to protect from charger's charge attack and tank's fist or throwing rocks
Honestly props to this video dude. Showed some stuff not a lot of youtuber's have covered. Its not just beta facts everyone knows at this point. Hats off to showing some unique stuff!
Theres actually a zombie called "Leaker" in the code that you can summon in game He's basically have a boomer texture but he have more health and explode when he comes your near. When he explodes he leaves a little fire behind that gives some much damage
Sadly the "Leaker" has never existed in the game. It was pretty much a community made legend. Here's a statement by one of Left 4 Dead's developers. ruclips.net/video/UbOMa_cPbZ0/видео.htmlsi=6HPRUmWq_8tOlY_I
Can be spawned through console. Objectively existent. Objectively intended at one specific point in time. Period We are capable to understand this i'm pretty sure
4:25 it's not laziness, it's a common pratice for developers to test mechanics and code through placeholders, when making a sequel they use the previous game assets until the art department makes the final art.
@nothihn1180 I meant laziness as in most of the time the previous games' leftovers are usually cleaned up before release. The sheer amount of leftovers seems lazy, as not all games have leftovers from their previous titles.
4:17 Wrong. The headshot one is obviously when zombies where headshotted, the tombstone was a zombie killed singer as L4D2 was gonna get a more competitive side, there being points, and the unused grenade isnt just something useless, they did plan to add a 'nade to L4D1, but the hud icon was ported to L4D2 for some reason. The "unused" note is always used when calling votes, the rest of the sounds are never heard inside HL2, theyre actually to be more from tf2 (obviously except for the charging station, and airboat), the fire axe breaking IS used, its heard when falling onto the floor.
chel and ellis dont have sweaters tied around their waste, their pants are jumpsuits and the part tied on their waist is just the upper half of the jumpsuit
Honestly i love those older animations on the guns way better seems like there's actually kick to the guns rather than the final design guns i like seeing the sway to them edit: i love the auto shotgun pickups
during a xbox campaign run on dark carnival 1, in the motel pool, my friend discovered the combat knife, from what I remember I don't believe there was a German player, however it was a while agom
They cut the screamer due to people finding it too annoying during early play tests. Rightfully so. It’s rather annoying in Dying Light as well & quite useless for those who know how to handle themselves.
Yes they are. With him saying how many hours he has I'm actually surprised at how little he didn't know. I've got just under 1000 and could point out probably 30% of this videos being flawed
Remember what I said in the beginning of the video, I'm a console player. None of the "gift" sounds appear there, so I had no idea what they were for lol.
@@HackingIsFreedom na you don't play on console you just copied a script and played this vid off as your own work cos you're too lazy to come up with original content. Even if you are a console player there's no way in the last 15 years of the game being out that you'd get so much common knowledge of the game wrong.
@@HackingIsFreedom yep typical response by someone with low intelligence and no real connections or interest in the left for dead community. I know full well you've copied this script from the cutting room floor wiki. You've done the bare basic research for the vid. It's more or less clickbait. A lot of what you talk about is either not cut or made up like the screamer being linked to l4d2.
I doubt valve "lazily copied over code" from left 4 dead 1. As according to valve the reason for creating left 4 dead 2 was that the code for left 4 dead 1 was too buggy and messy to build on to.
4:45 "They cut it for whatever reason" they literally explain why in the developer commentary...... are you doing your research, or are you just reading the Cutting Room Floor page for easy views? 😐
@StrangeCorvus I know the explanation, but frankly it doesn't make a lot of sense. A lot more people believe it was removed because of player feedback and "being too difficult to track down". So that's why I said that. 🤦♂️
I actually have the original lfd1+2 demos on my old Xbox 360 and those have tons of differences, I don’t think it was E3 time as it is a lot more towards lfd2 rather than still using lfd1 animations Very cool to explore it, I think its levels 1+2 of the parish and that’s it
the only differences were some missing weapons in L4D2. the no mercy campaign demo was the same as release and the Parish demo is the same (minus the missing weapons)
im not really sure where you got all of these textures from, i mod l4d2 a lot and have gone through the files a lot and havent seen coach and ellis' leftovers, are they from elsewhere or from the xbox physical disc?
the 'simple tone' at 13:22 is for when a vote is started, the gift sound effects are for versus mode (i think only player SI) during Christmas special infected will drop gifts, misc42 is the sound effect for earning an achievement in l4d1 afaik there just isnt a version of that for 2 so maybe they tested it before just giving up or something lol, 'Cold Storage'? there is no campaign with that name.. my only search brings up a custom campaign which shouldnt be in this video if thats the case, ive never seen the map overviews from the end of the video either though i could have just never actually seen where they are in the files.
Great video and much needed entertainment , I would like to ask what you mean about the csgo weapons being glitchy on console, as they not in the Xbox version Also fun note those old weapon animations are the exact same animations from l4d1 For their respective weapons
I play with mods usually, so they spawn everywhere. Even when I'm not using my own, I usually find people in survival modding and the weapons are spawned somewhere in a pile.
Gift Drop and Gift Pickup are Day of Defeat Source left overs. Day of Defeat Source had the "gift grab" event for Christmas. It gave you an achievement for grabbing 3 gifts.

Correct. Also interesting that L4D came about as a Counter Strike mod before being developed into its own game.
Damn that’s crazy, this was on console as well?

I mean you have part of the info but Germany wasn’t the only one to get the other weapons. before NA Japan also had them on their arcade version. Funny considering their past that Germany has the issues with “graphic violence”

i think the riot shield is the only melee that has durability system and can be use to protect from charger's charge attack and tank's fist or throwing rocks
Gift drop and gift pick up are used when tf2 gifts would drop a while back. You'd get an achievement for it, though im not sure if it still happens
The gift sound effects are actually from TF2 and are for the gifts dropped from the specials for the christmas event in 2011
Honestly props to this video dude. Showed some stuff not a lot of youtuber's have covered. Its not just beta facts everyone knows at this point. Hats off to showing some unique stuff!
Theres actually a zombie called "Leaker" in the code that you can summon in game
He's basically have a boomer texture but he have more health and explode when he comes your near. When he explodes he leaves a little fire behind that gives some much damage
Sadly the "Leaker" has never existed in the game. It was pretty much a community made legend. Here's a statement by one of Left 4 Dead's developers. ruclips.net/video/UbOMa_cPbZ0/видео.htmlsi=6HPRUmWq_8tOlY_I
@@HackingIsFreedomexcept it is in the game? can literally be enabled using the console
@@HackingIsFreedom l4d2_leaker_* console variables that manipulates chances for boomers infected to be spawned as leaker, although it's very broken
@xDShot9000 Doesn't exist though. Sounds cool.
Can be spawned through console. Objectively existent. Objectively intended at one specific point in time. Period
We are capable to understand this i'm pretty sure
I find the yellow pain pills very amusing, it has the same energy as purple Francis.
4:25 it's not laziness, it's a common pratice for developers to test mechanics and code through placeholders, when making a sequel they use the previous game assets until the art department makes the final art.
@nothihn1180 I meant laziness as in most of the time the previous games' leftovers are usually cleaned up before release. The sheer amount of leftovers seems lazy, as not all games have leftovers from their previous titles.
@@HackingIsFreedom either way, we're lucky to see them in the final game
13:25 this was mostly used for voting
Edit: 13:51 I believe this plays when you unlock an achievement in left 4 dead 1
4:17
Wrong.
The headshot one is obviously when zombies where headshotted, the tombstone was a zombie killed singer as L4D2 was gonna get a more competitive side, there being points, and the unused grenade isnt just something useless, they did plan to add a 'nade to L4D1, but the hud icon was ported to L4D2 for some reason. The "unused" note is always used when calling votes, the rest of the sounds are never heard inside HL2, theyre actually to be more from tf2 (obviously except for the charging station, and airboat), the fire axe breaking IS used, its heard when falling onto the floor.
Keep it up man! Love these vids
Oh man you should get yourself on the PC version. Its is incredibly worth it. Would love to play it again
Pickup misc 42 is the sound that would play when you get an achievement in the pc version of left 4 dead 1
I suspect the vertical axe swing may be a reference to tf2, since that is the animation for an axe attack in that game.
chel and ellis dont have sweaters tied around their waste, their pants are jumpsuits and the part tied on their waist is just the upper half of the jumpsuit
13:34 that’s just the vote sound and the gift is for the bday presents that drop during xmas when u kill special infected.
the screamer ultimately never made the cut bc play testers complained about the screamer being ahassle to chase after and kill
Honestly i love those older animations on the guns way better seems like there's actually kick to the guns rather than the final design guns i like seeing the sway to them
edit: i love the auto shotgun pickups
pretty sure an xbox 360 copy works still on an xbox one
that’s how I played it the first time.
Whittaker sounds like the same actor that does the Vulture acting from Starcraft.
7:23 if i'm not mistaken this map was used to show off the l4d sdk and teach how it works through valve's developer community website
11:25 you probably heard it if you played dark carnival REMIX
I also remember nick saying "He can't land until we kill this tank" that's weird
during a xbox campaign run on dark carnival 1, in the motel pool, my friend discovered the combat knife, from what I remember I don't believe there was a German player, however it was a while agom
Modding tools can also bring them back in
Just subscribe and I love Learning about cut content in video games also will you do a fallout one and keep them coming as long as you can
the ammo pack would have been so amazing, maybe not a full refill but like 2-3 mags
Ngl ammo packs would be nice to replace medkits sometimes in vs. Would prob need less general ammo though idk
Pickup_misc42 is from l4d1 when you get an achievement ported over, not used 13:45
10:50
It uses the AK's reload because the animations for the M60 are just the AK animations.
Cant believe he said "Ay double U pee" instead of AWP
11:03 you shot the witch and she didn't get startled by it!
He actually missed. Shot right beside her
@@TokinToken Not true. I slowed the video down and you can clearly see he hits her, it leaves a blood stain on her arm.
The sound on 13:24 is from the start of a vote isn t it?
They cut the screamer due to people finding it too annoying during early play tests. Rightfully so.
It’s rather annoying in Dying Light as well & quite useless for those who know how to handle themselves.
5:04 the boomer horde call is the same as the one from l4d1 which had no plans for a screamer, did you mix it up with another sound?
does gift pickup and gift drop are from TF2's Christmas update
I do believe the gift sounds were used during a Christmas event or when the game was free to play for a short time, but I could be wrong
Yes they are. With him saying how many hours he has I'm actually surprised at how little he didn't know. I've got just under 1000 and could point out probably 30% of this videos being flawed
Remember what I said in the beginning of the video, I'm a console player. None of the "gift" sounds appear there, so I had no idea what they were for lol.
@@HackingIsFreedom na you don't play on console you just copied a script and played this vid off as your own work cos you're too lazy to come up with original content. Even if you are a console player there's no way in the last 15 years of the game being out that you'd get so much common knowledge of the game wrong.
@-Kc1937- You definitely have some issues bud, please seek help. Not even worth correcting you 🤣
@@HackingIsFreedom yep typical response by someone with low intelligence and no real connections or interest in the left for dead community. I know full well you've copied this script from the cutting room floor wiki. You've done the bare basic research for the vid. It's more or less clickbait. A lot of what you talk about is either not cut or made up like the screamer being linked to l4d2.
The one on the left of the textures for ellis is actually the one if you use sv command to do a training map
a train map
Fact is the guy with the gun store in the fallen survicor u can see him in the passing he go bit or kilked idk
I swear i heard "just a six pack" a week ago
All of those cut voicelines were added back in Last Stand update
I doubt valve "lazily copied over code" from left 4 dead 1. As according to valve the reason for creating left 4 dead 2 was that the code for left 4 dead 1 was too buggy and messy to build on to.
4:45 "They cut it for whatever reason" they literally explain why in the developer commentary...... are you doing your research, or are you just reading the Cutting Room Floor page for easy views? 😐
@StrangeCorvus I know the explanation, but frankly it doesn't make a lot of sense. A lot more people believe it was removed because of player feedback and "being too difficult to track down". So that's why I said that. 🤦♂️
I actually have the original lfd1+2 demos on my old Xbox 360 and those have tons of differences, I don’t think it was E3 time as it is a lot more towards lfd2 rather than still using lfd1 animations
Very cool to explore it, I think its levels 1+2 of the parish and that’s it
the only differences were some missing weapons in L4D2. the no mercy campaign demo was the same as release and the Parish demo is the same (minus the missing weapons)
lol the gameplay at the very end
13:24 I've heard that sound before, valve uses it for player tutorials and developer commentary nodes
That's what I hear when I get kicked from versus.
Most cut lines were restored thankfully on the TLS update.
Whitakker's face kind of reminds me of the American/German model from Day of Defeat Source
forgot important cut content "dam it " campaign. officially developed by turtle rock studio but never finished.
1:18 I need a mod for replace the vanilla icons for this type of icons
I actually had a glitch where i spawned with the Hunter Claw as Coach a few months ago, i still have the screenshot on my steam surprisingly..
i swear the cold stream soundtrack sounds like "Telltale's The Walking Dead" music
Whats your steam account?
Woah the new cut left 4 dead
2:14 wasn't this one from the l4d1 beta?
why does the helicopter pilot or plane pilot scraped voice line sound like demoman
Do Postal 2 Next
The cold stream audio was used in the beta
im not really sure where you got all of these textures from, i mod l4d2 a lot and have gone through the files a lot and havent seen coach and ellis' leftovers, are they from elsewhere or from the xbox physical disc?
and the knife line for ellis isnt unused
the 'simple tone' at 13:22 is for when a vote is started, the gift sound effects are for versus mode (i think only player SI) during Christmas special infected will drop gifts, misc42 is the sound effect for earning an achievement in l4d1 afaik there just isnt a version of that for 2 so maybe they tested it before just giving up or something lol, 'Cold Storage'? there is no campaign with that name.. my only search brings up a custom campaign which shouldnt be in this video if thats the case, ive never seen the map overviews from the end of the video either though i could have just never actually seen where they are in the files.
12:35 weirdly enough I heard this line in the game before
The PC is the superior l4d2 now
love these videos, could you do a video on doom from 1993?
It wasn't for the passing it was dark something
Did he just say a game from 2009 inspired by a game from 2015😂?
MORE Left 4 Dead CONTENT
13:25 I swear I’ve heard this in game before?
Great video and much needed entertainment
, I would like to ask what you mean about the csgo weapons being glitchy on console, as they not in the Xbox version
Also fun note those old weapon animations are the exact same animations from l4d1 For their respective weapons
I play with mods usually, so they spawn everywhere. Even when I'm not using my own, I usually find people in survival modding and the weapons are spawned somewhere in a pile.
@@HackingIsFreedom that makes more sense thanks, maybe why they be glitchy
Gift Drop and Gift Pickup are Day of Defeat Source left overs. Day of Defeat Source had the "gift grab" event for Christmas. It gave you an achievement for grabbing 3 gifts.
17:59 i think i heard this voice line in the spanish dubbed version of the game
