The good folks at Valve have released a new update today for Left 4 Dead 2, creating a new Mutation entitled Healing Gnome. As the name would imply, this is a mutation based around the popular garden gnome. It is the only way that you can heal yourself in the game, so you and your teammates will have to pass it around in order to heal up. It sounds like a very interesting experience- give it a try!
Valve is also holding a vote for their next mutation! The options are Bleedout Versus, Healing Gnome, Hunting Party, Lone Gunman, and Taaaaaank! All of these mutations are recycled from previous weeks, so if you liked one a lot and want to see it return, then head over to l4d.com and get your vote cast!

Valve’s latest mutation for Left 4 Dead 2 is one called Bleed Out Versus. It is a mutation that gives the Survivors non permanent health, meaning that your health is constantly dropping! You’re best served just rushing through the maps with this mutation on. It looks like a really hard one. Give it a try!
Next week’s mutation is Healing Gnome. This sounds like an interesting mutation. I expect it to mean that holding a gnome heals you, but I could be wrong. What do you think? Leave your thoughts in the Comments!

Valve has released a new mutation for its popular game, Left 4 Dead 2. This new mutation is called Lone Gunman. The core gameplay basis is that you and a Magnum pistol are versus the infected hordes and Boomers. It seems like a rather challenging mutation, so be sure to check it out!

The good folks over at Valve have released today the first new mutation out since the release of The Sacrifice DLC. The new mutation of the week is one called Hunting Party. As you may have guessed from the name, the mutation centers around you and your teammates versus Hunters, and Hunters only. There are no other special infected to play against, though the common infected are still there for you to shoot. Give it a try! (more…)

This week marks the return of a previous Mutation- Healthpackalypse! This mutation is Versus with no more health packs for the Survivors, essentially making their health a one-way street. If you enjoy a challenge in Versus mode, then this is the mutation for you! You can play the mutation on the MPC server or on the Valve servers of your choice. We hope to see you playing the mutation!
Next week’s mutation is Developer Choice. What will they throw up next, we wonder?
Week 21: Mutations, Comic Books, and Buzzlighthunter?
1So we’ll start off with mutations, this weeks Mutations is another returning mode it was first tried back in week 3 and so once again, we get Follow the Liter, a scavenge based mutation that has only one gas can on the entire map at a time if the tank is destroyed you have to wait for it to re-spawn and so on, as Valve pointed out it will be a low scoring game. Next weeks mutation is another developers choice.

Valve has released an update to the popular game Left 4 Dead 2 today. This update changes the weekly mutation from Gib Fest to Hard Eight. This mutation allows you to fae up to 8 special infected at once instead of the regular 4 at a time. If that wasn’t enough of a challenge, then never fear- their spawning frequency has been increased as well! This means that you must constantly be on your guard. Next week’s mutation is developer choice… we’ll see which mutation makes a return this time!

This week up on the Mutations front, we have a couple fan favorites making a return to the PC and Xbox 360. Due to community feedback, Valve has decided to rerelease Gib Fest for PC and Mac users, which is a mutation that gives you M60 machine guns with unlimited ammunition to blast your way through the hordes of zombies. On the Xbox 360, Chainsaw Massacre is making a return, which is a mutation that allows you to get chainsaws with unlimited fuel. Either platform you use, your screens are going to be filled with blood and guts! (more…)
