Snowstorm Game Event
by Mcrat on Dec.12, 2009, under Killing Floor
Killing Floor
The updates available for Killing Floor include four new maps selected from the Killing Floor Grindhouse Custom Map Making Competition, two guest passes so you can let friends try out Killing Floor, as well as a free completely reworked Mod, Defense Alliance 2.
The four maps are KF-Icebreaker, KF-Departed, KF-Crash, and KF-FilthsCross which is set in an underground tube station and is said to be one of the most challenging maps ever made for Killing Floor.
The all new mod, Defense Alliance 2, features six playable classes – Medic, Mechanic, Rocketeer, Machine Gunner, Sniper and the Rifleman – and pits teams of players against each other in attack/defend scenarios. Players are also able to set up turrets, drop ammo boxes and more to add more depth to the tactical gameplay.
Defence Alliance 2 also has a secondary gameplay mode named Co-op Specimen Survival. In this mode players are set up against waves of specimens and are able to use turrets and mines to help defend their position. However players only have a limited amount of respawns so care must be taken is victory is to be achieved.
The new maps as well as the the new mod Defence Alliance 2 can be discussed on our Killing Floor forums.
Borderlands DLC
by Mcrat on Dec.11, 2009, under Borderlands
Borderlands
The update also includes the highly objected addition of DRM to the game in the form of SecuROM. Listed on the Steam page for the DLC is that the update includes SecuROM and has a 5 machine activation limit.
However on the Gearbox store the DLC is listed as being
limited to 5 concurrent installations. There is a big difference between having a 5 time activation limit and being able to have 5 concurrent installs of the game at one time. At this point in time it’s not clear if the DRM restrictions are the same across all digital delivery services or not.
Feel free to discuss the addition of DRM to Borderlands as well as the recently released DLC, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, on our Borderlands forums.

*necro threading-commence*
Hey Shay, or whomever, I am reinstalling windows for the 342nd time this year, is this latest SP patch all I need, or do I need to install a previous version first? (after of course installing HGL and the official 1.0 patch) -
