Line 55:
** In short, any four of the nine MAY do.
* [[Disturbed (Music)|David Draiman]], [[Paramore|Hayley Williams]], [[Eminem]] and [[Jack Black]]
* Russia, some time after the first outbreak. [[White Gang -Bangers|Josef, a street punk,]] [[Action Survivor|Boris, a Ukrainian oil executive, Natalya, a jewelery store clerk,]] and [[Retired Badass|Yuri, aging]] [[State Sec|ex-KGB agent.]] They fight their way out of Moscow, through the wilderness and St.Petersburg to reach Archangelsk and escape on a decommissioned submarine with the help of some navy types. Would involve defend-a-moving-vehicle crescendo featuring a new Special Infected: [[Super Speed|The Runner.]] May also involve an end [[Boss Fight]] with a [[Body Horror|hideously mutated]] [[Oh Crap|super-tank]]: [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|The Destroyer.]]
* Vulcan Raven, Sniper Wolf, Revolver Ocelot and Psycho Mantis. The game takes place before they get involved in [[Metal Gear Solid|the whole Shadow Moses mess]]. Alternatively, place the game some forty years into an alternate future and the heroes are the [[Metal Gear Solid 4|B&B Corps]]. The zombies are basically screwed either way.
* Any group that includes [[Memetic Badass|Chicago Ted]].
Line 61:
* [[Profound Moments in Left 4 Dead 2|Aovnick, Archaon, PuppySky, and Djy1991.]]
* [[Let's Play|baldurk, EthanSteele, cKnoor, and Blister.]]
* [[Blood|Caleb, Ophelia, Gabriel, and Ishmael.]] Preferably with Jojo the Idiot Circus Boy replacing one of the Special Infected, and a [[Sawed -Off Shotgun]] in place of the pump shotguns.
* [[Sin City|Marv, Hartigan, Dwight, and Gail]]. The Infected show up in Basin,but they picked the wrong people to fuck with.
* [[Twisted Metal|Calypso, Needles Kane, Krista Sparks, and Carl Roberts]]. The whole thing was Mr. Grim's fault.
Line 67:
* [[Watchmen (Comic Book)|Rorschach]], [[A Series of Unfortunate Events|Violet]], [[Kingdom Hearts|Sora]], [[Devil May Cry (Video Game)|Dante]], and [[Sucker Punch|Babydoll]] for a Left 4 Dead version of [[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]].
* [[Halo 3 ODST|Buck, Dutch, Romeo and Mickey.]] And they thought the Covenant was bad!
* [[Stephen Fry]], [[QI|Alan Davies]], [[Morgan Freeman]] and [[Doctor Who (TV)|the Doctor]]. One of the finales will be [[QI|saying a predictable answer to get the attention of a helicopter]] and one will be [[Doctor Who (TV)|waiting for a severely damaged TARDIS to materialize]].
* [http://theartrix.deviantart.com/art/Friendship-is-Survival-257447332 A no-nonsense librarian who is the team leader (and has special connections), an farm girl from a big family, a fashion designer with a keen eye, a competitive and fast athlete, a confectioner and baker (who can be a bit of a cuckoo), and an animal caretaker who is quicker in healing.] [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|Remind you guys of anything?]] Hey! It isn't any more crazy than all the above guesses, is it? Well, maybe it is, but this is the WMG page. ANYTHING can be put in. <ref>And while it may be six, one could easily remove two so as to make it four. But would one be able to do that?</ref>
* [[Chuggaaconroy]], [[Nintendo Capri Sun]], [[Proton Jon]], and [[Josh Jepson]]. Just because. THERUNAWAYGUYS!
Line 183:
== The AI Director is [[House (TV)|House]] ==
Hence the sadism and love of pills.
* A sadistic and almost divine being only letting you live to see you suffer? [[Doctor Who (TV)/Recap/S32 E4 The Doctors Wife|I know another House like that]].
== The Midnight Riders will be the [[Player Characters]] of Left 4 Dead 3 ==
There's four of them, they're STRONGLY implied to be still alive and therefore immune (graffiti on walls here and there, their conspicuous complete absence in the Concert finale, the tour bus in The Passing), and they already have character designs (banners in Dark Carnival). It would tie in to ''[[Left 4 Dead]] 2'' nicely to put the players in their shoes.
Line 409:
* Then explain the lack of the Deja Vu created by a system change.
== The Last Stand is canon. ==
The northeast safe zone gets overun at some point after Blood Harvest. The survivors make for the coast. In accordance with Left 4 number 2s plot, {{spoiler|The military decides to leave the mainland and continue fighting the infection from the sea.}} They crank up the lighthouse in an attempt to signal one of these boats. [[Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies]].
* Can't be. Valve recently announced a DLC campaign where you meet the original survivors as the new survivors.
** Who says that The Passing (which is set between Dead Center and Dark Carnival in the ''[[Left 4 Dead]] 2'' timeline) isn't set before The Last Stand? ("Hey, guys, thanks for your help! Now let's get to that lighthouse...")
Line 495:
== The infection all started with high fructose corn syrup. ==
Note: This isn't mine. This is off of a guy on the Steam forums.
Let's say the infectious agent for the Zombie Plague is not rabies but in actuality a prion as that found in [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Bovine_spongiform_encephalopathy:Bovine spongiform encephalopathy|here]].
 
An all this trouble could have started over 10 years ago. A chemical company tests a new pesticide on corn. It passes FDA and EPA regulations. In 1992 it goes into limited use in the States then mainstream in 1998. After time the pesticide cuases celuar damage to the corn that is undetectable through general testing. Most quality testing on food products is for specific bacterial contamination, and the pesticide would be specically tested. But unless you knew exactly what you were looking for a Mass-Spec would be the only means of detecting this pesticide/corn contamination.)
Line 586:
Still a little on the fences about Jockey, Charger, and Witch, although maybe the Jockeys are schizos on Medication on anti-depressants. Witches may also be on anti-depressants.
* I like this theory. Maybe the Witches are caused by excessive hormones instead of drugs?
** Oh, please. Witches were ''obviously'' infected during [[No Periods, Period|that special time]]. It's why they crave sweets.
 
* Jockeys, due to their kinda hyper-active tendencies, could be addicted to caffeine pills or energy drinks. Maybe the Charger used some injection drug and his ugeass arm is due to contaminated needles.
Line 870:
They'll run into the ''[[Left 4 Dead]] 2'' crew (minus Rochelle) on their trek to safety, and there'll be DLC where they have to, with Francis, hold off an infinite horde while Zoey takes the still-crippled Louis up an elevator, and then escape while Francis stays behind to ensure their safety. This trend continues over the series until the first four groups only have one member, and they team up to cleanse the plague once and for all. (That would require a lot of games, though.)
 
== The board game [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemic_%28board_game%29:Pandemic chr(28)board gamechr(29)|Pandemic]] is an alternate continuity of Left 4 Dead. ==
As the mutant rabies strain spread beyond America, and as CEDA continued to fail to contain it, the American government disbanded the branch and returned emergency powers to FEMA and research authority to the CDC. As America continued to struggle against the disease variant strains appeared in other countries, which were rapidly overrun. As the game opens, the CDC has identified four main strains that need to be cured.
