Awhile back someone commented about this -- I thought it used to be l4d_demo to download the demo files.
When they were getting ready to release, to avoid confusion, I think they created left4dead and l4d_full -- I think l4d_full is just an alias for left4dead, as the demo is now gone. I think they gave us l4d_full first (it's been too long now haha), so we could pre-load the servers -- when it released they enabled left4dead which gave everything -- I believe they are now the same content. That's my opinion on it -- I haven't spent much time looking into it, though. Doing this from what I remember seeing on the listserv. On Thu, Jan 15, 2009 at 11:16 AM, David A.
