Left 4 Dead 2 haters may have one less thing to complain about. Talking to CVG, Valve's Doug Lombardi had this to say:

We plan to keep supporting Left 4 Dead 1. There will be some announcements coming before summer's out about what's coming there, and then we haven't shown everything that's in Left 4 Dead 2 yet.

He goes on to add:

I think 8, 9 months from now once everything's been out for a while and everyone's had time to see the complete product of Left 4 Dead 2 and see continued support for Left 4 Dead 1, they may sort of see what we were up to and what the method of our madness was there.

If there has ever been a developer who deserves the benefit of the doubt, it would be Valve. Let's just hope they keep to the timetable they have outlined in these statements or the backlash and negativity around the Left 4 Dead 2 announcement will probably continue to escalate.

... I don't care about more L4D content Valve, Just give us Half-life 2 ep 3.
