Left 4 Dead 360 update stops cheating

A title update for Valve’s Left 4 Dead 360 was released last night that left many wondering exactly what it was supposed to do.

Well, Joystiq got the skinny as Valve told them that “the title update is the client-side fix meant to address the previously mentioned cheating.”

So there you have it. You’ll never prosper, you know.

Where does that screenshot come from? The witch is blonde in the PC version, and Dave Lee Travis isn’t in it either.

Early shots from the original design before or just after Valve bought ‘em. All the characters were slightly different.

For example:

I saw people melee the exploit door, and push forklifts to block doors so survivors could not proceed, and melee spamming is still prevalent.

Really … What did this fix?
