My vote goes for a lightsaber. The sound effects would just make my day. Same with the cracking of the whip, but the lightsaber would just be so much cooler... in a nerdy kind of way...

EDIT: I should have replaced rolling pin with bowling pin... bummer.

Probably a whip or giant wooden spoon, that way someone could re-create the "Knifey Spooney" scene from one of the Simpsons episodes. ;)

How about a some sort of spear, broken street sign pole or sharpened stake? Slow attack speed with no arc, but with a long range and the ability to hit columns of enemies at a time.

Hello everyone. I was inspired by this thread a few months ago and created a lightsaber for Left 4 Dead 2. Check out the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7dvFpY3_sU For more information visit the full topic: http://www.l4dmods.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=4335&p=46276#p46276 My steam id is http://steamcommunity.com/id/unrealed99

Just a fyi this thread is from back in dec 2 2009 the reason it was bumped because the guy who bumped it made a mod with a light saber in it.

A pie baked with acid.

Maybe a basketball so you could say: "watch out for the shack-attack! Lets shoot some hoops with a little bit of base court zombies!!"

A circular blade made from copies of Dead Rising 2

A rattle snake

A verbal attack: Survivors can draw from their grandparents boring stories to encourage the zombies to run away quickly.

Chopsticks covered in wasabi

A comb covered in nits that can be used to make the zombies scratch themselves

A new stealth ability to sneak up behind zombies and tie their laces together.

A high powered propeller hat that when put on a zombies head elevates them into the air and makes their heads spin till they explode.

I'm sorry, but how the f*ck does a lightsaber fit in the L4D2 universe?

It's just a fun mod which shows that custom melee weapons can be used in L4D2. Teletubbies don't fit in the L4D universe but that was a fun mod. Zombies + lightsabers = very satisfying.
