Engine Branch
The FAQ says "Uses a modified Source engine between the L4D2 and Portal 2 iterations", so we probably need a new page about this specific branch. Left 4 Dead engine branch is more closer than Source 2009, but I think we can be more precise about this. What do you think? --Barracuda 23:02, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
