"The Passing" has only 3 of the L4D1 survivors?

On the latest episode of Gametrailer TV Chet Faliszek explains to Geoff Kheighly how there will be only three of the original survivors to appear in the new DLC. There will be new, future DLC for the original Left 4 Dead that leads up to the events in "The Passing" that will force one of the survivors to make the ultimate sacrifice for his team.

Why do the L4D1 guys have to die, they were the best characters...

Rochelle should be the one getting killed, that way nothing of value will be lost.

Also, see Aerowyn? They're following through with their promise!

Dear Valve,

Stop trying to inject plot into the L4D games.

Love,
Everyone

P.S. If you could, stop making cast members and go back to the original four.

What's wrong with the new ones? I think they're great.

If Francis dies I will never ever buy l4d2.

All good reasons for Rochelle to be killed instead. Bill/Francis are too badass to actually die and Louis can't die thanks to the power of peelz (and what sevlag said).

Also, I don't mind them putting some plot/story into the L4D games, even if it means one of the best survivors dies. I mean, think about it: we're having discussions on characters we think will die/shouldn't die. It may not have been done through super complex characterization, but we managed to find some personal attachment to at least one of the characters. It may not have been totally necessary, but it makes the game a lot more fun.

Then again, I think we can agree that Rochelle blows because of the lack of character.
