Trivia

 * Strangely enough, it is clearly seen that Coach at 0:48 is wielding a pistol, and the pistol runs out of ammo. By normal in-game standards, this is impossible.
 * It could be that pistols in Left 4 Dead 2 does not have unlimited ammo any more; as Close Combat weapons took it's usefulness when ammo runs out.
 * The sound of the Baseball Bat is taken from another game of Valve, Team Fortress 2.
 * As seen by the banner in the opening scenes of the teaser, the infection seems to have hit during the "Louisiana Fall Festiva".
 * Zombies seem to be able to have missing limbs as seen in the trailer, whereas in Left 4 Dead, they die when their limbs are blown off. This could mean that the virus has begun to strengthen its victims to a degree.
 * One can see what appears to be the Army bombing the infected, and that these are breaking through fenced barriers, implying Valve's statement that New Orleans had been until now relatively safe from the infection.
 * If you watch in the beginning, you can see three F/A-18C Hornets flying over. This indicates that the military may make an active appearance for once in some way.
 * The Infected seem to be smarter and more aware of their surroundings as they seem to take notice to the jets and appear to be running from the explosions.
 * A zombie being shot at exactly 0:40, has similar clothes(Pink jacket) and hair (black, pony tail) of that of Zoey's. This has spread rumours that Zoey and possibly other Survivors will appear some way in Left 4 Dead 2 such as an Easter egg or unlockable costume. This is known to also possibly give a slight hint that Left 4 Dead levels will appear also.
 * As seen in the trailer, the game itself is more gore and bloody than the prequel Left 4 Dead. Infected have actually lot of blood coming out of their mouths.
