The parts where you have to alert the hoard were very interesting indeed XD
the fact that the one man was talkin to bill makes an excellent edition to this campaign. it makes me feel like this map can very well be a part of l4d

the infected spawn were not very well placed... some where but not all. for example. i encountered a witch inside the saferoom, which happened to me 5 times straight.
the finale was too big. making it a little smaller might help people enjoy the ending experience more... i wasted some of my time finding the radio on my first playthrough

very good map. some tweeking may help but its still awesome as is XD

About the same time length as the official maps.

A lot has been fit into just 3 maps.

Some good side room places to explore. Bit of a risk with some of them being far from the normal route through the map.

Good amount of vertical gameplay makes for a more interesting campaign.

Lighting seemed ok to me.

Finale being up high means lots of tank-flying fun.

Texturing was sloppy in some places - i.e. one brush making up walls in adjoining rooms meant that what was the right texture in one room ended up being in the next room, looking quite room, (some of the offices in map 2 spring to mind).

Some weird shading on textures when your flashlight hit them - i.e. the road at the very beginning of the campaign.

The tank sometimes climbed on top of barriers and got stuck between the barrier and the ceiling. Nav file needs adjusting for this.

Unrealistic placement of props - there were a lot, (and by that a mean a HUGE amount), of the big crate props in what I think was a multi-story car park. You would never see one, let along a lot, in a car park. Replace them with vehicles or extra columns instead.

The 2nd map seemed too long to me. Perhaps think of splitting it into 2 maps.

Some of the offices in the 2nd map were quite far from the escape route, but there was nothing in them to reward players who went there looking for stuff. Add some more pipe bombs, molotovs or first aid kits there.

The constant panic events in map 2 were a bit annoying, especiialy since nothing had been done to start the events after the first one.

Need a couple of ammo places in 2nd map. All those panic events meant that ammo ran out quite quickly.

Only allowing 1 T2 weapong to be picked up when they were found goes against L4D standards, so most people playing that would find this confusing or annoying. Switch to either having the weapons like they do in L4D or have more than 1 of the same weapon at one spot, setup just like you have in this map.

Too many hunting rifles and not enough auto shotguns. You need to balance out the amounts of the different weapon types.

In the finale, the radio was very difficult to find, as there was no clear indication on where to find it.

Helipad area was too wasy to defend in the finale. You need to add more ways for the infected to climb up there so people can't defend everywhere at once, or you need to make it more central so infected can spawn all the way around you.

Too many arrows in some places to show you where to go. Try indicating where to go through open or broken down doors or have more lighting in key areas to show where to go and less lighting in side routes.

An OK campaign for a beta. Needs a bit of polishing up and a bit of reworking in some parts to make better.

challenging

in 2nd map ai-bots sometimes get stuck in saferoom

very nice map, which is pretty good playable with bots. 2nd map very challenging. altho the final map is on the other hand way to easy. u can just stand on the other side of the heli platform and the horde comes only from the wooden bridge.

- Custom sounds and music along with the game sounds actually makes L4D creepy.
- Lighting and atmosphere are spot on.
- Fun from start to finish.
- No bugs.

- Red ERROR entities were scattered throughout stage 1 and 2. More in stage 1.( It's possible this is due to my custom tank mod).
- Although I know why you made three stages instead of the traditional five, the map was so well done I wanted more.

Awesome map. I wish it was a full campaign but that's just because it was that good. If I'm not the only one getting red ERRORS then that needs to be fixed. Otherwise, job well done.

High attention to detail.
Nice interaction between radio man and bill.
Creepy noises (can't really explain it :P).
Challenging.
First map is very well balanced.

Pink stuff on the walls in the first map.

The second map had too much special infected and regular infected.
Artillery crescendo event was more like a finale (ex: tanks, and repeating hordes).
Very few rewards for exploring the offices.

Third map puts you on the roof missing out on the rest of the building.
The finale map was too big as time was wasted looking for the radio also why was there a witch in the finale.
It was also too easy compared to the 2nd map.

Short campaign (a fourth map would make it better).

Wow that's a lot of cons... Overall not bad. This is the kind of stuff i can only dream of making. However the 2nd map and the disappointing finale killed the campaign. However the first map was something that was truly amazing. Warn us that the artillery was a finale type of event... had to run my way to the safe house and abandon my friends, because of those dang tanks (died 5 times. Didn't want to start over). Very high quality campaign that would make the folks at valve proud.

love the sound effects gives the game a good feeling,adds to the horror. great job well done.

none

One of the best campaigns iv played yet.

Very well designed

Flows well

Custom sounds enhance the experience

Right levels of light and dark in areas that need it

Could use a bit more supplies (ammo and healing)

I rarely say this, but this is one of the best campaigns I have ever played. I enjoyed it every step of the way and the custom sounds really brought this alive. I would highly recommend this to anyone. My only gripe is the ammo and medical supplies seem a bit too scattered and it would have been a real pain in the ass to start all over again.

- Voice acting!
- Great visuals.
- Good bot navigation.

- Voice acting needs work.
- Too short.

Great map if you wanna play alone, or real quick before school.

It's really, really nice to see a daytime map for a change.
Decent amount of Horde triggers.
Excellent amount of Tanks.
Pretty damn creepy :)

There was a couple sections at the beginning that might slow down someone's computer(mine system lagged a little).

This campaign is pretty creepy, it has all the right balance between areas, decent amount of exploration, and lots of exploration which i find is rewarding. I certainly will be playing this again, and cannot wait for another campaign from RyOK and Noesis Interactive!

EVERYTHING !

- Level Design is Perfect, realistic, ...
- Music fits perfectly to the scene
- Custom dialogues, trigger events, ...
- Dialogue between the 4 survivors and the rescue
- good timing
- Everything fits well together

- One thing : i didn't understand why we had to use the howitzer, but it was a great trigger event anyway :D

With every little detail brought to the perfection, you managed to create a real story and a real atmosphere in your level.
This isn't left 4 dead anymore, it's ... something else.
I've been playing for a while, and the only time i felt like that when playing a map was when i first discoverd l4d.
Gosh sriously, you mate ROCk, this is a pro-level custom map, AWESOME !

This is the map all Zombie movies fan have been waiting for.
The devs of l4d tried to create small stories in the levels (you know, barricades that indicates that somebody has tried to survive there, bodies covered by friends etc...), but you suceeded way better than them !

I stop here otherwis i'm up all night long.
sorry for my bad english, and again, CONGRATULATIONS, you made my day a succes !
<3 !

This map is just plain FUN! I've had such a thrilling time finding the correct paths, and figuring out the choke points. Versus is surprisingly polished and the custom audio, like other's have stated, is funny, well thought out, and totally enhances the experience. The new chopper pilot was hilarious!

I've played through the map a few times and I love how much the designer used the space. The actual area of the entire campaign map is small, but the level design is superb in that you nearly backtrack, and think to yourself, "Damn it, I've played this much and only made it this far...which only keeps me wanting more. Great stuff!

Can't wait for more maps.

One of, if not the best custom campaigns I've played. Well done. I could see this blowing up...the options for versus are limitless!

Excellent mapping.

Custom recorded audio dialogue is well done and pretty funny.

Challenging course and design.

Loaded with diverse and decorative environments.

Well placed and balanced weapons, ammo and pipebombs/malotovs through all 3 maps.

Excellent ending with a "reasonable" amount of hordes, tanks, etc.

Needs a few more maps. Maybe...

One of the best created campaigns out there. Aside from it being only 3 maps, it doesn't let up and is a true challenge all the way to the insane ending.

- 3 awesome maps
- Awesome graffics
- Love the graffity and humour

- Maybe a bit difficult
- Begining with just gun is annoying
- Last map isn't that big
- hey guy, when making func_wall or func_brush don't forget to make NODRAW in the side of your far forest, and to resize the bloc about 1/2 pixels !!! Or it will make some awfull lines on the top (I've seen that on the last map especially). This is because the texture repeats. Think about it next time ;)

Very cool map. You REALLY make me think about making some map for Source. Awesome job man !!


EDIT :

oops, It was the BETA3 that I play. I guess it just had minor change, but i'll test the daytime too then ;).

+ Excellent level design & attention to detail

+ Excellent use of custom music, atmosphere & "flavor text"

+ Great use of crescendo moments

+ Good pacing & item distribution

- Final in-game rescue cut scene could have been better

- I can't shoot through razor wire...?

My brother and I had a blast playing through this campaign. Very high quality with custom music, loading screen poster, graffiti, weather effects, new recorded voice acting, great level design and so much more. This could easily pass as official content.

My gripes are few and really just nit-picks: I was frustrated that I couldn't shoot at infected through some razor wire strung across the top of some cubicles, and I thought that the camera and lighting could have been better for the final rescue in-game cut scene.

I heard some people encountered a few bugs; the only one I experienced after playing through once was a graphic error on returning to the lobby after completing the campaign.

-Short and fun if ur playing single player
-Good balance of witches and tanks
-Convenientley placed ammo deposits/medkits/weapons
-well designed

-Was able to jump over a fence, Couldn't get back over.
-not to much sound (i think this was from the passing)

This was a very fun map, although short it kept me preoccupied for a good 35 minutes. You should probably fix the fence bug. Thats about it! good job buddy.

+ your own radio messages and wall grafitti certintly added to the atmosphere. I felt sad at kevin...

+ the creepy music adds much to creep me out.

+ Very good detail

+ the end cimanatic is one of the best ive ever seen.

+Ocasional glitches and the like plague this ma

A very good campaigen that makes me want to play it again and again. make some more maps like this!

Custom sounds and music create a terror atmosphere
Too much detailed
Nice weapons placement, it does you to search for it

Too short

I played with L4D2 and addon support installed, more extra L4D1 assets. I didn't see any missing texture error. One problem was survivor respawn in first map, several times two of them appear below the map. Other problem was in finale, survivors stay out of chopper after it flies out. But these maybe don't happen in L4D1.

First map is too easy and short. Only threat is a Tank that appears in a corridor with a broke fork-lift. Custom texts fonts on wall are too perfect for a survivor to write that by hand, use script fonts instead.

Great pacing.

High detail

Few map errors

The elevator safe house caused the bots to SPAZ-OUT

The Finale was a bit confusing, the radio had to be hunted down.

The level of detail on this map is, in my opinion, rarely achieved by the average mapper, Good Work. Only complaints are stated above.

-well designed
-good lighting

-so many bug
--------------------------------------

unplayable

-----------------------

CAUTION: The following review contains spoilers...
- Level of Detail
- Size of the maps
- Difficulty (Mostly)

- Confusing as all hell: Many times found myself with no idea where to go. The failry-ambiguous voice parts often were drowned out, so there was no way to know how to proceed
- Poor user notification: Some voice sections start in the middle of action (top of the stairs by the artillery). Good luck hearing a conversation when people are shooting a witch; At other points, there is no notification of how to proceed.
- A few "impossible" crescendos: Author would spam tanks (infinite spawn?). Sometimes we would have two, minimum, pounding the party at once
- VERY buggy at times. Maybe this was just my game instance. Seemed to clear up after restarting L4D.

Spent a half-hour wandering back through the first part of the level because we ran into confusion in the court yard. Spent an hour and a half trying to figure out how to proceed in the court yard (How do we shoot the fence? It didn't work the last 3 times!) while being massacred by tanks.

All-in-all, it's a pretty good campaign. Playing with four friends would be much easier than with one-friend/two bots. My main complaint is that there are not enough notifications / directions for the players, and those that are there are of poor quality. It left us very confused and frustrated at times.

-Very Creepy music and sound cues (The random distant "sound" at one point in the first map sent shivers down my spine)
-great detail and layout of the maps. Not too confusing but not too easy either
-radio bit on second map was amusing

-lacks creepiness in the finale
-voice acting on radio when summoning rescue was really bad. (at least in my opinion)

One of the best custom campaigns I've played. I hope to see more. A few more creepy sound effects would be nice though. [like that random laughing you sometimes here in the hotel (?) on dead air.]
