Too complicated
Almost no Items in the map AND in safe room
Had to restart many times because of places I'd get stuck
Survivors Get stuck in safe rooms
No closets for respawning
Many bugs

All-in-all, this was a poor campaign, no custom content and even obvious things like the safe room door was on backwards. This was really a waste of my time.

Final map AI issues

Ok campaign, one main issue with playing single player is the AI on the final map. They refuse to pick up weapons/health packs at both locations (outside of elevator and in radio room) and get easily killed during the final just using pistols and no health packs. I tested it multiple times and maybe 1 in 3 will take a weapon if they are pushed into them by the horde. I would have rated it higher if not for the AI issue on the final map.

Very awesome map! The levels give a great new look to the l4d2 playground. I enjoyed listening to the army guys audio.

Ending was cool but a little too easy

Great map had tons of fun!

nice map design
fun
well thought out
-you had one bit where the music reminded me of battlestar galactica and i was attacked by a hunter and a horde

-had some issues with shadows flickering in the first stage.
-the safe room at the end of first stage wouldn't end when door was shut and the mic wouldn't let me click it if that was another way to end the stage.
-needs more events to make things tense.
-you had one bit where the music reminded me of battlestar galactica and i was attacked by a hunter and a horde but it only happened once, need more of the music got me pumped.

very good maps with a little work they will be great thanlks for the effort and keep up the good work

In no particular order:

-Real nice use of survivor voice cues (or whatever you call them)

-Nice intro

-Loooooong levels

-2nd chapter as a whole was great

-Funny (albeit lazily made) custom graffiti

-Custom voices

-An actual story

-Good attention to detail

-An overall sense of creativity

-Superb custom music

-A serious case of what I like to call L4D1 syndrome (IE: levels seem repetitive, lots of office buildings streets and generic concrete hallways, and no real interesting setpeice or environments)

-This is a big one, an obscene lack of items throughout, from the player start to the finale there where very few item spawns and most of them where just melee weapons. (Seriously, I didn't find a single shotgun until the second level.)

-A few Nav problem here and there, for example, I startled a witch and my bot friends where trying to shoot her through a truck as I was getting mauled.

-The 3rd level safe house isn't exactly what I would call "safe". It always seems to spawn a hoard in the elevator a few seconds after I leave.

-Because of the lack of items I mentioned the finale was a pain to get through, and the finale area itself kept spawning waves while I was preparing.

-Some of the level design was kind of odd, especially upon exiting the tunnel in the first map.

-The custom voices where too quiet to hear.

Over all, an above average campaign, I suggest next time you try and avoid the L4D1 style repetition, and maybe add some L4D2 features. (IE: Gauntlets, more variety of weapons, more distinct locations) And next time try making a setpeice or two.

One dismembered thumb up. ^^

The custom work is GREAT. The sprays, the voices, everything.
Map design is also good

The finale is a little disappointing, though

I really liked this campaign, and custom work (be it voice acting, graffiti on the walls or whatever) is always good.

1. Polished
2. Good use of custom sounds.
3. Custom sounds don't mess up the other sounds.
4. Good length.

1. Although the campaign is polished, it doesn't have much action.
2. Where's the ammo, pills, and throwables? You spend most of map 1 and some of map 2 with your sidearm and I didn't find anything other than crappy melee weapons and the double pistols. I picked up my first pills on the campaign at the finale.
3. I didn't even realize map 2 had a gauntlet until I crossed the courtyard and got to the other building that you shoot with the cannon. It was a little too easy.
4. I would like to see tier 2 weapons somewhere other than the very end.

Pretty good campaign. I don't mind short campaigns but I think it needs to be pretty action packed in order to make up for the loss in length. If the difficulty were increased along with a genuine reward for searching for items, this could be one of the better L4D2 custom campaigns out there. In general though, the professionalism in this campaign is duly noted.

-Excellent attention to detail present at every single stage of the map.
-Creative events and situations; I loved the artillery gun (You'll see!)
-Exemplary mapping; nothing is left out. This is, without a doubt, equal to the level of quality of Valve's official L4D2 maps.

-One, count it, ONE missing texture.
-Sparse sound glitches with the custom lines.

From the creator of the acclaimed first-place Winter map FREEZER BURN comes the sequel to the finely crafted, polished-to-the-point-of-reflectivity L4D campaign, FORT NOESIS. I had the pleasure of playing through this 3-part campaign with RyOK himself earlier today, and let me tell you, it was a blast. Have fun, players. Odds are, you won't even realize you're playing a custom campaign at all.

Nice background
Liked the pathfinding

Need more weapons !
A bit short

The ammount of ammo was correct, but i've played it several times, and there was always these f***shotguns instead of having any other weapons. There was only some weapons in the last room, but we would have loved finding other ones to change during the game.
I 've put 85 but with 2 more maps and assault weapons it would worth 90

- Very good 'L4D2' adaptation
- Great level design
- Good work with the lights
- Shield is cool!
- Nice final map
- Awesome gameplay action!

- Small lenght
- Shield needs some fixes

One of the best custom campaigns I ever saw. I played both the original 'L4D' version and 'L4D2'-adaptation. Great design, great music, great sounds, events and triggers. Awesome work!
The only problem is it's lenght. It's too short!
Very good campaign, very good. Really!

Best Campaign i have played yet

wish the mg had a horde come though that tiny fence area so i could have alittle fun

can't wait to see more from u

big area
exact replica of NORAD base entrance
New Dialogue
New safe-room ideas
props from left 4 dead 1
interesting storyline
Good place to try to survive a zombie attack
Custom safe-room graffiti

a few leaks in the map as of the 1st if you go into the garage levels
Hardly any of the newer weapons
Way to many zombies on the finale start
sound delays
only 3 maps for such a good idea make it longer if you want that way you can get more events to happen

this is a good map just put a few more left 4 dead 2 items fix the leaks and sound delays and modify the time for each surprise attack i have more pros than cons for this map i recommend you download this

Bright
open areas
custom sounds

possibly not enough weapons/ammo for advanced play

I like how the game is nice and bright in outside areas. Plays well!

-Nice design
-Clean flow
-Overall enjoyable

-Little short; summoned the rescue vehicle without realizing that I was infact already at the finale.
-Lack of weapons

Definately worth getting.

It's an okay campaign.

Needs better details
Poor design layout
Uninspired

Ehh. Didn't have that great time with this campaign.

Lengthy for only having 3 maps
Possibility for exploration
Creative crescendos
Memorable campaign
Good zombie density
A few OH S*** moments

Finale maybe a bit too easy
One or two audio hitches

A stunning map through and through. The environment adds to the atmosphere as you travel from area to area, and the attention to detail is ever-present; nothing seems to be forgotten, although I believe a single texture didn't show up somewhere. The weapons were placed well and consistently, I was not over powered or under powered at any point through the campaign. The crescendos were very creative, and included voice recordings which made the events more clear in purpose. The zombie hordes were not too thick or thin; you still had to stay aware, but you didn't have to carve a bloody path through the infected for every inch of progress. (I'm looking at you, DeadCity) Every level of the campaign was memorable, and the layout was designed in a way that it was linear enough to know where to go, but still allowed exploration. The finale level was interesting, although perhaps my only complaint: it felt a little bit too easy. Could have used more zombies and a few more support items. :) Nonetheless, definitely worth downloading and playing... Again and again and again. You won't be disappointed.

Nice Voice Acting.
Fairly long levels.
Tough.

Too many small crowded areas.
Not enough items.
Little to no ammo in the level.
Tanks spawn in bad areas I.E. ladders in the second map.
In some spots not enough information that your starting a crescendo I.E. the howitzer in the second map.
Confusing at some points.

I played this in single player it was pretty fun but there were a lot of problems I saw like that there were like no items anywhere in the maps I ran out of ammo after fighting the tank right at the start and had no desire to turn back since I got pretty far and hoped for a ammo pile but didn't see any until the the safe house.
After I got to the second map I hoped somewhere along the line I'd find a tier two weapon around the middle of the map since it's only a 3 chapter campaign but I only found a pump shotty and SMG and had a tank attack me in the really tight office area which almost seemed unfair to me but I didn't care about that so much.
Lastly some of the crescendo events aren't clear that they start the horde I shot the howitzer on the second map and never heard any horde music until I started climbing down and got pounded.

Don't get me wrong it's a great campaign but I feel there are some minor problems with it hopefully you'll update this and fix some of the problems.

Keep it up.

- Interesting level design changes that force you to travel new routes

-Structural damage has been added to a lot of the environment. (Watch out for the new three story fall!)

-Extended Map 1. That isn't the first safe room you remember and you can tell because the door is off its hinges!

-Since the maps have changed from the L4D1 version it feels like a second journey through Fort Noesis with a new cast of both survivors and enemies.

-Watch out for the Charger in the Rooftop Finale!

Thanks to Ryan for doing a great job of updating "Fort Noesis" to L4D2. It retains the overall feel of Fort Noesis for L4D1 but also includes some cool changes that make it interesting to play through again. Nice job RyOK, keep up the good work!

very good beginning, flawless gameplay, not to hard or to easy to find your way. "some" original settings, and routes that can make you think.

common ending (with some modifications)
not all weapons available
no shots, no defib
lack of ammo

a really good map. fun to play.

Very fun
challenging
looks awesome
great textures
amazing detail
great mapping skill

Doesn't feel like there is much replay value
some things are too hard to find
floor and sky bugs

Might as well be another official campaign it is so good but lacks the re playability of the officials ones

Video review: youtube

/watch?v=aapIOwbCInQ

Hope this servs the creator and all L4D gamers everywhere =)

*Very atmospheric

*Wonderful Visual Design

*Memorable

* A bit on the short side

Yeah, so it's not the longest L4D2 adventure, but it's a helluva ride!

Beautiful mapping
Forgiving placement of crescendos and gauntlets
Original setting

Difficult to navigate
AI navigation glitches in the finale
Tier 2 weapons earlier would have been nice

Above average campaign. Lots of fun, although very confusing in places. You have the mapping skills it takes to create a great campaign, but you need to put them in the right order. Also, health kits in the elevator safe room would have been appreciated, as well as a little finale difficulty.

-Creepy Atmoshpere
-Challenging
-Good level design
-Solid FPS
-Short but packs a punch

-Finale could have been better
-No Sound for rain in Finale
-No Storm special effects in finale

A great, short, and creepy campaign. This map can be very difficult so be ready for that. The weapons are spread fairly and you better be careful entering EVERY door.

I loved it and will keep this campaign.

- Some New Conversations.
- New Storm Effects (Not Many Though)

- Very Laggy At Points
- Radio Conversations Didn't Work
- No New Weapons Added
- Almost No New Content
- Nav Mesh Didn't Work On The Finale
- Needed A New Rescue Vehicle, Choppers Are Getting Boring
- Music Didn't Work At All

All in all, this has to be one of the single laziest ports of anything I have ever played. I am sorry to say it, because I loved the first one, but this, this was terrible, with even more bugs than the first, nothing new, a very monotonous storyline, various, incredibly annoying things and little improvement over the first.

I am totally sure that the sound issues were in no way related to my computer, or my game, as the other campaigns I played on the same day worked perfectly. With some improvements, and a little more interesting stuff, this could become a great campaign.

I hope that you will take my criticism as a base for some improvements, not as my way of becoming a very unfriendly person, being a mapper myself I know the problems one can encounter.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope to see a new version in the future.

- Love the intro
- Custom stuff: tags, voice
- Exterior scenes are quite special

- Not enough weapons
- Room-Corridor-Room syndrom
- Some environment issues confuse the bots
- No mood, choice of textures questionable

There's a big discrepancy between the very nice exteriors and the boring interiors. The linear path in buildings gets old fast when the zombies keep running at you in a straight line and the special infected have no chance to surprise you. The finale is particularly boring as the zombies just all mass at choke points.
Overall the maps don't have much personality, and the artistic side of it all is questionable (bad texture choices, no lighting work) - to the exception of the opening and the "plaza" bit. The outdoors parts definitely stand out and have the most potential - I'd love to see them expanded.

- Decent intro.
- Complete campaign.
- Custom VO work.
- The outside areas are decently made.

- Weird lighting
- Large open rooms, making no sense.
- Strange, maze like level design making it hard to navigate and become accustomed too.
- Could of used more detail in the indoor areas.
- No hints, whatsoever.
- Barely any supplies, especially at finale.

This campaign is decent. Not something I'd play again, though. Mainly due many design flaws in the interior parts. They make no sense and are just plain square rooms. This was a major gripe. It didn't flow well and my team agreed it felt too "winding", almost as a filler, between the decent intro and the finale.

You do have some skills. I'd like to see you work more on those indoor areas, though. Possibly revamp them? (I know this may be daunting).

One of the better campaigns, I'd like too see more from you.

Good Enviroment sound
Good Maps
Very Detailed

Bad Ways
Weapons needed urgently you can run out of ammo easily
the bots dont respond for help for invisible walls

Good campaign but u need work in the playability XD

-Nice environment, although old.
-Functional Bots, not too many problems (except at the end, they kept losing their balance).
-Custom dialogue and used existing dialogue.
-Custom music, nice effort (although very gloomy and depressing).

-Not enough pistols.
-Chainsaws and Grenade Launchers are absent.
-A little bit more ammo or weapons in between may be necessary.
-A little easy to get lost in the finale.
-Radio is quite far from the starting position in the finale field, no Health Kits near the radio (this is VERY serious when getting ready for the finale).
-Could use some Tier 2 weapons in the second level.
-The cannon event needs tweaking. The explosion on the wall should occur much sooner after firing the cannon (even though it isn't supposed to work), since it actually caught us off guard and incapacitated all of us.

An average campaign. I managed to successfully install this campaign by copying the files from the Left 4 Dead folder (it was installed THERE for some reason) into the Left 4 Dead 2 folder.

Anyhow, a good job, although there still is tweaking to be done. You may want to consider putting arrows guiding where the radio in the finale is, as well as more supplies along the way.

Full campaign.

Really crazy with the HDR and the lighting. It's either pitch black or like a flashlight in my eyes. Honestly it gave me a headache. Saw a great many lighting leaks. One room in particular was really bad. Might want to fix those. Convoluted routing and hints made it a bit of a pain to go through. I'm surpised no one has mentioned it but I get painful fps drops due to lack of optimization and not taking into account what the engine can handle. Or something else i'm not sure.

Meh, overall it was not my cup of tea.
