Aleksander's Profile - Custom Maps for Left 4 Dead.

Aleksander Posted 1 year ago

Pros:

- You created a nice environment.
- A lot of safe room traps.
- Nice map transitions.
- 2x special infected.
- Scarce ammo which makes it challenging. (Almost a con)
- 5 maps.

Cons:

- Oh my, I don't know if the director was trolling me but... EVERYTHING triggers a horde to the point that it gets VERY exhaustive instead of fun and challenging. There wasn't even time to appreciate the maps or explore.
- Repetitive environments, specially on map 3 & 4.
- One or two bots always dies at the stairs on final map.(Not your fault though).
- Almost impossible with 2 people and 2 bots on expert.
- Finale color filter was annoying (At least for me).

Conclusion:

Oh man when me and my pal finished this campaign on expert we both closed L4D2 and never played for the rest of the day. Very exhaustive.

But I have to hand it to you this is a very well done campaign in terms of aesthetics.

Pros:

- Nice detail.

- Arby's animations.

- Hi-res Texture.

Cons:

- In my case, sometimes the world model reverts to the vanilla one.

Conclusion:

Now all we need is a skin like this for the silenced smg.

Anyway, good job!

Pros:

- Mouth animations (that's ALWAYS a big bonus for me).

- Good looking model (no weird shader problems).

- That scarf is damn sexy. (it moves lol).

- Zoey's voice fits.

Cons:

- No thumbnails for Lighting.

Conclusion:

Arby... I just... don't know what to think of you anymore, you make perfect re-animations for L4D guns, and now one of the best looking model replacements...

I'm giving you a 100... and I never liked Lighting nor FFXIII.

Pros:

- As always, perfect animations.

- Nice, realistic and well done recoil.

- Draw animation.

Cons:

- None. Zero. Nada.

Conclusion:

I don't know if you changed the autoshotgun reload time because you read my review or it was purely coincidental, but man... I know I said I did not deducted points from that, but I don't think you deserve less than a 100.

Pros:

- The freakin' nostalgia is there.

- Almost exact recreation of kokiri forest and forest temple.

- Kokiri forest looks damn nice.

- Skulltula!

- Challenging (Yeah that's a BIG pro for me).

- Small key implementation.

- Custom made boss for the finale.

- Funny moments.

Cons:

- Infected gets stuck in the ceiling. (-1)

- This is NOT bot friendly. (oh God forbid that falling ceiling room). (-1)

Conclusion:

Hands down, this is the most fun (and memorable moments) I've had in a L4D campaign, maybe I'm biased because TLOZ:OoT was one of my favorite games when I was a teenager.

We need more creative campaigns like this (especially from you NickNak) Implementing new game mechanics. You did an excellent job with this campaign kudos to you.

Pros:

- Excellent shading and light effects.

- Nice environment.

- You pulled of the "small map + fun + difficulty just right" combination flawlessly.

- Slow motion implementation.

- For some reason I love that train.

- L4D1 survivors are a great help.

Cons:

- When slow motion activates when in transition to a new round, it gets stuck in slow motion in the next round.

Conclusion:

Aside from that little bug, I had a lot of fun playing this map, excellent job CW!

Pros:

- Nice optic rail.

- Very detailed textures.

- Weapon position.

- Military design.

Cons:

- The walking animation is kinda choppy.

- No animation when walking backwards.

Conclusion:

Aside from the walking and backwards animation this is a very nicely done mod.

* Is there any way you can release the texture only without the animations? In this case I prefer the default animations.

Pros:

- That GlaDOS model is just kick ass.

- Name change.

- Animations fit in perfectly.

- No weird texture stretches.

- First person arms are just... God given.

- Nice selection of portrait images.

Cons:

- The ONLY con I have is that Chell doesn't have any facial animations. (Doesn't blink or move her mouth)

Conclusion:

Hell I would've give you a 200.

*Suggestion*

Maybe for another future vpk you can import a GlaDOS, P Body and Atlas soundpack and make Chell mute.

Pros:

- I love the map transitions.

- Nice detail.

- Not too long not too short. Perfect length.

- Love that tank skin.

- Awesome finale, one of the best I've played.

Cons:

- Aside from bot navigation issues. None.

Conclusion:

The best campaign in terms of quality and fun. I see no reason not to add this to your list.

Pros:

Large map.

Difficulty option.

Nice soundtrack.

Portal feeling.

Explosions slow-mo effect.

A lot of places to hide or run.

Cons:

I'm getting a lot of framedrops even though my computer is top notch.

Conclusion:

One suggestion is to make the dynamic cover appear when you get close not by pressing a button.

Aside from the framedrops this is a very fun to play and nicely executed map.
