I am a web applications developer living in Rhode Island. While a life-long gamer, I only recently gained a full appreciation and interest in game development and level design. I hope to learn more and develop my mapping abilities.

  • Pros:

    Nice long maps
    Gorgeous visuals in many areas
    Good difficulty balance
    Good use of uncommon infected
    Good placement/difficulty of crescendos
    Fantastic finale
    Interesting inclusion of NPC survivors
    Enjoyable events, such as the falling vehicles, alarmed gun store, and "no weapons/ammo" setup
    

    Cons:

    Lackluster visuals in some areas
    Some areas felt repetitious
    (Non-melee) weapons/ammo scarce

I also appreciated the restraint practiced in the few modest crescendo events, avoiding an "as many as possible" approach. My biggest complaint was the inconsistent level design. Some areas are detailed, well thought-out, and beautifully designed. Others are uninspired and seem lazily put together. This felt especially egregious around the third time entering the sewer. In an unfortunate way, the museum in the finale is recreated so painstakingly that it makes apparent how bland many other areas are in comparison.
