ABOUT:

Fatal Freight: Remastered is a 5-chapter campaign created with a strong focus on delivering balanced gameplay on all difficulties and gametypes. Each level has undergone extreme testing and tweaking to put them on par with the official campaigns from Valve. Fatal Freight: Remastered offers new and veteran players alike a dramatic and highly entertaining experience from start to finish while modelling the original and iconic coop gameplay that has made the Left 4 Dead series so successful.

In this new edition of the campaign, drastic improvements have been made to the campaign on almost all fronts.
You can expect crisper visuals powered by AI-enhanced textures and revamped/improved lighting, shadowing, and color palettes designed to give the campaign its own unique feel.
Functionally, things have been even more polished, with plenty of improvements on bot navigation, collision optimization, and rebalancing.
There have been a plethora of bug fixes shipped with this update, including the ever-famous "stringtable" crash present on Dedicated Servers.

After crashing their vehicle, the survivors find themselves holed up in a small tunnel at the edge of the forest. With supplies running low and the frigid winter looming on the horizon, there is little hope for survival. Suddenly, a strange voice comes through the radio. A man, claiming to have a means of escape is holed up at a freight train depot a few miles away. Seeing it as their best option, the survivors grab their remaining supplies and head out into the woods..

As per another poster below, I also had a bug where the finale wouldn't start. After initially speaking to the train driver on the radio, interacting with it a second time doesn't actually start the finale and the doors don't open. The highlights for the generator and gas can appear, but no gas counter at the top nor finale start music.

If you told me that this campaign was part of the original game, I would believe you. Valve quality map. Good gameplay, interesting locations, good panic events, and the finale is set in a memorable location. Plenty of supplies and scaled well to difficulty - you can play this on advanced and expert and not want to shoot yourself in the face because of bots. Special infected spawn warning sounds are incredibly loud for me and the people I played it with in Campaign. I assume it's intended, as the campaign has it's own horde warning sounds. Not really a complaint, just found it quirky. Regardless, it helped me distinguish the difference between the spitter and jockey warnings, which I've struggled with forever. Absolutely recommended, one of the best custom campaigns I've played, particularly if you like a more vanilla experience.

Good quality but boring.

By youtae December 2020

no bug, high quality map design and texture. but it is a bit easy. and it's obvious.

new

By youtube_gamer November 2020

Hello everyone, this map caught my attention because it is such a publisher in the game, so that's why it caught my attention and play this map and it's quite entertaining. Play it for 2 or 3 hours and I liked it so I'll give it 5 stars because I liked it a lot

Long Good Campaign

By Wheity November 2020

5 long maps, Weapons and muntions spawn different after loading new the maps. Different Events and a very good flow to play. I played with 4 guys. it was so funny. Very nicely spray logos everywhere with some small mini texts. Also the figures are speaking to each other with good jokes :)

Nice Job but quite Easy on Normal Mode

By PanosGR November 2020

You did great man! This is a nice bunch of maps with cool visuals. But me and my team found it very easy playing on Normal Mode. So, if you guys want to enjoy this one in Co-Op, play it at least on Hard Mode.
