Lambda [Final 1.3] (Left 4 Dead)

In case it wasn't clear, this campaign is no longer maintained or supported in any way.

Campaign "details/7116" is an updated version ported in 2012/2013 by Keiji and/or Kevin (if my e-mail records serve me correctly), whose GameMaps account "profile/533937" for some reason currently bears my username but is not under my control. The port should contain all required HL2 content.

If you have any further issues, or like one reviewer wish to violate "[my] family members in eye and stupid mouth", please contact the author of the port.

============================================

Old description:

Lambda aims to bring the experiences from HL2 into L4D. IMPORTANT: Extraction of some HL2 files IS REQUIRED for functionality. READ THE CHANGELOG BEFORE DOWNLOADING! (The stacked files icon on the campaign screenshot) READ IT!

LINKS ARE FROZEN, AS FAR AS THE TUTORIALS; I DON'T KNOW YET WHETHER OR NOT I'LL SHELL OUT THE DOUGH TO BUY HL2 JUST TO GET THE FILES

This campaign looks promising but is bad requirements for correct installation and use. In the changelog contains an invalid link that does not take us anywhere. It would be interesting to the author of campaign update the information in this mod. Thanks.

Pros

Based on Half Life 2. Maintains the Half Life look and feel. Extraction process worked just fine in the past. Custom music. No missing models or textures (in the past). Finale was creative.

Cons

Might need updated one more time due to changes Valve brought on after Sacrifice. Although it's 7 maps, still feels a bit short. Extraction process may be a bit confusing for some. Just people abusing the rating system because they don't like being different or having fun in L4D.

Felt like posting a new review again since my last one was lost. Still not giving up or abandoning this campaign, would probably continue to play it more again if it ever came to L4D2. I remember loading it up in L4D2 once and it worked just fine. But due to all the crap Valve changes, it might need some work if brought to L4D2.

Pros

+Original concept +Unique finale idea +New survival content +Half-Life 2 references

Cons

-No tank music. -No preparation time for the finale. -Finale can be confusing to those who haven't played L4D2. -Bots don't know how to avoid a moving train. -Bots don't take weapons and medkits at the starting area.

While this is an interesting mod, especially for those who have played HL2, numerous bugs make it a less-than-enjoyable experience. Consider downloading for a use or two if you have HL2, but otherwise skip it.

Pros

Great reconstruction of half life 2 very accurate and is brilliant for left 4 dead. Although all the campaign maps are short it takes a while to do. Finale is intense. Textures when imported look great and has items from half life 2 (not for use obviously.)

Cons

Installation took a while but I personally didn't find it difficult and felt it was worth it. Finale wasn't very clear although it didn't take long to figure out it isn't the easily found. Slippery floor is a bit to slippery more so than I remember in half life 2 you can stand on it and go flying. Witches are hard to get past since they seem to block the path.

This campaign is great even though there are a number of Cons in it that can never be helped I enjoyed playing through this and will want to revisit it sometime soon this is perfect for fans of Half Life 2!

Pros

+ launched in l4d2 without problems. + details. + does not seem to City 17.

Cons

- short maps.

even though I have not played half-life, yet I can judge from similar carvings for l4d and alien swarm that the author tried to make the similarity. it would be nice if the author has filled in for a good sharing of texture in vpk. Unfortunately, I have not yet passed the last map. the author, not seven and 9 maps in the campaign.

Pros

Fantastic recreation of City 17 The most unique Finale I have ever played Loved the way that MOST of the campaign felt natural

Cons

The random respawn "box-o-doom" on the Rooftops level, it totally made no sense. The Finale could use some better audio ques to let you know that you're doing it right. I was stuck for like ten minutes waiting for the first gate to open outside of the radio room. Although I understand the reason behind it, I personally didn't like having to download a special program just to play this campaign. ALMOST made me not download.

If you are looking for a long, fun, and nostalgic (HL2 came out almost 6 years ago) campaign, LOOK NO FURTHER!!!!! There are only a few jarring notes in this pack, like the "BOX-O-DOOM" just outside the safe house in the Rooftops map, along with the elevator ride in the same map being cut. Now, I understand that a 1:1 recreation isn't possible, I just don't understand some of the decisions made in the remaking of this map. That being said, the adaptation is roughly 99% true to the original works, minus the lab area, but I wouldn't begin to tell you how to incorporate that into a L4D campaign and make it feel right.
