Cool map ,,,, but could have made even bigger map ,,,, GOOD THINGS THAT I SAW IN MAP : >> no error found in any place like some other maps. >> tier 2 weapons are available from the start. SOME BAD THINGS THAT I SAW IN MAP : >> the map is too short and very easy to play. >> tank is seen only in the finale. >> witch is not seen anywhere. >> the rescue point, the place where we wil get to chopper when he arrives, is made right at the place exactly where tank spawns. >> tank and hordes, and also some special infecteds should be seen often, to make preparation for finale,,,but here, the whole map comes plain and very rough at finale ,,,,, beginners find whole campaign too easy, and finale too difficult... >> the next safe house will be just next street from the previous safe house. >> I've completed this campaign in just 16min 25sec time,, in EXPERT mode with no deaths... And first aid used just once ,,,

Pros

==== In general ==== + Short but not too short. + Finale rescue arena was great. + Descend AI navigation. + Rooftop fighting was great. + Right amount of throwables. + Not too less other equipment. + Tanks in every map. + Various ways that lead to the safe spots. + Aiming at switches make survivors talk.

Cons

==== Map 1 ==== - AI mates were not always following. - Mercy hospital in the background ruined the moment to show custom content. ==== Map 4 - Finale ==== - Blocky areas everywhere. - Too many special infected on the roof at the chopper. ==== In general ==== - Small and blocky areas in apartments. - In my opinion there was lack of own creativity.

Nice campaign but the No Mercy setting in the background of map 1 was disturbing and somehow blocking the creativity and the custom contents. There's not much to say about it, but all in all I liked it.

Pros

- Many ways to chose. - Cool Graphic but nothing special. - Final is nicely designed.

Cons

- Short and easy maps. - Too easy to navigate, not enough exploration. - Poster.

Pretty cool map, but very quickly done. Nothing special to say. I wont remember it, but it was a good entertainement. :)

Pros

Good length of the map. Many ways to choose thats nice. The light and darkness are well placed. Limited Kit and Pills. Long way to get Tier 2 guns. Enough Witch.

Cons

Bot kill themselves on the ledge of the elevator(they can't grip on it) Bot hurt themselves on the final map ladder or else grip asking for help. The horde spawn near the ladder, this make them easy to kill.(A bit too much easy) Not enough Tank during campaign. Starting in a safe room. Too many ammo spot.

This campaign is nice there nothing really to say about its like playing No Mercy or else Dead Air to me but still it worth to play it i recommend it to everyone.

Pros

Simple-yet there's freedom among that simplicity. (there are usually several ways to reach the target) Level design are quite good. Not too challenging even on expert difficulty. Only 35 MB in size. A humble size.

Cons

Too short? AI problem at finale-keep getting up and down the laders. The beginning of the finale map is virtually the same as the fourth map.

I like this camopaign, it is not the one who boosts about how "hardcore" or how big the size of file it is.

By Alblaka May 2010

Pros

-A nice theme idea and authentic designed maps -Seeing the Mercy Hospital in background just looks great -The levelpart on the city roofs is quite nice

Cons

-The loading screens doesn't look very L4D-ish -I'm used to NOT spawning in a saferoom on the first level of a campaign -A massive lack of explosives... I think i found 3 Molotovs at total, all in the same level. In combination with the rare T2 weapons tanks get to a serous problem. -Up to the last level i never found a 2nd pistol. Shouldn't be THAT rare, should it? -Also, on start of Level 4 the tank got spawned just when leaving the saferoom... To early! -There are (expspecially in the finale) many failed AI paths (surv-wise). In the finale they just kept jumping to death, ignoring ladders etc. -If you even use the exactly same radio convo as in No Mercy, pls also use the continuous radio call before activating it the first time.

In total, the map-designs are nicely made and very authentic. But they clearly lack of weapons/explosives and the AI paths for surv-bots are just cruelly bad. I will give it a 68.
