The metro stage seems so... bland. No ambience, not much detail, routes are just straight from A to B which is just boring, and these cheesy textures (that spider's web tho) - the design isn't bad, but it's not THAT good too. It definitely lacked "something"

Great map, lots of fun !

Can't even review the game. Bots would not get onto the elevator no matter what I did. They left the safe room, and stood there, hence I could not leave the area either (since the elevator would not move until the bots were on it). I know that there will be no more updates on this campaign, and so that's it. I deleted the campaign from my Left 4 Dead game. If it works for you, great. Didn't work for me.

Pros

+ Creative level designs + Long campaign + Enjoyed getting tier 2 weapons early + Decent amount of throwables and ammo + Tower was cool + Tanks spread out and strategically placed + Bot navigation worked well on single player

Cons

- Some ammo boxes didn't work - Bots didn't pick up health kits sometimes - Finale was too easy - Big rooms with sparse decorations - Airport schedule in subway - Graffiti looked fake - Too many ladders

Fun on single player, might be too easy on multiplayer. Good level layout with areas to explore. Never got lost and was decently lead in correct direction. A lot of the areas between Map 1-3 were large with very little decoration. Lots of empty and pointless rooms. Often no rewards for exploring.

Pros

+ Some of the maps are super pretty and unique. The needle tower is the highlight for sure. Gorgeous moment. + Decent pacing and varied set-pieces. Each map has something unique going for it. + Optimal difficulty level until the finale.

Cons

- Quite a lot of dull and empty areas inbetween the pretty/fun stuff. - Some glitchy or poorly mapped areas. For example at the end of Map 2 you can climb over the lorry next to the safe room and get stuck on the other side. - Map 4 is pretty love it or hate it due to how gimmicky it is with the bay crossing, but it's short too so not too big a deal. - Some maps have way more detail than others. There's a slight sense of disconnect at times (for example, on Map 3, when you look back at the area below the Needle that you just travelled through in Map 2, it looks way too ridiculously basic for how close you are to it. There are several spots throughout the campaign where the scenery is flawless, and yet others where you can clearly see the edge of the map, or even the 3D skybox in gaps in the ground. - Finale is rather easy, there's hardly anywhere for the infected to surprise you from, they all spawn up at the bridge and take a while to reach you.

Fun campaign, but very flawed. Even though this map holds precious memories for me back when I first played it before Left 4 Dead 2 was even heard of, it has aged somewhat badly, making it hard to recommend to the more discerning players of today who may have played crazy complex projects such as I Hate Mountains and all that. Still, it's a decent map and still good fun. If you're willing to put up with a few dull/empty areas and visual oddities, it's worth a play.

Pros

---- In general ---- + Maps are designed very beautifully. + Campaign skybox is simply awesome. + AI navigation was working properly. + Francis talker line in the beginning. + Almost fluent gameplay. + Tanks were placed very well. + Finale kept us busy all the time. + Long 5 maps campaign. + Glass tower with the skybox, incredible.

Cons

---- In general ---- - AI sometimes took their time to get aboard. - I'd rather prefer more throwables. - Louis fell of the Bridge we had to cross.

Great! I really enjoyed this one! There were nearly no bugs or glitches, and especially the AI navigation was working well. Respect.
