Solemn Blackout
Left 4 Dead 2
Deep in the woods you find uncharted land and underground areas where you try to escape from darkness and far much more all while trying to reaching civilization once more... was for jungle contest but ya.... Dont expect this to be great. this was one of the first campaigns i ever did and havent gotten around to polishing it up heavily yet. not sure when i will or if i even will. enjoy~

Horrible map with flickering lights that give you headaches
By Mz Cookies
March 2018
PROS
- Two maps so you can get it over with faster
- Decent ideas just badly executed (Dev said it was one of his first maps)
CONS
- Flickering lights making the whole team feel sick
- Glitch: Players stay dead after the map restarts?
-Random horde spawns triggered by SI
- Finale glitched and the lever did not trigger horde so had to restart
- Unclear where to go
- Glitchy textures, can walk through many objects
Overall: Avoid this if constant flickering lights bother you. Plenty of other decent maps to play

This was actually a pretty solid campaign. However, the map design was poorly done. There are noticeable stretched textures, grass not connecting to anything, floating on its own. It looks.. pretty bad, however I really like the concept. It looks pretty damn awesome, just needs to be polished. Also, you can fall into the water and be stuck and die instantly. You can also spawn inside the saferoom walls on chapter 2. Also, it needs to be clearer where to go, it can be very confusing at times. Other than that I enjoyed it. The navmesh was pretty descent and there was no glitches/bugs. So it was ok overall, just needs to be polished up quite a bit. And also, fps optimization issues in chapter one, struggles on low end systems.

Ah ok. We all start somewhere. No hard feelings man, if you publish work, prepare to get criticized. xD
Shouldn't Have Been Left Unfinished

PROS
Very detailed forest/ruins
Finale is pretty good
CONS
No variety in weapons
Torches don't flicker that much
Path not always clear, mostly because it's too dark
Bots didn't want to grab health/weapons in Map 2 saferoom
Bots wouldn't pick up Tier 2 weapon in finale area, using Tier 1 instead.
Bots liked to get stalled near the vine ladder to climb on the finale roof area- they'd stop doing anything.
Finale stalled on first try- 2nd tank never spawned so I was stuck.
Bots on second try make it to the end, but won't jump in the rescue vehicle to trigger the victory.
Lag
CONCLUSION
As a beta, this is nearly ready, and has the makings of a fun, albeit short, campaign. Not sure why it got abandoned, but after 4.5 years, clearly it's as complete as it ever will be, and it's not great as a finished map.

Pros
• Custom Soundtrack
• Great Concept and Design
• [50/50] Interesting Finale Location
• Detailed [Few Notable Areas]
Cons
• Flickering Torch Lights [Very Annoying]
• Confusing Pathway
• [50/50] Finale is a Little Frustrating
• Bot Problem [Map 2]
More fun than expected, pretty confusing at the same time and the campaign feels very mediocre.

Pros
======= In general =======
+ Nice design.
+ Water !!
+ A lot of medkits.
+ Supplies spread around more than enough.
+ Bot navigation was quite good.
+ Finale wasn't too bad either.
+ No need to give this up, dear author!
Cons
======= Map 2 =======
- AI navigation problems: getting close to rescue vehicle.
- Music was crackling.
===================
======= Miscellaneous =======
- FPS drops.
- Laggy.
- Very short, let's say about 20 minutes.
- Hate these flickering lights . . . .
========================
Well I really don't know why you are not updating this campaign. It isn't bad at all. Sure it's very short and has a lot of FPS drops, but its very good for people who love short campaigns. Honestly, I think you could add at least two more maps to this campaign, so that it get's even better. Don't give this thing up!
