Thank You. Enjoyed
Finished it in 1 hour & 27 minutes & only 1 Restart on Expert Single Player Mode --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1 : was a surprise for me to run to safe room on the first chapter using T1 weapons and I didn't know where to go and what was waiting for me out there, but it was so simple and hordes were in average. Loved the night time of that campaign in general and didn't expect I would get to safe room that quickly. I lost much HP because of that nasty Jockey attacking me by the end of the way outside the safe room, but I was rescued. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2: Again, an alarm to be shut down and it's somewhere pissed me off again, but I was hopeful enough to do it easily as long as bots are helping and it was all cool and closer than expected. Afterwards, hordes almost stopped and moving forward found that nice touch from you that I had to shoot that car with the military fixed gun to make it explode and it was good no problems. Yes, I encountered 2 tanks on that level, but I had much space to fight and move. The placement of spawning specials especially that nasty smoker was so good as it took off some HP and that was over the school building. The weird thing was that Witch spawned inside the school while we were about to jump in that hole after we got next to that tent where the ammo pile was there. The second tank was in a tricky spot down there, but I expected it and startled it shooting it while it was stuck by that hole which was really funny and then to the safe room. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3: Was the hardest chapter in this campaign and the longest although it got only 1 panic event, but we also had to fight 2 tanks and 1 lame bot got incapacitated twice and that bot was Nick he was unlucky enough XD That witch imprisoned freaked me out as I was afraid I lose a bot by her, but as soon as she was startled, she did nothing and then I shot her to death :) Moving outside the sewers, I found another witch waiting before the safe room under the tree and I gladly brought her to death too. The nasty thing was that smoker who was about to kill me after grabbing me with its tongue and luckily weak Nick saved me before I was about to restart that chapter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 4 / Finale : Was worried about its length and difficulty, but found it so big with much space to fight and yes, I decided to drop my auto-shotgun as sniper rifle did great there and bots shot everything before any got closer to us as we stood behind that fence and I even turned my flashlight off to see well through the fences. The issue was in the safe room as some items were floating and I couldn't refill ammo as I couldn't reach the ammo pile that was either hidden or in unreachable dimension inside the game XD . The real surprise was when 3 tanks attacked us in the second round before the rescue came and I was stuck inside the fence as I thought I was going to fight only 2 not 3 so we killed one and another one came from faraway sending a rock to hug me with so after I fell, I knew that bots mostly wouldn't do it. This was the only one I fall and restart knowing I would do it on the second try. Knew that a chopper would mostly come to save us as no train, boat or a car seem to come as no sign of it at all. The second time fighting tanks was by moving and shooting around the fences and it was all fine and easy as long as we are out of fences for more space to move and shoot although tanks spawned from new different spots, but I could manage. It was good enough to have 3 bile bombs waiting as I used one till the chopper came while picking up another and the remarkable thing was that line I read of the man on the radio that I guess it was put there by You as it was the first time to read such a line. It was a nice addition for me. The chopper came by those wooden stairs of stadium and it was something new and good... It was called " Bad Neighborhood, but it was a good campaign... Thanks a lot

I'm in the wrong neighbourhood...
This was a fun but short campaign. A well made campaign,there wasn't any errors. There was some floating supplies though. A floating healthkit & ammo pile. This wasn't too challenging,a bit short finished it in under an hour. The finale was pretty easy but there wasn't an ammo pile at the end,but there were plenty of weapons around when you're out.

Average
An OK map. Clear directions of where to go and doable with bots and on expert difficulty. Some floating items around and bots wouldn't get medkits in some safe rooms. The finale was a bit of a let down with a very boring atmosphere and very bland.

Not Bad
PROS Dark Plenty of Supplies Good sewer design Helicopter can incap CONS Bots take a while to grab items at campaign start, wouldn't pick up weapons in Map 2 or 4 saferooms. The very last part of the sewers is poorly put together, making it hard for bots to crawl out Items in saferooms sometimes floating or just below where they're meant to be placed. No ammo pile in finale CONCLUSION Quick and fun, but didn't feel like it had been completely finished or balanced. All but map 3 are able to be done pretty quickly, and without taking that much damage, especially with bots able to see far away enemies that I couldn't because of the dark atmosphere. Then Map 3 plays like an entirely different campaign- it's more of a challenge than the other 3 maps combined. With a missing ammo pile, the finale wasn't entirely a crapshoot, but still, if you grab the hunting rifle, you can drop just about everything before they can reach you.

Decent.
I've watched your build logs and understood where you came from, still I was able to rush through Map 1 easily, Map 2's crescendo was cool but maybe put the alarm room further away or make more obstacles along the way? Because it was rather very easy to deal with. Map 3 was interesting but the water looks bad and unrealistic and I actually got incapped on the lift while it was going up and fell off of it, the bots whom were on the lift wouldn't save me, causing me to restart the level. Map 4 was pretty boring, as there wasn't many places to be at, I just stayed at the basketball court and killed the hordes and tanks with ease, I like the helicopter being able to incap people though, nice touch. Also Map 4 was too open for me. And there's also some problems with supplies in saferooms, they are floating under or over tables and other objects they are supposed to stand on. Everything else was good or okay, I like the map, not great but not horrible.

Not perfect, but not bad
So, I've quickly realized one problem: the bots are not good with the sewers. From entering the manhole in the previous chapter to leaving the sewers at the end of that one, their pathfinding is a bit off. Coach got stuck on the entrance to the sewer, they got lost or fell behind occasionally, and most irritating was the elevator part, where Coach refused to get on. Leaving the sewers, there's some glitches with the pipe, namely, that the opening is messed up and too small except for the left side. The bots do not like this area at all. After that, everything's fine again. Basically, you made a sewer level just like every sewer level ever made. I don't know if it's possible to make a good one anyways. I love the setting, and the school was groovy, but I would suggest perhaps more of the houses and school. More open houses to explore, more easter eggs, maybe the gnome, maybe some other stuff, and like I said, more school to explore. The last area was also a bit empty, but that's hard to get around, since parks are known for being rather wide and open. However, there is a way to solve this: crash a plane into it, and shrink it down. This easily fixes both the blandness and openness.
-
Oh, I completely forgot: Your weapon, ammo, and item placements in the safehouses are clipping into stuff, floating, or both. That's another issue.

Not bad but lacks character
Large and open areas but not much character. We didn't have a single issue with the map although the rescue copter took longer to lift off than it should and we all got incapped by a spitter in the copter so we didn't get credit for finishing the campaign. Lots of infected which is something our group enjoys but mostly a run and gun campaign. All in all an average campaign that can be finished relatively quickly. I do appreciate anyone who is willing to make new L4D content so thanks for the campaign and I hope you give it another go.

Thanks for the review and feedback seramphanx, could you tell me which parts did you feel lost at? I will be doing an update soon and adding in another level underground to avoid the open area issues people are experiencing.

Pros:
Good idea Good atmosphere Structure Map 1 Good position of provisions
Cons:
Very large and very confusing second map Full of empty and open spaces Third map looks unfinished No Tank, or Witch spawn Very boring second map No dialogue among survivors A little repetitive
Conclusion:
This campaign is regular, reeling for bad. The idea is good, but lacks much content and work to be playable and enjoyable. I hope it comes out soon improved version of this map. Has much to give 4/10

Wouldn't 4/10 be 2 stars?

Thanks for the feedback Dark, could you tell me at what place in the 2nd map did you get lost? Also the 3rd map is finished, it's just a simple park finale, but I will be splitting up the 2nd map and cutting out the large open area after you get out of the school with a sewer level. Tanks and witches do spawn, but its up to the director to decide when they spawn so depending on the difficulty your playing on might be a factor in that. Haven't really understood the algorithm in how these spawn, its just a true or false in if they can or not in the scripts, but I can force a tank in an area to be sure. Also what seems repetitive about the map?

Hey edu.62, thanks for your review and feedback, but could you tell me a bit more about the areas in which you didn't like exactly? Or what seemed too big to you? Also what did you feel made it unfun? Was it mainly due to the open areas? Any direct examples will help me understand a bit more of your review because as of now all I have to go on is its to big of a map. Thanks again.
