      Ch1 was completed with 0 Restarts. It was long, but easy to handle. Tank & panic event.
      
      Ch2 was completed with 0 Restarts. I got an idea about how it would be like because I previously played Never Ending War: chapter 3 and the gunshop chapter is the 3rd chapter in that chapter 3 campaign unlike this one here. So I knew the tank troll and we had a long run to safe room with an additional panic event. Some textures were missing in the sewers right before safe room and jumping down the ladder.
      
      Ch3 was completed after 3 Restarts because an unfair tank spawn after the tunnel in the beginning and that was twice. 3rd time was a bad grab by smoker that ruined the entire run in prison on the way to shut off the alarm. I encountered a bad bot response issue as I fell off the window through which I get inside the prison with alarm as I was dying and all bots stopped next to me without any help. I got Advanced AI & Left 4 Bots to make up for real players when it comes to defib, carrying supplies and resuming after my death. They moved and used defib on me after I died. All on recorded footage. It was a long chapter just like ch1. I enjoyed those real humans avatars imprisoned. A jockey spawned next to one of them and it was funny.
      
      Ch4 was completed with 0 Restarts. It seemed hard and the finale area was misleading and needed a lot of exploration to decide where to camp. The tanks for both cycles didn't come as they got stuck in upper areas inside the warehouse itself. I love when they are stuck and die. This means an easy finale. I didn't have to refill ammo during that finale. 
      
      I wonder if you and SpeedBoost are the same person as I know the series of Never Ending War that I played the first 3 chapters of it as well as the final chapter that got 2 different routes determined according to the route we take in the previous chapter. According to what you said as a reply to one of reviews here, you used to reboot or remaster but this wasn't a good thing to do and you stopped it. Just keep it up and I hope I come across more maps by you soon. Good luck!

      Yeah, It's Better Than the Original One

      It's not a completely new campaign, but of course it has something new and nice. The map design and details are better than the original one, but the amount of issues aren't less. Not really a quite nice campaign, but very worth playing if you've played the original one or other SpeedBoost campaigns (except Whispers of Winter).

      Well I seemed to have problems with the original and now I have problems with the redux heheh. Things were going smoothly 'till I finished chapter 1 and loading into chapter 2 crashed the game. It's a faulty string table. Chapter 3 has bad optimization issues so I get a consistent 100ish ping for most of it. Finale was fine. Yeah, not a smooth experience for me.

      It's better than the previous one.

      I got frustrated at the previous one and quit halfway through, but this one is durable.
      
      Good:
      -Nice and long (1hr 5min, advanced, that's how long it took me)
      -Bots navigation was fine
      -CSS weapons
      -Layout is fine
      
      Bad:
      -Wired glass texture in the building and wired water texture in the sewer
      -Missing eye textures in the hl2 citizens
      -I got lost for a bit, but found my way through
      -Some places were a bit hard to see
      -The never ending horde after taking the elevator down to the streets was just annoying and long.
      -I don't like the finale (my opinion)
      • This used to have a finale with the storage containers. I like that ending better. :)

End of results.
