Bland map with an incomplete feel
Played once, would not play again. Pros A lot of time went into this. Good idea for the ending. Cons A bland map which can't be hidden by making it dark. It would have been better to make the areas smaller and better than long and boring. Poor choice of weapons. No special ammo drops or lasers that we could see. No melee weapons. Lots of glitches with objects zed spawns and structures. Re-use of the same structures makes it uninteresting. Pathing poor. Lots of rooms without windows. Lots of doors you can't open. Make the insides of more of the buildings or shorten the map. The odd locked door is okay.

"Poor choice of weapons. No special ammo drops or lasers that we could see. No melee weapons." This isn't L4D2, just saying

Pros:
Different from other campaigns. Nice collectible notes. The finale was not too easy.
Cons:
Overall, not that fun. You don't want to play it again. I tried to jump onto the crashed trucks on map 2 and died. AI were stupid on the silos.
Conclusion:
A very forgettable campaign, bad when comparing it to others. Worth to play once.

Pros:
~~~Overall~~~ -I loved the farm setting. It was very realistic and spread out. -There was some nice dialogue between the survivors. -The crescendos were unique and fun. -I loved the school evac. center, was very creepy. -The custom content was all good. The notes found in the school seemed very real. -I think the length of the campaign was perfect. -There was enough ammo and health for my liking. -There were good amounts of hoards, specials, and tanks. -There was no direction, which normally I wouldn't like, but I think it fit the rural, realistic farm setting. If you've ever been lost in the country, there aren't many signs telling you where to go. -The farm houses were nicely done
Cons:
~~~Map 2~~~ -I accidentally got behind the barb-wire fence, and was able to see behind the map into the gray areas. ~~~Map 4~~~ -AI were a bit buggy on the silos.
Conclusion:
This has been one of my favorite campaigns on L4D for realism. I thought the similarities to a small farm community were great. The crescendos were very creative, and the custom content added a lot. The finale was unique and made for an interesting ending. I only found a couple small errors, other than that, it was great!

Pros:
+ Great level of detail. + Great deisgn of surroundings. + Great design of making a rural village. + Dark and creepy feeling. + Good bot NAV through the campaign. + Custom textures and machanisms. + Finale idea was unique, but see Cons. + Flawless gameplay, I have to give credit for that. + Good amount of throwables. + Overall good spread of supplies, searching for them. + Various paths one can choose. + School next to a farm? Why not? + Great design of the gymnasium hall inside the school. + Good timing for horde and tank events. + Support for L4D1.
Cons:
- Not enough ammo piles spread in map 4. - Finale was way too complicated. - Finale voice appearing, but too soft during the fight. - Not enough directions, especially in map 3. - Not enough supplies in the finale, no ammo, medkits I could find.
Conclusion:
Hell all in all I would say this one is very unique. But despite that, I would honestly place more ammo piles in the 3rd and 4th map and I'd also ease up the whole campaign. It was truely annoying that there's been so less equipment in the finale. My ammo had run low and my health aswell, so we finally died on MEDIUM.

Pros:
Long campaign Great use of panic events Non-linear Interesting locations( I really liked 4th map with walking on these big silos ) Challenging Funny finale
Cons:
Sometimes you don't know where to go Most of terrain is flat ( in woods it looks terrible ) Lack of detailed areas
Conclusion:
This is really good campaign & challenging. You should try to make a bit smaller areas but with more details. Ah and put more lights & marks for player to know where to go.

Pros:
- Great atmosphere. The huge, dark envioronments make you feel very lonely, even with your team mates. - Original, inventive crescendo events, although... - That's to say nothing of the finale, which was a fantastic extension of the ideas introduced with Crash Course's finale. I can't believe no-one's reviews even mention this. It's a brilliant, fun, original finale, and after the fun I had on the rest of the campaign, did not dissapoint at all considering the safe room graffitti narrative leading up to it. - The journals lying around are a nice touch too actually. Generally speaking the sense of narrative was brilliant. The abandoned evacuation center of the school was the best example of this. - Despite the large envioronment I never got lost or confused on where to go.
Cons:
- I didn't care myself, but I can understand the criticism of the maps feeling very empty. There are large areas with not much in them. - Either I missed some journals or the backstory really didn't amount to much. They were interesting but just sort of... stopped. I didn't really get involved in your characters at all, which is something I would have liked to have done. It's still interesting from a standpoint of seeing how the infection was affecting people (even if it is technically fanfiction, lol), but all your characters were... almost too professional about the situation. It's something that I hate about some sci-fi writing. All the technical stuff and information is there, but none of the heart. These are real people, and I wanted to know more about how they really felt. Leave the journals as they are, but maybe add a few more from the characters about what was going on for them personally. Or maybe such things were in there and I just didn't find them, in which case I apologise. - No intro movie. With the epic finale, journals and excellent wall writings, this is the one bit that ruins the professional feel of the map's narrative.
Conclusion:
I wanted to come and leave a positive review, even though it was ages back I played this, if nothing else to spite all these negative ones I'm seeing. I adored my time in this campaign, I really got involved thanks to the great atmosphere and care and attention to narrative. The maps ARE very large and empty, but the brilliant crescendos and finale more than make up for that. I'm giving this a pretty high rating of 90+, but honestly, I just really enjoyed this campaign from start to finish.

Pros:
Nice background Story Nice custom Dialog
Cons:
Way too big (got lost easily) LOTS of leaks in maps lots of large plain areas with no dynamics whatsoever school part didnt make any sense the classrooms were just filled with plain textures and some medical equipment weird ending random car came to pick you up (not challenging enough)
Conclusion:
If you can get those leaks out and make the wide open areas a little more dynamic this would make a great map it was kind of fun trying to figure out where to go though

ImpossiblePosted this review
Pros:
-Great atmosphere -Unique design -Overall fun with friends -Creative finale ideas -Storytelling via readable notes -Extra task for the finale
Cons:
-Some areas were bland -Mostly only environmental lighting, which means a lack of visual cues, sometimes making it very hard to find out where to go. -The readable notes appear for everyone even when only one person reads them , which can be quite annoying -Not really a con, but even though the evac tells you to blow up the bridge to prevent acces for the infected, the infected come mostly from everywhere but the bridge.
Conclusion:
A fun campaign, lots of good ideas especially with the finale and some panic events, however it gets dull at some parts. But this won't stop this campaign from being overall really fun, anyone who likes a campaign with a few unique ideas thrown in it should definitely try this out.

Pros:
All original and new panic events. Gauntlets? In my L4D? Huge maps leading to two tanks per level. Great ammo balancing. One of the most entertaining finales ever. The logs and medical clipboards, although nothing really original or never seen before, add some depth to the campaign.
Cons:
All exterior zones are poorly detailed. Some buildings suffer from the same problem. The finale's workshed is way too secure. Breakable walls should be added. Missing textures for the explosions on the bridge. Sometimes supplies are so scarce you will be begging for a pipe just because you're tired of entering rooms with nothing of interest. A few graphical glitches here and there.
Conclusion:
The first time I played this campaign I totally fell in love with it. It makes me sad to see that a lot of people rated this low because they got lost. At this rate L4D3 will have a GPS system included so people can understand that if there's a road that's where they want to go. Anyway, while i love it, it's far from perfect. Unless you have absolutely no sense of direction you should give it a try - keeping in mind it's an ''open world'', not a hallway.

Pros:
Long. nice challenge level. go in depth with info on the infection on the school level. fun. good interesting finale.
Cons:
bad weapon placement on some levels like level 3 were there are no guns for the whole level. a few error sighs might be because i was playing on l4d2. hard finale.
Conclusion:
A good long campaign but can lost easy at some points. Great in depth info on infection in the school. Quite a bit of detail and like how it is full of army vans. Challenging at times but not to bad. get this if you want a good long campaign.

Pros:
-I love the openness of the map. -I like the concept of the farms. -Good textures in some spots. -Good amounts of witches, tanks, specials, and zombies. -Fun finale
Cons:
-SO many "Where the heck am I going?" moments. -I've never seen a building that white, in all my life. (Start of Map 2) -Needs more supplies -(Map 3 or 4) All 3 bots jumped off of the silos and killed themselves (I don't blame them).
Conclusion:
This campaign COULD have been made great. The idea of a huge open farm area, with farm themed crescendo events. I would have liked to see a lot more come out of this map. It was monotonous, and kind of boring. Not much of any obstacles. The best thing about this map were the zombie spawns, and some of the textures. It needs a LOT of work. Let's just say, when I heard Zoey say, "We're almost outta here!" I was relieved. Shouldn't be rated higher than a 50, sorry. I give it a 40.
