Pros:
Atmosphere was nice
Cons:
Bots didn't want to pick up health Map 3 started with no medkits in saferoom Turning off the switch takes way too long The path is rarely clear, and at map 3, it gets even worse in the swamp town ruins.
Conclusion:
Terrible. Bots were almost broken enough to delete this after map 1. I suffered through up until map 3, then decided I was sick of not knowing where to go and bots not picking up health.

Pros:
-some really nice ideas -great idea for finale -creative -you got suprised (had never thought that we would come to a ruine after the swamppart) -good idea with the fuel -nice design with tubes -liked the atmosphere in finale
Cons:
-turning off the power takes much too long time (map 1) - the message about the jammed switch is also alone to be seen by that person who turns it off in coop -the way after turning power off in map one was little hard to find (hint 'd been nice) -some texture problems (broken window of store in map 1, sky in map 2, ...) -not enough melee -saferoom map 3: weapon is in air -no first aid on many places -in the tubes we fell into the floor one time -way in tubes was hard to find -doors often open in direction where player stands -hint by waggon would have been nice, also by shooting the fuel (found out both by accident) -problems with visibility - you see often nothing and got surprised by objects -bots have problems to take first aid -the lift is some kind of magnetic - you have big problems to come out of it -when had to take the fuel: zombies spawned behind walls but there where no attacking zombies while taking the fuel, also boring that it was all together -finale was way to easy
Conclusion:
This was a campaign with a lot of creative ideas and it makes fun to play it. But there are also still a lot of bugs and thinks that take some fun away. I know you put a lot of work and effort into this, maybe those things may help to make the campaign even better. Liked the suprising moments and the idea behing this campaign but some bugs etc made it not very enjoyable to play.

Pros:
- Different environments - Rescue closets are well placed - Entertaining - Perfect difficulty, not too hard or too easy - Bot navigation - Dialogue between survivors
Cons:
- Glitchy ladder - Finale is extremely short - Multiple objects used from original l4d2 campaigns - Not many melee weapons - Water graphics were glitchy
Conclusion:
Decent campaign with no major issues, although the finale seemed a bit rushed.

Pros:
+ Levels were enjoyable. + Maps felt created with effort. + Awesome places around the lakes. + Various environments with quite some detail. + Fitting horde and tank events. + Did not see any heave glitches. + Huge tent-finale was diversified. + Creative contents, especially custom ones. + Fluent gameplay though the whole campaign.
Cons:
- M1: Some pink textures here and there. - M2: AI mate Zoey got stuck climbing uo the ladder. - M2: Water graphics were flickering inside the sewer. - M3: Hovering items indide the saferoom. - M4: Purple textures by shooting windows of a shop. - M5: Finale was short, nearly any enemies and Tanks. - M5: Finale outro, landed in saferoom, then Stats. - One or two Tanks more in each map would be great.
Conclusion:
Cool campaign, enjoyed it. Just some minor bugs mentioned above but nothing serious. The only thing I do have to complain about is the short finale. I just ran towards the helicopter as fast as I was able to, but there were nearly any other enemies, and absolutely no Tanks. Also the ourto could have been better. M1 (-0,2) M2 (-0,5) M3 (-0,2) M4 (-0,2) M5 (-0,7) Misc (-0,2) ======= Score of 8/10 points.

Pros:
Fast paced. well designed levels plenty of zombies, lots of spitters decent enough witches good finale!
Cons:
map crashes game during second map load - able to restart at chapter two and play through weapons floating at the beginning of the third map - maybe 1 or 2 more tanks during the other levels.
Conclusion:
All in all, a pretty fun map to play. I will definitely keep this in rotation and play it again. I hope the author continues to debug this map and tweak it a bit more. It's really a fun map to play. :)

Pros:
Lots of good detail. 5 awesome maps
Cons:
Level 3 was confusing. Could not find the exit No helicopter in level 5. Sound, no visual Fetch and carry in level 4 was tedious to play in single mode Could not find path through flames
Conclusion:
There is a lot of good stuff here. Good, imaginative map work. I tried playing it in single user mode and couldn't finish level 3 because I could not find the exit. Turned cheats on and played in Gibfest mode, mutation14. Still had a hard time with level 3.

Pros:
Different Areas Med Kits are not overly plentiful Fun, Logical progression
Cons:
The final scene is insane. As if the over abundance of tanks were not enough, you also have to cope with too many hordes. You can't move. Finding the defensible position was not hard but once the rescue shows up you can't see it.
Conclusion:
If you like playing a fairly long campaign, but don't mind not being able to finish then this is for you. I had fun up until the end, then it felt like I wasted my time.

Pros:
Very challenging for advanced players which is fun; we play couch-coop a lot… Maps are diverse and less “glitchy†than most… looks good and good content.
Cons:
The Finale is ridiculous to the point of frustration beyond anything fun… Hoards are absolutely non-stop from the beginning together with a mix of up to four (4) simultaneous Tanks… The rescue is audible (loud) but never appears or manifests for boarding. There is no time to explore the map for options due to the relentless Hoards, the rescuer speaks of a mounted gun, but we have never found it. We have finished about 150 L4D(2) campaigns but not this one.
Conclusion:
Very fun to a point... unless you like to complete a campaign.

Pros:
Close quarters makes melee weapons a must Easy to navigate map due to red flares Decent variety of weapons Good spots for ammo piles Plenty of throwables Scavenge finale was very fun and close quarters Dark where it needs to be otherwise there is plenty bright lights
Cons:
Strange Tree shadows in all of the water. Low fps throughout the campaign Parking garage was confusing Elevator had a huge push area Top of parking garage things would render in as I walked (valve problem so no mark down for it) Needs some more melee weapons Vibrant red was distracting Map 3 saferoom missing medkits, ammo, and guns (intended?)
Conclusion:
This was a really great map. I played on my server but no one joined but I still finished it on normal no retries. I had previously commented that the campaign was too dark which the dev fixed with brighter lighting. Some of the lights seemed a bit too bright and distracting but the flares were just right. In the parking garage I got lost and went to the very top only to find that wasn't the right way to go. I think it could use a little more variety of weapons and more melee weapons because there are so many zombies. Map 3 saferoom didn't have any medkits, ammo or guns though I am not sure if this was intended. Overall I had a lot of fun in this map. The detail and placement of props was fantastic. Once this campaign is optimized some more is should be a really good one. 88/100

Pros:
-cool loading poster -i like where you start and end on the campaign -well thought out panic events -well spaced out ammo piles -i like the festival in the beginning -the scavenge at the end is tuff by your self on advance, but manageable with friends -i like the swamp area, (to me) it was really realistic.
Cons:
-maybe a little more details on the sewer maps - very little lag spikes in some areas but not major -2 missing textures in the 1st map(ill message you tomorrow where they are) (not a con just wanted to say this) -i think it was just me but in 1 part of the of the campaign i saw a clown,swat guy and jimmy gibbs all in one of little area
Conclusion:
i like the the campaign over all , its was really fun kicking zombie @#$ in Louisianna!
