      Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

      It was meh. I guess it's ok considering it's a beta, however there were numerous bugs. On the 2nd map, in the area where you escape on the caravan, when the jets bomb the place, the l4d2 survivors suddenly have the l4d1 survivors voices as well as when you get into the caravan. Also on the finale, when the tank appears, there is so much going on the my ping went from 5 to 100+ and also, the rescue vehicle is non functional on the finale either. However, I liked the map design and the concept is also nice.It was meh. I guess it's ok considering it's a beta, however there were numerous bugs.

      Needs more work!

      I played every single map (one by one) and most of these have issues generally with bad Bot play. Bots don't generally use items nor pick up supplies. 
      Example is a Bot has a shotgun but doesn't pick up and AK-47 or rifle. The one Map that has a long ladder down all three Bots fell and died. I tried more than once and the same thing happened. Never saw any rooms to get a Bot back in the game. 
      
      The Aircraft carrier I didn't get to finish. I found the original 2 gas cans and fueled the Generator. Doesn't say how many you need and no others could I .find. Wandered all around the carrier hangar bay and flight deck (fortunately nothing to fight). Flight deck consoles said to fuel the generator. So after 4 plays I quit and went to another Map.
      
      The Highway overpass where you have to refuel the Van is totally ridiculous. I managed to get 6 gas cans to the Van (barely) and have no idea just how many you need. Still nothing although you can see plenty of highlighted cans. 
      Played it again and stockpiled cans near the up ramp. I even tried standing on items and jump tossing cans. Only will hit the railing and fail back.  These are all ridiculously far away and having to make repeated trips with endless hordes is a losing proposition. Finally a gas can fell through the bridge and into the water below on my third restart. Turns out it's a bad idea to get it as there was no way to exit the water. 
      
      The Finale with the Church and pile of dead was actually fairly easy. I used Molotovs one at a time (plenty in 2 piles) to set up flame barriers. Slowly mowed them down with the 50 cal short bursts and my AK-47 when the 50 cal overheated. Could not complete the Map as none of the Bots would get into the Copter so I quit after shooting tons of undead from the Copter. If I had a Molotov I would have tossed it on the Bots.
      
      So lot a good things going on. I remember playing this years ago and at that time I know I did complete the Maps I had issues with. I think someone "fixed it" like so many other perfectly good Maps (like Yama) that needed to be left alone.

      Confusing Pathways

      This campaign works fine for the most part.  The bot players won't pick up all the supplies.  This campaign would be better if the control panel inside the aircraft carrier wasn't so buggy.  I probably clicked on that control panel more than fifty times trying to activate it.  You have to activate that control panel near the ammo pile.  Then, you have to climb down a ladder and start the ship's generators.  The generators are behind a big, metal door with no indication that you can open it.  You just have to click on that door.  That will start the finale so that you can escape in the aircraft carrier.  I finally had a chance to play this campaign more than once.  The reason I have to give it such a low score is because the finale with the aircraft carrier is so buggy, and the finale with the van on the bridge is so difficult.  You have to search for gas cans to refill the gas tank in the van on the bridge.  There's no indication of how many gas cans you need to find.  There's only one ammo pile.  The ammo pile is a long distance from the van.  The bot players won't use that ammo pile.  There is an endless horde of zombies and Tanks attacking all at once.  There's very little chance you will ever refill the van's gas tank.  The original campaign on the Steam Workshop has the same problem.  This campaign has multiple finales depending on which paths you choose.  That's what makes it unique.  That doesn't mean it's great.

End of results.
