Pros:
*Campaign was playable.
Cons:
*So many copy and paste area from the official Valve campaigns. I think at least 50% of these maps are just copies. *1st map is incredibly short. *Dev textures shown in several places. *Bots had trouble moving around in some places, resorting to teleporting. *No health or ammo in final saferoom. *Easy to survive finale by staying inside saferoom. *Finale just seemed to end. No vehicle came. Screen just went to black, credits rolled and we were still being attacked during them. *Stats are broken. They didn't show anything like the real stats.
Conclusion:
This would have made a ok campaign if so much of it was a direct copy of what Valve had made in their maps and if the finale was sorted out. I was going through the map looking at places and saying to myself which Valve campaign it came from.

Pros:
+ Creative level design + Lots of ammo and pills + Nicely decorated maps + Plenty of oxygen tanks, propane tanks, and gas cans
Cons:
- Not enough throwables - Strange spawn points for infected - Short maps - Way too many tier 2 weapons scattered throughout maps - Finale needs work; see conclusion - Perhaps too many pills - Not much to explore
Conclusion:
Thanks for making a map for L4D1, there truly aren't enough. Maybe work on making longer levels and this campaign would be great. I was playing on single player and Bill got stuck at one of the ammo piles on Map 4. The finale was very easy. Also, when the rescue train arrived, I had to run after it. Then it said all 4 of us survived even though we weren't on train. When the credits starting rolling, the game was still playing. I could hear everyone still shooting and more infected spawning. Needs work.

Pros:
+ Great level design. + Great environments. + Custom textures. + Good AI NAV during the campaign. + Skybox seemed to be working correctly. + Horde and tank events were balanced pretty well. + Finale was a change for some time, but see Cons. + Good spread of supplies. + Loved the 3rd and 4th map, especially the cliffs. + Good cut scenes built in. + Flawess gameplay without any crashes or bugs. + Loved the whole game setting, so colorful. + Support for L4D1, thanks again.
Cons:
- Finale needs work. The train approaching us only saved me and Zoey. Rest had to die. - The finale area was pretty small and could use more throwables. - Sometimes the NAV on ladders seemed to be buggy. - There are reachable areas outside the map. - Sometimes there was too less space, in the woods for example. - Needs more throwables. - Finale really seemed to be uncompleted. - No survivor dialogues. - Broken stats, they didn't count properly.
Conclusion:
Huh something went wrong. Score was not correct. #1: review updated: changed wrong score from 9/10 to 4/10. Don't know what happened.

Pros:
Appreciate the L4D1 support! The up/down/around flow was good On single player I found it challenging on Normal Supplies seemed well balanced 5 maps!
Cons:
Not as picky as others, I found the cons to be minor Some areas had overlapping brushwork Some areas felt like Valve maps I would've chosen different Detail sprites Never saw rescue vehicle but we all made it
Conclusion:
Overall, I liked it. I was challenged, I felt like I wanted to explore. It could use another pass on bug fixing, but I'll definitely play it again. Stairs without handrails don't seem normal. Overall, I enjoyed it. Great job author!

Pros:
- appreciate the support of l4d1 - 5 maps
Cons:
-campaign is way too easy. ran through with 3 bots in 30 minutes on xpert. -maps are too short and boring. -dying on map2+3 would teleport you directly to the safehouse. -able to glitch out of bounds on map3 -too many throwables, pills & medkits -pourly optimized in many places -too much copy / paste from the official campaigns (no mercy / blood harvest) -repetitive areas over and over -ridiculous finaly! -no outro stats -no dialogues -no versus
Conclusion:
the campaign seems like somebody's first attempt but is not finished at all. as stated in cons it's very repetitive, boring and easy to rush through even with bots.
