      Nice "Silent Hill" concept, but many things need fixing

      The concept about "Silent Hill" environments is good. Unfortunately, there are still many things to fix, like:
      1. Invisible walls in map 1 & 2.
      2. Bugged common infected's spawn (most of the time, they either stand still or don't spawn at all)
      3. Bugged special infected's spawn (they are often stuck somewhere or behind a locked door.
      4. Items & switches don't glow.
      5. Many empty areas & rooms (it feels like middle quality between orange campaign & well-made campaign, more to imperfect campaign that still needs some works).
      6. Less to no clue about the items & switches.
      7. Many "Error" signs in map 1 even after using "Halflife Texture".
      
      In short, compared to old "Silent Hill" campaigns, this one is the incomplete version. There's nothing much to expect except exploration & puzzle-solving missions (this reminds me of "The Divide" campaigns that also focus more on exploration & puzzle-solving missions). Unfortunately, this campaign is discontinued so any further updates are impossible, unless if the author is back or there are some people willing to either fix this campaign or use some of the maps as a mashup campaign.

      Great campaign. However. It was a bit too bland, there was really nothing.... It was pretty empty. However, there was plenty of supplies. The ambience was AMAZING I applaud you for that, really felt immersed as all of the ambient music kept playing. No botnav errors. However, in the first chapter, while the cutscene is playing, there's a chance that a special infected can grab you and kill you. And there were missing textures and meshes every once and a while as well. Overall, I honestly liked it.

      Pros:

      -Cool Atmosphere seems to me at times to be more horror focused than left 4 dead normally is.
      -Open spaces to fight tanks, and special infected.
      -Based on Silent Hill
      -Like the idea of finding keys to proceed.

      Cons:

      -Few common infected when they do spawn they are in idle clumps.
      -Last chapter wouldn't load. I don't know if this is beacuse I didn't have Half Life 2 textures installed 
      -Need more scenic objects such as tables, plants, cars,etc

      Conclusion:

      Needs some work but it has potential to be good.

      Pros:

      Some creative areas/events
      Long, not too hard levels
      Well balanced with equipments (due to the low zombie rate)
      

      Cons:

      In general:
      
      Very blocky and lack of details and props
      Pretty hard level design for bots (suicided sometimes)
      No soundscapes
      Very few common zombies
      
      Bad balance between tanks and witches
      Levels did not make much sense at all
      Really, really dark
      Panic events dont work (already pointed out though)
      
      Misc:
      
      I jumped in the elevator and was suddenly on the elevator roof, stuck

      Conclusion:

      One of the most undetaild campaigns I have played for a long time. It's very blocky, have almost nothing intresting in it and the navigation, panic events and zombie spawn rate are barely working. 
      
      And on top of that, in map 2, I did only fight against <20 regular zombies and 4 specials only to face a witch and 2 tanks almost at the same area. We survived only becasue I ran away and waited for the tanks to burn to death. And for what? To go into the elevator and get stuck on the roof...
      
      I understand it's your first campaign and based on Silent Hill, but you need to learn alot more about level design becasue this campaign have everything you can expect from a first uploader. Better luck next time
