      This campaign is great! But here is some problem...

      When I upgraded Bill's weapons to max level, he using a grenade launcher at one time and just discard it. But when it's discarded, the grenade launcher is not disappeared.
      And after few (short) seconds, he just grab a new grenade launcher and do it again.
      
      A few moments later, there is lot of grenade launcher on the ground. Too many. So now game just getting lagging because too many "objects". FPS drop has started.
      After few minute(or seconds), now game is totally much lagging. I can't playing the game normally.
      ...And now game has been completely freeze or crashed.
      
      Zombie was keep coming raid with no break-time, Bill was keep discard his own grenade launcher but he's grenade launcher is still usable, Midnight Rider's weird fire show skill is too laggy and risky because game crashed.
      
      What have you done? What have I missed? What a mess in here?
      Actually this map is great but maybe someone who author they should fix this problem.

      8.5

      Pros:

      Long, fun gameplay
      All 8 survivors
      Midnight Riders, nuff said
      A useful tutorial level
      
      

      Cons:

      A giant building would appear and then crash my game
      Lots of tanks
      AI is sometimes buggy, infected and survivors
      Buildings like the flamethrower and other objects can instantly kill survivors

      Conclusion:

      A very fun and fast-paced game, but there are the bugs and problems with it, hope it gets fixed!

      Pros:

      -Excellent system
      -Fun gameplay
      -Has all 8 survivors, and more
      -Allows the player to determine how they want the defenses set, most maps give you defenses and make you use those
      

      Cons:

      -WAAAAY too many Tank spawns, by the time i've revived all my team another Tank comes in
      -Blades on Lvl 3 Cop Car one-hit kill people and they can't be revived without dying again
      -The Large Building glitch, it crashes my game and happens almost every game
      -No ammo piles
      -Bots cant pick up weapons from Whitaker's Mobile Shop

      Conclusion:

      It's a great map, really fun but the Insta-Kill blades, frequent Tank spawns, and crashes ruin it. I would make the blades deal damage over time instead of instant kill, lower the amount of Tank spawns, move where the guns spawn in Whitaker's Shop, and make somewhere sell an Ammo Pile (maybe the Humvee). This is one of my favorite maps, I must have played it 10 times (still havent beaten it, came close once then the Large Building occured) and still find it fun. Just fix the many problems it has and it would be even better.

      Pros:

      • Resource system , you have to collect resource to buy something (+3.0 gameplay)
      • Interesting mechanics (+1.5 gameplay)
      • The environment is a nice idea (+1.5 env)
      • Not endless hordes

      Cons:

      • FPS Lagg. Had to turn down settings for just this map. (-0.4 gameplay)
      • Fog color is weird comparing with the skybox and 3D skybox. (-0.2 env)
      • SI sometimes are stuck in the window of the burger tank (-0.2 gameplay)
      • for some reason i had no music when a tank came (-0.2 env)

      Conclusion:

      Was a bit confusing at the start , but i found it out.
      In my opinion , the most thing that bothers me in this map was that it's totally boring. You are locked off from everything else , and you just have a simple relative big square you can play in. You only have to research some resources , buy some vehicles for items and weapons and the escaping train , which was interesting. Overall , a simple map with fun gameplay.
      
      Gameplay: 4.5 - 0.6 = 3.9 / Interesting system and gameplay , lots of features.
      Environment: 1.5 - 0.4 = 1.1 / No visual fun , just an simple environment with some interesting features such as the smoke.

      Pros:

      -Great Gameplay
      -very creative
      -amazing scripting
      -loved the lazer gnome
      -Vehicle upgrades
      -custom vehicles (no duh)
      -playable music

      Cons:

      -buying a maintenance truck first starts generating points without alerting the horde.
      -bots tend to run into the fully upgraded police car's blade and die without any hope of revival.
      -no amo piles (might be a pro if your looking for a bigger challenge)
      -Hireable survivors glitching into the killdozer
      -found myself outside the map alot with no way to get back

      Conclusion:

      Overall i loved it, however buying the maintenance truck allows you to generate points without alerting the horde so that made it way to easy to max out everything before i started with the train. and a couple of times Bill and Francis warped to the killdozer along with Luis, maybe it was just a glitch. other than a couple of other problems i loved it.

      7.6

      Pros:

      *re-playable since strategies can differ
      *unique upgrades not seen in other maps (props to the author for this extra variety)
      *vehicles are badass
      *has a 50's diner feel or back alley wrestling feel
      *can summon classic survivors 
      *very creative naming for objects
      *instant death spot is hilarious

      Cons:

      *can't upgrade jimmy gibbs (or so I'm aware)
      *the usual problems with 'Let's Build' concept (e.g. single player is hard, pushing 'e' a lot)
      *instant death spot is frustrating
      *SI get stuck a lot like behind ceda trailer

      Conclusion:

      Add some custom rock music or railroad tunes and this map would be killer.  Needs a motorcycle;  I don't know your modeling limitations or if this would add any value other than coolness.  Optimization has gotten better since the last build.  Worth playing with 3 or four real people.

      9.5

      Pros:

      Tons of crazy new stuff
      Very nice fence-building mechanic
      Pretty tough, and lots of different ways to play
      
      

      Cons:

      Some minor bugs still
      Takes awhile to learn what everything does
      

      Conclusion:

      Wow, this is definitely a unique one. There's a ridiculous amount of totally new content stuff here, so I'll just gloss over my favorite parts. 
      
      First, the fence-building mechanic is really really nice. You don't place each bit individually, you just place the first piece of fence, then buy extensions which you can rotate at 45 degree angles to get what you want, and buy extensions off of those. Incredibly convenient, although the "buy extension" button a little close to the rotation buttons so you might accidentally buy an extension sometimes.
      
      All the vehicles you buy have neat upgrades, which add functionality and visually upgrade the armor, and it looks awesome.
      
      Auto-turrets are really handy and easy to use, since you can rotate them even after deploying.
      
      The biggest issue I had is that there's just so much new stuff it's a bit overwhelming. It takes a few plays through to get a good idea of what everything does. Definitely read the tutorial board at the spawn point! Amazingly stable map for how much crazy stuff is going on.
      
      This map is best played with 3-4 humans, since bot AI obviously can't interact with this kind of custom content.

      Pros:

      -The money system is neato
      -Wide open area

      Cons:

      -AI is terrible with melee
      -AI keeps getting run over
      -AI doesnt pick up some weapons

      Conclusion:

      Good, but really needs some fixes. Too hard without the AI picking up items.
