+ Ambient
+ Graphics
+ Each item you find is proven useful shortly afterwards (from gas canisters, gattling guns and molotovs)
+ The music bits are very well put (especially at the finale)
+ Custom writings on the wall
+ The Tomb
Cons:
- Lack of open spaces (everyone needs to wield an autoshotgun and the Tanks have no chance to struggle)
- The ending
Conclusion:
Overall, this campaign is one of the best I've ever played on both games. Aside with Night Terror and Silent Hill, it shows how dreadful the Left 4 Dead ambient can be. Everytime I've seen inscriptions such as "DON'T GO HERE", "THIS PLACE IS CURSED" and so on, it gives me the thrills. I really appreciated the amount of time taken to set the story on the whole campaign. When you play the finale, the scenery was incredible. It astonished my mind. I won't give the details to let every single player to experience the same feelings I had.
The major improvement would be the difficulty of the finale : for instance, adding more spawning places for the Infected. The Special ones have no influence and are swept away easily, even on Expert difficulty. As I mentioned on the Cons part, if each member of the squad takes an autoshotgun, things progress way easier.
Valve should host this campaign for Left 4 Dead as they did for Two Evil Eyes.
