I read your campaign description about merging a total of 4 different campaigns together and to be honest, I didn't feel big variation, I just enjoyed your work of making the best use of crap abandoned incomplete maps this way. I can't remember when was the first time I played a map of yours for the first time to hear the customized super unique witch theme music as well as tank music.
Are they partially borrowed from Resident Evil? Even the boomer vomit, spitter goo and smoker's tongue have their own theme music.
Ch1: Introduced the biggest hospital I have ever been and it was long that was passed with 0 Restarts.
Ch2: Got restarted only once and it was shorter than first, but the reason why it was restarted was about the hidden route towards safe room that was covered with wooden planks and no single sign to help and we can see how close I was and when I realized where to go, it was really late.
Ch3: Was successfully passed with 0 Restarts regardless of the multiple witches and tanks fought along the way.
Ch4: The same was there and it was considered the easiest in this campaign. 0 Restarts.
Ch5: It was restarted only once and that was because of the tank trap after I turn on alarm and open the door. The alarm started fake hordes as none came and we could fight that surprise tank in peace out in streets, then moved in peace, but hordes came later and in different waves. When I died, it was a chase from a tank behind and another tank waiting by that van when we get outside. Still, scenarios are different each time as when we went there on next time, no tank was waiting. When I died, I was chased by a group of zombies and 2 tanks and I fell by the last alarm after I started it during fight.
Ch6: I restarted that chapter twice and it was annoying in some way, especially when hordes are just attacking in endless waves after we move out of safe room, why? It was a marathon to safe room and it's clear that this chapter along with finale chapter belong to the same map, Babel - Mikan World. multiple boomers and other specials spawned. I don't know if you got some control or manipulation over them or not. Tank was waiting by the end, but was luckily handled.
Ch7: That chapter is the hardest and I got pissed off in too many ways. It was restarted 15 times, but I miscalculated and put 16 times on the video of that chapter. I made a video of all highlighted important runs that met failure by the end. I shall admit it was my bad too as I didn't realize that when I use the first cannon, zombies will stop spawning from that side of big statue and same goes for the second cannon on the other side, but still, hard and even tank and with spawned once in 2 different attempts so we can imagine how it would be like while fighting all hordes at the same time. Those balls falling from ceiling or off statues were super annoying and funny as 2 bots can get incapacitated if that ball was moving and touched them.
I passed this chapter in 2 different ways because I finally figured out how to do it. And in one of my attempts, I was doing so good, but made one mistake, which was starting the finale earlier while tank was there and bots were all down, then dead. All on Attempts video in the playlist.
I wonder what you do else in such maps like fixing bots navigation issues and maintaining balanced zombie waves besides the availability of more supplies for more balanced runs? Navigation in finale was bad in certain spots. What about hordes? Hordes were insane and I almost quit because they come in multiple waves from the roof from down there and from behind. Did you intentionally make them like that or it's the original author? I want to give 10/10 for your work, but that imbalance really needed to be fixed, especially when someone crazy tries this map in Expert Single Player Mode :D
I do appreciate your work. Your reply to your PM and comment on my "Condition Strandead" are highly appreciated :)
I wish I meet more of your maps, whether created from scratch or mashed x) I follow certain order in playing maps here so more maps are waiting.
I wish you put one of my videos as a guide on your campaign page as a guide for those who want to play your map in Expert Single Player Mode
I wish you are fine and better than the last time you got in touch.
Thank you!!
Thank you, Timelord!
