Pretty good Lego campaign clocking in at around 30 minutes. Map design is solid, but the finale is a little bit small in my opinion, but it works. No complaints, no issues found, worth a play.

Review

I am quite a fan of the aesthetic of this campaign (although not in real life, lol.) But it works really well for L4D2. The map design is pretty good but repetitive, although the campaign makes decent use of verticality, so at least the terrain is quite varied. I noticed some ambient music tracks that were included that really add to the atmosphere of the campaign. It's 40 minutes in length, pretty good one, worth a play.

Review

Extremely high quality campaign. Level of detail matches/supersedes Valve's campaigns. Playtime is around 40 minutes so there's a lot of content here. Highly recommend this one. No issues found.

Review

Rough campaign. The biggest flaw in this campaign has to be the keycard searching on chapter 3. On my first attempt I simply could not find it at all and decided to wait for s10055072 to post a walkthrough. And of course it has to be in the stupidest possible spot. It really doesn't help that the keycard objects are tiny and quite easy to miss. I also remember on my first playthrough getting softlocked on chapter 3 because I accidentally skipped the control room which has the key and switch to open the gate to come back. Despite that I still think it's a decent campaign. It features quite a bit of backtracking to find keycards of course. Playtime is 30-40 minutes so good length.
Map design is fine, but chapter 3 is pretty bad.

Review

Very good campaign. Currently has missing assets and optimisation issues mostly affecting chapter 2 and 3. But other than that plays very well, very enjoyable. I assume the missing assets will be addressed soon after my review. I recommend this one. 40 minutes in length.
Edit: Part 2 is on the workshop which contains the missing assets. It'd be nice if it was uploaded or linked here too.

Review

Pretty bad campaign. First of all - the map design, pretty abysmal. No variation in the terrain, just flat swamps and corn fields. Secondly, due to the abundance of corn fields, it's pretty difficult to find your way, I fully expect other players to get lost in the corn fields like I did. Third, there seems to be a bug on the finale where some of the NPCs are unkillable until a map reset, although I assume this doesn't prevent the finale from being started. Fourth, the radio is pretty easy to miss. I suggest either moving it closer to the supplies or adding a game instructor hint, because it took me forever to find. Fifth, the finale is pretty lame. The infected all come across the bridge in single file, making it pretty trivial.
Although the mapper throws three tanks + horde for the rescue vehicle run, have fun with that.
I would avoid this one, it's pretty rough.

Review

Very challenging campaign and a long one too. I wouldn't recommend playing this campaign with bots. Mainly due to the fact that they seemingly cannot make it past the destructible bridge on chapter 1, and the abundance of ladders without mods will surely get them killed. Also there are walkable areas that trigger special infected spawns on I believe chapter 3 and shortcuts that you won't be able to utilise without Left 4 Bots. The campaigns aesthetics are very barebones, the same repeating texture throughout the entire campaign pretty much lol. My playtime was an hour and 20 minutes, although this will no doubt vary from player to player. 
If you're looking for a challenging campaign and have at least 1 other player, I'd recommend this one.

Review

Pretty bog standard dev texture themed campaign. Works from start to finish, and there's really nothing to comment on. Yet another dev texture campaign if you wanted to play one, nothing notable. 40 minutes of gameplay.

Review

Decent campaign. Good aesthetics and map design. A bit of a shorter one at around 20-30 minutes (although I guess some would say this is typical length for a campaign.) Don't have any complaints. I would suggest the author removes (what I assume is a mandarin character) from the vpk file, as the game will not load vpks with certain characters.

Review

Wow, very impressive campaign. Definitely my favourite modification/inspiration of Dead Center that I've played yet. Very interesting, creative and original map design throughout the entire 50 minutes or so of gameplay. Simply a must-play, fantastic work.

Review

Fun campaign, but currently suffers from flaws that can hinder enjoyment. First of all; the bots. They are very hesitant to pick up a lot of the weapons throughout the campaign I notice, just as an example, they don't pick up any of the weapons or get the ammo on the finale. The second major issue is lack of game instructor hints. It's very easy to get lost in this campaign, so it could seriously benefit from more game instructor hints. And finally a serious bug; the saferoom on chapter 3 does not work, you will have to manually change to map 4 if you want to experience the finale. If these issues get addressed I can bump up my rating to an 8.

The maps themselves are pretty enjoyable though albeit quite lengthy maps, I imagine some people would prefer if the maps were split up into more than just 4 chapters. For reference my playtime was almost an hour and 10 minutes, and there's only 4 chapters lol. If you're a fan of older boomer shooters like Doom the map design will probably feel quite familiar, lots of long corridors and underground bunkers. Not a bad campaign, just needs some fixes and it'll be quite decent.

Review

Pretty good Xen themed campaign. Certainly can be quite challenging due to how many unguarded ledges there are, although on my blind run I only managed to die presumably to some mod I use that causes boomer explosions to push props which caused a full team wipe at the end chapter 3 on the elevator -_-. Pretty fun and challenging campaign typical of Tempest. If you enjoy his other campaigns, you'll like this one. No issues found. Custom music is also pretty dope.

Review

Solid cyberpunk/retro aesthetic campaign clocking in at 25-30 minutes. Pretty easy difficulty-wise as there is plenty of supplies to help you out, maybe a bit too much, but hey, it helps. No issues found, worth a play.

Review

This campaign has some interesting set pieces, but at the end of the day, it's your run-of-the-mill dev texture campaign. So if you're itching for yet another one of those kinds of campaigns, go ahead. No issues found.

Review

Pretty good campaign. This one features more interesting map layouts compared to this authors other work in my opinion; specifically, there are dangerous ledges where the special infected can kill the survivors if they are not careful, which wasn't really a thing in the other campaigns recently published here on Gamemaps. Regardless it features the minimalist aesthetic and clocks in at around 30 minutes. Not bad. No issues found.

Review

Decent campaign. Don't really have much to comment on, the aesthetic isn't much to write home about. The map design is pretty good though, don't really have any complaints. No issues found. Playtime was 20 minutes.

Review

Decent campaign. Don't really have much to comment on, the aesthetic isn't much to write home about. The map design is pretty good though, don't really have any complains. No issues found. Probably would only recommend this one to custom campaign enthusiasts as this probably doesn't offer a whole lot of casual players. I'm assuming the playtime is around 30 minutes (I restarted a few times, so I don't know for sure.)

Review

Solid campaign, decent aesthetics, well designed, 30 minutes in length. Worth a play if you're looking to kill time. No issues found.

Review

It's alright, but has a lot of issues. The directionality is quite confusing, the maps are open-ended but I wouldn't really recommend exploration, as a lot of those areas tend to have quite a lack of detail (sometimes you can just see outside of the map into the void.) The chapter 1 saferoom placement I thought was quite strange, it didn't take me too long to find it, but I just assumed the upstairs of the building it was in would just have supplies so I skipped over it. The detailing is all over the place; some areas look good and others terrible (like floating props or just empty rooms.) The campaign is quite long, my game crashed on the chapter 3-4 map transition so I didn't get an accurate playtime, probably around an hour if I had to guess. I didn't even really get The Parish vibes from this campaign apart from the finale, the original campaign is just much better.

The filesize seriously does not justify the download, it's a whopping 4GB uncompressed, which is completely absurd in my opinion. (For reference/comparison the Chernobyl campaign is somehow only 2.6GB.) Honestly I wouldn't really recommend this campaign to others despite my rating (probably being too generous) I did enjoy playing it, but its design is quite amateur and filesize seriously bloated. I would avoid this one.

Review

Good ole Dead Center but mirrored. It's not 100% accurate, for example; the staircases are missing their railings, which is most notable on the Dead Center finale, could theoretically make it easier for the infected to kill the survivors if they happen to get unlucky. Most campaign-specific survivor dialogue is absent which is pretty typical with modified official maps, but I don't mind. Very trippy when you're so used to the original, but I managed to adjust lol.

Review

Pretty good campaign. Features a few long holdout sections, reminiscent of Buried Deep, although not as difficult. 40 minutes in length, so quite long, and a pretty cool finale arena in my opinion. Great pacing, good map design... Yeah I definitely recommend this one. No issues on my end.

Review

Extremely short campaign, can be beaten in 1 minute if you know where to go. I'm not sure how the author intends to expand upon this, but I am intrigued. Would not recommend currently due to its length.

Review

Decent campaign, clocking in at 25 minutes for me. Nothing too crazy about this one, a pretty standard L4D experience, but is polished and plays well. No issues found.

Review

Pretty good/decent campaign. The cutscenes don't really fit with L4Ds gameplay, but they aren't overtly long. I think the stats crawl also doesn't show any statistics, although I skipped before it could scroll too far so i didn't check to see if the kills were counted or not, but item usage was all 0s.  The consoles you activate at the very beginning of the finale seem to have missing texture boxes around them before pressing them. The campaigns gameplay is alright, but nothing too much to write home about.  Worth a try I would say. Gameplay was about 45 minutes for me.

Review

Very fun campaign. Bit of a biased review as I've played this one before and am familiar with the layout. For first-timers no doubt this campaign will probably be quite confusing with the directionality. The campaigns aesthetics are also quite barebones with a lot of empty area, but this personally doesn't bother me. The gameplay is pretty much perfect if you don't mind being forced to search around occasionally on your first playthrough. You can use the special infected spawns to guide your way anyways if you get lost [in linz.] Took me 40 minutes to beat. My guestimate is that it would take a first timer around an hour.

Review

Decent campaign. A bit long-winded at times for sure though, took me just under an hour to finish. Only issue I encountered was the zombies not spawning very much on chapter 4, there might be a problem with the navmesh. Still worth a play though for sure.

Review

Alright, now the finale works lol. Pretty good campaign. Shorter one at around 20-30 minutes in length, but I do like what the author did with the two chapters. Chapter 1 is a pretty long gauntlet (or onslaught) to the end, whilst the finale has an additional wave as well as an increased special infected cap I believe, and an interesting gimmick alongside that, I won't spoil, although the gimmick in question doesn't really add to the difficulty imo. Regarding issues, the bots also did not want to follow me up to the "glow area" (idk what to call it,) so your only option as humans is to let them perish or finish them off, which... is somewhat fitting considering what happens, but regardless would be nice if this was addressed.

Review

Perfect campaign. An all-time classic that many people are fond of and still play to this very day. Zero flaws whatsoever, perfect from beginning to end. A must play.

Review

Pretty good campaign. Difficulty-wise the campaign can definitely be quite challenging on higher difficulties. Playing with bots is not really recommended due to chapter 3 as they will walk in the electric water and get themselves killed most of the time (oh and they like to shoot the explosive barrels, yippee.) There were certainly quite a few beginner traps on this campaign that you will most likely get caught off guard by lol, that happened to me a few times. The panic event on chapter 2 is creative albeit annoying (Glubtastic flashbacks.) The visuals are gorgeous without question, very much a fan. The rest of the campaign is solid, had quite a bit of fun. Worth playing with human players, but be warned, quite difficult. My playtime was 35 minutes with 1 restart.

Review

Very solid campaign. Love the aesthetics, they give the campaign quite a unique feeling. Map design is great, going through back-alleys, underground train/railway stations, and in the heart of London itself. The finale can be pretty brutal as the hordes are non-stop unlike vanilla, so make sure you prepare before you pump the gas. There is an insta-kill trap on the first chapter which is pretty cheeky, but it isn't too far into the chapter at least. My play-time was an hour. No issues found. Worth a play.

Review

A little bit of a repetitive campaign, but plays pretty well. Took me an hour to beat, as it's 8 chapters in length. Regarding the difficulty; I actually didn't find it challenging at all. There's plenty of supplies and space to move around, so I breezed through it with the bots. The campaign would definitely benefit from an art pass, I've played quite a number of dev texture campaigns at this point, so it's starting to get a bit stale. In conclusion, it's your typical dev texture campaign with maybe a bit of challenge for some players as the campaign likes to throw 2 or more tanks at you sometimes (but again; plenty of supplies and space to move around.) Quite repetitive though. No issues found.

Review

Decent campaign, but quite challenging due to the increased special infected spawn rate. In my opinion, it should definitely be tuned down a bit, as it currently stands it is absurdly frequent and really slows the pacing down dramatically. The map design is interesting as for most of the campaign you are traversing dangerous cliff sides, so be wary of chargers and smokers. I personally enjoyed it and restarted once due to being a bit careless. If you're looking for quite a challenging campaign, I'd recommend it. My playtime was 35 minutes, probably varies quite a bit with a campaign like this though. No issues found, but uh, maybe turn down the spawn rate a bit.

Review

Pretty good campaign. Reminiscent of Crash Course, as there are two very long chapters, with the finale being a gauntlet. Don't really have anything to say, the visuals are quite nice; urban China. Didn't find any issues on my end. Worth a play! My play session lasted 40 minutes.

Review

Not a great campaign. Generally amateur mapping; chapter 1 is literally just a long ass spiral staircase (I guess you could call it as such.) Chapter 2 reminds me of Laberinferno if anyone else has ever played that campaign before. The finale is extended by a fair bit (probably two more waves than there normally is,) and if you don't know where the rescue arrives you are screwed. I would recommend the author to provide some kind of hint or make it more obvious where the rescue arrives. My team was holding out by the radio so we ended up wiping on our first attempt trying to figure out where to go.

Took me around 30-35 minutes to finish, not really recommended as there are better, more enjoyable campaigns that you could be playing in my opinion. This ones a pass for me.

Review

Broken campaign, finale is impossible to start, no matter how close you are to the radio, the game instructor always says "Wait for everyone to be ready first." The map design and aesthetics  are rather amateur (you can literally go to the edge of the map on chapter 1.) I used commands to start the finale, which worked fine at that point. Took me 17 minutes, quite short. Without commands to force start the finale, you're looking at about around 10 minutes of gameplay. Even if the finale was fixed this campaign is not worth playing, sorry.

Review

Yeaah, I'm just gonna pre-emptively give this one a 10. As the mapper says, a very unique theme, although I think Illogic City of The Dead and I guess the first Glubtastic beat you to the punch with inverted map geometry. That being said, this campaign purely focuses on that concept, and makes an absolutely crazy/insane campaign out of it. This campaign will most likely be quite brutal on your first run-through. Took me an hour to complete, although I did struggle quite a bit, especially on chapter 2 (had a restart as I couldn't figure out how to acquire the saw, but in restrospect it was quite obvious lol. The game instructor hint might need some grammar correction.) Bear in mind I was playing on normal difficulty but with a bot improvement plugin so they aren't completely brain-dead.

Does it get easier on subsequent playthroughs? Don't know yet, I'll eventfully get into a public lobby I'm sure, and I'd imagine having actual humans helps a lot (The bots tend to fall off, get stuck, and hang a lot.) With all that being said I'd definitely recommend this campaign if you're looking for a truly unique experience. At the time of writing, the campaign is not finished, currently at three chapters in length. Just be warned, this campaign is quite challenging.

Review

Meh. To be honest, I'm not sure why the elevator ending is even a thing. It makes the map trivially easy and can be beaten in less than 10 minutes. The gauntlet route was more interesting, but I don't know how you're supposed to open the door behind the vent, I tried for a while but couldn't figure it out, so I used noclip. My suggestion to the author is to remove the elevator ending or maybe turn it into a holdout finale (i.e. flesh it out a bit more.) I have no idea why the author tagged this as expert difficulty, even the gauntlet ending is far too easy for that tag. I have a feeling you're not supposed to be able to kill the beholder from the opposite side of the fence but I have no idea since I couldn't figure out how to access that room legitimately anyways.

Not worth playing in its current state. If it gets a bit more fleshed out/polished I'll raise my rating.

Review

Whew boy, have not played a campaign this bad in quite some time. The author's screenshots do a pretty good job on showing you what to expect in this campaign: Huge, open, completely empty, bland, flat landscapes. Alongside this, if you're playing with bots expect them to get stuck on the ladders if you rush ahead, they need babysitting to make it down them, and even then, it's not guaranteed. Chapter 3 has terrible optimization and I was getting 20FPS(!!!) on my 1050ti (old card I know) which is laughable considering the quality of the map, alongside an error I've never seen before: "overflowed CClientRenderablesList group 1." 

The finale is dreadfully boring, with all commons and specials pouring in single file from around the corner, allowing you to gun them down with the conveniently placed minigun with ease, with the only challenge being the triple tank wave (Yes this campaign has a slightly extended finale, ugh..) 
On top of all this, for some ungodly reason the campaign is 1.2GB despite containing the ugliest visuals possible, most be those random Pokémon models I was seeing sometimes.
Needless to say, I deleted this campaign without a second thought after finishing it (took about an hour.) Absolutely not worth your time, avoid at all costs.

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention: There are complete BS insta-death pits throughout the campaign. You won't know where they are without trial and error, but yet another annoyance to deal with.

Review

Very short campaign at about 10 minutes. Whilst I do like the map design and aesthetics, it's just too short. I don't need to repeat what the author said about the bots in the description. I attached a screenshot if you want to bother preventing fall damage, but at this stage most people are using some sort of script to prevent bot ladder deaths.

Review

Great campaign. Love the aesthetic. Maps are well paced and campaign length is about 45ish minutes, although probably varies quite a bit. The only chapter I wasn't a huge fan of was chapter 4 simply due to the fact that I easily miss key items, but I was playing with realism glows which certainly didn't help lol. Really fantastic campaign overall though with interesting gimmicks. I think I prefer this one over its sequel personally, more traditional gameplay and less boss fights.

Review

Whilst a visually impressive campaign (the new assets are very nice) the campaign itself is pretty short, I beat it in 20 minutes (somehow managed to take 0 damage as well lol.) Chapter 1 is especially short; being 3-4 minutes long (most of it is holding out for the elevator to end the chapter.) Also, good luck running this campaign with mods, my game presumably ran out of memory due to the custom assets this campaign has, which isn't the author's fault, but I did have to disable my mods to run the campaign. One more thing; reduce the volume of the custom music please, it is *really* loud and makes it difficult to hear what the survivors are saying. (Although it is epic, I'll admit)

Despite my grievances, the campaign is solid but short. The unique aesthetic obviously sets it apart from other campaigns. Only wish it was longer!

Review

An alright campaign. Fairly generic campaign overall with a "The Sacrifice" type finale. Also fairly short at around 20 minutes (took me 25 as I had to figure out what I was doing on the finale.) Not bad, probably a one-off for most people though. No issues found.

Review

Bit of a flawed campaign I have to say. First of all, I think it would help a lot of the Half-Life buttons had highlights on them, as it's pretty damn easy to miss them, (from my experience, at least) which is quite annoying. Chapter 4 is an absolute nightmare with bots, honestly borderline unplayable. The bots cannot avoid the acid, or the tram tracks electricity. They may very well shoot the explosive barrels outside as well. The random climbable vent on the finale makes absolutely no sense, seriously, how was I supposed to know where to go here? (I'd recommend the author puts arrows at this point.) Despite those criticisms... the campaign is alright. It uses original Half-Life assets but doesn't copy-paste the layouts from the game, it's seemingly original design. The campaign lasted over an hour for me, so make sure you have the time.

In conclusion, this campaign is probably more enjoyable with friends rather than bots due to chapter 4, unless you want to just skip it if playing alone. It would be nice if the author made it so the bots cannot take damage from the environment some how on chapter 4.

Review

Excellent campaign. Well paced, quite long, (my playthrough lasted around 45 minutes) and quality-wise feels exactly like a Valve campaign. No issues found, great work.

Review

Pretty good campaign. Despite the minimalist details, the campaign is well paced, fun and enjoyable. Recommended, no issues found.

Review

The map is fine, but yeah, not sure why you'd even bother making it support campaign mode when it's clearly made for survival. It's very easy in campaign mode due to it being very wide open and I beat it in under 10 minutes. Not really worth playing, sorry.

Review

Quite an underwhelming campaign in my opinion. The campaign contains two very large open maps, so don't be surprised if you end up becoming lost, although according to the description there was game instructor hints added to the campaign so it shouldn't be as bad as before. There are apparently two extra maps that have a different endings as opposed to the regular holdout finale. Can't really recommend this one, it's quite dull and boring. My playtime lasted over 30 minutes. No issues found.

Review

Extremely impressive campaign that apparently took 2 years of work, and it shows! The campaign takes quite a while to finish; my play session lasted 1 hour and 40 minutes. There are 9 maps in total, and generally speaking the layouts are quite confusing and claustrophobic, although the campaign starts to open up at chapter 7. There are some really creative panic events/mini puzzles that I haven't seen in any other campaign, I won't spoil them here. My only complaint about this campaign is that the navmesh is quite rough, with survivor bots getting stuck and teleporting quite frequently, as well as the special infected getting stuck. But I'm absolutely willing to over-look that for the sheer passion, effort and creativity put into this campaign.

One of the most impressive campaigns I've ever played. Bravo.

Review

Not bad at all. This campaign is somewhat unique, containing what is essentially a finale on all three chapters, although personally I found them to be quite easy defficulty-wise, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The map design is good and well detailed. Also didn't find any issues on my end. Not bad, recommend people giving it a go. My playtime was about 40 minutes.

Review

Poorly balanced campaign overall, which led to quite an unenjoyable experience. The infected spam is a bit much during the panic events, it's easy to get overwhelmed which lead to a lot of frustration. The map design is not amazing and can be quite barebones/rough looking. Chapter 2 features an annoying, pointless backtrack from the end of the map to the very beginning. The worst thing about this campaign for me is that the bots seem to not like to pick up items on this campaign. I'm not sure what causes this as I'm not a mapper, but this flaw makes the bots next to useless, and playing solo even worse. For some reason the generator you have to fill on the finale doesn't have an opening, making it unclear where exactly you're supposed to pour the gas into, which caused unnecessary frustration as you have to do this during/after the 2nd tank wave. Playtime is around 1 hour.

Overall a very flawed campaign, featuring barebones aesthetics and very flawed/unbalanced gameplay. Avoid this one.

Review

Yeah sorry this one's a miss for me. Two glorified survival maps to play, and well it gets repetitive rather quickly. Maybe this campaign would've been better suited as a survival map with progressing gameplay like Helm's Deep. Playtime was 30 minutes, most of it spent just barricading the same few spots over and over. Quite boring, avoid this one.

Review

Fantastic campaign, honestly probably deserves to be considered amongst the best. I will say it gets carried hard by the Insurgency assets as I don't think I've played a middle-eastern themed L4D2 campaign before, so this is a first. It's a bit on the longer side; my playtime lasted over an hour and 10 minutes, but it's absolutely worth playing. Campaign is well paced, well balanced and provides a great challenge as well. Fantastic work, well done to the authors. No issues found on my end.

Review

Cute map. I have actually watched the film in question and would highly recommend it to fans of horror, even if you don't speak Russian. The map is a good adaptation of the film, well the church segments of the film. Playtime for me was just over 15 minutes, recommended as a one-off. No issues encountered.

Review

Extremely bizarre campaign aesthetics-wise (and that finale is something else...), but still enjoyable nonetheless. My server consistently crashes when trying to pick up the key-card on chapter 2, I'm assuming this is just a mod conflict so I'm not gonna hold it against the author (ended up using noclip). The bots seem to struggle to get out of the elevator shaft on chapter 2, I'm assuming they just fall to their death without mods, I have a mod installed that prevents bot ladder deaths. Also there seems to be a bug that breaks the finale if you activate it before all the survivors are over the fence, forcing a restart. There is an increased special infected limit and quite a lot of boss spawns per map, but despite that I didn't find the campaign any more challenging than any other campaign.

I'd say give this campaign a shot, personally I don't find the aesthetics appealing but that's probably just a me thing, the weird anime mixed with fake modern/neo Rome is extremely bizarre to me, doesn't feel like this campaign has a consistent theme, I personally enjoyed your desert themed campaign more. Took me 50ish minutes to beat.

Review

Pretty average campaign overall, and wayyyyy too easy. So first of all; it can be rather confusing on where to go. Some things that are normally not climbable are in this campaign, which will no doubt throw off players. I think it's especially bad at the beginning of chapter 2, where you're supposed to climb into a random vent, which doesn't even have a ladder in front of it. The specials spawning from there gave me the hint I needed though as specials always spawn ahead of you with the exception of smokers. Regarding the difficulty, the over-abundance of health kits make this campaign far too easy to the point where it started feeling like every other corner I turned, there was a health pack. Chapter 2 is poorly optimised and causes high ping.

Design-wise, the campaign is rather generic and empty feeling. It's apparently a tower, I'm assuming those sky-rise type shopping buildings you see in China. There's quite a lot of missing textures on this campaign, and for some reason the file size of this campaign is abnormally large despite the lack of custom assets for the most part. The finale is also extremely underwhelming as it's not even set up to be a gauntlet, so it just plays like any other map, but there is seemingly a death timer if you don't get into the rescue vehicle, which the bots seem to struggle or not bother to get into, which is not good. My playtime lasted above 50 minutes, so it's a bit on the longer side.

The author should also consider doing away with the unbreakable doors abundant in this campaign, the infected constantly get stuck behind these doors which again, lowers the difficulty quite considerably. Overall a rather poorly-designed and thought out campaign, would not recommend this one.

Review

Pretty good campaign. Feels similar in a lot of ways to Buried Deep; the extremely long chapters and the super long holdout sections. Also, the aesthetics are quite similar as well. I can already tell from my casual run that this campaign would be a nightmare on expert and require proper strategy with human players. My playtime was over 1 hour and 30 minutes, so more or less double if not triple the length of a normal campaign. Whilst the campaign provides good, challenging gameplay, I'm still a bit mixed on these types of long, drawn out campaigns with these over-the-top holdout sections. It's certainly a change of pace from a typical campaign, but if I was looking to just get a few quick games in, this campaign would be a slow burn for sure.

In conclusion, if you're a more experienced player (or players) looking for a challenge, highly recommend this campaign. If you're more of a casual player, prepare for a challenge. No issues/bugs/glitches encountered on my end.

Review

Very arbitrary campaign. Like the first one, it's just a small finale map and I beat it in 5 minutes. Absolutely not worth playing, got the amazing kill count of 10 total infected whilst the bots did the rest of the work for me lol.

Review

Decent campaign. Perhaps not the most polished campaign overall, it's certainly no Warcelona or Cambalache. Despite being set in Moscow, didn't really get Russian vibes from the campaign, kinda just felt like any other Source engine city map tbh. As for issues; the infected seem to spawn very close to the survivors on chapter 1, especially apparent when waiting for the train to arrive. And lastly, tanks can get stuck inside of a store in the finale, making for an easy kill for the survivors. Overall not that challenging of a campaign as it's quite open, but not exactly a pushover either, it's well balanced. Maybe worth playing as a one-off, but not really enough to keep me coming back.

Review

For a one chapter campaign it's ok, but not really worth playing. My playtime lasted 10 minutes and there's no proper finale which is an odd choice. Maybe this campaign (or map) would've worked better as a gauntlet as soon as you left the safe area, I think that would've made way more sense for a map like this.

Review

I cannot recommend this campaign in its current state. First of all; there is a softlock on chapter 2 with the scavenge event. I climbed a ladder out of curiosity and jumped down into a sealed off area, where I got myself stuck, there was no way to progress or to return back outside so I was forced to restart. Chapter 4 consistently crashes for me just after the nurse hallway. Not sure if this is a map issue, high graphics related or a mod conflict. The Pyramid Head model is missing textures. The environmental design of the campaign is extremely rough with floating objects and clipping issues everywhere. All that being said I do like the Silent Hill aesthetic from chapter 3 onwards, and the gameplay is more or less fine, there's no balancing issues. If this campaign receives some polish and hopefully a fix for the crash and softlock, I'll consider raising my rating.

Review

Pretty decent campaign overall. Playtime is about 30-40 minutes. Regarding what should be fixed/changed; on chapter 1, for some reason my FOV was somewhat zoomed in and I was in a weird "skidding" state where I couldn't hear my footsteps. On chapter 2 I would make the button pressing a gauntlet event rather than a simple panic event, as it's pretty easy otherwise. Also the random unclimbable ladders everywhere are pretty strange, but it's whatever. Otherwise I didn't have any issues with the campaign, I'd say it's worth a play, not bad.

Review

Not great. Chapter 1 is just a very long staircase all the way to the saferoom. Chapter 2 is decent but fairly short. And the finale is just your typical holdout finale, pretty easy. Beat this one in 15 minutes, not really worth playing.

Review

Sorry, this campaign doesn't really do it for me. I can see it's your first attempt and it's a decent effort, but ultimately I think this campaign's length and the lack of a proper finale definitely let it down. The hospital interiors also feel pretty copy-pasted and empty imo. I think I finished it in around 20 minutes. Sorry, cannot recommend this campaign.

Review

I don't really have much to say about this one, I like the attention to detail and the various changes made to the environment and the layouts and whatnot. The navmesh could be improved a bit, I had a tank get stuck on the chapter 1 kitchen wall and another tank suicide in the cemetery (we were on the bridge.) I think it's worth taking a look at, but don't expect a challenge as this is far easier than The Parish normally is.

Review

Well i was wondering when somebody would make a L4D campaign out of the HL2 beta maps, and here we are, the cut Air Exchange chapter. The puzzles that were intended for this chapter are absent in this L4D2 port, that being the shock trap and the vent jumps or whatever you'd like to call them. I think the campaign could definitely benefit from a soundscape, (I'd highly recommend the beta Citadel soundscape, I think it would work very well in the interior sections.) as it does feel a bit empty and lifeless just like the HL2 beta maps lol. The mapping is definitely a product of it's time, very blocky and doesn't look that great by todays standards, but the two maps the campaign comes with are pretty enjoyable albeit can certainly be confusing. Thankfully the author was courteous enough to include arrows almost everywhere, so getting lost shouldn't happen too much. The finale's a good idea, but a bit underwhelming as it doesn't actually function like a gauntlet finale, although I completely understand that it wouldn't really be possible to set a gauntlet finale up since you have to backtrack (at the very least there'd be no specials or random hordes until it starts.)

For what the author had to work with it's a good attempt, as much as I like the idea of the HL2 Beta, the maps themselves are pretty bad ngl. I would not recommend playing this with bots, they will probably be quite an inconvenience as there's a lot of ladders and a few elevators. I'd recommend giving it a try with humans, you can't really go wrong with playing this, just don't expect something phenomenal.

Review

Phenomenal campaign. Much like the other Lockdown campaigns, it's very close-quarters and very claustrophobic. It's also quite a difficult and long campaign, clocking in at over an hour of playtime for me. The difficulty really stems from the tank+panic event combos that this campaign probably uses a bit too liberally to be honest. Personally I'd prefer less of that and more director controlled boss spawns, but maybe people disagree. Absolutely loved the level design of the campaign and the length. I'm not sure which Lockdown campaign is my favourite, I think I love them all to be honest. Great work author! Recommend this campaign if you're looking for a challenge. Also I had issues with the bots not picking up items on the chapter 4 and 5 saferooms respectively. Might wanna be looked into, I haven't had that issue in a long time on a custom campaign.

Review

Awesome campaign. Really cool to see that you managed to get scavenge working in L4D1 lmao, I thought it would just be a holdout finale, I was taken by surprise. Highly recommend this classic campaign, I feel like a broken record saying this, but; Valve/official levels of quality for sure. Well paced, a bit longer than official campaigns, great mapping - the whole lot, highly recommended.

Review

Such a classic and perfect campaign. It stays true to the traditional L4D formula whilst delivering some interesting new setpieces. The authors worked hard on this campaign, and it shows, extremely polished and Valve/official quality campaign. A must play, especially for the first game.

Review

Decent campaign. Could use some touch-up on the navmesh for sure, it's pretty janky and one of my bots got stuck trying to nav to the rescue vehicle, had to teleport him. Another suggestion (for this 15 year old campaign) is to add a game instructor hint for the tractor panic event on chapter 4, as I know I got stuck here in the past, and probably many others too, it's pretty hard to notice! Other than that though, it's a pretty fun campaign, I'd imagine it being a bit confusing for a first time player, but I have fun with this one, I'd recommend giving a go.

Review

Perfect campaign. absolute classic. Ngl couldn't be bothered to replay this again as this version specifically got ported to L4D2 and I apparently didn't have much to say. But I remember it pretty well, and I believe the gauntlet in the L4D2 specific version will be a holdout finale in this version of the campaign. I think everything else is mostly the same though, so yeah. It's Valve quality for sure, and the L4D2 version even got hosted on their servers for a short time, pretty cool. Well balanced, well paced and good length too, bit longer than a Valve campaign iirc. Highly recommended.

Review

Yeah, skip this. I'll at least give it a 3 for being beatable, but it's just a tiny enclosed swamp area, finale map, can be beaten in under 10 minutes.  Worth noting that the campaign is only a measly 8.5mb in size :P. Also... there's god spots on the towers if you stand on the railings.

Review

I was very intrigued when I saw this, and yeah, it's a really cool idea for Blood Harvest. Clearly a lot of effort and attention to detail was done for this map, and I do really like it, despite it being short at about 20ish minutes. I was also surprised to see there was no optimization issues, I read the description, so I see a sacrifice had to be made, but it doesn't really detriment the map in any way tbh. I recommend people give this one a try, it's pretty cool!

Review

Great campaign, also quite the classic. Some issues; encountered; the bots refused to follow me just around the chapter 3 panic event, no idea why. Oh and another issue I encountered was that one of the tanks on the finale got stuck which forced me to kick him (he wouldn't suicide for some reason.) And finally, a more annoying one is the "fall cams" are kinda borked on the finale, you can trigger them just by jumping down the ladder to be a bit faster and then your camera is permamently locked forcing you to return to lobby. Other than that, it's a pretty unique campaign and I think it still deserves a 9, set entirely on a tanker/oil rig. Average runtime, about 20-30 minutes usually, maybe a bit longer. Definitely recommend this one, very cool campaign.

Review

Certified hood classic. One of the best custom campaigns for the first Left 4 Dead without a doubt. Played the many different versions of this many many times in the second game, nice to play it for the first one :P. If you haven't played this.. play it, seriously, it's great. That is all.

Review

Yeah, pretty bad campaign. Tons of boss spawns (some not handled by the director btw, put there by the map author) and also a bunch of forced common spawns. The biggest issue on this campaign is the god-awful navmesh, honestly it's not good enough to be released, there's a bunch of areas with no navmesh at all, like rescue closets so the bots can't move from them. I mean other than that... it's alright, but the mapping can certainly be quite rough and barren. Also, some saferoom transitions aren't perfect so the items will be missing when you spawn in from a transition. I'd skip this one, there's far better campaigns that you can play.

Review

Very long campaign, clocked in at an hour for me! Also can be a little bit unbalanced, especially at the beginning as a tank spawned before we even got any guns, (and we also got a tank and super long horde combo at the parking area) but he can be cheesed pretty easily if you stand on the downed plane as he can't reach you there. The campaign itself is pretty enjoyable though, probably not for inexperienced players as this campaign doesn't really tell you where to go, so you kinda have to rely on your own directional skills and where the director spawns the specials. I had a lot of fun with this one though, despite chapter 1 having too many boss spawns imo, but otherwise a solid, lengthy and challenging campaign, recommended.

Review

Classic campaign, perfectly adapted for L4D. This campaign is simply a must-play, highly recommended! No issues found!

Review

Pretty decent campaign. Campaign gives off very rural America vibes. The maps are extremely flat and very open-ended. idk if people will be turned off by that or not, but I think it's pretty cool. The finale is pretty unique, I won't spoil it, but hey, it's something a little extra tacked on to make it a bit more interesting. Fairly lengthy campaign overall, probably a bit longer than an official campaign. (I forgot to check my playtime)

Review

I know this campaign is not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm still very fond of this campaign, even if it is quite rough in a lot o respects. The mapping in particular looks very amateur, but the level layouts themselves are pretty cool, the verticality is spectacular in this campaign, and no other campaign has managed to sell that feeling of verticality for me other than this one. I would definitely recommend people at least try this campaign, it is a lot of fun with friends especially, the bots tend to not do well on this campaign, but you can definitely manage fine on solo if you're competent enough. Probably still a favourite of mine.

Review

Pretty solid campaign, haven't played this one in ages, so it was nice to refresh my memory. Nothing too spectacular about this campaign but it's certainly competent. Average length, lasted about 30 minutes for me. Only issue I encountered was the bots teleporting outside o the ending saferoom on chapter 2 so I had to kill them off to progress to chapter 3.

Review

Campaign is honestly hella fun. The maps have been re-worked great to suit L4D. You start from trainstation and finish when you get the airboat in HL2. Campaign lasted 50+ minutes for me, so it's quite lengthy. The finale is a little bit scuffed as the infected spawn really far away and one of the tank got stuck on my playthrough, so I had to console him out of his misery. The rush to the rescue is pretty ingenious, I was expecting the airboat to show up but I was taken by surprise when we had to sprint to the truck, that was awesome. Definitely recommend if you know how to get the HL2 assets.

Review

Solid campaign, no issues found and is your typical traditional-styled campaign.

Review

Would be a great campaign, however this version, compared to the L4D2 version, seems to have a pretty borked and unfinished finale. I looked around for the generator but just couldn't find it, so i had to use noclip to start the finale. I checked a playthrough on YouTube just to be sure, and he had the exact same problem. The bots do not know how to nav to the rescue vehicle either, so you have to leave them for dead. You also do not teleport after entering the rescue vehicle, but you seem to be invulnerable at least. The credits stats are broken so everything displays as 0. It's a shame, because the rest of the campaign works flawlessly and is a lot of fun, pretty silly that the author couldn't make the finishing touches, like the L4D2 version.

Review

I think this campaign uses L4D2 textures, correct me if I'm wrong, but whatever the case, it definitely helps destinguish it from No Mercy asset campaign #69. Unfortunately this campaign was abandoned for L4D1 in favour of finishing the L4D2 version, so there's only two chapters. It plays well though, even though the fire is kinda bs on the first chapter, but whatever.

Review

Yep, played this campaign plenty of times before on L4D2, pretty much the same here, very solid campaign. It's a typical urban map using more or less only No Mercy assets, so it's very familiar. You know exactly what to expect with this one.

Review

Pretty decent campaign. This one has never been ported to L4D2 before, so this was my first time playing it. There's some very minor puzzle solving on this campaign, but I wouldn't be surprised if this stumps some players. I think the author definitely tried to make his campaign stand out and feel unique compared to other campaigns, and whilst I applaud the effort, it seems like other players didn't enjoy this campaign. The rescue vehicle is hilarious, I loved it. Honestly peeps, give this one a go, may not be your cup of tea and that's fine.

Review

Great campaign! Don't really have anything to complain about. Plays pretty well and average length, worth a play!

Review

It's an alright campaign. The mapping is pretty rough and amateurish, and I managed to get stuck on some weird clipping on chapter 1 and had to noclip out. There's a bunch of witches at the end of chapter 2 for some reason, and 1 or 2 tanks I don't quite remember. In conclusion, quite an amateur campaign that's not really worth playing.

Review

Decent campaign. Uses dev textures so it's not much to look at. The layouts are competent though. You can give this one a pass to be honest, it doesn't really offer much, but hey, at least it works from start to finish.

Review

Classic custom campaign, still holds up to this day imo, plays like a dream. Back in the day when I first played this I used to get stuck on chapter 4, as I didn't know you had to shoot the gas cans in the room with the car to cause the explosion. A game instructor hint would've helped there, but I guess it is rather obvious. Either way, highly recommend giving this one a go. Could use a bit more ammo or guns, but the campaign is easy enough anyways. A minor issue on chapter 4, when the elevator despawns; it's done a bit too early and the survivors take some damage as a result.

Review

Awful campaign. Campaign could seriously benefit from game instructor hints, because the buttons tend to be hard to notice. Campaign is filled with insta-kill traps which are extremely unfair. When playing on the finale, you should probably set the gore level to low to avoid lag/crashes, the physics are weird on the boat. Navmesh is barely functional. Avoid.

Review

Campaign is alright. Could do away with the troll tank spawns, just unnecessary, other reviewers might be less forgiving than I am in this case lol. The maps themselves... chapter 1 will most likely be very confusing on your first playthrough, as you're not given too much direction (although I imagine if you've played Payday (2) before then it won't be a problem.) Chapter 2 is a typical scavenge map with a lot of waiting involved. Chapter 3 is a pretty fun and unique one, my favourite of the bunch (I won't spoil it.) The finale is alright, typical holdout.
I imagine this campaign will be rather annoying on higher difficulties as there are two troll tank spawns (I seriously don't know why they're here, maybe something similar happens in Payday? idk.) I was gonna give it a 5, but I enjoyed myself so I'm being generous. I'd say give this campaign a go, but not on expert, at least on your first playthrough, but hey, I know how many masochists there are, and this is far from the most challenging campaign, so, yeah.

Review

Pretty good campaign. The only real stinker was the finale. It has optimization issues (high ping) which probably can't be helped because it's a custom boss fight, but it makes it very annoying to play as most of my shots didn't register at all. The finale could also definitely benefit from some music, it is eerily quiet when it clearly shouldn't be lol (EDIT: Seems like sometimes the custom music triggers don't play for all players, no idea why.) The rest of the campaign though is really good. Great aesthetics and a few boss fights, which are... jokes to be honest, but it's Left 4 Dead 2, so it's fine, it didn't bother me, they weren't grossly overturned or anything, really easy. 
Yeah, I'd definitely recommend giving this one a go. If I recall correctly, I was turned off the first one because it had some annoying puzzles that I didn't want to deal with, but this one's puzzles are pretty simple. If you give up on the finale I don't blame ya, it's probably a lot easier with a full team of humans though, as the bots do not help with the bosses.

Review

Personally not really a fan of this campaign; really it's because of how drawn out the maps are, and I personally feel this campaign doesn't really do anything new or special, so it led to a rather generic and forgettable experience in my opinion. I see that as of this review that it's in beta, I am not sure if this means new maps will be added or if the campaign will get a re-design or not, either way this is my opinion on the campaign for the time being. Not really worth playing, sorry.

Review

Very mediocre campaign. The maps are very short and poorly designed. You can actually die after entering the rescue vehicle, as the survivors don't teleport to a god spot, so you'd have to probably save a bile or something if you're playing on expert (if there are even any in this campaign.) Would not recommend playing this campaign.

Review

Too short! That's all I gotta say. As a finale map, it's very bland and generic. If you can believe it, this isn't the worst campaign I've ever played, mainly troll campaigns are worse than this but yeah, this one still is not worth playing.

Review

Well, this campaign is certainly a unique experience. For me this campaign is definitely what I'd consider a one-and-done which isn't to knock the campaign, but personally I don't think this one has any replay value. That being said, I'd still recommend people give it a go even though it isn't your typical traditional-styled campaign, it's still an interesting experience. Lasts about 20-40 minutes. No issues found.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Pretty fun and well designed campaign. Can be confusing where to go on your first playthrough, but it's pretty fun to play through after you get used to the layout. It's fairly challenging but doesn't push it, it's very do-able. The aesthetics are on-point, making your way through Chinese suburbia.

Review

It's an alright campaign. Unfortunately the first gate panic event on chapter 3 bugged on my first playthrough and was stuck. I waited for around 5 minutes to no avail, but it seemed to work on the second try. The campaign itself is fine, it's honestly nothing special, has very amateur vibes which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but probably a turn-off for some people. It's perfectly playable from beginning to end, so long as you don't get unlucky on chapter 3. I'd say this one is a pass for most people, I wouldn't really recommend it.

Review

Decent, but short campaign. I think the aesthetics are on point and it plays well. It's very well supplied so it's an easy campaign. My playthrough lasted 15 minutes. No issues found.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

It was meh. I guess it's ok considering it's a beta, however there were numerous bugs. On the 2nd map, in the area where you escape on the caravan, when the jets bomb the place, the l4d2 survivors suddenly have the l4d1 survivors voices as well as when you get into the caravan. Also on the finale, when the tank appears, there is so much going on the my ping went from 5 to 100+ and also, the rescue vehicle is non functional on the finale either. However, I liked the map design and the concept is also nice.It was meh. I guess it's ok considering it's a beta, however there were numerous bugs.

Pretty much a perfect campaign. Well paced, good layout, and no issues found on my end, worth a play, lasts 30 minutes on average.

Review

Pretty much a perfect campaign. I appreciate the use of new textures and whatnot to make it feel fresh compared to Half-Life 2. The map layouts are completely re-worked anyways, so it's not just a copy/paste from HL2. Well balanced and a lot of fun, recommended!

Review

Whew, boy, a travesty of a campaign for sure! First of all, it's very short, I forgot to check how long, but probably 10-15 minutes at most. Now, on chapter 1 there's a door that's locked and you're supposed to find out how to unlock it. Well I couldn't, I searched everywhere and did find a switch but pressing it does nothing, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's broken. The finale has a stupid backtrack section right at the beginning, but it's not really worth mentioning, the finale is a simple 6 can scavenge. Skip this campaign folks. Also reflections are broken on chapter 2.

Review

Another decent campaign by goanna, featuring his minimalistic approach to level design. As for issues; when loading into chapter 3 & 4 I had survivors spawn outside of the saferoom or out of bounds, might be a good idea to check the saferoom boundaries on all the maps to make sure they line up properly. For the finale; I think instead of having the instructions on a random sign, I would instead use the game instructor, as the finale is a little bit confusing for a first playthrough, took me a while to figure it out. A playthrough without restarts should last 30-40 minutes. I would skip this if unless you're a custom campaign enthusiast, I enjoyed the campaign though.

Review

Pretty good Halloween rendition of Dead Center. The layouts are actually quite different from the official campaign, so it's rather fresh. Worth a play. This campaign likes to crash my game which I suspect is caused by the HL2 characters, idk why (this is just a guess tho.)

Review

Pretty fun and well designed campaign. Can be confusing where to go on your first playthrough, but it's pretty fun to play through after you get used to the layout. It's fairly challenging but doesn't push it, it's very do-able. I would recommend the author to remove the Chinese characters from the VPK, otherwise the game won't recognize the VPK at all.

Review

Mediocre campaign overall. Chapter 3 and 5 are the worst. Really long drawn out events where you either wait for several minutes at a time, or deliver a bunch of cola bottles across long distances, not very fun. The mapping is also quite amateur across the board. Even if you are a furry I don't see the appeal, you can just look at images online, lol. Yeah, not recommended.

Review

Excellent campaign. To be honest, the changes seem to be relatively minor, there's some changes to the maps here and there, but overall it's still the same Freezing Point campaign. The older version used to crash on my server on chapter 2, but whatever changed seems to have fixed this issue on my end, which I'm thankful for. But yeah, no issues found, really polished campaign, worth a play.

Review

Yay! it's Crash Course with tank & witch spam gallore! Also ported from L4D1 without any changes so no L4D2 items or weapons. Avoid at all costs!

Review

Pretty decent campaign, nothing too crazy. Very large open areas, but it didn't really tire me or anything. Unfortunately chapter three crashes on my server about halfway through, although this isn't the authors fault. Only recommended for custom campaign enthusiasts.

Review

Yup, same shit as the previous two Baka campaigns. Trolling galore, not fun to play, avoid at all costs!

Review

Pretty great campaign. It's well paced and very, very long for one campaign. For me it clocked in at 1 hr 35 mins. Uses a lot of HL2 and CSS assets (might just be HL2 though,) which I am used to at this point since many custom campaigns use these assets. I suppose it's still nice to see. As for issues, it seems that the issues that were present in an older version were addressed, so nothing to report. Worth a play!

Also, make sure to rename the VPKs to English, as the game doesn't recognize the Chinese characters and will refuse to load them.

Review

Ugh... An item hunting simulator in a samey looking apartment building with multiple floors with no highlights around the actual objects. What is this, an Amnesia custom story? The finale is also pretty underwhelming. Lots of just waiting in elevators too. Absolute disaster of a campaign, avoid.

Review

A collection of the worst custom campaigns ever made. Full of tanks, witches and general trolling. Avoid at all costs.

Review

Very lazy campaign. The same hallways over and over. I get that's the idea, but it's very boring. Avoid.

Review

Pretty fun campaign. Concept has been done before on the campaign "Outrun" (funnily enough chapter 3 is also named Outrun in this campaign :P.)  I wouldn't really recommend playing this with bots as they love setting off the explosive barrels and getting the team killed.

Review

Yep, much like it's predecessor, this campaign is just as awful. Chapter 1 features trail and error parkour that's quite frustrating. I'm pretty sure chapter 2 is flat out impossible. You get all your equipment taken away and face multiple tanks in a very small area. Chapter 3; if you've played those awful glacier ice challenge maps before, it's like those, you run on ice whilst tanks chase you and you will probably get incapped by them hitting them cars. Chapter 4 features a very difficult scavenge map, you need 4 humans for this, or you're screwed. Chapter 5 features many NPC turrets that deal a ton of damage. You make your way around the map whilst avoiding them. Chapter 6 is a pretty typical gauntlet finale and actually isn't that bad, but it doesn't save the campaign from a 2/10 I'm afraid. Avoid at all costs.

Review

Typical troll campaign, waste of time. Chapter 1 is your "traditional" troll experience; dying unexpectedly, lots of tanks, the usual. Chapter 2 is very complicated math equations. You can just wing it until you get the correct answer, but have fun restarting every time you get an answer wrong. Chapter 3 has difficult to avoid super-fast trains that instant-kill you, so be warned. I'm not sure what you're supposed to do on chapter 4, so I skipped it. The finale was decent.... until the trolling as you're rushing to the rescue vehicle. Author couldn't help themselves and added a car and laser trap. Avoid at all costs, unless you enjoy pain.

Review

A fairly challenging campaign that can last from 45 minutes to 1 hour, assuming you don't have any restarts anyways. The author was very sparse with weapon and ammo distribution, but you can make do. The finale also has 4 tanks in total!
Also worth noting that this conflicts with another campaign called Hellride. You don't have to but changing the mission file name would make it so the two campaigns don't conflict.

Review

Your mission file needs to be fixed. You left in foreign characters which seemingly makes it impossible to load this campaign from a dedicated server.

Review

Well it's uh.... definitely one of the weirdest and most unique L4D2 map I've ever played. Is it any good? Well as a single player experience it's *alright.* I'd recommend trying it at least once and then deleting it when you've finished, no replay value here. I have no idea why the author made this in L4D2 and not something else like Gmod which would've made 20x more sense... buuuut. Hey.

Review

It's an alright campaign. It's quite confusing where to go on your first playthrough, especially on chapter 1. I had to let the bots guide me a bit ngl. It's not a copy/paste of The Sacrifice, kind of an alternate take if you will. No idea what this has to do with Sao Paulo, but I digress.

Review

Solid 3 map campaign with good aesthetics. No issues found on my end. Worth a play.

Review

Perfect 20 minute-ish traditional styled 4 mapper. No issues found, worth a play.

Review

Okay, so I have some thoughts after playing this version. I played this custom campaign in it's original form back when it came out, so i noticed the changes made since then (idk how I remembered what was different, usually my memory is trash.)
On chapter 2, there's this little "pulley" (idk what else to call it) to bring down the ladder to access the "balcony" (I guess) right after you leave the saferoom, this was also present in the old version, albeit with different hint text (why is there so many hint texts in Left 4 Dead's code anyways, lol.) There's a new doorway on the crane panic event which doesn't really change anything tbh. There appears to be a nav issue when shortcuting between the fence and the ledge (if that makes sense) the bots I'm guessing think you're down below and just hang off of the ledge that leads to the area below right outside the safehouse.
On the Mega Mobs version I was forced to take the alternate route to get outside which was interesting. I'm unsure if this is a product of Director 2.0 or not, (maybe) as in this version, it was normal.
The finale is all opened up now which is an interesting change, although it doesn't change how I play the map lol.

I'm curious as to why you decided to move the plane crash event to when rescue arrives, as I think it's just way more noticeable when it happens after leaving the safehouse. Everyone is so stressed getting to the vehicle that they probably won't notice it apart from the loud ass sound.

Now there's two issues on the finale that I noticed. The plane; the bots (both survivor and infected) refuse to acknowledge it's existence. Smokers will try to grab survivors through it, and survivor bots will continuously shoot at infected bots for the entire finale that loiter behind it. This wasn't a problem in the Valve version and should be fixed. The other issue which I believe is a holdover from Valve's version (and I have no idea if this was addressed by TLS team or not.) There's a specific spot where a tank can spawn and get stuck, pacing back and forth. It's hard to describe the exact location; if you're facing away from the finale radio, it's in that general direction towards the saferoom. (Irrelevant, but this can also happen to bot tanks on The Last Stand campaign.)

Now despite the campaign being described as scriptless, which don't get me wrong it probably is, it still includes the custom sounds. Now it's not really a big deal, but seemingly for people using a custom infected sound script, this will clash with the campaign, crashing the server (see attached image.) I think you should also remove the custom sounds in the scriptless version.

Overall I have no idea what's different between the normal version and the scriptless version, they both play exactly the same, apparently this doesn't contain custom infected? (idk what that has to do with scripts, maybe population?)

Still rated a 9 because this version of Dead Air is fun and plays well, the issue with bots on the finale should be addressed though.
After some though I decided to leave my negative review of the mega mobs edition, as I still think it's pointless even though there are multiple options here. 
Speaking of the options, I imagine it might be a pain to do, (idk I've never mapped b4) but you should try "distinguish" the versions. By that I mean have different mission file names and map names so the versions don't clash with each other. Now this isn't a problem when playing with friends, however, when trying to play with randoms, you won't know what version they're playing, so if your versions don't match, you won't be able to play with them, which is a big issue in my opinion.

Review

Well, if ya wanted to play Blood Harvest with Tank & Witch spam galore, this is your campaign. Also this is a direct L4D1 port with no changes made, so you're limited to L4D1 items (which doesn't really affect the gameplay at all, but ik melee bros are crying rn.) Thankfully there doesn't appear to be stupid death triggers on this campaign compared to the other "HEM" campaigns. (Doesn't make it any better though.)

Review

Well, if ya wanted to play Dead Air with Tank & Witch spam galore, this is your campaign. Also this is a direct L4D1 port with no changes made, so you're limited to L4D1 items (which doesn't really affect the gameplay at all, but ik melee bros are crying rn.) There are stupid modifications like a kill trigger for activating the finale radio... for some reason. Oh yeah, forgot to mention, for some reason the door at the end of chapter 3 was locked, idk why, it's the one before the staircase.

Review

Well, if ya wanted to play No Mercy with Tank & Witch spam galore, this is your campaign. Also this is a direct L4D1 port with no changes made, so you're limited to L4D1 items (which doesn't really affect the gameplay at all, but ik melee bros are crying rn.) Strangely the campaign uses the Pre-TLS populations which I find peculiar. There are stupid modifications like a kill trigger for activating the panic event on chapter 2 or taking the "conventional" sewer route on chapter 3. There are some minor "portal" issues (meaning the level pops in and out) on chapter 4, but whatever.

Review (REPOST FROM OG VERSION)

Troll campaign. I appreciate the effort, but it was ruined by the absurd amount of tanks you put on the campaign. My advice, don't waste your time.

Review

Oh boy, another goanna campaign. I've noticed goanna seems to feature a lot of bodily fluid references in his campaigns, typically of the anal variety.... Anyways, this goanna campaign features primarily tanks, although on one of the chapters, it was either 2 or 3 I forgot, there's a bunch of witches on a bridge. This campaign provides a good challenge whilst also being fair to the survivors, as you get tier 2 weapons immediately on chapter 1, and there'll be lots of weapons to choose from in the saferooms alongside lasers.

(The following issues have been addressed, cheers goanna!) Only issues I encountered were on the finale. It seems that if a horde spawns, they can actually break down the locked door that requires some prerequisites to unlock, which is what happened to me, which in turn makes it so you don't have to do anything to start the finale lol. Also the hitbox of the rescue vehicle remains present at all times, maybe that's why I thought that some of my shots were not landing on the finale.
Not a bad campaign, good to kill about 30-45 minutes.

Review

Sorry for the low rating, but this edition is completely pointless as the same effect can be easily achieved with external mods. (I guess not every single change but you get the idea.)

Review

Decent campaign. Aesthetics are fine, nothing ground-breaking. I have two issues with its current version or incarnation: The elevator on chapter 2 should be sped up, it's a bit too slow right now in my opinion. Also I had three tank suicides during my runthrough, which is a bit absurd, the navmesh should be straightened out for the special infected. First suicide was on chapter 1, just as we reached the end of the elevator ride. Second suicide was when we were at the beginning of chapter 3. Third suicide was the second tank on the finale.
Overall though the map design is fine, a pretty standard traditional style campaign. Forgot to check how long it took me, it's a little bit shorter than a Valve campaign. So probably 20-30 minutes.

Review

Like Glubtastic 1, I feel like I reviewed this before, so I'm not sure what happened. It's more of the same trolling-bs.
Chapter 1 has this stupid tank survival section with multiple tanks, you can kinda cheese them if you hide in the truck at the beginning. There's a bit of platforming at the end and a pick-a-door to end it off.
Chapter 2 is le epic Covid-19 reference, where you must shop for materials. I honestly quite like this chapter and it's the most creative one so far as of Glubtastic 2.
Chapter 3 is a relatively fine platforming chapter but has this really annoying func_breakable that you have to defeat at the end of the chapter that deals a lot of damage to you.
Chapter 4 is annoying platforming, nothing special.
Chapter 5 is EVEN MORE annoying platforming with many tanks and trolls.
Chapter 5; when I first played, no idea what I was supposed to do. After playing this campaign with randoms many times, you're supposed to load up the plane with the... uh.. trolleys? With fire barrels in them, scattered around the map. The idea of killing the big boomer is pretty cool, and I like that you can avoid the vomit by hiding (a lot of people don't know this.) Very rarely if you're unfortunate enough one of the trolleys can get stuck on geometry, but this rarely happens, also you only have one closet respawn available if you fall off the map, so be careful.

Overall, this campaign isn't horribly bad like Glubtastic 3 having that god-awful train chapter, but there's honestly not much reason to keep coming back to this one. I think if you can manage the trolling, it's worth it as a one-off with friends at the very least.

Review

I feel like I reviewed this before, so I'm not sure what happened. Either way I've played this campaign countless times, it's a troll campaign. But thankfully not as sadistic as hehe tends to be, nevertheless, there's plenty of trail and error to be had here.
Chapter 2, the coaster is definitely the worst, as you have to memorize a certain pattern of shooting targets at the end of the chapter, it's just. really annoying. 
Chapter 3 also has a annoying bit at the end where if you shoot the wrong post, you just die and will probably have to restart. The timing also has to be super tight to avoid the moving traffic.
The finale can take quite a while as well, there's platforming, dodging falling debris, and the slaying of many witches and tanks. You can choose which one you want to do first.
The other two chapters aren't really worth mentioning but chapter 1 is a trollfest; pick the correct door, don't die to the falling boomers, and a tank RNG fest at the end where you'll probably get incapped by the frdiges they punch. Chapter 4 is just platforming with an annoying constant smoker that spawns at the end of the chapter, making it really annoying.

It succeeds as a troll campaign but isn't really worth playing.

Review

Idk what to make of this campaign. I think the best description is: a low-quality sh*tpost. Chapter 1 is a typical map, chapter 2 however, no idea what you're supposed to do. You arrive at a shop but you're not given instructions on what you're supposed to be doing there, guess I'm just the big dumb. Chapter 3 is a simple map, you collect some objects whilst you're chased by some entity that insta kills you, the map is very short so it's easy. Chapter 4 is the worst; pick a door. Of course I god-moded this one lol, have fun if you're playing without mods. Chapter 5 is nothing special, chapter 6 crashed my server right before the end, so idk how it ends, I saw two doors with buttons that have to be pressed, so idk if they're le epic troll or not. The finale is also nothing special, very bland finale.

Not worth your time.

Review

Now don't get me wrong, I do like the concept of the backrooms, however this campaign ain't it. I would expect the confusing labyrinths alright, although such design just doesn't work in L4D2. If you are of the crowd that for some reason enjoys puzzle-solving and labyrinths in L4D2 ( a fast-paced arcade-style zombie shooter mind you) then... I guess this is your campaign. Oh, don't play this with bots, it's a miserable experience, navmesh is barely functional at times, probably due to the campaigns reliance on teleporting the player around.

The campaign is extremely trail and error based, and quite difficult to solve the puzzles, prepare to die A LOT.

To be a little bit positive though I think the environments are pretty cool, sure they can be repetitive, but they are... visually distinct or appealing, in my opinion.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Amazing campaign. Great map design. Plenty of supplies. No botnav errors. No glitches/bugs. And even though I don't use melee weapons, the custom melee weapons were a nice touch :)

Review

If you're familiar with the White Forest campaign, or even Half Life 2: Episode 2, this campaign is basically the White Forest campaign with some minor additions and two new chapters to play through, which I believe are original designs. Both of the new chapters are fine, really nothing to talk about, I believe there's a surprise on the finale that I unfortunately didn't get to see because my server setup didn't play nice with the finale. Yeah it's pretty good, worth a play. Took me around 50 minutes I think.

Review

Not that great of a campaign, but playing it this time around my experience was a lot better than the previous version. The improvements to the campaign include chapter 3 and chapter 5 (the finale.) The can limit was lowered on chapter 3 to a more reasonable amount (today I learned the survivors have voice lines for 20 cans remaining lol, maybe I heard it before, idk.) Thankfully the author made it so you can use the cannon to attack the boss, this wasn't told to the player in the previous version, making it very confusing to understand what was meant by "run or wait." The finale is still pretty difficult but doable. I can't really recommend playing this campaign with bots even if it is doable. My run lasted 54 minutes.

Review (REPOST FROM OG VERSION)

A decent campaign, it's a pretty solid campaign with poor environmental design, but it doesn't take away from the fun for me.

Review

I'm a bit confused by the description as it says chapter 5 and 6 are coming soon, but the campaign is fully playable from start to finish right now, so.. Either way my only criticism of the campaign is that I would make it clearer where to go after the chapter 1 elevator ride as the layout is very confusing. Also, chapters 4-6 are mostly re-used from the Deadcity campaign (and like half of chapter 3 I guess.) So the campaign is quite familiar, I've played Deadcity many many times in the past. Overall it's an alright campaign but if you've played Deadcity before, you kinda know what to expect.

Review

Very long campaign, took me over an hour to finish although I died twice. The campaign contains a lot of witches and tanks which does feel rather.. arbitrary. If the author removed the excessive witch and tank spawns the campaign would actually increase in quality in my opinion. So yeah avoid this campaign if you really don't like tank & witch spam as this campaign has a lot, not recommended for expert, advanced if you like pain.

Review

Well if you want Fairfield Terror with L4D2 survivors, busted string tables, pre-TLS No Mercy population, retail outro and L4D1 items only, this is your version lol.

Review

Seems like this one was reuploaded, so I'll give it a re-review. A decent campaign, compared to the last time I played this seems like there's a new chapter that involves elevators. (chapter 5) Doesn't change my opinion about the campaign though, it's a pretty solid campaign with poor environmental design, but it doesn't take away from the fun for me.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

It was ok. Some of the maps were pretty bland. The textures were low quality in some areas and high in other places. Pretty meh experience.

Review

Yeah, pretty standard oldschool campaign. No issues found and just a solid campaign.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Remember. Left 4 Dead 2 is not Silent Hill. It is very unforgiving when you die, the maps are WAY too long so if you die, you have to spend another 10+ minutes getting back to where you were. Bland design in some places (guess you can blame Konami) so it was pretty damn boring walking in a single direction, a straight line for the majority of the time. Very confusing were to go at times, guess you can blame me for not liking puzzles. The bot navmesh on the final map is a tad bit bad where bots seem to like going through the water rather than on land and end up drowning themselves. Also on the second last map I couldn't figure it what to do, it may be broken. i pressed the elevator button multiple times and nothing happened. Other than that, pretty grand. Custom textures were a nice touch, custom character models, special infected, sounds and some of the chapters had descent design.

Review

I tried this campaign when it came out but it seemed to be incompatible with my mod loadout (it crashed after the gman speech.) I decided to try it again without mods but it seems to be pretty buggy. On chapter 2, I died as I was trying to figure out what i needed to do, when i respawned I was stuck in the floor along with Zoey, requiring noclip. The campaign seems to crash a lot even with 0 mods enabled for whatever reason, which is pretty frustrating. The campaign has cool ideas, and the custom models are cool, but instability prevents me from giving this a proper rating.

Review

Yeah this campaign sucks. Super long drawn out panic events and a super long drawn out finale with super amateur mapping, yeah hard pass.

Review

It's pretty good. Not my favourite campaign by a long shot, but it's competent for what it is. I personally dislike long drawn out finales, but this one didn't overstay it's welcome too much. Also personally I really dislike the custom music additions, probably just me though.

Review

Perfect campaign. My runthrough lasted just over 20 minutes. It's a well polished traditional.styled campaign. No issues encountered.

Review

Great campaign! Just really solid all around, a fun 30 minute run through cool environments, no issues found, worth a play!

Review

My opinions on the second incarnation of kimchi zombie are basically the same as the first one. There's more content this time around and this sequel(?) reuses three maps from the first incarnation, with the addition of two new ones. It's more of the same, very long drawn out panic events where you must complete a task. Took me about an hour to complete.
Also the credits are bugged and do not show your stats, that should be fixed.

Review

Alright, wow I am super impressed. I have played previous versions of NanningCity which were NOTHING like this, i remember them being pretty underwhelming. The mapping on this campaign is absolutely breathtaking, the pacing is also fantastic and the campaign will keep you playing probably for 40 minutes to an hour I think. This campaign is seriously underrated and absolutely deserves a play! there's custom models from other Source games to keep it looking fresh as well. Seriously, wow!

Review

About time I got around to playing this, and yep, a perfect 10/10 campaign. The lighting, atmosphere and map layouts are pretty much on point, had no problems with the campaign, very well done to the developers. The custom models are also a great touch and personally; didn't care for the custom dialogue, but hey, I suppose it's refreshing after being so used to the vanilla voice clips. Maybe it's just me but I am surprised that there wasn't much survivor chatter, I've already heard the community lines for winter-themed campaigns on other campaigns before, but they woulda been a nice touch. (look at me being a pessimist :P)
EDIT: Ignore that previous statement, prolly not hearing most dialogue due to mod conflicts, typical.

Review

Yeah this campaign is quite a disaster. Was it fun? Ehhhhh sometimes yes, but the majority of the time it was frustrating. If the description is unclear, each chapter is dedicated to a particular special infected, so that means there are 8 different chapters (as it includes a map dedicated to common infected as well) and then a special finale map. I was honestly having a good time until chapter 5, which is the smoker chapter, at this point I was getting pretty fed up with the gimmicks. The campaign is honestly not terrible (but not good either), but definitely not for me. It also has a pretty challenging final boss too, which will take you a long time to beat I imagine. The campaign took me 2 hours and 15 minutes to beat.

Oh I forgot to mention, this campaign has a bunch of custom scripts, so m60s have 600 ammunition, you can crawl, smokers can smoke you from an infinite distance, jockeys move faster and hunters + tanks have terrible aim. To add, I imagine that smoker chapter would be super annoying on advanced and expert although you'd have to be insane to play this campaign on anything above normal lol.

Review

To be honest, when I was on chapter two, I felt like there were way too many panic events crammed together, but as it went on it at least felt less "cramped" in that regard, so i ended up quite enjoying myself. Is it better than the original? Meh I put both versions on the same tier to be honest, both are good. I'll take your word for this campaign being quite replayable with random events as I'll play it again in the future no doubt, I noticed the extra chapters in the chapter select. So yeah, maybe I just got a funny "seed" if you will were there were a bunch of panic events on the first two chapters, either way, it was fun.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Nice facelift for Dark Carnival, it doesn't stay completely true to the original, and includes its own aesthetics here and there, but it's a fun way to play. There are very minor gameplay changes; You can't access the sniper towers on the finale, and the water on chapter 1 is gone.

Review

Very interesting and cool VScript. The changes on chapter 1 are very creative and I wish the entire campaign was altered too, but I udnerstand your wishes to not port the rest, worth a try!

Review

Yup, it's even more Questionable Ethics if you enjoyed the previous three, you'll enjoy this one. I think overall I do prefer the original (especially the finale,) although it's been quite some time since I've played it and I get them all mixed up rather easily. Although of course, there's nothing wrong with this campaign.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Great campaign! Plenty of supplies. Unique map design. No bugs/glitches. No botnav errors. really enjoyed playing this campaign! (Even though I died on the finale 3 times)

Review (REPOST FROM OG VERSION)

It just fails... I understand you're trying to emulate real life, but it just doesn't work in Left 4 Dead 2! This is what happens when you take assets from different games and such and attempt to use them in this type of game, it just doesn't work. Boring bland long tedious level design. A bit of a lack of supplies. Botnav errors every now and then. Just bad...

Review

Wayyyyy better now than the previous revisions, took a while, but I consider this campaign to be a pretty good one now, well done to the authors!
This campaign features a lot of gauntlets, if I recall correctly there's at least one every chapter, although maybe one of the chapter's didn't have one. It's a fairly long one too, it took me almost 50 minutes to beat.
Really my only criticism now is the confusing finale layout, there should still be something to guide the player towards the "activators" if you know what I mean, as I don't want someone to get confused like I did in the past thinking that there was something to do with the ammo pile room above where the activators are.
I'm super pleased to see that the gauntlets are way more fair than they used to be, seemingly using some vanilla scripts which I approve of. The pacing is way better than previous versions too, I really like what you did with merging the end of chapter 1 from a previous version into chapter 2, it flows way better.
I think a redundant section was cut at some point, unfortunately I can't really remember what it was but it improved the flow of the campaign for sure, I think it was a small section anyways.
The sewers got a bit of an overhaul as well which is nice to see.
Yeah I can now safely recommend this campaign in its current state, pretty good!

Review

Pretty decent campaign, I re-read my review of the original version and seems like I wasn't a fan lol, but this version adds a new map which is pretty cool; a gauntlet "finale" on chapter 1. I was a bit thrown off by the fact that you can climb certain vents and pipes on this campaign at first. But yeah the campaign is pretty alright, nothing too crazy. Also it's nice to see that the finale works properly now.

Review

Overall I think this texture pack is great for beta Nthusiasts. I didn't think much of it when I first saw these texture packs coming out as I subconsciously thought they'd look really shitty and low-res, but actually playing with them feels like a completely different experience at times. I played through all the campaigns to see how they would feel, and it sells the girtty aesthetic pretty well. My only grievances are sometimes textures look out of place or cut off suddenly, a quick example would be usually the grass textures, sometimes there's just brickwork that suddenly turns into grass, or grass that turns into a different shade of grass. For out of place, a really silly one is caravans that have this really rusted metal texture that just looks dumb, and I noticed some tilework on ceilings, like in Dead Air that also looks pretty dumb.
As I said though, overall, I'm a big fan of these textures. These are paired great with CSS model replacers and I think I'm using HL2 blood spatters iirc.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

Perfect campaign. Great map design. Nice custom music. Nice voice acting. No botnav errors. however, for some reason the 2nd tank on the finale suicided. But anyways, nice work.

Review

Simple and fairly short campaign, but quite fun. A nice balanced challenge on higher difficulties. I don't really have much to comment on other than that. Worth a play

Review

Seems to be more or less identical to Gloom Town, albeit with the L4D2 survivors & more dialogue triggers. The lighting seems a bit brighter and that's it. I suppose I'll repost my Gloom Town review here.
Pretty solid campaign. The map design is fine, nothing I was super impressed about, but it's alright. The custom finale is pretty cool, but nothing to write home about. All in all, a pretty alright campaign in my books.

Review

Review

Just reposting my review from the OG version.
Fantastic campaign with a unique aesthetic. Pretty edgy and that's fine, heh. Perfect for Halloween if you're into the gritty stuff.

Review

Great work so far. I really like how non-linear the levels are, no issues found on my end, looking forward to the completed version :)

Review

Very average campaign, not really worth playing. I appreciate the author trying to make custom setpieces and the custom enemies are cool and all but eh, there's not really enough here to keep it exciting. The map design itself is quite bland and flat, which may be a part of the problem. (By the way, I appreciate that you made it so the bots can shoot at the custom enemies)

Review

Yeah not a bad campaign, but not really great either. The custom enemies are cool, but that's kinda it as far as this campaign's qualities. The map design is very bland and flat. (By the way, I appreciate that you made it so the bots can shoot at the custom enemies)

Review

Yeah, this campaign is horridly imbalanced in favour of the infected, I'm pretty sure the Helms Deep survival map was really unbalanced as well. Even the Lord of The Rings campaign had pretty awful balance iirc. Does spamming a billion infected at the survivors make it more fun or challenging? No! It makes it an absolute nightmare! I'm sure it's beatable with actual strategy with a team of 3 or 4 good players, but yeah, this campaign is definitely not for me.

Review

Not worth playing at all. Very boring and drawn out with long empty corridors, barely any action and a long waiting section at the end for rescue. Very underwhelming map and pretty quick to beat.

Review

Excellent campaign. Has great layouts, a unique concept on chapter 1 where all 4 survivors are separated and have different paths to take (kinda similar to Deadenator if anyone has played that one before.) This seems to be the first custom campaign to use AI generated voice clips which is pretty interesting. Absolutely worth a play!

Review

Cool map, well put together. As you said it's very short but you tried to make the most of it. The bots struggle on this one, they can get stuck sometimes when trying to descend at certain points.

Review

I went ahead and played the updated version (I wanted to wait for the updated, presumably final version but whatever,) and even without a finale this campaign is honestly a lot better than Crash Course lol. This campaign is quite long, unfortunately I didn't keep track of how long I played for since I usually leave it to the game to keep track, but there's no credits screen yet, but I would estimate I was playing for around 30 minutes even without a finale, so it's well lengthed. If you're looking for a classic style campaign, this is a pretty good one, although there's only a single panic event in the entire campaign (and it's pretty meh,) I think it could've benefited from more. It can still be a bit confusing where to go at times if this is your first time playing, in particular, chapter two has a warehouse with a little ladder tucked away in the corner, arrows would've helped here, and also a game instructor hint on how to start the panic event on chapter three. Pretty solid campaign overall though worth a play, unless you're disappointed by the lack of a finale.

Review

Fun, but short. I would genuinely like to see something like this turned into a proper campaign that isn't absurdly difficult, similar to those parkour segments on the Glubtastic campaigns. This one shouldn't take you very long to beat unless you don't understand the games physics very well. It took me 17 minutes I think.

Review

Fun alternative to the RE3 campaign, plays well and offers fun environments to plough through. Worth a play!

Review

I haven't played the original in quite some time, but this seems to add a bit more to the campaign (actually this might be identical to the version already on gamemaps, file sizes are the same), the map layouts seem to be more or less the same. I do like the idea of the RNG elements, this campaign is certainly very experimental in nature. There's now a flyable helicopter which controls like ass so I didn't bother using it. That's about it.

Review

I remember playing this campaign before but I don't remember what issues it had (seems like I never wrote a review,) so I can't comment on the fixes this version provides. The campaign itself is quite slow paced and drawn out for those that enjoy a more layed back experience. As for the issues chapter 3 needs to have its string tables rebuilt, it crashes on my server, but it could just be a me thing since I play with mods. The environments are very "open-ended" and not claustrophobic. The navmesh is a bit buggy, I've had tank suicides and bots rushing to warp past the gate to the rescue vehicle since the rescue arrival triggers early for some reason (although the latter isn't necessarily a navmesh bug.) Definitely a very average experience for me, there's not really a lot to comment on.

Review

Thanks for the patching up, this one is a classic for sure, very unique experience. I will repost my review of it here.

Despite how janky this campaign is, I really, really enjoyed it! The map design is creative and interesting and isn't that kind of "bad troll" map design where you die to bs you could never see coming; this campaign actually gives you a lot of supplies, and I mean A LOT of supplies for the many events you'll be facing throughout the campaign, it's almost impossible to run out of ammo! There's some funny jokes to be had here and there as well. There's an interesting section that i remember loathing on chapter 4, right near the end where there's a bunch of witches you have to deal with. In retrospect, I have to admit it isn't actually poorly designed at all. You get a few defibs after the ordeal, and you get tier 2 shotguns to deal with them after explosions occur. Maybe.. it's a bit too close to the end imo, but tbh, coming back to it I appreciate it more now even if it is very scary to deal with. The finale's pretty fun as well, some goofs, shit tons of supplies and scavenge, pretty enjoyable, really really good.

Review

Average campaign overall, definitely not my favourite work by goanna. This campaign is missing the goanna charm I have become accustomed to from his other campaigns, and it's almost night and day compared to some of his other campaigns. If you pretend that he tried to "play it safe" with this one, I think it's a good way to describe it, as it feels very generic. The maps are very barren and uninspired, generic foggy swamp environments which I have played time and time again.It plays perfectly fine, I didn't encounter any issues, I guess the layout can be a bit confusing but it's negligible. This one I would avoid, as it doesn't offer anything interesting to keep me coming back.

Review

Not going to rate this campaign. You should definitely move your campaigns to the "versus" category, no point having them in the campaign category if they don't work at all in campaign mode. Regardless I will ignore the campaign related issues and talk about the levels. I do prefer the original Dead Air for sure. The one thing I do like is the introduction of the docks chapter from the comics, even if the map doesn't play very well (confusing where to go and the really narrow bits at the end.) I find the choice to have chapter 1's saferoom not actually safe very weird, but I guess it gives the infected an opportunity to have one last attack. (Although maybe in versus mode there's no actual crawl ladders to get on the rooftop, but regular infected can still spawn there.)

The new areas introduced are... not great. They definitely leave a lot to be desired and are generally very barren and boring, and take away the charm of my favourite retail campaign. 
I'm not sure how I feel about there being so many choke points, it feels extremely cheap when a survivor gets screwed over because he was a second too late to jump down to the next area, if your team is skilled it's not a problem, but there's too many on chapter 2.

Getting rid of the panic events for gauntlets makes sense for versus mode and replacing them with gauntlet sections, even if the logic of said gauntlets placements makes no sense when it comes to world-building, but granted rather irrelevant in competitive play.

I know bots aren't very important in versus, but you should at least make sure your navmesh works properly, it's very bad on chapter 2 especially (pretty much broken) and could use polishing on all maps.

I would just flat out cut the finale map since you made it an insta win, no point to it being here.

That's pretty much all I have to say, I prefer the original.

Review

Well does the sequel improve upon the original? Yeah sure.... Is it worth playing now? No. The author made an actual level to play through before the finale holdout, but it's extremely barren and uninteresting. This campaign takes about 10 minutes, which is double the original. Also the ammo pile on the finale is fake.

Review

This is not a campaign map, please move it to the "survival" category.

Review

Utterly pointless 5 minute barely populated finale map that's extremely easy.

Review

Yeah, not a bad campaign, pretty basic in my opinion but it gets the job done. Each map features a long panic event that you will have to sit through, well except the finale unless you count the finale event itself. It can be a little bit confusing on where to go, but it literally does not matter after the first playthrough. I didn't encounter any issues on my end, pretty average all things considered, but inoffensive.

Review

Very unfinished and buggy in its current state, but it is certainly a very interesting twist on Dead Center. As for the issues I encountered; One of the survivors died on the map 1-2 transition, I assume due to the way the door is barricaded when you load in, I'm not sure. Chapter 3 saferoom has no supplies on transition, this might be a campaign-only bug though, in fact both of them probably are, which I understand is not the focus... so yeah. Regardless I still like what you are going for and am looking forward to future versions.

Review

Pretty fun creative campaign. Clocks in about over 30 minutes. Some very light "puzzle" elements, and if you've played the previous two "Dr. Malroy" campaign, you know what you're in for. I'm pretty impressed with the creativity in this campaign, I doubt it's like anything you've ever played before, give it a try! I didn't have any issues (despite having a very script heavy server!) other than a massive lagspike at one point in the campaign I believe it was in chapter 2 the elevator ride (when you get re-infected), might've been chapter 3 but I have the memory of a goldfish so..

Review

Not pretty to look at but it's got some cool environments for a first attempt. Your campaign suffers from the bug where if you die on  a chapter, like chapter 1, you respawn at the end of the next map.

Review

Very mediocre campaign. Being only 1 chapter long, it has a lot to live up to, and it doesn't. The mapping is fairly amateur, nothing terrible really, but you can just tell. The lighting is bad, not in the "too dark can't see anything" sense, but there's not much dynamic light at all, and it's too bright for a map supposedly taking place at night. The author addressed the issue with the finale (no more infinite tanks), so it's a lot more manageable now thankfully. It clocks in at about 10 minutes.

Review

Yep it's Innards with more special, tank and witch spawns, honestly it's not that difficult considering the generous distribution of health, tier 2 weapons and laser sights, it kinda trivializes the whole thing honestly, that is if you know how to play Left 4 Dead competently... heh.

Review

An interesting array of mini games. The quality of said mini games varies greatly but I had a bit of fun with some of them. I'd kinda recommend you skipping certain mini games if you don't enjoy them, using cheats or just skipping the chapter, because some of them are pretty unfun. Overall though some interesting ideas for sure and there is some fun to be had. I wonder if one mini game per chapter or a checkpoint/skip feature would've made this campaign better, I think so.

Review

Great campaign. Interesting to see the little changes here and there that were made between the versions, for me the most notable thing is how moody it feels compared to the L4D2 version, which is to be expected from L4D1 style campaigns I suppose. The spawning is a bit scuffed; I had an immediate tank spawn before I even left the saferoom on chapter 1, and there were a few instances of commons spawning on top of me or close to me, and the navmesh is a bit worse than the L4D2 version since the original nav was preserved.I still consider it a 10 though, a joy to play.The unused(?) music is really cool to hear too.

Review

Absolutely perfect. Yes I do consider this version to be better than the original, although the original was still a great campaign. The layouts are certainly more interesting than the original this time around, I really like your ideas on how to re-do the campaign. No issues found, definitely a keeper!

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

So I actually managed to play through the entire campaign this time around. It took 2 hours. It's funny because I didn't really like this campaign back in the day and how do i feel today? Well, some aspects I like, others I don't like, it's certainly not my favourite campaign but I'd imagine a superfan of Silent Hill or someone who grew up with it would really, really like this campaign. Generally speaking; I'm not a fan of non-traditional campaigns; that is to say: ones that deviate from the L4D formula (linear maps with rooms to scavenge.) This one is non linear (duh). I'll say having the items highlighted in this version helps SO MUCH you don't understand how better that makes the experience, because you're just not sure what to pick up because not everything is obvious and they're easy to miss (probably a big reason I didn't like this campaign back then.)

There's a wide variety of environments, and the lighting is either superb or so dark you can only see what your flashlight illuminates, pretty nuts. The occultism is cool (always something I "enjoy" don't take that the wrong way heh.)
Alright I've been all over the place this review, let's get down to business: I will say it's the main gimmick of this campaign and that's to scavenge for "key items" or something that helps you progress, which... I didn't mind too much, the problem arises when you occidentally walk past a room you're supposed to search, then you end up wasting a bit of time wandering around, thankfully didn't happen to me too much.
The formula reminds me of a game I actually played a lot "Amnesia: The Dark Descent" where you do the exact same thing in a horror environment with more gimmicks. 
I will give kudos to the author, I don't know if it was Leafo or Dzhigurda that placed the supplies around, but it makes the campaign actually beatable and enjoyable since you're never in a situation really where you're screwed so long as you're not getting hit by every special infected.

As for bugs, for some reason on the chapter "Alternative Hospital" it seems as though I could open the safe room door early(?) I'm not actually sure, I THINK I got a key, but anyways the bots wouldn't follow me in, so you either slowwly push them into the room and then the saferoom or you just kill them right there, navmesh needs fixing here either way or whatever this problem is.
The finale is a bit anti-climactic I will say, but... does it really need to be some epic holdout finale? Nah I think it's fine the way it is, you need a quick ending after a 2 hour long campaign lol.

In conclusion; avoid this campaign if you don't enjoy non-linear map (aka looking around for items to progress and solve "puzzles.") If you don't mind that though, enjoy yourself, allocate time, grab some friends and enjoy the 2 or more hour long experience in one sitting if you can, there's fun to be had.

Review

Another fantastic campaign and a great follow up to the original Lockdown, it did not disappoint! This time around, the maps aren't as claustrophobic compared to the first entry. And yeah I'm pretty sure you generally spend less time in interiors, although the claustrophobic, cramped map design of the original is probably what gives me that idea. Just an absolutely flawless campaign as far as I'm concerned, bravo, a keeper for sure.

Review

Very fun campaign! Actually not super difficult and over the top difficulty wise, very doable, even with bots. The checkpoint system is great, makes playing through it actually fun and not frustrating, I appreciate it very much. Each level contains a long run to an eventual boss fight, sometimes with minor objectives scattered in as well. There's multiple paths to choose form, although they eventually lead to the same linear path. Unfortunately the finale kept crashing my server in the submarine, so I couldn't finish it, but the other three levels were pretty fun actually, good work! I would recommend people at least try it, even if it's not traditional, it's quite fun.

Review

Fun little 5 mapper. Chapter 1 is a pretty standard map as you make your way through an underground section, and have a little holdout section at the end. Chapter 2 is the shortest and features a relatively short holdout section. Chapter 3 is a pretty crazy one as you fight a lot of hordes as well as two tanks, and finally have a short gauntlet right at the end. Chapter 4 is also a pretty standard chapter, I don't really have anything to say about it. And the finale has a pretty interesting "set piece," I won't spoil it :). Pretty descent campaign, worth a try. The aesthetics aren't anything impressive, but it plays well, and isn't super ugly to look at or anything, that's what matters right? No issues on my end.

Review

Great traditional-styled 4 mapper. Honestly; there's nothing wrong with the campaign, it's a joy to play, good layouts, well balanced and good pacing, definitely worth a play.

Review

This is genuinely some of the worst custom content Left 4 Dead 2 has to offer. This campaign has 0 redeeming qualities and is a grand waste of your time, disk space and bandwidth. I'm gonna save my breath and assume that you know why I said that, tanks, trolling blah blah blah. Tiresome. 30 maps of nothing.

Review

I didn't laugh, did you? It's a very basic campaign with 6 arenas, each designated to a specific special infected. the arenas are usually very small with not a lot of breathing room, but yeah all you do is survive for several minutes and you win.

Review

Short little one mapper, but gets the job done. You'll probably be playing for about 20-30 minutes at most, but the map included is fine, it's short and sweet. No issues found.

Review

Yeah, it's alright. Definitely not my favourite campaign, not too bad though. A lot of the areas are pretty bland and too open, which I generally do not like in a campaign. I played Huckleberry's version back in the day and that one had an unbeatable finale, so it's good to see it was addressed here. One thing I would definitely change is the HP of the metal door on chapter 3, shooting that thing is pretty dreadful and takes 3-5 minutes sometimes, I'd either do that or turn it into an automatic panic event, but either way, the campaign's alright.

Review

Nice facelift for Dark Carnival, it doesn't stay completely true to the original, and includes its own aesthetics here and there, but it's a fun way to play. There are very minor gameplay changes; You can't access the sniper towers on the finale, and the water on chapter 1 is gone.

Review

Yeah, this campaign sucks. Chapter 1 has the survivors running from start to finish, avoid the MANY tanks, and having to break glass panes with their melee weapons along the way, which requires teamwork and co-ordination, so at the mapper suggests, don't play this campaign with bots. Chapter 2 Is a super long coin collecting mission, have fun trail and erroring this one... Chapter 3 was actually a pretty standard chapter for the campaign all things considered. Chapter 4 is easily the worst, the map is quite unoptimized, so prepare for bad ping. The survivors have to destroy 4 trees... for some reason... and they take quite a while to destroy, and have fun dealing with the constant hordes and tanks... Chapter 5 is another stinker, and is also quite laggy, although the reason being is you have to kill many NPCs in order to complete this chapter, and it's quite annoying, I'll give ya that. The finale is your typical gauntlet to the end, although again somewhat difficult. Unless you're looking to punish yourself I would strongly suggest you not play this campaign, unless you are your friends are masochists.

Review

Simple idea, you run around the map collecting coins whilst an infinite number of tanks spawn in. Trail and error based for sure. Obviously don't play with bots, this map requires proper strategy to beat. there's different difficulty settings which just increase or decrease the amount of coins you need.

Review

Fun little 3 mapper. Some very minor puzzle elements, with fun to be had. I wouldn't recommend playing this campaign with the bots, they struggle and tend to get stuck a fair bit.

Review

Bad campaign. It's quite short (1 chapter long), has very bland level design, and is just not interesting enough to play.

Review

Great campaign so far, good map design & layout. It's a Valve-styled campaign for the most part so it's fun to play, looking forward to future versions.

Review

Your typical unbalanced trollish campaign filled to the brim with bullshittery. There's a lot of running in this campaign, many tanks to fight, many witches to avoid and some puzzles to solve, it will keep you going for a long time. There is a lot of supplies provided, but unfortunately it doesn't really help just due to how unbalanced the infected spawns are. Very unfun, avoid.

Review

Fantastic remake of Cambalache, I have to say that this is one of the prettiest L4D2 campaigns I have played, it has a stunning level of detail which in my opinion is better than Valve's simplistic take at mapping (where there's a lot of sparse areas that leave a lot to be desired.) Being a remake, this version has quite many differences compared to the original; familiar but also fresh. I really like this campaign. it is just aesthetically beautiful and flows really well, can be a bit confusing where to go sometimes, but you only need to play it once to memorize the layout. So yeah it deserves a high rating, well done author!

Review

Very bad campaign. The big stinker chapter 2 chapter 2 which is just full to the brim with witches, which makes it an absolute nightmare to play, although not impossible of course. Chapter 1 is fine, it's just a simple forest map with a few tanks to deal with. The finale is also a very simple & easy holdout finale. Not a lot of effort was put into this campaign and it shows, the pointless witch spam on chapter 2 is completely unnecessary, but otherwise it was still a very mediocre experience.

Review

This is not a campaign.

Review

Yeah, it's not much to look at right now as it's unfinished. First impressions from the first map though is that the author is going for a very handcrafted experience rather than letting the director take care of things completely, so there's a few scripted special spawns and a linear sequence of scripted events you must follow to progress in the map. I'm interested to see the next update to see how the campaign progresses.

Review

Terrible, typical troll campaign. Definitely one of the least interesting and blandest hehe campaigns, and yes it's your typical spam tanks and witches troll campaign. The maps are incredibly bland, just a completely awful campaign.

Review

Yeah, not a bad campaign. It's pretty simplistic and attempts to artificially inflate the difficulty by spamming tanks and witches when it can, but not to an unmanageable degree, you can usually just play the strategic game and backtrack to kill the tanks when you need to. A nice enough challenge with... a weird sequence on chapter 4 which is a very light "puzzle" solving thingy which I imagine might confuse some people, but I figured it out pretty quickly. The bots will not be much help on this campaign and frequently get stuck or die due to bad navmesh, and well, unless you're clearing the path for them they will die anyways. The aesthetic is... I don't even know a word for it to be honest lol, but I find it charming. Interestingly despite the fact that 12 maps are listed to play, the campaign ends on chapter 5 with a gauntlet finale, which is odd, I wouldn't mind the campaign being a little bit longer, but 12 maps is probably too much for my liking, so.. not a terrible middle ground. I'm interested to see if the author will update this to include the other maps or not, which may change my opinion drastically, but that remains to be seen. Overall very average but somewhat charming campaign, not for everyone, a pass for most, but not bad for enthusiasts.

Review

Yeah, pretty rubbish troll campaign. The gimmick of this campaign is you have to deal with jockeys but your weapons get taken away from you when the map spawns them in, so you have no choice but to run the opposite direction, it's pretty unfun and frustrating.

Review

Wow, actually not a terrible hehe campaign. Feels like chenchen wanted to actually make a campaign that isn't just troll city. I will say the finale does overstay its welcome and drags on for far too long (about 20 minutes,) too many tank waves. The chapters were more or less fine; if a bit short and quite uninspired, although the skyscraper chapter was really cool, wish it was longer. Whilst not that great of a campaign, not terribly bad either, pretty average.

Review

Another typical troll campaign packed to the brim with tanks & witches, it's what you'd expect from a hehe campaign, there's not much fun to be had here unless you enjoy dying over and over.

Review

Typical troll campaign, not as infuriatingly difficult as some of the other hehe campaigns, but has its fair share of trolling and bs. I could see this being fun for people who enjoy this kind of stuff but eh, I'd skip it.

Review

Excellent rendition of No Mercy. A fresh feel to an ancient campaign, it still "feels" like No Mercy but is clearly quite different in many ways. Definitely worth a play.

Review

I've played this campaign countless times now and it's indeed an excellent re-work of Dead Center to fit a Christmas theme. It has no issues worth talking about, it works flawlessly and houses quite a few secrets for the players to find which is nice. Definitely worth a play if you somehow haven't played this campaign before.

Review

I was expecting this to just be another "change the skybox and call it a day" campaign, but was pleasantly surprised to see that the author bothered to make new paths for the survivors to take. It gives the campaign a completely different feel and is pretty kickass. I'm sure there's other small changes that aren't worth noting, but yeah, it's nice to see a somewhat different Dark Carnival.

Review (REPOST FROM SOURCE)

An absolute classic, a campaign I've played well over 50 times, and no wonder, it's perfect in my opinion, I don't see a single problem with this campaign, great map design, pacing, navmesh etc. It's great! Can recommend as a Valve quality campaign.

Review

VPK is corrupted.

Review

Yeah this campaign is mainly a panic event simulator, but it's a competent one. Somewhat repetitive but I didn't mind, I enjoyed.

Review

Fantastic campaign with a unique aesthetic. Pretty edgy and that's fine, heh. Perfect for Halloween if you're into the gritty stuff.

Review

Really sick facelift of Dark Carnival. Lots of love poured into this campaign, and it shows. Many secrets to be found along the way, and interesting changes... so enjoy!

Review

Yup, it's Swamp Fever with Hard Rain's storm gimmick, and it fits the campaign very well, has a nice aesthetic to it.

Review

Does not show up in the campaign add-ons menu

Review

Nice little campaign. Has a unique aesthetic and is short & sweet. No issues encountered.

Review

Very short & very easy campaign, one chapter long. The map design is fine and thankfully the author addressed the major issues with this map so it's a lot more playable now. Finale is extremely easy, so... yeah.

Review

Yeah this campaign is pretty broken. So on chapter 1 you pickup a large crate which completely blocks your view, I tried turning down the FOV but that didn't help either, so it was impossible to see anything, In retrospect *maybe* thirdpersonshoulder would've helped but that's besides the point; what kind of design decision is this? At first I thought the saferoom was broken, but no you do indeed move this large crate which the game doesn't tell you to do btw, very, very silly. The saferoom transitions are extremely janky. The bots sometimes spawn out of bounds, I spawned hanging on a ledge in chapter 3 and the bots couldn't get to me.. Speaking of bots the navmesh is pretty bad, especially on chapter 1, in fact bots are pretty much useless on this campaign, don't play with them. Now there is clearly some effort put into this campaign with the design of the levels, but unfortunately it's extremely unpolished which really holds it back. It's a pretty short campaign as well clocking in at 20 minutes maximum, 15 minutes if you're quick.

Review

Yep, it's basically what you'd expect from chenchen. Troll tank spawns gallore, intentionally made to annoy the player, minimal effort. Hard pass.

Review

You know the saying "some things are better left on the cutting room floor"? I think it applies very well to this campaign. I can say that I personally enjoyed DBD Too, DC and Extended a lot more than this version. It feels like everything in this particular version just exists to annoy the player, the forced infected spawns, the random incaps on chapter 1, the god-awful "don't let 50 zombies in" panic event on chapter 3 is back, and even worse than the DC version (or was it Too?); you have to start the chapter all over again if you fail. This version also I must say feels a lot less traditional than your typical L4D campaign, there's a lot more tasks for you to do, which; once you do once, you'll basically be able to speedrun all of them.
Playing with bots is an absolute nightmare and highly not recommended (the panic event to bring the cooler up is super slow on chapter 3 with 1 person,) you absolutely need human players for this campaign if you want to have any fun. Speaking of the 50 zombies panic event, you have to holdout for about over a minute I believe, and yeah, it's very tough, because even the zombies that spawn inside the mall; I'm pretty sure they can also enter the trigger to add to the counter if they simply run through the door.

Hank is made extremely annoying in this campaign (even though I'm sure that was the intention, and well, he already kinda was heh.) 
With all that being said though, it is interesting to see what could of been, although I think the re-works are far better than this version for sure, and a lot more user-friendly, I think the events on this campaign require a lot more team co-ordination, especially on higher difficulties. Oh and one little issue, the truck model on the finale is missing. So yeah, in conclusion, avoid playing with bots, and play if you have a competent team that isn't afraid to face a bit of trail and error.

Review

Meh, pretty decent campaign. Nothing I was overly impressed about, but it gets the job done. I have played these maps already from an older version (they're slightly different now but it's mostly the same.) A pretty standard series of maps with cool layouts and a bit of trolling from the author, nothing too severe or rage-inducing though, in some ways they can add to the experience. I have nothing insightful to say about the maps, nothing really stood out to me so... yeah, no issues found.

.

For some reason this campaign seems to lock my server up after a map reload or two, it doesn't explicitly crash it though, which is odd.

Review

Very cool campaign, a very unique theme and very mysterious in nature, the environments are super cool, and are the most enjoyment to be had in the campaign. The only bad thing about this campaign is the navmesh, it needs some serious work, both bot survivors and infected struggle due to the terrible navmesh. But other than that, it is a very worthwhile campaign, such a cool aesthetic.

Review

Fun reimagining of The Parish, the only let down is that there's no proper finale, it just ends in a saferoom, and that's it. But either way it's still very fun, and the way the maps are all linked together with the new areas is so seamless and nostalgic.

Review

Really creative campaign! Such a simple but effective aesthetic, it works really well. The wand gimmick is pretty cool I guess, even if I'm not a fan of being forced to use certain weapons, it fits this campaign. Map design is on point, nice length, doesn't overstay its welcome, yeah, 10/10 I like it!

Review

Absurdly & and pointlessly difficult campaign. Compared to the original, it's "shorter" alright, but that's only in map length, because you will be dying far more often on this campaign compared to its predecessor. Tons of troll tank spawns (in the saferoom as well..), impossible unless you're playing on a modded server that favours the survivors, a huge guessing game ensures on chapter 2 onwards, as you have to guess the correct invisible path whilst smokers try and kill you... awful. The finale is just a super long survival section whilst an infinite array of tanks spawn from the centre of the map. Unfun, boring, unoriginal, waste of time.

Review

Well I can't say i expected much else from the sequel to a campaign I already didn't like, but I think I enjoyed myself a bit more this time around. Now of course, you're going to get trolled a lot, most of them are pretty predictable though. And yes, to be perfectly clear, this is absolutely a troll campaign, not to sadistic levels like "hehe" but a troll campaign nonetheless. Everything is actually pretty well balanced in this campaign (unless you're playing with bots lol, yeah don't) and the finale even has a selectable difficulty which is really nice, and it's not too absurdly difficult either. My only grievance is I'm generally not a fan of non-traditional campaigns and this clearly is not intended for single-player, but it's not a terrible campaign.
To conclude, don't play this campaign solo, bring a party of 4 preferably, and only play if you're willing to get trolled a bit. You wont understand the humour because it's intended for a Chinese audience.

Review

Pretty bad campaign. Chapter 1 starts off alright enough, although there's a weird pick-a-door thing going on which is impossible unless you understand Chinese and the question it asks. You will notice the lack of detail on the maps straight away, which isn't really a problem for me. Either, way chapter 1 is the most straight forward and easy of the bunch, point A to point B. Chapter 2 is quite the slog unless you know how to bunnyhop, which will save you a looot of time. A very long boring highway, walking in a straight line with some obstacles along the way. 
Chapter 3 is a pretty bad chapter. You start off by doing a mini holdout section for a bit and then you progress to another holdout section, this one has a lot more infected to deal with, so much so that the server will start to lag. You will most likely get trolled at the end of this chapter by the pick-a-door bit & the troll tank spawn at the end, have fun.
The finale is meh, a lot more infected to deal with this time around, with good co-ordination you'll do fine.
Overall a simplistic but rather boring campaign with pointless difficulty spikes & trolls. I'd skip this.

Review

Very good campaign, the use of custom assets really sets it apart from the others, and whilst it certainly has a traditional formula, it's quite refreshing to see something other than the typical Valve assets. The environments are great, honestly very pretty campaign (except the skybox on the finale) and plays pretty well (except the really narrow doorways, they're a bit awkward.) The only issue I encountered was the elevators; they're way too cramped for four people, and you have to push the bots onto two of them, including the escape, which is again, very awkward. Nevertheless a very enjoyable traditional experience, definitely recommend giving it a go, as simple as it is.
