And I felt the style and the theme of those maps also fit one another.

The environment was kind of refreshing to play and didn't see any textures in error, length was pretty decent and not repetitive. But I saw it's put onto the list of the top 50 custom map by Olde custom campaign guide, rated quite high that time if I'm not wrong, so I gave it a try. I was a little skeptical to try on this at first 'cause of the other map made by goanna, the death-island, which is a puzzle type of map. Frankly I was kinda surprised how well-made this map is.

Just completed this lately but sadly didn't manage to record our first playthrough. Not gonna review about how the bots are doing. Clearly a lot of effort has gone into this map which is great, however, the environment, constant events, hordes, long maps, multiple witches/tanks a map just gave a repetitive impression amongst my team and I and we just wanted to finish it.ĭespite this map not being my cup of tea and I wouldn't recommend it to others, I see this dev has potential and would still be interested to try out any other campaigns by themĬompleted in expert realism with friends. If tanks didnt glitch and then die, there were sometimes 2+ tanks a map, bit ridiculous, especially for expert Tanks seem to always glitch and then die elevators in finale, corridors in map 1, long periods in sewers with zombies from all directions My team and I found the maps to be quite boring overall, nothing really made it, its own Don't forget to read the section "Valve's Missing Content Fix " of this guide.- Finale was way too long before reaching the radio.
Left 4 dead 2 gamemaps update#
For non-local servers, update your campaign to server's version (if necessary) and follow step 4 above. And, of course, make sure that all players have the same version of a campaign (as a general rule, allways use VPKs from the same source). To correct such errors, the local host should open the console and write "sv_consistency 0" (without quotes).

Then copy the VPK to the addons folder of Left 4 Dead 2, which is normally located in the following path: C:\Program files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\addons.
Left 4 dead 2 gamemaps install#
To install via GameMaps, go to the campaign page, download the file and unzip it. The campaigns here are directed to GameMaps [but you can also look for them on Steam Workshop. This guide will be revised and updated constantly. All campaigns in this guide were played/finalised on expert realism, so there is no impossibility.įurthermore, from the Top 50 I selected the 15 best campaigns (the Top 15 list, with ambient screenshots), and put more suggestions of good and playable custom campaigns/maps. We must not confuse difficulty (depends on team) with impossibility (depends on map). The degree of difficulty of a campaign (its events and the frequency of spawning hordes and special/common infected) does not interfere in its gameplay note, because this basically depends on team that is playing, its tactical capacity (teamwork) and the difficulty level of the game. The presence of unsolved bugs, crashes or conflicts was also taken into account. The campaigns were evaluated according to three criteria: graphics (detail of 3D models, textures, design, lighting, etc), originality and gameplay on expert realism. A quick search on GameMaps [or Steam Workshop shows hundreds of custom campaigns, and in this guide I selected those that can be considered as the Top 50.
