Description
The chopper where our 4 survivors escaped in The Parish campaign, has fallen into harms way. Co-pilot of the chopper was not immune and started to turn into infected. The other pilot got bitten by the infected one but managed to land the chopper. However. the chopper soon exploded, caused by the rough landing in the woods. Survivors need to scavenge what they can from the vicinity of the chopper and get moving. There is a long way ahead through Open Road, that starts from Cliffside swamps. Are you ready to survive?

For more detailed story and if you want to know how i did this, have a look at the campaign feature page http://ics-base.net/openroad/

I have also released the development files of the campaign 14th of March 2020. You can take a look at the source files and see how this was done by downloading them from here: http://ics-base.net/openroad/release/openroad_dev_release.zip

- Over a year long project that had it's share of problems along the way
- 6 complete and original maps: Cliffs, Path, City, Forest, Salvation and Aftermath
- Coop and Versus modes available on maps 1-5!

Cool map, seemingly random crescendo events back to back are definitely very off-putting and confusing at times, could be better spaced out but relatively vanilla l4d2 experience which you cant help but appreciate... 7.5/10

Yeah its true, saferoom is never safe untill it has been checked. If you enter the 1st room only and face towards the door, they can spawn behind you or if you just entered the saferoom, they could have already spawned and roll at you from there. It was sort of funny to me so i left that in. The really funny part is that if you face the door, close it and you'll hear them spawn while the map ends. Thanks for playing!

Infected can spawn in the ending saferoom in chapter 3. Great map, fits the game's aesthetic quite well, which I really like. 4/5

Idk what's up w the double SI spawn rate halfway through the 4th level, but it gave me and my siblings a lot of laughs. Decent map overall.

I dont share this experience and most of the others who have played it dont share it either. I've played this through multiple times. Just couple months ago for nostalgic reason. I agree that the 4th map can be challenging due to double jockeys and eploration may not be the best idea.

maybe you should play it yourself again then. because i wouldnt wanna. the 1-2 chapter was kinda okay. then the 3-4 it's just bullshxt. a horde comes in and i even spammed grenade launcher which has 7 ammo and at least a pipe bomb, the zombies keep appearing. especially in the 4th, we just cleared a massive horde then suddenly that crow bullshxt that causes a horde again. throwing boomer bile and killing them wouldnt change anything. z_common_limit 120 ahh. trust me im not hating it for the funnies, this map is just dogshxt. even glubtastic felt more like an actual map than troll

I dont think thats totally accurate. Horde spawns are controlled by the director within the game. There is one extra event in the 3rd map, which causes alarm and thus extra horde spawn if you open certain shop door. However thas not in the route towards end of the map. The third map does have another panic event but there are no endless hordes in it. Towards the end, there is that final run to the saferoom with endless horde. It is what it is.
