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!
- Scavenge and Survival modes available on map 6, created specially for this purpose

i've heard the story of saferoom3 not having ammo inside of it, I was kidding in the last message. Yes, this is intentional. You get a bunch zombies in front of you before you can progress and find ammo. Pick up new gun from saferoom or use the bullets/pellets you have. Your choice. The ammo is at the building downstairs ahead, in the same building as tthe door crescendo event is.

Thanks. I can imagine the map 4 is very controversial thing but iits actually more easier as the faster you move. There's only double specials up to mid point of the map, they stop coming in pairs after that. Also, some other survivor must have stolen all the ammo... :happymeat:

Pretty good campaign! I liked it, and it had a nice finale, unlike most custom campaigns. I was worried I had to fight in the corn, but it's all good. The only things I didn't like was how the third saferoom had no ammo inside, and map 4 had the doubled up specials. I know it's intentional, but it still stinks.

This campaign offers the same style gameplay as any other Valve made official campaign. It has no unbeatable maps or spots. But It is not a walk in the park either.

If you cant beat it on the first try, try again. Same way you managed to beat Valve made campaigns too.

The specialty in this campaign in map 4 is the limit of 2max same enemies instead of normal cap of 1. Meaning, there can be 2 jockeys, 2 hunters, 2 smokers or 2 chargers at the same time, but only 4 special infected at once. So there can be 2 jockeys, 1 hunter and 1 charger making your life difficult but not 2 of each one.

Map 4 was intentionally made like this. The more time you waste in the map 4, the harder your life will become. So keep moving, while you still have your legs, as the punch line of the campaign says.

I'm pretty amazed that this has gotten 90 000+ unique visitors and 37 000+ players in 6 years at the workshop! Thank you all!

very challenging and fun map! not so much a fan of the fact that there were several occasions were multiple jockeys were spawning at the same time. but I did really appreciate this hybrid mix of swamp fever, hard rain, and blood harvest. loved the story addition and the creative design choices, would recommend!

you may like this if you like swamp fever/last part of hard rain..but it's absolutely not for me... i even seen 2 jockey spawn at almost the same time lmao

Either there's some fun difficulty to this campaign or my friends and I are just idiots, was a fun time and a nice campaign.

No problem. I'm glad you had it fixed.
