I don't have a problem with this campaign being dark most of the time. In fact, I find the atmosphere and map design to be superb. But the last two chapters have some serious pathfinding issues for bots. Another mod that has no respect for the single players. Also, there is no right for the finale to be so dark too. One of the worst gaming experience with custom campaigns 🤮

for some reason, when i enter the basement of the first campaign, it becomes impossible to see.

i'm not saying that it gets really dark or difficult to see, but that the entire playable area is solid black like closing your eyes in real life.

Normally I'm a fan of dim dark lighting in campaigns, but in this case, it's just black. And yes, my flashlight was on

I cleared it by myself. It's not hard The sound of the train is scary for some reason

I played whit my girlfriend and this is a super fun and detailed map, there is a little bit of special infected being spammed but its not anything out of this world. The map is super detailed and my honest review is a solid 9/10.

People complaining about the map being dark are the same who hates being flashbanged haha.

Before you whine the Map is so dark, look at the Campaign title...... Its up to you to if you use Flashlight mod OR...... Keep your eyes peeled. XD

The only hard part for me in this Campaign are indoors especially MAP 1 and 3, it is really dark unless you fire your gun but for outdoors MAP 2 AND 4 FINALE, not so much. All Maps aren't lengthy.

As for 4 FINALE - HORDE > TANK > HORDE > 2 TANKS > TRAIN

Be mindful to your surroundings, because the title speaks for itself. XD

8.5/10

the map's name is blackout basement why everyone complaining about light?

整体节奏不错，难度适中，也没有阴间的场景设计，扣掉的两分一分扣在绝大部分场景太暗，暗得伸手不见五指；另一分扣在part1流程太长。

shit map

That was a good one, and cool metro station finale

53 min 4/5

Did not care for this one. Would it have killed you to add just a couple light sources here and there? This is the darkest campaign I've ever played, even with the optional lighting crescendos.

My game just keep crashing every time I boot it up?

玩不了一点，第二关卡得跟ppt似的

Played with "ZBS" (sp mutation) mod on Expert: that is just perfect!
I wondering what it will be in vanilla game with same difficulity but with all party in!

Score: 82 / 100

A bit too dark for my taste, but the quality felt high and consistent throughout the campaign.
Thank you for the experience

7/10，又暗又窄

개쓰레기 맵

Some errors in the tunnels, otherwise really nice little campaign.

Playthrough in "Realism - Expert": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2tJvtsOQsU

BOT do not using the map, the train track groove be stop bot finish last level.

Rating: 7.5/10, Difficulty: 8/10, Played on expert realism in single player, Length: 1 hour, Restarted once because bill got railed by the train.

Map 1 is really hard for the first few time, i end up abandoning my first run and prob got stucked like 40 minutes on map 1 cause im really lost (tips: dont open the light its not worth the risk to summon a horde just to see brighter). The other map are considerably pretty easy.

Finale is also quite easy, there are a lot of space to run around.

挺好玩的~~~

그냥저냥 무난..

Blackout Basement. Quality: 6/10, Difficulty: 8/10, Length: Medium-Long. Played On Expert

Blackout Basement is a mediocre Custom Map overall in its current state, with very poor balancing and pacing across its four Chapters.

The first Chapter of Blackout Basement is easily the hardest in the campaign, and it artificially inflates the relative difficulty of the entire campaign as a result.

If you can survive Chapter 1, Chapter 2 is a lot easier overall, Chapter 3 is a breeze, and the Finale is very easy.

The issues with Chapter 1 are multifold, with the Chapter being extremely long, mostly pitch-black, cramped, full of nigh-unavoidable Witches, an early Tank is placed in the streets just outside of the spawn area (which can potentially cripple your team's health for the rest of the long Chapter), 95% of the Chapter only contains Tier 1 weapons, and there’s little to no health, explosives, ammo, or supplies of any other kind provided.

See my full review in the Discussions.

This one is lovely and fun to play! However, I believe the best way to play this mod as to make it close to the L4D's lore is to play together with these mods:

- Common Infected Only Mutations (TommyCD1)

- Either No Bile Jar Spawn (TelekineticCreeper) or No Defib, Adren and Bile Jar (comiv), the latter one is just for those who want L4D1 experience.

Because the "Green Flu" pandemic was started in Philadelphia, which is literally the same setting as this custom map. Thus, not having special infected variants before the "2 weeks after the outbreak" period and suspiciously mass-produced bile jar would make more sense.

9/10

Good cam

8/10. too dark, a little boring
