      Looks like I forgot to review this. An short and easy campaign, with average design and details, which would be a nice choice to relax after playing a long or hard campaign. There does be some issues, as an classic example, I can easily get to the top of the invisible wall in the finale, so that the infected (except Smokers) can do nothing to me.

      Perfect campaign. Just one issue is that the bots like to fall out of the chopper on the finale, which ends up getting them killed. But other than that pure perfection. Amazing map design, love the feel to it. Only a few minor botnav errors which are nothing really. No glitches/bugs. Bravo, really feels like a Valve campaign.

      Great old map

      I loved this campaign since the first time i played it. Just the setting and environment for me personally is so alluring. The campaign is short ( only 3 maps) but is a great experience.
      Crashing was a problem before which is why i  had to stop playing it, however i downloaded it again recently and it works flawlessly, even with the huge amount of skins i have for weapons and some characters. I have also noticed major needed changes, such as in the finale. There is an ammo pile now and plenty of weapons and health kits. A ladder is placed outside the trailers too in case planks break. In conclusion, love this map and one of my personal favorites.

      Pros:

      Good layout
      Great campus design
      Nice events
      Maps not overly long despite only having 3
      Lots of throwables

      Cons:

      The threat of crashing.
      Coach didn't want to climb the ladder in the finale to get to the chopper.
      Couldn't find ammo pile in finale, just a gun on another trailer.

      Conclusion:

      The gameplay of the campaign is pretty good, but I have to take off for the crashing. Putting a crash warning is not a good substitution for actually fixing the problem. There was nothing I saw in this campaign that I haven't seen in others that worked fine. Probably still would've given it a 4, but then the finale didn't have good enough access to guns and ammo.
      • Thanks for your feedback. Regarding the crash warning: when I compiled the map, there were no errors and no indicator that a crash would occur for people. Like many other add-on campaigns I've encountered, sometimes having several add-ons activated at the same time conflict for some reason. When I've disabled other add-ons, I haven't encountered any crashes (this is true both of my own campaign as well as others). If you've builts custom maps before and have an idea how to fix crashes due to add-ons not playing nicely with each other, I would truly appreciate any advice.

      Pros:

      Let's start out with the school setting, which is really nice!
      
      This is not to hard, but not to easy
      
      The Finale is really challenging, that's what i like about finale's 
      
      The supplies in the map is well distributed
      
      The campaign is not to short, but not too long

      Cons:

      None-This is one of the campains i always played in the past, and i saw no flaws what so ever.

      Conclusion:

      I can easily compare this to Hard Rain (My favorite l4d2 campaign) it's nice and challenging, fun to play, and awesome in general.
      The layout of the school is really great, and convienet i might even say.
      
      I love using coach all the time on this map, since he used to be a gym teacher for a highschool.
      • Finally coming back to this page after a LONG hiatus. Thanks for your comments. I'm actually picking mapping back up and finally working on the prologue map for this campaign once again.

      Pros:

      Interesting from the little I could get through (see cons).

      Cons:

      This map crashes the game ALL the time and does so without an error coming up. If updated to fix this critical bug, I think the campaign could be quite good.

      Conclusion:

      Unplayable due to crashing issues. Tested multiple times with the same result.

      Pros:

      + Good details.
      + Nice map layouts.
      + First hall design was amazing.
      + High school areas really felt great.
      + Nice realistic setting.
      + Finale idea was also good.
      + Navigation of AI was working quite well.
      + Good spread of supplies and ammo.
      + No bugs I could recognize.
      + More than enough throwables during the gameplay.

      Cons:

      - AI navigation though had problems with Jockeys.
      - The alarm part was frustrating because there was too less space.
      - Finale was somehow very hard with the waters.
      - Finale chopper saving was hard to reach.
      - Two tanks at once in the finale in such a small area.
      - I honestly wouldn't call this suburbs.

      Conclusion:

      Well it was a very good and a bit short campaign. The maps were placed together very well and also during the gameplay no bugs appeared. The only problem is that there was a bit too less space if you ask me.

      Pros:

      ineresting and believable rendition of a school campus
      good level design throughout
      nice use of weather
      bots behave themselves nicely
      excellent finale scenario/execution

      Cons:

      too short, takes about 30 minutes
      bots don't always like to pick up pills/adrenaline
      no laser sights
      no m60 or grenade launcer
      there should be teacher zombies XD

      Conclusion:

      my first playthough of this campiagn i was a little underwhelmed (because i just ran through). but the next time and every time after, i had a ball 
      i would love to see a prequel map added to this campaign but even without it i recommend this for download.

      Pros:

      -Greatly designed and detailed Map 1
      -Great custom textures and props
      -Finale arena is interesting

      Cons:

      -Map 2 lacks atmosphere and feels bland

      Conclusion:

      Not bad, but not great. Map 2 is where it lacks the creativity. Solid campaign, but not a must download.

      Pros:

      Nice setting. Vaguely reminiscent of Condemned : Criminal Origins, or perhaps even Silent Hill.
      
      Children of Infected : Support Group banner. Interesting thought.
      
      I enjoyed the theater crescendo event.
      
      Awesome finale. I like how the lights suddenly come on when the pilot is on his way. I also enjoyed the distortion effect when the rain became heavy.

      Cons:

      Short, but sweet.

      Conclusion:

      This is just a blast to play. I didn't expect it to be nearly as fun as it was. I'll keep this map around for a replay later.

      Pros:

      - Very unique rooms and environments
      -Great setting for a map
      -easy to follow. never got lost.
      -excellent placements of items. found things just when I needed them

      Cons:

      -ending was good but would have preferred to run to the helicopter
      -second map non-stop alarm was tedious with 3 bots.
      -maps were a little too short for my tastes
      -too much bile available to pick up

      Conclusion:

      Phenomenal map.. always wanted to play one in a school environment like this. It was short but sweet. Difficulty spikes in some parts but definitely worth the download!

      8.2

      Pros:

      -The theme of the level is great,
      
      -Bots work great
      
      -Excellent weapon distribution
      
      -The intro was good, I enjoyed looking through the zombie filled school before I start
      

      Cons:

      -The small environments can be tedious 
      
      -The second maps alarm lasted to long so zombie hordes just kept mauling me down
      
      
      

      Conclusion:

       The map design was very detailed, some of the best I have seen, so it's easy to see the effort you put into this.
      A big problem is that special infected can beat you senseless in the small environment, especially in the finale , a tank can corner you easily in situation like this. I like this map, I can't wait for the prologue map. good job :3

      9.3

      Pros:

       + Very fun.
       + Supplies are well placed, so you don't run out of ammo if you have common sense.
       + Bots pick up items, which seems to be rare upon Custom Campaigns/Maps
       + The setting of it was very well-done.

      Cons:

       - Infected tend to ignore you when your in plain sight.
       - Roll-up door button requires a few presses to activate.
       - At the rescue, Rochelle and Nick wouldn't move from the lower trailer where the radio is.

      Conclusion:

      Very fun map. I recommend it. You still have your glitches, but you can't exterminate them all. I give this a 93.
