I’d been told that players generally felt that full campaigns were too long for multiplayer matches, and that they generally stuck around for about half of one. The new campaign is much shorter than the ones you’re used to, which is a deliberate decision on the part of Valve. A whole selection of new audio has been recorded especially for this campaign, and it’s sounding like the wit and patter that the game’s become known for will be in full effect. The new dialog was not fully in place yet, but I was informed that the helicopter pilot was infected, and Zoey’s been blamed for crashing it after she wigged out and shot him. With eight of us kicking seven shades of crap out of each other in Valve’s office, we played through the game multiple times, and before we begin with the details, let me just confirm this straight away - it’s very fun.Ĭrash Course begins shortly after the events of No Mercy, with The Survivors starting out by the crashed remains of the helicopter that had rescued them. It can of course be played in a straight Campaign mode, and it works with Survival mode, but the shorter length and more intense combat situations are geared toward competition. Read on for our full, exclusive preview of Crash Course.Īs already detailed, Crash Course is designed purely for Versus Play. Things are not yet completely finalized, so a few things I saw may be changed before release, but if you want some general impressions on this brand new campaign, you’re in the right place. As you may have already noticed from our earlier story, Valve has announced a brand new campaign for Left 4 Dead, known to the world as “Crash Course.” We were invited to Valve’s offices in Seattle to check the new levels out and give you the skinny on what to expect.
