Campaign Description...
“Fort Noesis L4D2 version”
Great writing there...
An old campaign, dating back to the L4D1 era... While it is nothing too special. Tis still a classic, and still a good however...

Final Verdict
Recommended
Fort Noesis is an old one... and for people like myself who play far too many of these mods... you should probably be able to tell right away as well... Maps back then had this kind of universal style that is unmistakeable... Not that it is a bad thing... But it does make it stand out far less when it looks and feels just like 50 other mods all within the same era of creation...
I honestly don't have much to say... it looks average and run of the mill, and plays as such as well...
The finale also has that feel to it... Very much No Mercy-ish, as many L4D1 mods did...
That glitch though... I don't quite understand how that happened... I am aware that the Better (but not at all) bot mod can cause this... but I don't, nor ever, have used it... I had no mods enabled that could possibly cause that... and I could not replicate it either...
Very strange indeed... But that happens when you are not the author... I should point this out real quick... there has been a lot of older mods being posted by a single person lately... Sometimes fixing them up, sometimes breaking them apart... So I can not guarantee that any of them posted by this guy will be up to snuff...
Either way... Average campaign... nothing to make it stand out, which is both and good...
