Chapter 4: Military Outpost

You have escaped Riverside City, your next challenge is to reach the outpost. Separation is not an option, you will fail.

The survivors quickly find out that the quarantine failed. The scribblings on the wall mention a chemical in the water as a possible cause for the infection.

This map does feature an altering path which will sometimes place the survivors on the street after leaving the tunnel and other times on a sky bridge into the warehouse.

The original map (L4D1 Dead City) was cut into 2 maps to support Scavenge.

Crescendo Events:

 * Tank Scavenge - There is a main battle tank that needs gas. Fill the tank with 13 gas tanks and it will drive down the road and blow up the barrier.

Survivor Tips:

 * You will find several defib kits in this map, chances are you will need them during the scavenge event.


 * The scavenge event is deceptively difficult. People often get separated because they think it's easy only to regret it. Keep in groups of at least 2.


 * Beware of the exploding barrels throughout the map. Some explosions can call in hordes and often at the wrong time.

Versus Tips:

 * Hit them right away and then try and reset a trap for the survivors at the end of the first turn in the tunnel. The barrels, if shot, can call the horde as well as the alarm car in front of the truck. If done right, you can hurt the survivors and run them out of ammo.


 * The Versus path generally will run the survivors over the skybridge instead of the street. If this happens try to charger or jockey players through a window from in front.  Smokers should spawn in behind the survivors in the room next to the bridge and attempt to smoke people through the windows to their death.


 * The scavenge area lacks a lot of great height ambush points. Look to use the trees in the road or plan on hiding behind walls and objects at survivor height.
