Return To Town

In Return To Town the Survivors must make their way back to the boat across rooftops and through a violent storm.

During this chapter you will have the two choices: travel by roof or in the swamp. Using the rooftops is generally faster; however, many of the Special Infected will try to knock you off. Going through the water may be favored, although the water slows the Survivors down significantly. This slowing effect also applies to the Infected team.

When the hurricane hits with full force, microphone chat can be severely affected due to the way the audio channels layer; this is likely an intended effect by Valve in order to maintain an aura of realism. While you can still use the mic, do not expect fellow Survivors to hear you clearly or at all sometimes. This effect is lessened indoors.

Trivia

 * If you get incapacitated in the speed boat halfway through the level, and the AI comes to save you, they won't be able to exit the rims of the speed boat. This is probably because the developers didn't code the rims of the speed boat to tell the AI to jump over them but sometimes if you go too far ahead then the AI will teleport to your location.
 * In the starting safe room some of the floor is flooded by water, the flood has gotten worse since the Survivors have gone back to the boat after they get the fuel.
 * After you reach the town you can see that the flood water has reached through most of the woodwork of the houses and most of the houses are Hardrain.jpged except for the one that hover above the ground.
 * In the Xbox 360 version, the game audio will come out of the TV, and if you are using headphones then all you would hear are your fellow survivors and you could communicate with ease.
