Swamp Fever

Swamp Fever is Left 4 Dead 2's fourth campaign (originally its third - depending on whether a player has the DLC campaign).

It spans four chapters and takes place in Louisiana-type bayous and swamplands near a shanty town called Village En Marais.

Chronologically it follows on from Dark Carnival and picks up The Survivors story in wake of Nick shooting the helicopter pilot because "he wasn't doing a very good job once he turned into a zombie".

The campaign creates two Left 4 Dead running gags: the zombie helicopter pilot (Crash Course) and the rescue boat (Death Toll).

Once they have shaken themselves out following the helicopter crash, The Survivors find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere with their only obvious route to safety taking them through swamps, a gator farm and hardscrabble settlements overrun with Infected. Along the way they encounter the remains of a recently crashed commercial jet, a new discovered breed of Infected in the form of Mud Men (or Mudders) and the decayed grandeur of a pre-bellum Plantation House.

The campaign culminates in a finale wherein The Survivors must hold out until rescued by a fishing boat captained by Virgil - a likable and public-spirited Cajun.

Swamp Fever is the only campaign to contain Mud Men (a class of Uncommon Infected) who are agile, hard to spot and blur the player's vision with mud when attacking. Similar to Jockeys, they move by scuttling along on all fours but they are of a bigger size and so are easier to hit.
