Dead Center

Dead Center is a new campaign in Left 4 Dead 2. It is the first campaign in the game's story arc. According to the game's developers, the campaign takes place in Savannah, Georgia, a city that has not yet been hit by the Infection. The Survivors' path will lead them through a shopping mall at some point, and the escape vehicle used will be a muscle car.

Trivia

 * The campaign poster is the only Left 4 Dead 2 poster that features close combat weapons in it.
 * Dead Center is the third daylight campaign in game to be unveiled ever, though, chronologically, it is the first daylight campaign.
 * The scene with the stairs and the helicopters leaving from the Zombie Survival Guide trailer belongs to this campaign, as well as the elevator scene.
 * This campaign also has several unique lines for the round-menu(such as "Look" when a survivor is highlighted).
 * In the campaign poster, Coach has a Machete, while Ellis has a Chainsaw, Nick has an Axe, while Rochelle holding both a Katana and Chainsaw, dual-wielding melee weapons, which is not possible in-game.
 * In the campaign poster, Ellis' left arm is not fully drawn. But, still, some may think that his left hand is behind Nick or in his pocket (perhaps, to take a pipe-bomb or pills), making it possible for Nick's arm to appear as though it does not exist further than the sleeve.
 * The tagline is a reference to the constant price-cuts employed by major chain stores to attract customers.
 * Also, like Dark Carnival, the tagline had been suggested on internet forums several times before reveal.
 * This campaign might be in reference to the survival horror video game Dead Rising, or movie Dawn of the Dead, both of which takes place in shopping malls.
 * This campaign precedes the Dark Carnival campaign, as in the beginning of Dark Carnival, the Survivors are heard talking about their escape from the mall, indicating that it took place immediately prior. The completion achievement for this campaign, also goes first in the achievement list, followed by Dark Carnival, Swamp Fever, Hard Rain and The Parish.
 * Like every other campaign poster, Nick is placed next to Rochelle.
 * Although this campaign is set to take place in Savannah, the city has no three story malls. The closest something depicted in the poster is the "two story" Savannah Mall, which has an upper and lower level. It's curious that this game takes place in Savannah, but is placed outside of the actual town of Savannah.
 * The mall in the poster has more in common with the Dunwoody Mall in Atlanta, than any actual mall in the city of Savannah.
 * The Riot Infected could appear in this campaign. The other Uncommon Infected may be the "Fallen Survivor", judging from the in-game language files.
 * If you look at the poster, very carefully, you can see that there is a lot of mannequins laying in front, around, and standing behind the Surivors, and they seem to have large cuts and some with missing parts such as arms and legs. Perhaps, the Survivors were training on them.
