Survival Pack Explained

( 0 Votes )

There has been a lot of confusion about what exactly the upcoming Survival Pack contains. The official XBox Magazine had a chat with Valve's Chet Faliszek and he cleared up some pending answers...

According to the interview with Chet, The Survival Pack will include "15 choice locations" from their standard campaigns. That is not all though. A new Survival map will also be shipped, dubbed: The Last Stand. "With nowhere else to go, our four survivors have retreated to a lighthouse on a point for their final stand.

Survival Mode, places the four survivors on an empty map. They then have the chance to prepare themselves for the endless wave upon wave of infected that will surround them. Once prepared and ready for action, a simple button is pressed and the battle for survival begins.

During the battle, you can expect to fight off up to four Hunters at once. Chances are you might even have to fight of multiple Tanks and Smokers. This fantastic new addition to Left 4 Dead will also sport some new music and a few new survivor quips.

Along with the new Survival mode, we will also get our hands on the official version of Dead Air and Death Toll in versus. We were worried that the levels wouldn't be updated and fixed like the current campaigns have been fixed. Chet assures us: "Both [campaigns] have been heavily modified based on feedback we received from players on No Mercy and Blood Harvest". Chet wars about the area in Death Toll with the news van, outside the theatre "is one of the most chaotic Versus maps in the game. The mix of indoor and outdoor spaces makes every entrance and exit a battle."

We are all looking forward to the upcoming DLC from Valve and by the looks of it, it is going to be everything we have ever expected from the game. Now the only question remains, will the Official SDK be shipped with the upcoming DLC? We can only hope.
