Nu custom campaigns in Left 4 Dead

Vincent (Gamer_V)
Left 4 Dead heeft een patch gekregen waardoor je nu custom campaigns kan spelen. Nu is "nu" misschien een te groot woord aangezien die eerst afgemaakt zullen moeten worden maar het kan nooit lang meer duren voordat we de Dawn of the Dead-campagne kunnen spelen. Wellicht ten overvloede: Dit is alleen voor de pc-versie, custom content kan niet op de 360. Volledige patchnotes hieronder.
