    Since no one's made a thread about it, I love this game. It's free and it's awesome and gives a free TF2 hat. There's only 1 campaign for now, but the one out is pretty epic. Definitely worth the download imo.

    just beat the game on insane, sigh. it's bugged and only gives you credit if you're alive. so none of us got the 7/7. we're all at 5/7 or 6/7.

    at least i think it's a bug, cause i have normal campaign finished and i was dead at the end of at least 2 of the missions.

    The SDK is free so people have already been working on custom campaigns for it. People have already found 'unfinished' survival type games in the files, so we should see some interesting maps soon. You can also create basic maps using the tilegen.

    1. Start Alien Swarm
    2. Input "sv_cheats 1" in to the console
    3. Input "asw_tilegen" in to the console
    4. ???
    5. Profit!

    It's really pretty easy to use the tilegen too. Can set up a map using that, then open it up in the AS SDK and add in finishing touches with Hammer.

    I wonder if the developers are gonna add more campaigns and stuff or if its up to the community to do it. =P

    I'm sure they will. It was a alright game. Not a fan of the over the top shooting though.

    They're actually not bad, I find firstperson a bit more challenge, of course. The only thing that sucks really is when you roll, and not having a sky/ceiling.
