Notes

  • The original map was made four years before the release of Left 4 Dead and created for the mod "No More Room in Hell" for Half Life 2.
  • This campaign contains some new types of Crescendo Events.
  • Some ideas were scrapped at different points. For example, the campaign was supposed to have six maps.
  • The campaign contains a lot of custom graffiti; almost all were made by donators for the campaign.
  • Its name may be a take on the movie name "Dawn of the Dead".
    • It may also be a reference to Evil Dead 2, as its official title is Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn.
  • The campaign is based off of the 2004 movie "Dawn of the dead" the mall in the campaign is the same as the one from the movie and the survivors enter the mall the same way by smashing a window to a store front open with a toilet.
