Master the Left 4 Dead 2 finale! Learn how to coordinate Team A and Team B, manage fuel cans, and survive the onslaught of Infected and Tanks to escape.

Alright, this is it – the grand finale! This section is all about the final push to get that escape vehicle fueled up and get out of dodge. It's a team effort, so communication is key here. You'll be splitting into two teams, A and B, and working together to survive.

Walkthrough
  1. 1

    Where: Atrium and Racecar area.

    What: You'll be split into Team A and Team B. Team A's job is to search the atrium for Fuel Cans. Team B needs to stay near the Racecar to fill it up.

    What to do: Team A players, head out into the atrium and start collecting Fuel Cans. As you find them, pass them over to Team B. Team B, position yourselves by the Racecar and take the cans to fuel it up. Don't worry if you're not on Team A; any player can grab Fuel Cans and bring them to the car.

    Why this way: This setup prevents long treks for fuel and minimizes the risk of Spitters ambushing isolated players. Everyone pitching in makes the fueling process much faster.

  2. 2

    Where: First floor, near the stairwells and the Racecar.

    What: You'll see two stairwells leading to the second and third floors, accessible only from the first floor. Near the Racecar, there are stalls stocked with Medkits, Weapons, and Ammo. You'll also find Consumables and Grenades scattered around. Infected will be coming through the doors on the walls.

    What to do: Grab any supplies you need from the stalls – Medkits, weapons, ammo, consumables, and grenades are all available. Keep an eye on the doors for incoming Infected.

    Why this way: Having these supplies readily available near the fueling station is crucial for surviving the waves of Infected and the eventual Tank.

  3. 3

    Where: Throughout the atrium, near Fuel Cans.

    What: Fuel Cans are scattered around. You'll also encounter various Infected.

    What to do: Remember, DO NOT SHOOT THE FUEL CANS. If you accidentally shoot one, don't panic – they'll respawn where they were first found. Your main goal is to keep your teammates safe, especially if they're alone. Try to prevent Special Infected from ambushing any Survivor.

    Why this way: Shooting fuel cans is a waste of ammo and can cause them to respawn, slowing down the fueling process. Protecting your teammates is vital for survival.

  4. 4

    Where: Atrium, with a view of Team B.

    What: Team A might have long-range weapons like a Sniper Rifle.

    What to do: If you're on Team A and have a Sniper Rifle, keep an eye on Team B. You can use the Sniper Rifle to take out Chargers that might be attacking Team B members from a distance.

    Why this way: This provides crucial support for Team B, preventing them from being overwhelmed by Special Infected while they're busy fueling the car.

  5. 5

    Where: Atrium, near the rails.

    What: A Tank will eventually appear.

    What to do: When enough time has passed, a Tank will spawn. You MUST destroy the Tank before you collect any more Fuel Cans. Once the Tank is down, get back to collecting cans.

    Why this way: The Tank is a massive threat. Dealing with it immediately is essential to prevent it from wiping out your team. Don't waste time collecting cans while it's active.

  6. 6

    Where: Racecar area.

    What: The Racecar is now fully fueled.

    What to do: Once the Racecar is fueled up, everyone needs to get inside it to escape.

    Why this way: This is the objective! Getting into the car signifies the end of the finale and your successful escape.

Survival Mode Notes:

  • For Survival mode, you don't need to move around the map as much. The tops of the stalls are a great defensive position. There's also a Grenade Launcher available here, which can be very helpful.

Scavenge Mode Notes:

  • The rules are pretty much the same as Versus. Your main focus should be on gathering and loading Fuel Cans as quickly as possible. There are no Tanks to worry about in Scavenge mode.

  • Be careful not to fall through any holes in the floor by accident while you're rushing to grab Fuel Cans!

Tips
  • Don't jump off the rails unless you're jumping onto a stall – falling can be fatal or put you in a bad spot.
  • If you take too long fueling the car, another Tank might show up, so keep the pace up!
  • The key to this finale is efficient teamwork and communication. Make sure everyone knows their role and stays aware of their surroundings.
