Below is a reminder as to where we are in our quest to complete all of the campaigns on Expert mode. The bolded campaigns are the completed ones on expert and the red one is the one that we played most recently. There is an achievement for surviving all 6 of the official Left 4 Dead 2 campaigns on expert. We will be starting with the finale of I Hate Mountains 2, this time around since we made it all the way there last time only to run out of time. If we get by that quickly enough, we will switch No Mercy or survival mode depending on how much time we have. If you do not have I Hate Mountains 2 or Yama installed, see the links for them below for instructions.

Battlefield 1 on sale for $30
Posted on Wednesday October 18, 2017
The Battlefield Revolution edition, which includes all 4 DLC packs, is now on sale for $30. The standard version is also on sale for $20, but why bother with that when you can get all of the DLC worth $60 for only $10 extra. Of course, Black Friday is also around the corner with its inevitable sales again, so if you wait another month, you might get it for even cheaper.

We will be coordinating via Origin friends and will be on Discord as well. We will determine what we will play once everyone has joined the game lobby. Be sure to join our OSF Titanfall 2 network with the instructions at the link below to make it easier for you to find your way into the game lobby. If we would happen to have more than 12 of us, we will split ourselves into two groups. The coop missions are also now available, so we could also split ourselves into groups of 4 and play that mode.
