The first "post-Survival" DLC patch for Left 4 Dead has now gone live, fixing a number of exploits and bugs introduced in the free update. The patch most-notably addresses exploits on several of the newly updated Survival mode maps. Tank-spawning bugs and a couple leader-board issues have also been taken care of. Even with the bugs this update is a must have for any Left 4 Dead player, especially considering it's free.
