Valve has rolled out an automatic patch for Left for Dead 2 in conjunction to this week’s latest campaign mode mutation, “Chainsaw Massacre”. The L4D blog post reads:

“4 chainsaws, millions of zombies. You are armed with the only thing you need to survive a Zombie Apocalypse, a chainsaw. Rip apart thousands of zombies on your way to safety. This Mutation is available in Campaign Mode.”

Patch notes:

• New mutation: Chainsaw Massacre
• In Versus Special Infected bots spawn within 10 seconds of the Survivors leaving the safe room
• Shortened spawn times for human Special Infected when the Infected team isn’t full. The time difference is added to the timer of the next bot in line to spawn
• Exposed client console variable cl_viewmodelfovsurvivor to let players adjust their viewmodel FOV
• To use this type cl_viewmodelfovsurvivor ## in the console. ## can be any number from 0-128 the default is 51
