Valve’s added an updated version of the original Left 4 Dead Terminal Map for Dead Air into Left 4 Dead 2, and it is handing out an incentive to test it for bugs and the like. This incentive will come in the form of an achievement called Connecting Fights, which is earned by playing a complete game of Versus in Dead Air. What’s more, once 60,000 people earn the achievement, Valve will unlock the beta version of Blood Harvest on Steam the following weekday. Think of it as the same as with the Dead Air incentive, only instead of the goal being 20,000, Valve has added and extra 40,000 on top of it. Get to work. Thanks, Shack.

Valve’s announced that upcoming community-made L4D2 DLC Dead Air will launch on the week of July 22 at the latest. It has said it’ll try to release it earlier than that, but July 22 is the latest date it will release on. The early release follows a challenge for 20,000 Steam users to unlock the Stream Crosser achievement on Cold Stream. The barrier was massive surpassed at 60,774 times.

There’s more details here.
