    What server? Coop or versus? There are a couple of things you could try:

    1. In console type: rate 20000
    2. Lower your resolution
    3. Verify integrity of your game files
    4. Go ingame and play the final map in singleplayer and see what happens. If the game does not crash when in single player then it must be due to your internet not being able to cope with the syncing of the cut scene.

    steam or nonsteam gamefiles? If nonsteam, always rightclick on patches and run as administrator. I find it best to run the patches on the same drive that the game is installed on,, as an example, dont patch off a usb drive. If your nonsteam, first thing I'd try is reinstalling the patches.

    What I usually do when I can't fix this is delete the entire game from your steam client, but that still leaves some files so after that I'll do a manual delete from disk as well.

    What you can try as well is update your video drivers or disable multicore renderig in the game options.

    Final question: Do you have any addons?

    *scratches head* Anything recent in Windows Action center (The little flag icon near the clock) that might help lead us in the right direction?
    Should he try a compatibility mode or disabling visual themes in L4D2 shortcut or exe properties?
    Think replacing the actual vids themselves would help (could they have gone "bad" somehow)? On a fresh instal I always have to copy a "Park" map from different instal cause of file missmatch. I'm leaning away from this one because its ALL of the ending cutscenes which is odd... Makes me think graffix related but I just dont know for sure. Never had your issue before.
    What would happen if he reinstalled the patches manually on his lagit game from nonsteam patch?

    As legend mentioned, a list of your addons could help too :) ,, sometimes things dont work with other things and weird shit happens LOL

    i did some research since i have the same problem, it persists to the new update itself as many never had this before the update. I guess we will just have to wait for a new patch because as mentioned above it doesnt work

    lol nice :D

    And if you look at the update history, only one achievement has been fixed with this patch.

    Which is bs because I could see like 300 files getting updated :)
