GuestWhy does this game feel so generic? It looks boring. It plays boring. It feels boring. The special infected are the same as every other zombie game, except now you get three different flavors of the same special infected we’ve always had. Oh but wait, now you get to play Yugi-Oh while playing a zombie coop shooter. Can’t say that I’m surprised though. It feels like every game that comes out these days is just generic mediocre garbage.

Guestthis explains why l4d felt so safe and tame. if you look at l4d2’s cut content, you’ll see they wanted to expand into a lot of areas. it’s the reason just has this void in it even though the base idea is really solid.
it’s just a question of whether you want a safe, polished shooter with some substance. but never dares to be dangerous. or the janky, but rather ambitious game. with the latter, you’ll get higher highs than l4d ever could imagine.
i know what i want.

GuestIt’s fine. Not sure how someone can say it’s plays boring unless you literally haven’t played anything but the beta. Even on normal aka "Recruit" it’s got some difficulty and will wipe alot of teams. You will basically never win hard (Veteran) unless you have a team of communicating competent players and good RNG for guns/attachments/gear. The hardest difficulty is probably nigh impossible for an overwhelming majority of people.

GuestYeah I’m sure those L4D RNG mechanics aren’t artificial difficulty either? I’ve put a dumb amount of hours into either and runs have been make-or-break by RNG because shitty SMGs aren’t doing a whole lot on anything above easy baby-mode and throwables are invaluable.

Guestfrag grenades kills snitches and crows without alerting the horde
I’ve been watching people obliterate the snitch and it still manages to call a horde as it dies most of the time.
I assume it’s a bug but that’s insane that due to lag or something else handling that special correctly can still punish you.-

GuestIf you’re talking about the night-time church area than that is part of the mission itself that they alert enemies as they die. Otherwise I haven’t seen that be a thing yet.

GuestWell than it’s probably a modifier I haven’t run into yet. Each round between safehouses is RNG enemies, higher difficulty has higher chances for things like "armoured" enemies or I presume Snitches always alerting regardless if killed.

GuestDeep Rock Galactic has the naedocyte breeder and World War Z has the screamer so B4B is not the first time this type of special has existed in a co-op horde shooter and I don’t remember accusations of bad design for either of those games. What separates these 3 games from the L4D screamer is that in all of them the special is loud, slow, easy to spot and except for the breeder, doesn’t run away.

The mutated ones should still alert a horde. That’s a good strategy though. Assuming I have any nades left after getting double Tall Boys or whatever

No way I’m paying them $60 for this shit though.
Also gamepass always fucks up on my machine and the games are either the wrong build or they run like shit and this already has denuvo and latency issues from what I hear.I guess if the game lives to the point it hits $20 or less I’ll try it out.

GuestIt really does not feel fun to play. I can jump into L4D2 and have a blast (aside from some of the community being faggots) but this game has shit matchmaking that takes 10 minutes to find a campaign match, and then it’s always just Xbox retards that can’t play for shit. The gunplay would be fun, but you run out of ammo constantly. There’s barely any gore so shooting zombies isn’t very satisfying. And the entire experience is just bogged down in bullshit to justify the terrible card system so you get killed by cheap RNG often. I wanted to love this game so much and I just don’t. Only fun I’ve had is playing as the infected in the versus mode, but even that is half-assed and barebones compared to L4D2.

Guesti played the whole campaign of back4blood and the game is okayish not 60 dollars worth by a long shot tho.
plus the amount of annoying problems like the 20+ minute waiting time if you wanna continue mid way through an act forcing you to either wait or go back a mission or 2 to find a lobby faster make it so i wont be picking this up until its 20 dollars+ having at least some friends to play with cuz Randoms in this game are absolutely hairpulling brain dead
also fun fact you cant solo the campaign(you can but you wont unlock anything) so forcing you to play with people not the biggest issue for me but its still one of the problems that keep stacking on each other -

GuestOP is full of shit. This is the first good, fun and functioning co-op zombie killer since L4D2, and improves on everything those games did. It runs well, the weapons feel fun and unique, it’s *way* more challenging than L4D ever was, has an proper level pinging system (like how fucking many years do you need to get since Apex Legends and devs still don’t know how to do such a simple fucking if/else/then ping system right?), has a shit ton of content etc. The card system is great, adding a lot of depth and a good long lasting progression system – something L4D always needed mind you -, yet it’s nowhere near as dull as the fucking mandatory level and equipment grind of Vermintide. Your progression isn’t locked behind fucking 50 000 hours of RNG.
And did I mention how hard it is? L4D was always too easy. And there’s a great overall synergy between the different cards and characters, enabling you to do full support builds, dedicated zombie killers, speed runners, solo or team oriented, and anything inbetween.

GuestAs a console fag I’d like to take a moment to cry about how terrible this game feels on a controller, at least with the default settings. The sensitivity is so fucking low that it takes forever to turn around and there isn’t a quick 180 button like Left4Dead had for some fucking reason. Plus the autoaim feels terrible and locks on from a mile away but aims straight for center mass and then you need to fight against it to actually hit a damn weak point. I’ve definitely got to go in and tweak stuff but this is the worst controlling FPS out of the box I’ve played on a controller in a long fucking time.

Just watch the trailer, really. It shows you how people discovered the parasite. It was some ancient worm dug up in a glacier out in Canada. Then some dumbass researcher decided to examine the worm in a petri dish and it lunged at him, and that was the first ridden. Rest is basically the same old zombie outbreak shit from there.

GuestIt is difficult at first.
You have to go slowly. There’s pretty much 0 reason to sprint when clearing areas. Always walk. Clear your corners. Listen for screeching audio cues.
The AI is really fucking dumb, and even if you aggro like 70% of a group sometimes the other 30% will continue hiding behind a wall then smack your ass when you walk by. Clear an entire area before you move on. In Pubs your retarded teammates will sprint and run around, let them die.For specials, if you ever see a Tallboy or a Reeker (fat guys), turn around, run and put distance between you and them.
