Why 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.

      this 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.

        What cut shit? You mean the special infected they play tested and were way too hard to handle while also dealing with common and other special infected?

        Ah yes I love things like an enemy that you have to sneak past or it summons a horde just tossed into the game ignoring why it got cut in the first place.

          It'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.

            Relying on RNG is artificial difficulty

              Yeah 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.

              If 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.

                I've been watching someone who really likes the game play it for hours and hours in the background and nearly every time I see them deal with a snitch even throwing a nade at it and deleting it the "alerted the snitch" pop-up still happens and they get fricked by a horde.

                Well 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.

    I played the beta for this and it wasn't very good, but I still kind of want to play the full version.
    No way I'm paying them $60 for this shit though.
    Also gamepass always fricks 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.

    I’d be complaining if I paid for it (besides the monthly gamepass fee) but it’s free on gamepass so I don’t mind that’s it’s a mediocre game. When it’s removed from gamepass in a year I’ll decide if I want to buy it for a discounted price

    It really does not feel fun to play. I can jump into L4D2 and have a blast (aside from some of the community being homosexuals) but this game has shit matchmaking that takes 10 minutes to find a campaign match, and then it's always just Xbox morons 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.

                That's assuming the 15 hours were fun. If we go into the argument of how much time should be spent to decide the game isn't fun we end up with the fricking "you can't say it's bad, you barely played it/how can you say it's bad when you played it so much?" shit when really it's the former statement that's the reasonable one.

                it sounds like you're expecting it to be some huge game you get 500 hours out of. You go tit for free, don't expect some free game you can play for 500 hours without getting bored of

      I've killed them instantly (M95 Barret aka .50 cal) or teamshotting and they haven't alerted. As far as I can tell also... bots aren't subject to that.

    i 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
