Back 4 Blood

While weapon upgrades and cards are cool, the game has barely improved since Left 4 Dead. In fact, I would rather play that than Back 4 Blood.

Okay i have seen people both hating and loving this game i personally enjoy it however there are a few issues

its online connection can be a lil sketchy and laggy at times however its not a major glaring issue plus it will likely be improved in future updates

however the levels in the game can be very repetitive and bland

luckily its pretty fun with friends and i mean WITH FRIENDS

while its not bad solo it can be very tedious and a little boring at times

requiring a constant internet connection can be a major issue for some people i know this as i used to have incredibly bad internet but as i said its more fun with people so its not that bad in this case

but overall the gunplay and game mechanics are fun really fun sure alot of the mechanics are borrowed from left 4 dead but i mean if its not broken don't fix it

buuuuuuuuuut they could fix some of the issues such as the servers

but at the end of the day i played for hours with my friends and we had a blast so can i really complain about much.

Back 4 Blood is basically what you expect it to be.. it's Left 4 Dead with better graphics (aside from a few questionable glitches).

The only issue is that Left 4 Dead has something that B4B does not: heart. It's something that many games suffer from nowadays and is almost impossible to pinpoint. It's not that the game doesn't have neat features to explore, but it lacks that spark that keeps you coming back.

Maybe this is a genre that belongs in the past when people actually had friends over to play video games. Playing this alone or with friends online just leaves something to be desired.. and I don't think it's the devs fault.

This game prove the success of Left 4 Dead 2 is because of Value, not Turtle.

The dev have no idea how to run and manage a game, and they treat players some kind of their enemy, it's like they are against the players, and they love to teach you how to play a game instead let you play yourself by whatever you want .

Turtle Rock promised us that Back 4 Blood is a "spiritual successor", but in reality, everything has changed. The Infected, now called the Ridden, are pretty slow, unlike Left 4 Dead, where the fast-paced zombies can be intense. There's also a new card system, which is complicated. Each character has a serving purpose, making you HAVE to choose a character that fits your playstyle, where in Left 4 Dead, all you do is choose a character and choose a weapon. No character has a specific purpose. There are only 4 types of ridden: Normal, Tallboys, Stingers and Reekers, but in exchange have sub-classes. The map design isn't good, but it isn't bad. It's just generic. Overall, the game isn't fun, the characters aren't funny, the map design is alright (I'll give it that), and the campaign is short. The reason Left 4 Dead is easy to pick up, is because it's simple. The on-screen directions cause no confusion, making it easy to learn it. I personally didn't like it, but I hope you do.
