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.

Special zombies not so special, why? Because every 2 minutes one after the other pops up making them feel like ordinary zombies and good lord the regular infected design is terrible another thing to point out is the games sound design isn't very good compared to left 4 dead. Had tried to turn on my flashlight but discovered it automatically turns on whenever I enter a dark room but what if I want to leave my flashlight on like in left 4 dead. What I did enjoy was the gunplay and I guess grinding to unlock stuff look the game isn't bad but its not good either. This game is far from what left 4 dead did.

The good news is that I'm really starting to enjoy the game. The bad news is that it took me a whole month to get to this point. I don't have a lot of time to game these days and was expecting it to be like Left 4 Dead where I could log on and get to shooting without much fuss.

But the card system, supply runs and awkward campaign mode added a layer of complication I didn't want to have to deal with.

Now that I took some more time to learn how the card system works and put more thought into that strategy I'm enjoying it more.

I hated it for the first few weeks but initially I was looking for more action without all that effort.

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.

Having never played the earlier left for dead games, I am not comparing it to those and can't speak for the people who loved those games, although this makes me want to go try those ones now. I'm someone who spent a ton of time with BO2 zombies and WAW zombies back in the day so that's what I'm comparing them to. The game has little to no story, unless you wanna dig into it which I don't. What this game is is mindless shoot the bad guys with friends fun. I've spent a few late nights blasting away without thinking about anything. Sure the cards are a bit confusing at first but you can just pick them randomly without it hurting the game, but they will enhance it if you care. Even my wife who doesn't play much other than zombies played a bit and really enjoyed it. I did try to play alone and gave up pretty quick so if you don't have friends then don't bother but if you like getting 4 friends together and just having fun I would recommend it.
