#LEFT 4 DEAD 2 REVIEW FULL#
This actually gives each level a distinct purpose – Act 1 actually asks the team to blast off a luxury cruise ship full of Ridden, as well as destroying a mine that’s infested with zombies – using a howitzer no less. Unlike most zombie shooters where you play as an ‘everyman’ who happens to survive the zombie apocalypse, you play as one of the Cleaners – a group of trained and well-armed survivors who go out on missions to eradicate the Ridden and find survivors and supplies. Games like this don’t really offer Story as their strongest suit, but Back 4 Blood at least has a solid foundation to play on. If anything, the future stories will be exclusively for those who want more out of the game who will be exactly the same people who’d be willing to purchase whatever’s going to come out next. However, at the moment, we do not yet believe that the game’s monetization will have a significant impact on a player’s enjoyment of the game. This can only become a problem for those who play alone – or those who want to choose to play the maps they will run. However, it doesn’t feel like this will be much of an issue since having just one party member with access to the DLCs will unlock it for the entire party. Now, it’s still difficult to gauge whether or not the DLC will be worth the cost. New acts and maps will come through the $40 annual pass – which comes with the game’s Deluxe and Ultimate Editions. However, this will change once the first of the three planned DLC packs arrive over the course of the next year. At launch, everyone will have a level playing field, with everyone having access to all of the currently available maps and Acts at launch. The game’s DLC system gatekeeps players’ total experience, locking behind a paywall a significant portion of the game’s content. Back 4 Blood overall is a great game, but sooner or later you’d start wanting to play new Acts, new maps. Save for some issues with how playing alone can hamper your progress, Back 4 Blood contains a lot of fun content, various unlockables to keep things fresh, and replayability that could last lifetimes. All three difficulty levels offer significant changes in the challenge you’ll face in your runs. Thankfully, the game offers three different difficulties – if you’re forced to play alone you can choose to play at the lowest difficulty. If you’re playing levels alone, it might be hard to complete, as the game’s Player AI is terrible. However, the game’s AI still is one of the worst aspects of the game. Overall, Back 4 Blood is a fun game to be played with friends or other random players. This adds more variety and uncertainty, making players second guess their approach to these special zombies. For example, the agile Riddens could be a melee-based Hocker, a spitting Stinger, or a pouncing Stalker. What’s amazing here is that the special Ridden now come in “families.” Some special Ridden look the same or have the same general characteristics, but could attack the players in three different ways. Their appearances add an extra layer of suspense and action in the game. Back 4 Blood also introduced attachments to the game, which adds even more customization options for the weapons you bring with you to defeat hordes of zombies.Īpart from the “Common” zombies, or as the game calls them – the Ridden – there are several different special zombies that you might encounter in your run. The weapon variety is amazing, with a lot of different options, from handguns to shotguns, melee weapons, throwables, and rifles. Speaking of gunplay, Back 4 Blood offers a large arsenal of weapons for players to either buy at safehouses or pick up throughout the level. Campaign Runs are saved independently, which means you can jump in and out of a run anytime you like, and you can return where you left off the next time you come out to play. The four players go through one act: eight pre-determined levels with different objectives. Virtually, each character plays almost exactly like the others, and it doesn’t change your experience so much. Each of the characters has their minor difference from the others, like boosted stats and starting weapons. Back 4 Blood is played in parties of four players, each one using one of the eight characters. Ready to jump in? Then you can buy Back 4 Blood here.
But did they learn, really? Let’s find out in our Back 4 Blood review below. From what they learned in the failure of Evolve comes Back 4 Blood. With Turtle Rock Studios, they made the ill-fated asymmetric multiplayer game Evolve.
When developers Turtle Rock Studios realized that Valve is allergic to the number 3, they left the company to form their own studio. Back 4 Blood is the spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead 2.
