Nice Job
LOVE YOUR VIDS!
Just seeing all characters from Left 4 Dead 2 are much powerful than characters at Back 4 Blood. Lol
Just look how L4D2 characters use meelees or bash, how they powerful and priercing they are
One thing I've noticed: L4D characters feel like genuine survivors, their dialogue always matches the situation they're in. B4B characters always try to sound badass or something. The entire time I kept thinking "why won't you stop talking".
Imagine having to spend an actual zombie apocalypse in the company of that annoying woman from B4B who is always thinking of something "clever" or "funny" to say.
@@SiisKolkytEuroo I'd honestly jump off the nearest skyscraper
Thank you, finally someone also mentioning the lack of actual interaction between characters. Most of B4B interaction are a simple 'quirky' one liner. Characters hardly even commented when teammates are down/died
it's like they don't even acknowledge they're in an apocalypse a world in chaos but just trying to think of what quirky things to say to sound interesting
that one time one of the B4B cast (dont know the character) started talking about her seeing her family get killed by zombies. OH MY GOD SHUT UP WE ARE LITERALLY TRYING TO KILL ZOMBIES
To me the characters in L4D is iconic, like Ellis telling random stories at the worst timing, Coach being the guy that tries to find food everywhere he goes.
And their lines are also iconic snd funny.
Same with Nicks insults. They are funny and iconic but also offensive.
Or Nick's line whenever witch is nearby : shhh sounds like my ex
@@godofchickennugget4563 Didn’t know he says that guess I haven’t played the game that long enough
L4D2 characters looks like normal peoples
B4B characters is just like something that isn't impressive for a zombie-genre video game.
Every voice line in left for dead makes me giggle while every voice line in back for blood makes me actually cringe
L4d2 still has the crown
-This game was made 13 years ago
-The music makes the player really hyped up like the sound effects of a horde or the music effect on encountering a special zombie making it unique
-Shows the environment what has happened very recently after the outbrake
-Each character has its own unique personality
-They focused at the gameplay first rather than the graphics
-Can interact almost any object
-Each weapon has its own effect
-They don't spawn the gun in the same place every time making it more challenging
-Huge maps
-Minigames
-The weather changes
-Has better physics
-All the campaigns are connected
-The ending always has its own different way like walking or defending
-Always have unexpected hordes or tanks making it fun
-If you buy the 2, you get to play both 1 and 2
-Great storyline
-You can cheat to have more fun
-Custom maps
-Very good voicelines
-They spawn random alarm cars to make it more fun
-Bread
And it has mods
Coach my beloved.
Bread 👍

And hundreds more reasons why L4D2 is better
B4B tries to look badass with characters trying to look like the cool kids in an apocalypse, while L4D feels like genuinely trying to survive extinction with characters having fear but also determination as they look for temporary safety
And with L4D being simple yet straight to the point of the personality of the characters, they became the badass one.
I hate when shows and games do this, also it makes the characters feel less genuine and relatable thst way.
Yup.
In a more simpler terms, B4B are like kids trying to look cool and badass but failing while L4D are those dudes just show up and you immediately know that they mean business.
When L4D trying to survive and having fear at the same time makes them the real badass.. while B4B trying too hard to be it makes them sounds so cringe
L4D2 is just so unique I feel like no game will ever give me the same feeling when I play it.
+
Yeah I cant blame you its been so good for so long but im very interested to see what the rest of B4B is like I dont mean I like it more than L4D2 100% its because its not fully released yet
(Actually how did HS Top get into versus mode...?)
@@aydentan2547 steam stole wdym
@@ikhwanzakyr4652 long time ago story, after TRS release L4D1, valve decide to make L4D2 with their preference to make best outcome, but TSR didnt like it. They feel end up like valve stole their Game. CMIIW
I know TRS didnt like it, but i think that choice is the best for TRS itself.
B4B lacks the suspense when encountering special zombies. That ogre is just like meh compared to Tank and the witch of L4D
I'd be much more intimidated by the ogre if it could more effectively remove the player from indoor areas. Where it stands right now, the meta is so go inside and poke at it until it leaves cause the ogre cant really hurt you if your smart about it
the Hag is the only zombie that really gave me that feeling like the witch and tank.
@@armintor2826 this is in STARK contrast to the tank. If you fight the tank in a small enclosed space you are DED.
Left 4 Dead 2 is better then some of the Resident Evil games. And I agree the Tank and the Witch are far more terrifying than this games special zombies. If you are in an enclosed small area with the Tank you are screwed. And if you are not paying attention to where you are walking and walk into a Witch you Are also equally screwed.

The thing is that the zombies of L4D 1n2, despite being dead, had much more personality than those showcased in B4B. The unique audio cues and sounds they make clearly made them so distinct and unique compared to other zombie games.
L4D zombies aren't dead, they're infected with the Green Flu and still alive.

Yeah.
I just love the simplicity in L4D. No fiddleing with cards or skills, worrying to get the best build.
no real RNG involved either, all weapons are to some degree viable and you never feel like you got screwed over too unfairly, L4D's Director just does this well at making each run feel unique and _fun._
And the add-on support.
@@simplysmiley4670 - there's still RNG somewhat, but that's depending on the situation you're in.
In example, health kits/pills would appear more if your team is having a hard time dealing with the infected, stronger weapons will appear if you've been having a hard time dealing with Special Infected, and there are times where a laser sight would spawn at any point in a map.
Grab a gun and go kill that horde over there, don't worry about the 3 tanks that's for later.
@@Pluvillion that's actually one of the things that makes L4D such a blast to play and have immense replay value....no playthrough is the same everything is randomized depending on the player's performance I really want that feature on other games
My issue with B4B is that I feel it’s trying a bit too hard, what I loved about L4D was how it was simple yet fun, I didn’t have to think about loadouts or perks, I just grabbed the nearest gun and had a fun time, B4B also fails to make the special zombies feel, well “special”, I get that they are mutations just like in the originals but the previous ones had so much personality, from the clothes they were wearing to the piano tune that would play when you encounter them.
The game was frantic and a insane, that’s what made it fun for me.
yeah, I do think that the l4d, concept is very good, if they can make the gamestyle more like the last of us it would be very perfect, but im not saying that they should remove the arcade style gameplay aspect of l4d, no cause its one of the most uniqueness of l4d, but im saying that the storyline will be more story telling when its played like the last of us, cause its too naive to think that nostalgic feeling is a good concept but its not, its just nostalgic but its nothing special for new people, I just hope they make a really good storytelling gameplay for l4d even if they make a remake for those games, I just want the gameplay to be like last of us or REsident evil 2 reamake or, something like days gone, cause those games are survival games that has survival gameplay but in l4d its a survival game but it does not feel like a survival gameplay its just an arcade game
B4B is just soulless. It lacks the details what made L4D so special, even when most of the players never actively saw them or focused on them they still made an important impact. The devil lays in the detail or in the words of Harry S. Plinkett "you might not notice it, but your brain did"
The special infected in B4B just felt unbalanced and what I mean by that is the fact that the crushers are way too easy to kill for being up close and personal but then there’s the stingers which bind you in place which basically leave you for dead (no pun intended) if a teammate doesn’t instantly help you and that was really just one example
@@iamfriendly6483 Comparing L4D with Last of Us is not just the way to go my man.. Last of Us was story driven, it was a game that really relied on the strategic mechanic and cinematic cutscenes. L4D also has a story but its 4-player coop survival gameplay is what really made it sell. Adding more unnecessary complexities would really change the soul of the game.
@@iamfriendly6483 you should watch @Crowbcat 's most recent vid
I'll never forget first time playing L4D. And no any other zombie games can top that. The fear when you hear the witch and the tank's theme, the strategy, teamwork, and simplicity, hands down to the best.
Totally agree 🎉🎉
No one can defeat the Left 4 Dead 1&2 when it comes to story line, effects, graphics, cheats, and mostly the zombies and special infected.
B4B has better graphics but L4D1/2 have better physics
@@m.naufalavila8792 it would suck not looking better than a game from 2008/9, well thats than only thing b4b is better at.
@@m.naufalavila8792 You’re right the graphics are better but they still didn’t do better than the original sadly , I remember being little always thinking about when left 4 dead 3 would come out (if there would be one)..Back 4 Blood was supposed to be the resurrection and extension of the series but it failed in many ways , I feel like they just tried to dethrone L4D while the originals didn’t wanna dethrone each other they just co-existed and were both great I’m just a bigger fan of L4D2 because the amazing voice lines *cough Ellis* overall both games are great and B4B needs work
@@m.naufalavila8792 Idk about the better graphics. B4B looks way more cartoon-y than L4D. B4B was obviously trying to go fortnite with the graphics to appeal to zoomers.
So many things about Left 4 Dead 2 are ahead of its time: the sound effects, the gore, the gameplay, the aesthetics...
While all that of Back 4 Blood feel like they're of an old CoD game Activision couldn't care less about.
Worse than that. Call Of Fortnite
Using examples from this video itself isn't hard, either.
In L4D2, the pipe bomb attracts the zombies like moths towards light, as they beat the shit out of the bomb together as if it's a real Survivor. It has great animations and sound work with the zombies' punches and kicks, the flashing & fire particles, and the gore gives it a nice touch on the explosion's impact as the zombie body parts and blood fly everywhere.
In B4B, the zombies are understandably slow and sluggish, it's part of the game. But when a pipe bomb is thrown, they don't look "interested" in the bomb at all. They just turn *slowly* to the bomb like "Ooh! Piece of candy!", and walk to it *purposelessly.*
And let's not talk about how underwhelming the explosion and its impact is. Assuming that said impact is equal to the L4D2 pipe bomb, a direct comparison between footage of the two would put B4B to shame. What's worse/funnier is that it doesn't even do that much damage to the zombies themselves, they just shake it off like a bug bite.
I can say 1 or 2 more things about it, but I'll stop here. This rant is long enough, as it is.
@@KusanaG11 yea L4D2 will survive until the fans reach their life limit. but B4B won't stand a year :D you said it perfectly i think L4D2 has much better animations with mostly everything the bombs act like a duh BOMB and not like a toy you buy in store to make it explode with a match
Don't forget they also didn't forget to add some small details, for one example:
The construction worker zombies won't get attract to pipe bomb due to wear noise-cancelling headphones.
reminds me of World War Z totally boring and that card system sucks...the most important thing missing is the versus mode (not that stupid version in this game)
Basically both games make you feel the same way.
Seeing L4D2 makes you feel nostalgic.
Seeing B4B makes you feel nostalgic for L4D2

Back 4 Blood's reload animations look unnaturally stiff and aggressive. L4D2's animations look more relaxed and natural. I don't get why developers decide to make animations like that in modern games and I kinda don't like it.
I kind of like the b4b animations.
Sure, unnatural, but they aren't the worst.
Probably because a lot of modern shooters tend to think their game needs to be gritty and realistic.
@@WolfTamer But the reload animations in back 4 blood are not realistic
maybe its just because i expect the realistic stumbling and heavily varied poses of the zombies in l4d but the animation in b4b looks so damn goofy, theres no stumbling or anything, the reloads are so stiff and just not smooth, and in general it looks like they hired somebody with like maybe 30 hours of animation experience for it
They force military-paced reloads (and in B4B's case, even fails to get the military-trained feel too lmao) on civilian characters. Obviously it's going to look weird.
There is, ironically, something very human and natural about how the infecteds move and behave in Left 4 Dead.
I haven't played Back 4 Blood, but from what I've seen, I guess the zombies act just like zombies we've seen over and over.
Yes, the stuntman worked really hard to get multiple takes of every animation, as a result, when combined, it offers huge variety and realism, a good feel!
@@DeathZac Yep hundreds of animation and that’s just common infected lol
@@DeathZac I still cant believe Valve SHOT hundreds of people just to get the animations for the zombies
@gamingmaster6377 Me neither! I mean sure, they will be missed and RIP and all but come on, left 4 dead 2, I'm pretty sure they agree it was worth it
I just love how punchy the weapons are in L4D2 combined with the physics engine. The AK is so incredibly satisfying to use in that game.
All of the guns in L4D2 feel like that. The way that the bodies of the zombies just explode into blood and guts is gruesome but satisfying.
Love the MP5 myself, but yeah.
and the gore in lfd2 feels so fulfilling, especially after that shotgun kills of the zeeks
"DUGDUGDUGDUG"
In b4b i feel like playing with plastic toys weapons compare to l4d
I love the weapon handle and movement of Left 4 Dead 2 each character holding the gun different even the wounded animation. It also show how the character you play is just normal civilian. They aren't Navy seal do all of the tactical reload stuff in B4B. It really show the detail Valve care about their character
Yes. Except the balance is the outer way around.
Survivors can survive an oversized gorilla yeeting them 10 meters away, without having all of their internal organs crushed in an instant by the fragments of the broken bones……
And yet a ZOMBIE, undead….. Dies from 1-2 bullets TO THE FOOT.
Balance is just backwards.
I wish Left 4 Dead was more like Project Zomboid in a sense of “zombies are quite tough, ammo management is crucial and you will die from about anything”.
Instead we have bullet sponge survivors and one-hit-kill special infected.
Hell, Charger should have half the health of a tank. And should needs about 5 shotgun blasts to be killed….. not two frying pan hits….
Same thing with boomer - his explosion should be an instant-kill to survivors. Just like Bursters in Dead Island games/Dying Light.
Either you explode him further away and the explosion attracts a horde…. Or you don’t and you just DIE.
Likewise, smoker should just kill survivor once he is fully reeled in (or choke him out within 15 seconds of hanging him, if he grabs him from a roof). Akin to pre-nerf Strangler in “Last Year”.
Hell, balance the game around having different survivors. If you die in a campaign, you get reborn with a body of another survivor and some randomized starting inventory.
Also, survivors on the ground not dying in a couple seconds is just ridiculous.
@@kingol4801"Ellis, Sweetie, can this wait?"
@@kingol4801 l4d is an arcade shooter, not something like slow dying light/project zomboid, it's meant to be simple fun, nothing too complicated nor hardcore (which B4B did, it sucked dingus). go check out no more room in hell instead, same progression style as left 4 dead, not too extravagant, every infected is very harsh, harsh mechanics, still very fun. this game is not your type and you should play those instead, not everything is catered to your preference, or make it somewhat close to that with mods and customize it yourself.

L4D will always be king.
The Director alone makes sure that every run on any map is different every single time. That alone makes L4D so unique and special; impossible to beat it or replicate that.
My problem with B4B is it looks too futuristic, while L4D2 looks present even after all those years.. when you play it you feel a connection to the characters and events.
Yes!
What do you mean futuristic? They literally both take place in modern times, just better graphics in back 4 blood.
@@mr.exodus3844 I think he meant the zombie apocalypse itself. The zombies look more like aliens than zombies and therefore feels like some sci-fi futuristic shit, like the game takes place in 2122 or something, like the Alien movies.

The b4b characters are so unneccessarily chatty.
Reminds me of my buddy Keith tried camping out on top of a building once. He was shooting crows, but the police were too busy teargassin' him to ask what he was doin' up there.

You know what my favorite part of your stories is, Ellis? The sound they make when they *stop.*
We ain’t got time for this, Ellis.
"Ellis Sweetie can this wait? "
Why i like L4D2 more than B4B:
-Pipe bombs yeets the infected
-It's always a "stealth is an option" game
-Unique sounds for special infected, and awesome background music when shit goes down
-The dialogues are actually funny
-You can feel the impact of each shot on the infected
-Gnomes cause why not
-The helicopter is made of *CHOCOLATE*

@@Mattvolkothe walkers ?? hey man don’t ever disrespect L4D like that. Just kidding bro I’m also a fan of the walking dead.
Also a neat thing with flashlights in l4d2, they are attached to the gun, so when you reload the light shines away from your pov
Fr, what I do is thst when I reload I look down to the point that my flashlight is watching to where I was lookin in the first place, and then I look up again
Generally, I'd say the biggest things that L4D2 has on B4B is story and details. B4B leaves a lot to be desired for both. Outside of those, the main criticisms I see people put forward sound a lot more like engine preferences.
The interesting part is in a few months we may get B4B models and maps ported to L4D by the modding community.
Probably and then we have are own l4d3
I wouldn't even want that imo, b4b's storyline sucks

Honestly the Tank is wayyy more recognizable than the Ogre, plus the Tank is a lot more fun while also giving a challenge.
Also L4D zombies have lore behind them. Like how Tanks were steroid junkies, Boomers were morbidly obese people, Hunters were joggers/athletes, Smokers were chainsmokers, Spitters were people with herpes, Witch is ur average depressed white woman

I also feel the music plays a huge role in L4D that was missed. Like when you're pulled by a smoker or have puke on you that suspenseful melody kicking in made you feel there. B4B just feels like my alarm clock is going off and im waiting to hit the snooze button just to get caught in another mutations loogie.
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW ABOUT THE WATER PHYSICS LOL, bro that just shows how much effort was put into l4d2 what a great game 😢 30.8.23
If Back 4 Blood is still alive and kicking after 12 years then I will say it’s a worthy competitor and a clear winner to L4D2.
Like that’s ever gonna happen.
Same
With no add-on and modding features? Good luck with that
by 12 years later, left 4 dead still had more player than b4b
No versus either
For me Back 4 Blood is like Killing Floor 2, it has good gameplay and all but it lacks the soul that the first game had.
EDIT: Since I've apparently pissed everybody off allow me to do so even more: VALVE carried Left 4 Dead.
I like killing floor 2 more than 1
"This new thing doesn't have the soul the old thing had" No bro. You are older now, and nothing new will feel like it did when you were young. Ever again. If they made the "perfect L4D 3" with modern graphics but the exact same gameplay, most people would be bored with it fast. It would be enjoyed by the same sweats that still play L4D 2 I guess. But I had enough of that game like 10 years ago lol.

@@wtfronsson Sure man np, just take care of yourself.
Another reason why left 4 dead was so epic are its soundtracks. Background music really do have an impact in the player's emotion. Something Back for Blood doesn't have
0:30 cuteness overload🤣
This really made me appreciate something I've always taken for granted in Left 4 Dead: the visual feedback.
Back 4 Blood might have higher quality graphics and (sometimes) more realistic effects, but that's about all it has over L4D in terms of visual appeal. In fact, I'd actually argue that B4B's graphical "realism" can be a bit of a detriment. While the molotov's flames in B4B are more in line with what an actual molotov does, the ridiculous wall of fire in L4D is far more satisfying in my opinion and really sells the idea that no zombie walking through it is gonna get out unscathed. Also, L4D's gib system (the code responsible for all the insane over-the-top gore) absolutely demolishes B4B in terms of satisfying visual feedback. Watching the flash of a pipe bomb's explosion and seeing zombies go FLYING through the air (usually in several pieces) will never stop being cathartic, whereas B4B's explosions feel like a wet fart in comparison. Even small stuff like the camera shaking when a tank's concrete hits the ground gives off a sense of danger and that feeling of "Oh shit, that was close" (even if it really wasn't) that the Ogre's flesh bombs are missing. There are so many minute details that add up to make Left 4 Dead an engaging experience, and I can't help but feel that B4B's developers didn't give nearly as much attention to those small but meaningful elements.
I remember the first time I saw a pipebomb literally blow zeds apart in L4D2 and I was amazed. B4B? Not so much.
Alot of games these days care more about model being high quality than the visual feedback.
H2's vehicle explosions vs Infinite's vehicle explosions.
B4B vs L4D.
Heck just look at Vermintide 2: models are jank but you decap something the head flies off the blood spurts in your face and obscures your vision.
Only game that I feel done the visual feedback right from first game to second is Killing Floor 2. Atmosphere may have taken a hit in that game but if you want gore that game has serious gore and takes full advantage of Unreal. You throw a nade and it goes into slow mo and you see an entire intestinal tract flying over your head. You swing a sword on a head and you see brains. You can then proceed to walk around in the guts and it moves as it gets caught on your feet. Wondeful stuff.
Yeah I agree. I remember how I hardly can avoid it XD
@@YasaiTsume yeah sadly that is why I prefer Far Cry 2 more. Tho the malaria mechanic did get annoying still it is a good game.
Also all of the great animations when you shoot at infected in L4D makes every single shot feel so impactful and satisfying. B4B zombies just turn into Ragdolls and plop to the ground.
They really need to revise the Ogre. The amount of pressure Tank had in L4D was unmatched compared to the Ogre in B4B. Big =/= Intimidating. The Tank's speed, power never fails to put the players on the run while the Ogre has been nothing but a moving mascot for soaking up ammo.
There is a tank in b4b it was locked in the beta so he did not appear in the beta, the ogre is it’s own thing he isn’t comparable to the tank
@Siper And on the super freak chance that happened, the game was basically like "here, go again. If you are lucky, it won't happen again. And if it does? Whatever! Try again."
B4B was like "lol random ass chance that five tallboys spawned and you all died. You only have one more chance remaining have fun. Oh, and it'll totally happen again :)"

i wish they added spawn music or attack music to the special infected, thats what made them really unique and cool in l4d. Music can give you a lot of useful information like what special infected just spawned, knowing when a rescue vehicle has arrived by hearing music, and hearing that tank music helps you back up to a better spot and get ready to fight him, the game just feels really different from l4d.
Music cues are really important especially in this kind of genre.
yea, agreed. it also makes the situation more interesting
@@legzzzzz In a game where you sometimes can't even hear the people in your voice call on account of all the yelling, gunfire and sound effects and you cannot be looking multiple directions while in a battle, those music cues really help a lot.
and it kinda scares you sometimes because you hear the music and your trying to figure out where its at if you dont already hear it screaming at you
@@tomemeornottomeme1864 well i played with two of my friends in a voice call and they even like to laugh really loud, and i was always calling out what special infected spawned, they were even impressed and started doing the same. You aren't always getting attacked by zombies and that's when you usually hear them spawn, you probably have music volume set to low, or just not paying close attention.
I do like the fact that in b4b, there are more horde triggering events like birds, and the fact that cars can explode after being shot a certain number of times
old games never get boring.
the throwables in b4b are disappointing like it feels like its a childrens zombie game but in left 4 dead the pipe bombs and Molotov's and boomer biles just feel like youre actual engaged in the fight against the horde and the pipe bombs have dismemberment limbs in l4d 2 which is more graphic and in b4b the zombies just fall down and its lame as hell
The b4b ones are more realistic, but we can all agree that the l4d ones looks, sounds and kills better.
I feel like this is because of Unreal Engine
Its like the thing of cod zombies in waw they were called nazi zombies and now they are just zombies.

And now here we are November 2021, B4B is a month old and has less players than L4D2 a 12 year old game on steam, safe to say who won
Honestly B4B had a lot of problems but my #1 issue is the "modern game with snarky characters," trope that makes dialogue cringy as hell and makes them impossible to actually bond with. It's similar to how Battlefield 2042's characters just... ugh.
I'm tired of the "heck yeah I am the le epic boss!!!1" type of characters. The cast of L4D and L4D2 have more heart and character than almost every modern shooter character.
I fully disagree. For personal reasons, I will take amazing “larger than life” characters over “random nobodies” any day long.
In L4D, the weapons sounded so powerful, and the recoil reflected that. When I shot zombies, it felt like I was shooting monsters that actually used to be human. In B4B, the weapons sound kinda underwhelming, same with the recoil (doesn’t reflect power). Shooting at the zombies also looks underwhelming, like you’re shooting generic squishy monsters. I had high hopes for B4B, and I think it had a a lot of potential, but I’m glad I didn’t buy it.
The zombies in L4D also still looked human, and even had distinct features, such as their clothes and job uniforms, their hair, and facial structure. In B4B, they all seem to look exactly the same with nothing unique about them.
The recoil alone is god tier, but what sold me was the infected's reaction to being shot. My favorite being when they take all the shotgun slugs and they get sent flying backwards. I don't feel nor see that shit in B4B.
6:47 zoey did you just 😳
The very best part about Back 4 Blood is the part where I start playing Left 4 Dead again.
L4D2 is always going to be the superior game. And not saying B4B is bad or anything, at least it’s fun to play... unlike Earthfall or WWZ
World War Z is way more fun to me compared to B4B. Every enemy in B4B feels designed to be as frustrating as possible. The only thing that makes WWZ not fun is waiting 7 minutes in the lobby for my vegetative teammates to ready up for some reason.
Ngl WWZ gameplay feels more like a "zombie apocalypse" than any other game could with its merciless non-stop undead hoards (when ignoring the grinding systems and the off-putting 3rd person pov), wouldn't say it's as enjoyable to me as L4d2 is but would definitely play it anytime over B4B.
Lmao preferring B4B over WWZ? Heresy.
Gotta say, comment section, you changed my perspective. I picked up WWZ again recently and I had a pretty good time.
the good ending
Recently (2024) i put lot mods in my l4d2, from guns to better textures for the map, shadows, light, skins, sounds, all kind of mods to make it more realistic and better.. modders do amazing job.. its almost a new game . The game is timeless
true
L4D2 had such a nice atmosphere, everything felt a little slower. B4D feels more like a sequel to COD zombies than L4D
4:46 L4D2 sound effects are the soul of the game. Same for all the half-life series too.
Nothing feels better then the rush of horde coming or escape arriving, the music is just _this_ good.
As well as being able to outplay _all_ infected in some way, they are never _guaranteed_ damage, all of them have warnings in both their "voices" and the piano tunes, the music and rumbling when tank arrives, or crying of a witch in some dark corner making you think smarter yet giving you the option to get some balls of steel and kill it one way or another, explosive ammo staggering the witch, or one clean shotgun shot one shotting her.
It's a simple game, but damn does it have depth despite that.
I miss the older days of LFD2 and TF2. I'd do anything to relive those days one more time
Me too, the the first decade of the 2000s were by far the best times for gamers; having started gaming in that period really lets you see the downfall of video games...
@@xXYannuschXx it's because 90% of games from ps4 to current era is just some random futuristic stuff, not to mention boring open world games
I know TF2 has it's bot issues but besides that people are still on L4D2 and TF2 so go play good games even if they are considered "old"
It's always comes to little details to tell whether a game is good or not.
The more I played B4B, the more I feel the love and dedication on L4d2, and it's done 14 years ago.
I find it funny how in l4d when a survivor is hanging on a ledge, the rescuing survivor actually make an animation trying to pull the person up but due to technical limitations it seems that not much was going on. However in b4b, in the exact same scenario the other survivor instead of actually doing anything to help their unfortunate teammate up they just stand there shouting and motivating the person to climb up by themselves lol. It’s honestly very hilarious 4:03
I’m not really digging into the “tacti-cool” aesthetic of B4B
From the many videos I watched, Im not sure if I like the attachment mechanic.
It feels like people would just focus on maximizing the gun’s performance that it ends with one team with the same gun and attachments, because it’s optimized the best.
Also, the maps for B4B looks great but feels a bit ‘remote’, if you catch my drift: it feels like the maps aren’t lived in and has a very defined path as if people moved their stuff out of the way.
I think I’d like B4B if I played it but,
the experience would not be comparable for the hundreds of hours I put into L4D1/2 on the 360 (and later PC)
It feels like Killing Floor speed with No more rooms in hell vibes
Yeah, what I loved in L4D2 is that there weren't too many guns, but basically, no gun was really useless. Every gun had its own distinct role with its own downsides and upsides. Maybe M16 is the only that can be said to be outclassed by almost everything, though it's still a nice common clearer on normal difficulties with its great magazine and reload time.
@@hunlepto2239 even the throwables have their uses, I even remember that one time I threw a bile bomb on a single zombie and a whole horde just steamrolled the poor infected bastard

To be honest, attachments on guns would be COOL in L4D if they are randomized in the ground. Imagine seeing a SCAR-L on the ground only to find out it has small differences compared to a normal SCAR-L
It's a good game, it's fun to play, but not $60 fun. It's a $20 at best.
It’s settled, when B4B comes out, i’ll be buying L4D2.
This comment, it brought a light of humor to a comment section of critique. Note how I said critique, not complaint
Bored with vanilla guns?, Mod it with cod warzone weapons mod, and bam! Looks way cooler than b4b...ngl i like L4D2

HOLY SHIT YOURE GONNA TAKE DOWN THE GOVERNMENT WITH MOVES LIKE THAT!
And if you wanna go cheap, wait for steam sales, usually L4D2 went down to like 1 dollar, yes. One. Dollar.
“Dont shoot that car… DAMN IT!”
Left 4 Dead is an easy win here due to the fact of its own appeal. You really feel the characters and the story since every map focuses on that. How I see B4B, it is a reskin with mods and attention to detail… whereas all of that was succeeded by simple mechanics on L4D alone… I kinda hope they plan a future for L4D

I think one over-arching advantage that Left 4 Dead has over Back 4 Blood is summarized in one word: Simplicity.
In L4D, all the characters are easily recognizable thanks to their simple clothing having two primary colours. For example, Nick has an easily identifiable white suit and blue shirt. Rochelle has a pink shirt, Bill has a green jacket and yellow shirt, etc.
In B4B, all the Cleaners have more complicated appearances thanks to their clothing and equipment. Holly, one individual character, has a mix of blue on her cap, yellow on her sweater, red on her plaid and black on her backpack and leggings. That’s without talking about the equipment like backpacks, which takes up all the space on their back that could be used to identify them. On some characters like Walker (An army veteran) and Hoffman (a crazy prepper) it makes sense, but do we really think Holly would lug around a heavy backpack? Personally, I doubt it.
Continuing with the theme of simplicity, L4D’s items and guns are very easy to understand. You’ve got a certain amount of weapons and items to work with. You’re normally given two types of the same weapon, each one with their own spin. The M4 Assault Rifle is a great all-rounder while its “sidegrades” offer a more unique spin, such as the AK47 being more accurate when standing still and less accurate when running.
I think the card / perk system for B4B was a novel idea but it ultimately forces you into a mindset of having all your perks ready or you’re screwed. If you pick Holly, you’re focused on a melee build. If you try to branch away, you won’t be as effective (in my eyes). In L4D, even if you have arguably the worst loadout of an MP5, a pistol, boomer bile, defibrillator and adrenaline, you can STILL make use out of those items. Not to mention, you can pick up any gun and adapt on the fly, saving your game from turning into an utter slog.
There’s a lot of things going against Back 4 Blood and I definitely don’t want it to go down when it has so much potential, but to me, Left 4 Dead will always be a timeless masterpiece.
Same goes for team fortress 2
You could even see in 64p or 32p and you'll still recognise the character
@olav olav Shit even Nick IN-GAME says how simple it is (kinda): "Now grab a weapon and follow me, this goddamn building's on fire."
@olav olav It does have a Walk button where you hold Shift, just like in every other Valve FPS games. But it’s nice that since this game is geared towards everyone from “group of friends dicking around” to “sweaty, tryhard MVP lords”, it doesn’t provide much tactical advantage to the point of necessity to the players. In other words, it’s a simple movement option not forced upon the player like Sprinting in other games, and I personally really appreciate that.
A thing I’d like to mention is how the weapons are all versatile and simple to use, so you don’t grow an emotional attachment to them. It plays to the game’s aesthetics that the Survivors are merely civilians with generally very basic knowledge on guns, so anything that can turn the violent and hostile zombies to chunky human soup will do for them. And, like you said, players only need to pick up some guns and shoot things. No worries about weapon ranking because they all have their unique strengths, and especially ammo management due to the ridiculously generous reserves, getting rid of any problems that might be involved with it, like ammo sharing in PUBG and B4B.
Sure, Tier 2 weapons are undoubtedly better than Tier 1s overall (and most alternate gamemodes for Versus that are strictly competitive straight up remove them entirely), but in true normal public Versus games, you are never truly defenseless with any given gun at any given time, especially if you play your cards right with the weapon type you have.
Shut up lmao
My hope is that videos like these will help turtlerock studios make back 4 blood 2 a better game than it could be. Because honestly there's stuff from both games I like, even though personally I think left for dead 2 is still better in a lot of ways.
current turtlerock studios are hackfrauds banking off of the work of their old Devs who have fully assimilated with valve ages ago. The marketing of this game by itself speaks to their intentions. It takes actual love to create greatness.
0:25 Samuel Stuhlinger confirmed?!
I don’t think people seem to realize that we will never get a game like L4d again until valve makes the third game. Trs may have created the foundation but it was valve who perfected it by l4d2
Edit: lmao looks like I pissed off trs fanboys. Whatever weirdos, it’s not like valve has had lots of other successful game before and after L4d…. Oh wait, they have.
I don't think Valve would be releasing a 3rd title very soon. The success of current generation Valve's games (Team Fortress, Left 4 Dead, even single players titles like Half-Life and Portal) makes it risky to make another title. By "risky" I mean it really really hard to make a "better" game than what Valve's team had already put out.
CS:GO still possess a huge player count, L4D continuously has active players (in which mods and community's content play a huge role). And don't get me start about TF2, that shit still alive af even though it hardly have any update.
HL Alyx did a solid job by freshing out play style as well as continue the storyline. But I don't think the same strategy can be applied to other IPs.
Still, really really hard doesn't mean impossible, I hope Valve will soon prove my arguments wrong.
and then there's me who prefers L4D1 over 2.
L4D was also developed by Valve, TR just layed the foundation of the game before valve bought the IP. TR barely has anything to do with L4D funnily enough.
@@ucbuiminh4651 Absolutely!
@@WhirlingMusic there ain’t nothing wrong with preferring L4d over 2 but it’s still purely valve. Valve were The ones to decide which characteristics to keep and which infected should stay or leave.

There’s just one thing I’ve noticed that I don’t particularly enjoy about B4B (among many other things). The weapon animations. They look too professional, like someone wanted to try the animation style from Modern Warfare 2019, but the problem is, it doesn’t fit in this scenario, because the characters aren’t highly trained soldiers with years worth of weapon training. They’re just people. L4D’s animations are less movement-y (probably due to engine limitations at the time) but they do show some semblance of non-experience with the animations.
Just my two-cents.
Actually in B4B all “immune” people are being given training.
They are canonically the ONLY people that can fight on the front-lines. They, thus, have COMPLETE military backing, including any fancy technology, training etc. Since they are the only field agents humanity can have.
They are the only hope of humanity, and are more funded than NASA.
Because virus in B4B is such a calamity that is just un-survivable.
You have: Infectious water (as in infected crops, infected soil, infected everything)
Infectious infected
Kaiju-level threats and very BIG infected.
Special infected that infect you by just being next to you etc.
B4B universe is objectively worse to survive that “Last of Us” or “Dying Light”.
If you are a normal person, you cannot eat or drink without a chance of becoming infected and dying. If you are lucky 0.001% of humanity, you have to fight L4D-style tank-like creatures everyday, in large groups.
Within B4B universe, the ONLY people that survive are those that are immune AND exceptionally skilled (think Suicide Squad level of luck or powers or skill). And even then it is 50/50.
They are all essentially “HUNKs” of RE games.
In fact, if they were just random nobodies with 0 military training or skill, they would be DEAD, DEAD and DEAD. Did I forget something? DEAD!

Gameplay is pretty similar, but the aesthetic, artstyle and character design is similar to switching from TF2 to Overwatch.
Overwatch: Soldier is gay
TF2: We are not most men. We are MERCENARIES
i wouldn't say it's similiar tbh. perhaps a bit, but it also felt different to me
I wouldn't say that at all, i think that overwatch has done a pretty good job with their characters.
Especially the voice actors they've done astonishingly! They gave these characters so much personality.
When OW released it was actually such a love letter to people who work on character designs and voice them.
They were all so individual and each of them sounded so distinctive.
This comparison doesn't hit the same, as a l4d vs b4b comparison would hit.
@@InternetWAPx tf2 has 100 percent more personality than overwatch
@@superfurfannyaa1864 the lore in tf2 is also way better then what ever overwatch has
Revisiting this a year later, after playing all acts of B4B. While it isnt the Left 4 Dead 3 we were hoping for, it was a fun game. Theres also a way to build so u can play the game just like L4D (No ADS, No Movement Penalty). Definitely need to play with friends to make use of the replayability.
Other than that, L4D2 still ages well and is the better game, just with mod support and custom maps. If B4B ever opens the game to mod support, we may have a swing. But classic and nostalgia factors in, L4D2 is still an ageless classic.
I've realized that the animation in l4d is much better than b4b even though b4b is considered newer like to look the Molotov in l4d had looked like flames but for b4b it just looks like a pool of lava. Also, L4d has way more soundtracks and each soundtrack gives each special its unique voice. Like if a horde is coming there is a soundtrack of zombies somewhat screaming but for b4b it doesn't have the same feel
You can see they barely cared about the details of sounds, enviromental interaction and gameplay (or Unreal Engine lacks these functions themselves?). Colors are too washed out and comic-y, unlike L4D2 that had an interesting film-like artstyle with extra care about the details of models (to this day, most infecteds look terrifying up-close). Maybe story mode and stuff might be better (dunno about it though). I also have to say the hub is a nice touch, since L4D2 lobbies are painfully boring and makes players want to leave instantly. The extra gameplay elements is something you think could only make the game more fun, but it makes you think into it too much to the point it's annoying. You're in an arcade(?) shooting game, not a strategy or puzzle game, the only thing you should think about is how to handle situations considering the circumstances, not about how to play the game itself even when you know how it plays. Overall, I just think saying it's L4D3 is both idiotic and ignorant, it has many features I absolutely hate in modern games and don't support and I feel it almost has no distinctive feature that can't be already found in some other game(s), but probably better.
"You're in an arcade(?) shooting game, not a strategy or puzzle game"
The thing is, Back 4 Blood doesn't try to be a Run and Gun game like L4D, it has more strategy behind, but people are expecting it to play the same as L4D and then are dissappointed as hell when it doesn't.

You can clearly tell by the first person gun animations.
The animations in B4B feel and look like an expert trained marine is using them,
Comparing to L4D2 though, They feel more casual and smooth as if they're used by normal people.
l4d even is an old game, but the killing effect, the slashing effect still very satisfying..very simple, grab and shoot..no fancy fancy effect
Even if this Left 4 Dead 2 is an old game, It will always be the greatest zombie game ever!
I LOVE YOU HS TOP!
Loved watching this, and also hard in some sort of way, seeing L4D2 getting more and more outdated. But I'll never stop playing it though, such a classic and the nostalgia just hits the spot every time I turn it on
