No dialogue from any B4B Character can make me smile like hearing Nick telling Ellis to shut up. L4D2's survivors are actual humans while B4B's are just stereotypes we've seen a hundred times.
Nick: How about we try quiet time? That line will always make me chuckle and the rest of his team telling him to stop being an asshole or shut up is too funny, I just can’t with it at times
Ellis, why dont you tell us about the time you shut up. "You know what my favorite part about your stories are Ellis? The sound they make when they stop."
19:21 That is actually a clown zombie seen only on Dark Carnival. You can see its hair when it turns, and the glowing eyes are just an effect they used for added dramatic effect. What's more, the eyes of all common infected glow at certain angles, just not to that extent
@@hextheprotogenfox No, it isn’t a Call of Duty reference. You can tell (if your brightness is all the way up) that it’s a clown. The clown’s eyes glow more than the common infected.
For me it actually looks like Bill because if you hold your face close to the screen and only focus on the head then you can see his beret. I cant explain tho why it could be Bill. Maybe an Easter Egg ?
I don’t know if anyone else remembers or has seen this, but I remember a joke Steam guide for L4D2 called “Bad Guy Nick”, with the icon being the Good Guy Nick achievement icon but with an evil smile. I don’t remember much about it, other than it just being a dumb sh*tpost similar to Purple Francis lol
It was a guide about "How to Summon Bad Guy Nick" and it was like 20 pages of the author raging against me because I beat the shit out of them in versus. I remember because I'm the guy. I wish I had saved it nobody believes I made someone that mad. Hahahaha.
I loved that one heist in the first Payday where it takes place in the No Mercy hospital, it even had a witch easter egg and patient zero. Then the ending where the hospital gets bombed, the payday crew have to exit through the morgue and all the bodies start moving, loved it. Please include it in part 2 of your video, I loved this one alot!
the sound mixing for the transitions was kinda loud, but otherwise, this video is AMAZING. your delivery was great, the editing was great, the script is great, good video, deserves way more attention, you got a subsciption out of me.
16:19 You forgot to mention that if you let a hunter pounce a survivor for long enough, he'll eventually do a biting attack on the survivor, even if for a moment.
Because of that easter egg in The Passing, I always wondered if they would make a Midnight Riders campaign starring the music group instead of the main survivors.
Dude it is such an honor to see you here, I absolutely love your content! Your videos about the fleshpit national park, stairs in the woods, and lost tapes are some of my favorite videos to listen too when I'm hiking!
@@rizalalbar Get to the part where you see “Nellis”. But to sum it up... Gay shipping. Nothing completely wrong with it, some people have their tastes, but it just fills me with dread.
Everytime I hear "still alive" gets me emotional cuz I like portal and like glados, and knowing it's playable in L4D has me hit in the feels again *cri*
I'm fuzzy on this, but, supposedly, there was a cut easter egg in Dark Carnival. The easter egg was that a Hippie in a closet needed you to do something for him, nick yelled at him, and you left the hippie behind. I am pretty sure there was a voice line backing it up. I heard it so long ago that I don't remember much about it, it might be worth looking into.
Having done magic mushrooms and played left4dead, there is an etherealness to a lot of the spaces. If you wander around a cleared map, there's a palpable sense of absence. The designers did an impeccable job of creating spaces that show the marks of people, are designed for people, and have a profound lack of people. Everywhere you go, everything is as if it had been left, maybe before the weekend, if not the day before, and suddenly there was no one to return to switch off that light, or fold that laundry.
Hello everyone, I'm sorry. I know the last thing you all would want to hear is me saying that once again the second part of the iceberg is going to be pushed back, but it has to be. This is a very serious topic I'm going to discuss and for privacy reasons I will not be disclosing the full details but I want to explain why the iceberg will be pushed back. A very close family member of mine is dying, and helping my family deal with the grief is my main priority right now. I'd really appreciate if all questions about the second part's launch date be kept to yourselves as right now I really don't think I can deal with the pressure that comes from that. Thank you, for all of the support that you have given me thus far. Please, remember to spend time with you're loved ones, it's so so important to make memories with them because you don't know when that time will be up. Goodnight, and thank you
I do know that now, so what happened was the iceberg had been in development for around half a year before back 4 blood even launched. And only recently had that piece of information become more well circulated while before it was more so just kinda thought that turtle Rock was telling the truth. Originally I had several other entries that would've elaborated more on back 4 blood but I wanted to keep the iceberg as centered around l4d as I could
Though I will say Zombieland can fit in the left for Dead Universe, it's just the survivors in the film got really lucky and never met one of the special infecteds, which would be in character for the film. (I mean you seen that park scene, and just randomly finding a Hummer H2 with a bunch of guns)
Hello everyone! I hope everyone is having a great night! I just wanted to update you all on the current status of part 2 of the iceberg, when I release the video I'll take down this pinned comment. But as of right now I just wanted to have something connected to the video so people are able to see it easier. Yes I am working on the second part and I hope to push it out soon, unfortunately life is really baring down on me right now. With mostly college and work being stressful, along with these my pc has also been extremely hard to work with. While I don't know when part 2 will be finished I'm hoping to get it launched before the end of the month. I also wanted to say, from the bottom of my heart thank you all for your support. I know it may not seem like alot, but the encouraging comments y'all have left and the love you've given the channel really really means so much to me. I honestly never thought I'd get past 100 subscribers yet alone to the number I'm at now, I honestly can't thank you all enough. I'm very sorry as well that the video is taking so long. I hope when the video is finally uploaded it'll meet the hype and hopefully exceed it, take care of yourselves, and once again thank you all!
Hello everyone! I hope everyone is having a great night! I wanted to update you all on the second video's progress. It is almost done, though i do have a lot left to do with it, I've been mainly working with the sound mixing and a making the dialogue more fun to listen to. Unfortunately there is a big set back, this Friday I am going to be bringing in my pc in order to get it replaced or fixed, I won't lose any progress due to having backed up all of files related to the second part onto an external drive. But if I'm not able to get my pc replaced and instead it has to get fixed, it'll take a month or so to get back, I'm hoping that I'm able to just get it replaced so that way I can get back to work. Regardless of what happens I will make sure the second part comes out, though when it will launch is kinda hard to figure out right now. I'll make sure to update you all on what happens when Friday rolls around. To make up for this, I have been working on making a list of the mods I've used in this video, alot of people have been asking about what mods I used and while I don't have most of them still installed. I'm going to try and find which ones I was using so that way you guys have easy access to them. Thank you so much for all of the support and I'm so so sorry for the wait, I really feel awful and I hope I can get the video out soon. Have a great night everyone.
21:00 I've to bet that the Claws Special Infected was cut by Valve in order to retain the spooky atmosphere of L4D2 and not overpass the horror that L4D1 has.
When you were explaining the “special infected dictated by lifestyle” tab, you accidentally switched the jockey and the boomer around, since it would make much more sense.
If I had to guess, the Zoey has 3 hands thing is a reference to a marketing tactic used in movie posters and game cover art. Artists make mistakes like that on purpose because it tricks you into seeing it but somewhere in your mind you realize its wrong but you cant pin down why right away making it more memorable and since the Mercy Hospital art is a movie poster it has to be on purpose.
As for the 'Zombie Multiverse' theory, I think it's further backed up by Dead By Daylight, which pulls survivors from different timelines and universes into realms. Bill is pulled into these realm when he dies. Jill Valentine and Leon Kennedy are also in Dead By Daylight, so I think that further adds evidence to the theory.
About the start of the infection and the first special infected, I think the answer can be found in PAYDAY 2. The Mercy Hospital heist has been confirmed to be Cannon and takes place at the very start of the infection, before it becomes so widespread. In addition, the PAYDAY gang takes blood multiple times from a patient and as they do, his state gets worse and worse as well as showing signs him becoming a Smoker Infected. That would mean not only that the first special was probably a Smoker but that the Gang is responsible for the outbreak as a whole. As for the Boomer being the one studied the most, i would say that's because he's the least aggressive and more likely to be captured, Boomers don't really attack by themselves and instead alert the horde, meaning that they probably easier to isolate and capture than the rest.
I've put 100 hours into l4d2 (just started playing this summer) and I had no idea there was a jimmy gibbs zombie. now I'm hyped and I have something to keep my eyes open for 👀
Don’t know if someone’s already said this or not but you got the Screamer completely wrong. How it would’ve worked is that if you saw it, it’d book it to a safe spot then scream to spawn a hoard (using what would become the Hunter’s scream sound). It was cut because it was tricky for new players to understand, and it was generally unfun to fight as you could easily not notice it and bam extra hoard. Sorry if I’m beating a dead horse here.
I love the uncanniness of the transitions between topics. The background infected screen with it's darkness contrasting to the white text, along with the in game tones, actually kinda scared me. Nice job
Why didn't the mighty algorithm reccommended this to me a lot earlier?! Anyways... amazing and well-made video about an iceberg of one of my all time favourite game! Absolutely loved the transition between stories or iceberg pieces.
"This has led people to speculate that the Midnight Riders are alive" It's semi-confirmed in Dark Carnival, why do people never read the graffiti in saferooms? In the saferoom before the finale, it says the Midnight Riders escaped via helicopter much to the dismay of some other survivors. It's pretty much a 50/50 chance as to whether they were safely transported out or have as much luck as the 8 main survivors and had a Heli crash.
Interesting video. First iceberg video I've watched in it's entirety honestly. Hope to see more of this type of content from you, about to watch your video on the RDR2 mysteries. Hopefully this iceberg video in particular gains your channel some traction, you deserve it. Edit: Was not disappointed by the RDR2 video, would recommend checking it out to anyone who sees this comment even if you binge watched theory and mystery videos on the game years ago, was a nice trip down memory lane for me.
19:51 That is just a clown zombie lmao. You can see the same type of glowing eye effect on a clown in Dark Carnival in the Official L4D2 Intro cinematic at aprox. 1:55.
15:03 I like how the whole gist of Francis is the "I hate [insert current topic]" but I love that Valve just decided to Embellish the idea that steam is something he likes, thats either a big ego or a way to avoid self deprication
9:17 i don't know how to describe it, but "The Saints Will Never Come" is such a sad, dreadful song when you're actually listening closely to it, as opposed to its rather jaunty-sounding nature and upbeat tempo at first glance (especially when you hear it in the heat of gameplay)
i first played l4d2 in like 2012 on my xbox and that was the only game i played cause we were poor and couldnt get anything else, im glad theres still people who are fans of the series cuz its my favorite game of all time and nothing will top it
Some "zombiedogs" sounds are used for the hunter. Such as scratching the doors as hunter. Most noticeable if you play Versus as Hunter. I don't think you can hear him in third person.
If you're one of the people who subscribe to the headcanon (sort of actual canon actually) of PAYDAY and L4D taking place in the same universe, the virus started at Mercy Hospital. In Payday 2, when you get to the Mercy Hospital heist, not only is it the exact same layout as in L4D (just not destroyed) but, Bill can be seen getting into an elevator at the start of the heist, and there is a room in the hospital with a blindfolded patient on a bed. As the heist goes on and you keep taking blood from him to get anitbodies for what Bain (the gang's Oracle so to speak) was infected with, he gets more and more diseased looking and by the end he strongly resembles the zombies in L4D. Just some fun trivia
“I’ve been a fan since 2011 […] god I feel old” Me whose been playing since the original came out on 2008 *bones creaking* “eh, what was that sonny boy?”
4:53 Recently I looked at zoeys select icon and its the same pose as no mercy but with only 2 hands, you could see the same fingers, Valve must've added a new hand but forgot to erase the old one.
So this is kind of like an easteregg thing, makes sense why the military held the survivors in quarantine, because they were infected, but immune and spreads to nonimmune individuals. Thank you, God bless you
@rodesidetrucks Don't worry, I am a fellow Christian as he, but if you are certain that the account is a bot, I will be sure to look out more frequently. Thank you, and God bless you as well
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 I am a christian too but. No offense felllow christian but...

I don't go to church that much because of my busy lifestyle and all. I support him and wish him well. And i am an HL2 fan so i messed around with him with my fanboy knowledge just to make this comment a little funny and all. With that all said. Lesson of the story: This is the internet. Don't bother people with religious stuff and real life stuff too much Once or twice or few times is good depending on the conversation do it too much and you're annoying and cringe and you'll paint a bad image on christians overall.
I always assumed the glow eyed zombie in menu was a clown zombie, since their eyes glow for some reason in game. You can also see it in the intro cinematic when one is climbing up the roller coaster.

About the start of the infection and the first special infected, I think the answer can be found in PAYDAY 2.
The Mercy Hospital heist has been confirmed to be Cannon and takes place at the very start of the infection, before it becomes so widespread.
In addition, the PAYDAY gang takes blood multiple times from a patient and as they do, his state gets worse and worse as well as showing signs him becoming a Smoker Infected.
That would mean not only that the first special was probably a Smoker but that the Gang is responsible for the outbreak as a whole.
As for the Boomer being the one studied the most, i would say that's because he's the least aggressive and more likely to be captured, Boomers don't really attack by themselves and instead alert the horde, meaning that they probably easier to isolate and capture than the rest.
Great video! I consider myself a pretty big L4D fan, and yet your video still taught me a few new things. You have my sub and I can’t wait for part 2!
Found you
I've put 100 hours into l4d2 (just started playing this summer) and I had no idea there was a jimmy gibbs zombie. now I'm hyped and I have something to keep my eyes open for 👀
Don’t know if someone’s already said this or not but you got the Screamer completely wrong. How it would’ve worked is that if you saw it, it’d book it to a safe spot then scream to spawn a hoard (using what would become the Hunter’s scream sound). It was cut because it was tricky for new players to understand, and it was generally unfun to fight as you could easily not notice it and bam extra hoard. Sorry if I’m beating a dead horse here.
I love the uncanniness of the transitions between topics. The background infected screen with it's darkness contrasting to the white text, along with the in game tones, actually kinda scared me. Nice job
It annoyed me tbh watching while trying to sleep
The "So you don't get Left 4 Dead" joke was honestly funny
Why didn't the mighty algorithm reccommended this to me a lot earlier?! Anyways... amazing and well-made video about an iceberg of one of my all time favourite game! Absolutely loved the transition between stories or iceberg pieces.
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 shuddup, bot. And also because of you, Christians have a bad reputation in the Internet.
"This has led people to speculate that the Midnight Riders are alive"
It's semi-confirmed in Dark Carnival, why do people never read the graffiti in saferooms? In the saferoom before the finale, it says the Midnight Riders escaped via helicopter much to the dismay of some other survivors. It's pretty much a 50/50 chance as to whether they were safely transported out or have as much luck as the 8 main survivors and had a Heli crash.
Interesting video. First iceberg video I've watched in it's entirety honestly. Hope to see more of this type of content from you, about to watch your video on the RDR2 mysteries. Hopefully this iceberg video in particular gains your channel some traction, you deserve it.
Edit: Was not disappointed by the RDR2 video, would recommend checking it out to anyone who sees this comment even if you binge watched theory and mystery videos on the game years ago, was a nice trip down memory lane for me.
19:51
That is just a clown zombie lmao.
You can see the same type of glowing eye effect on a clown in Dark Carnival in the Official L4D2 Intro cinematic at aprox. 1:55.
Nice video pal, I have more Easter eggs but is "Customs"
When I think of Purple Francis, I think of Francis who went too far with lean and just became 100% lean
Purple Francis my hero. RIP the beloved one 🥺💜
Fun Fact: Purple Francis' second son was named "Skibbity", possibly named after the trend that came 15 years after L4D
"bro, SHIPS"
Definitely important lore information, all right.
7:48 if we take payday as canon, the first infected would be a smoker, as the patient zero is seen to be turning a smoker
This is well made, can't wait for part 2
15:03 I like how the whole gist of Francis is the "I hate [insert current topic]" but I love that Valve just decided to Embellish the idea that steam is something he likes, thats either a big ego or a way to avoid self deprication
Purple Francis was so legendary
This is the best iceberg video of left 4 dead
9:17 i don't know how to describe it, but "The Saints Will Never Come" is such a sad, dreadful song when you're actually listening closely to it, as opposed to its rather jaunty-sounding nature and upbeat tempo at first glance (especially when you hear it in the heat of gameplay)
It's like the infected are taunting you.
i first played l4d2 in like 2012 on my xbox and that was the only game i played cause we were poor and couldnt get anything else, im glad theres still people who are fans of the series cuz its my favorite game of all time and nothing will top it
Some "zombiedogs" sounds are used for the hunter. Such as scratching the doors as hunter.
Most noticeable if you play Versus as Hunter. I don't think you can hear him in third person.
0:40 zoey turned to boey into real 1 second
this is awesome! plz do more its really well made.
26:05 gnome alone achevement!
This was an amazing video dude! Love me some l4d facts and secrets I didnt know
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 K? Didnt ask
I love l4d2 I love iceberg videos I love valve and heck I think you deserve alot more views for making a l4d2 iceberg.
“I hate your vest”
“Wait what now??”
14:42 When I heard this line in the game for the first time I was just smiling :D
I'm a big fan of Half-Life so that reference made my day
If you're one of the people who subscribe to the headcanon (sort of actual canon actually) of PAYDAY and L4D taking place in the same universe, the virus started at Mercy Hospital. In Payday 2, when you get to the Mercy Hospital heist, not only is it the exact same layout as in L4D (just not destroyed) but, Bill can be seen getting into an elevator at the start of the heist, and there is a room in the hospital with a blindfolded patient on a bed. As the heist goes on and you keep taking blood from him to get anitbodies for what Bain (the gang's Oracle so to speak) was infected with, he gets more and more diseased looking and by the end he strongly resembles the zombies in L4D.
Just some fun trivia
I'm a bit late to the party here but your narration is amazing, and the video editing is great!
“I’ve been a fan since 2011 […] god I feel old”
Me whose been playing since the original came out on 2008 *bones creaking* “eh, what was that sonny boy?”
4:53 Recently I looked at zoeys select icon and its the same pose as no mercy but with only 2 hands, you could see the same fingers, Valve must've added a new hand but forgot to erase the old one.
Very well made Video! I am exciting to see the second part! Keep the good work up!
If special infected become what they are based on life styles, then I hope like hell I never set foot into the bedroom of the Charger.
“Dictated by lifestyle” haha the charger sure had an energetic lifestyle
emphasized by it’s one very big arm and one small arm
Imagine if Source2 L4D dilogy will have survivors teleporting into Dead By Daylight universe and saving Bill
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 we ain't got time for this, Coach
That’s actually true Louis has a tendency to get really excited whenever he picks up a pill
This deserves more veiws
Agreed
Yeah
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 I know, he's my God
This shit is fucking amazing bro cant wait for part 2 the amount of editing youve done is amazing
Excellent work, can't wait for Part 2
The Minecraft cave sounds and the FNAF 2 alarm at 19:40 work surprisingly well together
After playing Left 4 Dead 2 for 2 years, I'm still scared getting chased by Tank.
I've been playing since about 2016 and it terrifies me lmfao
Been playing since 2018 and it still also terrifies me. Especially when there’s more than one.
The way everything is shaking, brrr
I'd go for a BBQ bacon burger, a large order of fries, an orange soda with no ice and a peice of hot apple pie 😊
Boy am I excited for the sequel.
I really loved the work done on this iceberg!
I wish they would re-canonize Purple Francis :(
If there was a Burger Tank around here I'd be a one-man cheeseburger apocalypse
This is awesome, thanks for your hard work : )
No way purple francis predicted skibidi toilet (im joking)
you better not be fucking joking
Im so glad this got recommended to me cuz i love l4d cuz its been apart of my life and Im so glad you made an l4d iceburg
So this is kind of like an easteregg thing, makes sense why the military held the survivors in quarantine, because they were infected, but immune and spreads to nonimmune individuals.
Thank you, God bless you
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629
Thank you, God bless you I will look out for my sins, and I do love God.
I love you❤
@rodesidetrucks
Don't worry, I am a fellow Christian as he, but if you are certain that the account is a bot, I will be sure to look out more frequently.
Thank you, and God bless you as well
Good shit man
Keep it up
You'll go places.
And when i mean places is when i mean sparing you and your ration points.
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 I am a christian too but.
No offense felllow christian but...
You need to know i am doing this ironically and i do not really mean anything bad to him like physically hurting him or denying him of his freedom and stuff.
I don't go to church that much because of my busy lifestyle and all.
I support him and wish him well.
And i am an HL2 fan so i messed around with him with my fanboy knowledge just to make this comment a little funny and all.
With that all said.
Lesson of the story: This is the internet.
Don't bother people with religious stuff and real life stuff too much
Once or twice or few times is good depending on the conversation do it too much and you're annoying and cringe and you'll paint a bad image on christians overall.
Hey mate, Great Video!
I do wanna know though, what are the mods you use in the video? They look well made and incredible!
Good day / night now.
I always assumed the glow eyed zombie in menu was a clown zombie, since their eyes glow for some reason in game. You can also see it in the intro cinematic when one is climbing up the roller coaster.
back 4 blood does not deserve to be called left 4 dead 3
great Video Bro! looking forward to Part 2! :D
I played this when I was 4 or 5 I think. I speedruned the passing at the age of 5
Crazy bro
Yeah my brother kinda put a controller in my hand and was like “just run and shoot”. A decade later I’m still doing that.
