Back for Blood

Post by Danimal »

Starting tomorrow until the 16th I believe there is an open beta for Back for Blood. This game is made by the people who did Left 4 Dead which is a game that has some of my favorite gaming memories not only here at DSP but with other friends. I played a little bit of the closed beta and it is a bit deeper game then L4D. You can level characters, the missions are a bit more complex then get from point A to B.

I suggest giving it a look if you even remotely liked L4D or you're looking for a co-op shooter.

Thanks, my daughter is a L4D junkie so I'm thinking she will love this.

Just in case anyone is unaware this launches on the 12th and is free on Game Pass for the PC and Xbox.

I played in the beta and it is way more fun playing with people you know. Anyone want to download this and give it a shot on the Xbox?

This came out yesterday, I played it and had fun. Brought back the L4D memories. I like the cards you use on your character.

Bot AI is terrible so you need a group of friends or brave the darkness that is randos.

I wouldn't pay $40 for it but it is free on Gamepass.

Yeah, it's alright. I'd go further and say that it sucks with randoms. I think it'd be hilarious with friends, but I wasn't feeling the selfish and clueless random players.

I tired it because of Game Pass and Its not bad. I’ve read where the game is likened to L4D2. I’m not feeling that. This game reminds me more of DOOM than it does L4D2. The gameplay is pretty fast and the Zombies run and come after you in hordes like they do in DOOM. I’m still trying to figure out the Card system and how to heal and revive. I tried to heal a Bot and I kept healing myself instead.

Wrt the Card system, is it automatic and in order or can you play a card manually and if so, how? I played the tutorial and that wasn’t answered unless I missed something.

Back for Blood is made by the same team who made Left for Dead and they called it a spiritual successor but whatever LOL
