Left 4 Dead's STRESSFUL Achievements

Left 4 Dead is one of my favourite Xbox 360 era games so it's only right I finish off the achievements I never could back in 2008.
It is just as good as I remember.

[@JForJackPlays]

MagicBullet MVP

[@rabbithousemusic2784]

How come you never invited him back? I was hoping for a very dramatic plot twist to where you two are about to die and Magic Bullet joins to save you two

[@gamersthegamer4800]

@@rabbithousemusic2784 prob cause it was a one time thing

[@JForJackPlays]

I spoke to him briefly afterwards via some xbox messages so who knows maybe he will return one day haha

[@wolfmaster646]

Was this on Xbox one or above?

[@LostShipMate]

The one other guy still looking for group in a decades old game, certainly a MVP.

[@KenadiWaymire]

So happy to see you making a video on this amazing game. L4D1 and L4D2 are easily some of my favorite games of all time. They've provided countless hours of fun and stress.

[@JForJackPlays]

Left 4 dead 2 is currently in progress. Might take a while though 😂 2/5 campaigns done! Doing them with my buddy again whenever we can get together

[@KenadiWaymire]

@@JForJackPlays Great to hear! Will wait for that video excitedly. Love the content.

[@ForeskinClippings]

Not bill just swooping those pills bruh 💀 4:04

[@jsnnF]

fr i thought it was a player that joined at first lmao

[@40proofbleach81]

Why do you have to hit me with the 2008 nostalgia, that was my grade 8 for my best buds and I.😢

[@JForJackPlays]

I won't let you forget it!

[@Criggster]

I was just thinking about playing this on local multiplayer with my friends back then. I remember we would all get SILENT as soon as someone heard a witch so the people playing could hear. It was so intense 😂

[@TNT_FrostyCold2]

11:04 you can hear a man happy to beat the chapter

[@JForJackPlays]

haha so I accidentally had my laptop mic recording for that run and what you heard was Joe's joy. Was kinda funny though so might do it more often..

[@probablybears]

At 4:54, it's not infinitely spawning. There's several large waves of them, but they will eventually end. The best spot for that event for anyone wondering, is blowing up the gas pumps, climbing up the rubble, and there's a closet with only one entrance you can hold out in. L4D2 is probably different, I don't remember the changes made there.

[@JForJackPlays]

oh very interesting to know, thanks! if i ever help any friends with the campaigns i'll make sure to remember that

[@phoenixrose1995]

yeah, it may feel like an infinite horde, because when you are just staying there to fend off the hordes, sometimes the director will get mad and send another horde that is unrelated to the crescendo event because the director thinks "they are not progressing" , which makes you go "is this infinite hordes?"

[@uTobias]

That hunter pounce on your friend would of been where I would of stopped for the night haha. Great video!

[@GloomRng]

I'm pretty sure we had a time out after that

[@kevinl606]

That one hurt so much but I get why he laughed because it was so unbelievable 🤣🤣

[@KrabikGangster]

Listening to your stories of how you and a friend went through the game on the last level of difficulty is incredibly interesting! I even like this idea, the most difficult challenges together with your friends bring you and your friend very much closer! It's like you're going through hell together!

[@JForJackPlays]

Don't worry, we are currently going through more hell trying to get l4d2 done whenever we have time together. Getting there with it!

[@KrabikGangster]

@@JForJackPlays I hope you achieve your goal!

[@LG_XD]

It's really cool to see the perspective of someone who has forgotten a lot of the game.

[@MildManneredBen]

Great video and incredible effort on what is a really difficult achievement!

[@JForJackPlays]

Thanks a lot!

[@Snamwiches]

I’m so glad we had a similar experience with this so I feel like less of a scrub haha. 3-3 and 4-5 were HELL. Grats on the achievement!

[@JForJackPlays]

We were saying we don't know how you managed to survive blood harvest with all the bots alive 🤣 Love your vids and congrats on the crazy growth, well deserved!

[@Twist-The-Friendly-Hunter]

I'm basically JforJack but instead of going back and getting achievements from old games... I'm going back and playing game franchises I never played when I was younger. The first game franchise I got started on was... MASS EFFECT. jesus christ what a trio of games, I genuinely loved it so much I'm excited for the new one. Crysis, a weird sci fi game I genuinely enjoyed... weird as hell at times but fun as f***. The list now is this. Bioshock, all of them. The witcher, all of them. Morrowind and oblivion if I can. Left for dead the original one. Portal 1 and 2. That's it so far. My goal as a mid was to at some point reach 100k gamerscore. I forget where I'm at but I'm close... I literally 100% just cause 2, 3 and 4 because I was bored and that unfortunately didn't register for 2 because that game had bugs.

[@JForJackPlays]

BioShock 1 is probably my favourite ever game so let me know what you think when you've played it! Good luck with your adventures

[@Ammut6]

If you want to go really old school I'd reccomend adding Syphon Filter to your list. At least the first three as they are considered the "real trilogy" and the ones afterwards were seen as just filler.

[@Dajudge06]

L4D 1 and 2 hold such great memories for me. Playing on the 360 I jumped into a group with this lovely couple that I became friends with, so many hours spent playing all kinds of stuff together.

[@raritymademydress7094]

Love these videos, big fan of left for dead so I was hype to see this in the subbox

[@StealthyZombie]

Excellent game with some fantastic, feel good achievements. Welcome to the 100% club! Now on to L4D2.

[@cheddar813]

I love how much love these games still get, well done lad

[@bfums]

After watching about 10 of your videos, I’m shocked to see you not being a 100k+ sub creator. Seriously amazing content

[@JForJackPlays]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@nedflanders5690]

Sick videos mate, I think I've watched all of your achievement series and I'm loving it, once you (eventually) get through all your achievements on games you played, I'd enjoy watching you get all achievements on other games you may not have played back in the day but always wanted to, keep up the great work!

[@JForJackPlays]

Thanks a lot. I have lots planned 😎

[@jakebolger6248]

Great video, so much nostalgia for this game! Always loved whenever a random player joined and you go through some shit with them

[@JForJackPlays]

thank you very much, and yes it was great people still joined even these days

[@ruinfox4108]

I wish i had friends like you, someone who actually wants to try and do this type of random stuff, most folk will find it boring, or not fun, but this is right up my alley. what i meant is play left 4 dead 1 and doing these achievements, if your on PC not sure about console, you choose L4D2 instead of L4D1 cause after the "The Last Stand" update for l4d2 and the million bug fixes that came with that update, L4D2 is the definitive version for both L4D1 & 2 maps.

[@Kal_El1994]

All of the spots you guys camped in in all the Campaigns, gave me SUCH nostalgia kicks. Especially the bathroom at the Boat House finale. In Blood Harvest, we used to camp in the living room - that always worked for us hahah. Great times. L4D1 is one of my all time favourite games.

[@jess_xo]

Really enjoyed this video, Nostalgia overload!! You also have a very soothing voice which makes for an enjoyable viewing:)

[@JForJackPlays]

thanks for the kind words! got a few games on the go atm and lots more planned

[@SayonaRalphyy]

I'm loving these achievement videos. New sub!

[@JForJackPlays]

Thank you!

[@kriptiknukez5202]

Great video, don’t think I’d have the patience for this

[@BakuDekulove535]

Left 4 Dead and 2 is such an amazing game I don't think that I will never stop playing this game ever. Greatest games of all time.

[@Itsactuallysmallaf]

The smoker at 4:14 was too much 😂😂😂 I jumped out the window and was immediately killed 😂😂😂

[@EffigyXBL]

I'm addicted to videos like this. I've started making some myself, and after seeing Snam and you both do L4D, I'm SO tempted. I bought the DLCs I was missing the other day as they were being delisted and I basically just have Expert on L4D and L4D2 to do, but I'm not sure I'm as brave as you guys.

[@JForJackPlays]

sorry just saw this comment was held for review for some reason so didnt see it until now. you should deffo go for them! they're such good games.. but hard yes. L4D2 is probably going to take me quite some time to get done!

[@MisterChappy]

loving these

[@dylanf4725]

This whole video I thought you were on Steam. When I saw the 360 menu it brought back memories. How nostalgic man... bravo

[@Kazou_Yashiki]

i still remember reviving people downed in versus as a infected it was funny getting messages afterwards.

[@DJC-System]

I would love to see you do a similar thing but with Left 4 Dead 2. Love your commentary on each map and hearing your experiences. Brings back great memories of simpler times. **EDIT** I just made it to the end of the video where you said you'll be doing this for Left 4 Dead 2. I'ma subscribe with that bell on so I don't miss it. Keep up the great content!

[@JForJackPlays]

thank you very much! got a few coming before l4d2 i think but its deffo on the list for soon-ish

[@frodgelent2693]

Love this video and absolutely love this game!

[@JForJackPlays]

Thank you!

[@Paccyd33]

Good to see more left 4 dead content, it seems like it’s always l4d2 this and l4d2 that and nobody talks about the first.

[@JForJackPlays]

thanks for the kind words. got many more planned and l4d2 is one of them! might take a while though..

[@glossyorange]

Great video!

[@phoenixrose1995]

as for the Tank dying randomly.. i believe that if the Tank spawns and can not see you/reach you the moment he spawns, the Tank just stands still and eventually dies. this type of cheese is also used in L4D2 speedruns for the finals

[@AJK156]

Salute to MagicBullet

[@Bl4ckD0g]

The Tank falling off the Hospital Roof is one of the best things to have happen. It's happened to me a couple of times.

[@dieselreapers4328]

I remember back in 08 playing this game and man L4D 1&2 were some of the best games of all time. Basically a perfect game man, I wouldn’t be mad if they made another one to end the series

[@nottipack4385]

They did make a 3rd

[@totallynotgingy]

@@nottipack4385 its “back 4 blood” right?

[@the-postal-dude]

@@nottipack4385 they didn't. back 4 blood was made by a completely different team, not even valve.

@@nottipack4385 "they" refers to valve. there were only like, 3 ex valve members out of many employees. b4b is a spiritual successor, but it's not good anyway :/

Somewhere out there MagicBullet sat back happy to play with some cool guys on Expert.

[@2PacStoleMyBike]

As someone who runs this game regularly on pc still, it’s crazy to hear you guys completing no mercy on expert in 2 hrs lol. Glad you guys managed to push through tho! 🍻

[@JForJackPlays]

We are washed up gamers but we are trying our best 😎

[@thatonepseudotwin7775]

Just as you finished your last achievement, bill said his famous line. "we just crossed the street"

[@simonkilabuk7206]

Playing l4d on expert is so bloody hell and fun, congrats on this stressful achievement.

[@Stewie400th]

Here's a fun fact about the tank whenever there's a player in versus controlling the tank if the tank do not attack they will lose control except if AI tank does not attack anybody game kills them in order to save up aren't using too much disk space and just so they don't annoy you with the music

[@hihosh1]

I find one of the safest places to hold out on expert is in the kitchen on Blood Harvest's finale. you can also shoot an armchair to block the door which helps slow down the infected. Also you should just make a beeline for the farmhouse immediately after the horde starts in the cornfield, the horde ends when you reach the farm house. From what I know of Dead Air that crescendo is easy if you stand on the scaffolding close to the fire

[@Knuxfan24]

Oddly, when me and some friends did Expert, we found No Mercy to be the biggest pain in the ass, and I THINK Blood Harvest's finale was first try (if not a couple). From memory, our hold locations were: No Mercy - The roof of the building with the radio, up on the generator like things Death Toll - The dock Dead Air - The wide open area alongside the plane Blood Harvest - The bathroom at the top of the stairs

[@Paccyd33]

Great video, subbed

[@JForJackPlays]

thank you very much! glad you enjoyed

[@christianvelasquez5741]

13:30 that hunter was out for blood😂

[@gamejunk1e]

I think the reason why sometimes the tank dies in the distance is because when the tank doesn't see a player after I believe, 20 seconds? It despawns.

[@JAiZYouTube]

You're partially correct. The tank will die/despawn in 2 situations: Either it is too far from the survivors, or it is stuck. If it's stuck, or otherwise cannot path to any of the survivors, it will die pretty quickly, I think in around 10-15 seconds. If you run past it, and leave it far behind, then it will eventually time-out, I think this takes around a minute.

[@gamejunk1e]

@@JAiZKZbin Being corrected by the real Jaiz was not something I expected but that's pretty cool! Good work on the TLS update btw.

[@jessicastrike5640]

Would love to see a video of you getting all the achievements in the Arkham games, I think they’re actually a pretty fun and easy time, except the challenge maps some of them took me forever

[@JForJackPlays]

hey, thanks for the suggestion. those have absolutely crossed my mind! Currently working on mopping up a few other games that i have "nearly" finished. will certainly get to the arkham games though

[@DavidVanPatten358]

Really proud of you boys dealing with this tough achievement! I remember doing this offline MYSELF but still got all 65 achievements. Anyway, go play Dead Rising, that game has great achievements!

[@JForJackPlays]

Never played it but it's on the list 😎

Underrated channel.

[@JForJackPlays]

Thank you!

[@donqon]

Recently got L4D2 done. Didn’t have anyone to play with, and I didn’t want to find a group to do the 5 Expert campaigns, so I loaded up a Mutation called Last Man on Earth and chose Expert difficulty. This pits you against only special infected and you get one free “get out of a special lock” card I think as long as your health is high enough

[@Ammut6]

Well thats no fun. Play through thr original! :)

[@donqon]

@@Ammut6took your advice and beat every campaign on expert in their respective game with bots only, and it was really fun

[@OscarHernandez-dm7hp]

It was a pain to play it on expert with bots . That was fun good memories

[@GalakStari]

I know what you mean lol. I recently beat 3 of the 4 campaigns on Expert. I died several times and the bots often made it so much harder to get through because they would either save me too late or they wouldn’t go where I needless them during Crescendo Events and Finales.

[@bro7plays197]

This is such a fun game to complete.

[@thetrueunknown]

funny thing about that wall unit it was actually taken away in the game mode versus because of that reason, the good old days i tell you.

[@toothyvl7000]

Originally 100% L4D back in the day, was the first Xbox game I ever did it on, when the dlc achievements hit I put off completing those until a few weeks ago, happy to finally lock it down, some of the best early online gaming memories I have were on this game

[@theaverageliftingguy1993]

Man this is such a great game. I always loved 1 shotting the witch in the back of the head. So much nostalgia. ❤

[@DavidYun775]

6:07 God damn, Bill got sent flying

[@Shmandalf]

This was the kinda game we would skip class in High School to play, lol. Still holds up, such a classic

amazing game. slowly working on l4d2 with a friend and it's absolutely brutal

[@irishguy167]

He's fucking done it again legend

[@iVETAnsolini]

At the end of no mercy I’ve had tanks run off the roof

[@wisemysticaltree6921]

I think the best spot on the finale in blood harvest is on top on the laundry machines in one of the bedrooms I think it’s the one closet to the bathroom it’s definitely a good spot because it was taken out in l4d2

[@ghostlyjudge]

this and left 4 dead 2 i miss it

[@heavensgate2245]

The tank in both games has a rage meter, and in order to keep it up, he has to attack the sruvivors either by punching them, or throwing a rock at them If said meter runs out, the Tank dies The levels are also divided into "sections" in the code, meaning that SI will die if you get far enough from said area

[@memegirl4029]

Hell yeah brother, massive nostalgia!

[@JForJackPlays]

Knew you'd love it!

[@kawii9793]

Are you from US or EU? I still miss most of the L4D2 Achievements lol Great video, I love this series! How do you record your Gameplay on the X360?

[@JForJackPlays]

I'm English. and thanks a lot! I got a cheap capture card splitter thing but it seems to work very well. Plugs in from my xbox to my pc/laptop

[@phoenixrose1995]

here is something you might not have realized. in the first Left 4 Dead game and only the first one, when you set a Tank on fire, they get increased movement speed, which i think makes them either the same speed as a full health survivor, or makes them just ever so slightly faster. in Left 4 dead 2 however tanks no longer gain movement speed when set on fire :)

[@RemnantPriest]

Man, playing L4D on the hardest difficulty is amazingly challenging I love it

[@aaronezzo3846]

the achievements for l4d2 on pc r insane. there r 101 and one of them requires u to help someone beat a campaign during a free weekend so it’s basically impossible to get. the infamous good guy nick achievement

[@sashapinesnguyenhienhoa8003]

Expert is neither too unforgiving nor forgiving "the nonsense man"

[@madeline3832]

well now i'm curious, you said this was one of two games you pre ordered but what's the other one lol (also great video as always :)

[@JForJackPlays]

Gears of War 2 Not sure I can ever do a video on that though because I'm only missing super boring grindy achievements. (level 100 & Seriously 2.0) and thanks for the kind words!

finally L4D

I can't be the only one that cares about all the characters and when one of them dies i go through the 7 stages of grief

Guess i did play too much of this, as it never occurred to me, that this might be a hard achiev, or the 50k is any real number of zombies. This game was a blast

[@GreenDinoRanger]

I remember when my friend helped me go through Dead Air on expert, we were huddled on top of the plane and he junoed down to early so I jumped down to help him out, got surrounded and downed and he escaped and got the achievement.

honestly i can only imagine how difficult blood harvest to do on expert if you have the campaign on left 4 dead 2 cause now you gotta deal with chargers, spitters, and jockeys as well, so sounds fun XD

[@themightysusbus8695]

Actually the reason for the genocide being such a high number, is because I the hospital I think there is writing on the wall where someone states they killed 53,000+ zombies. So it's going along that writing.

[@Ansemrp]

This looks like a non-updated console version. Dang, takes me back.

[@danielmaher5352]

Hey, nice video - For that cheap death on the second campaign - you can actually see your character in the water during the ending cinematic at @10:00, I think you clipped through the floor of the boat and died - nothing to do with zombies hahaha

[@danielmaher5352]

on second thoughts - it kinda looks like francis , who was already supposed to be dead. so weird

[@Cyril-Figgis1]

At least you had someone though damn. Did all these achievements solo and that would leave anyone to breaking their controller
