Imagine how much harder this would've been with the old B4B AI Survivors. On some finales they would just get stuck on certain parts of the map or jump straight to their death. I'd be running through solo and suddenly I have 1 CPU left because the other 2 just decided to go for a swim. Then there was the weird bugs that happened with the individual AIs for the survivors, a couple of them were *genuinely useless* because they wouldn't shoot enemies unless actively getting hit by them, would walk straight into map hazards and bosses, and there was no way to prevent them from joining your team unless you or another actual player picked those specific characters so the AI couldn't which limited your deck builds since some don't work as well on other characters The AI used to be so bad that even after they added a solo option (there wasn't one on release) you essentially still had to queue with random people or you'd lose on anything outside of recruit difficulty

[@theotv5522]

Well then it's a good thing they're better now, yes? Can we put the past behind us and enjoy the present?

[@Snamwiches]

I can report they still do all that on occasion haha, but yeah I’m so glad they added solo progress back in. Idk why they thought it was a good idea to do that in the first place lol

[@ValerieHeart]

I'm actually just in awe you did this all with the bots... Me and my full team of friends were at our wits end doing No Hope campaigns since launch and before act 5 and 6 were even a thing. I know the bots got way better since then, (they straight up would not revive you when down and no one was around), but their AI is SO bad still. I was almost positive you'd throw in the towel and call in at least one friend to help, but nope! Kudos! Take my like button press.

[@Snamwiches]

Now they went from not reviving you to reviving you TOO much lmao

[@NixAzrael]

yeah, these days a full team of real people almost puts you at a disadvantage... I've seen people say it's easiest with one real person and only gets harder as you add more real people (not totally sure i agree with that, but i can see a case for two being better than three?)

[@ValerieHeart]

@@NixAzrael I guess it depends. If you're with random players it might be just as bad with bots but with a group of people/friends you coordinate with it makes it way more manageable with coms.

[@kentblackgaming]

@ValerieHeart it is better to do no hope with the bots than friends. the bots have unlimited heals, grenades and ammo. All you need is a grenade/medkit build and it makes the runs possible

Despite all the zombies, ogres, hags and npcs deaths... the true evil could never be avoided... those goddamn beartraps

[@CutestDemon]

One painful thing to see, is that even in L4D2, if there's ONE survivor left, it is genuinely usually possible to finish the game, just REALLY difficult, and you have to time it, such as cutting/shooting a moving smoker tongue to save yourself This game so far, doesnt seem to have one. A charger? evade left/right, Jockey? melee push mid jump, hunter? evade too, just push asap. And iirc, it has a couple mechanics to make it possible by lowering certain specials at times. But this? It's just "Oh? You're alone? THOUSAND UNINTERRUPTABLE DOWNERS UPON YE"

[@theotv5522]

Which is why in L4D2 it accidentally created these trolls/dikheads that rush ahead and leaving the team behind. Even if they're good enough to handle themselves, now you essentially playing with just 3 players because the game allows him to go solo, while you dealing with the angry zombies that guy aggro-ed, usually leaving you overwhelmed. Like, I like L4D2 as a game, clocked in 3k hrs myself, but I will never understand how a TEAM-oriented game allows players to go solo like this, and saying what you said is not an upside.

[@squashiejoshie200000]

@@theotv5522 It absolutely is an upside. Dude, playing solo on difficulties above normal with the bots doing nothing and getting killed, you need the capability to make it through. Playing solo shouldn't be a babysitting simulator where you are forced to shepherd 3 clueless lemmings past thousands of cliffs. Yeah, I preferred it when the team stayed together, but being able to complete it solo also means that if 3 of you are getting overwhelmed, it's a skill issue, because 1 person can deal with this alone.

[@theotv5522]

@@squashiejoshie200000that’s an AI issue, and not the actual reason why Valve let you go solo. “The AI sucks so instead of fixing it, we let you solo the game” is like saying “My house is leaking, I’m gonna sleep outside now”

No kidding. I remember one of the DLC levels we got absolutely fucked on the corruption cards. That we had lost a good 10 times at the minimum. Only reason we didn’t reset and kept burning continues was because we were already halfway in the chapter. We had unintentionally found a glitch that saved our asses. There’s a card that favors you 5% interest on your copper when you enter the safe room. Respawning at one after you fail triggers that too. Same with another card that I had that heals 15 health and 7 trauma to the whole team. So after many failed attempts we noticed that we had more money then we did initially and we were full health. That was the only reason we beat this piece of shit game.

It's funny how no hope introduced the ability to start with all of your loadout cards at the start, the game use to be much tougher by only letting you start an act with 3 cards then pick a card from your loadout between levels. Also at 55:53 you absolutely can melee while carrying boxes, at least on controller it's R3 which you pull out a combat knife even if you didn't pick that card and you can hold R3 to auto attack. As a melee first player this stood out to be corrected. Glad to see you succeed with the challenge

Comms help too but if everyone understands their role then its not necessary it would be cool to see bro squad up! Edit: melee because melee build is a tank build and good wave clear. gun build to help w/ wave clear and special infected. Medic/Support because heals and money are important with reduced spawn rates.

[@akoskralik3053]

I personally would have stuck with Tala throughout the whole thing. She is undoubtedly the best Cleaner in the game. Bleed damage helps termendously with bosses, +1 warped chest means way more great gear, and Jeff is a huge help for hordes, and he can be called by anyone picking up the whistle. Not to mention she starts with the bow, which uses stamina instead of ammo.

[@Snamwiches]

Yeah I don’t disagree, I mainly just thought that Sharice was great for my melee build since I would barely get by the hordes and less trauma to heal up on would go MILES in the marathon that was the long acts

[@NixAzrael]

tala is a pretty good bot to have if you reroll the game at the beginning until you get her, because she'll still spawn warped chests, and also anybody can find and use the whistle (Jeff OP, Jeff is best boy)

Bravo! As someone else who has also done No Hope with bots, I can totally relate to your frustrations, especially because you went into it relatively blind to the inner mechanics of the game. Heres some things that make the playthrough much easier: - Play as Tala. Undoubtedly the best cleaner with Jeff, bleed, and the warped chests to gain better loot - Use an economy build. Copper is huge in this game, and having a surplus of cash can give the players more cards, upgrades on their gear, and constant resupply - Use the card that gives an extra life when using a medkit or defib. This can be super useful for keeping everyone with high lives, especially with an economy deck/reuse chance build -Intentionally swap to bots more often. Supply them with pipe bombs, first aid, and other gear. Give them rare weapons to improve their combat capabilities. - Take all ridden hives. The extra equipment and copper makes them well worth the investment. ------- Overall doing some research beforehand and optimizing your deck can go a super long way in this mode! This video was definitely the “work harder, not smarter” but honestly that’s what made it so entertaining! Mad props, I don’t think I could’ve pulled it off with your decks!

Snam's worst enemies: Bear traps

[@Soul-Reaverr]

Proud to say I got all the trophies and of my mates got all the achievements in the first months when the game came out. Nightmare was no joke, was super hard to get into the first levels, due to the fact that the game just didn''t give you all the cards from the start, that's what make no hope easier, because it gives you all the cards straight away. I think me and my friend attempted that house mission towards the end over 50 times and only managed to beat it then because some guy off pc had used an infinite grenade glitch lol xDD They really nerfed the game to the point where it became too easy and sadly the content wasn't enough for the player base.

[@EggedAegis]

26:10 Silly Snam, thats no Mortar! That’s an M119 Howitzer Artillery Gun! Created in 1989 and still used today by the US Army, it’s manned by a crew of 5-8 men!

[@mxstroblique8792]

Really underrated game. The card system is elite!

[@Sith9890]

got onto the Snam train via the collab with Ray, been going through the back catalog whilst waiting for a new video the time has come

[@SnivyTries]

"Made by the people who made Left 4 Dead 2" Which people? Clearly not the level designers, or the people who made the AI Director, or the ally AI...or the balance team...it might have been the sound designers.

My favorite build for no hope games is melee Tala. Bear claws w/built in bleed+talas passive bleed plus healing attachment on claws = best survivability. Edit: if you get the grim reaper on any melee weapon and use flashbacks, you can instakill ogres and breakers as well

[@BananakinSplitwalker]

see what I chose to do for no hope was build an economy deck complimented by a half assed shotgun deck to start, the eco deck makes it so I can afford any card I come across in the wild, and upgrade in the shops, fully stock on equipment, etc. taking every hive I could because thats a separate level with more cards and shit to find, very easy to become a god, a god that gets insta om nomed by a hag and fuckin dies anyway because unless you have a flash you better hope you kill it instantly since as okay as the AI are, they can't deal with that thing.

[@kitsudoll3411]

You've got to be the most bubbly and anti-tilt challenge KZbinr ever! STILL loving your content!

[@Vxertzu]

I am 2 achievements from 100% on B4B. Done both act 5 and 6 on No hope and other misc ones. I only have get 53K ridden kills and Swarm left. I commend you for doing all acts No Hope. As if you didn't know, NH is a difficulty specifically DESIGNED for you to have teammates. Bravo Snam bravo. Edit: To add on the health thing. Green bars mean Bolstered health and orange armour next to the player icon is just regular armour. Bolstered is like Temp HP but goes over your temp health and decays faster. Armour allows you to take big hits from special Ridden and not take any damage. However this doesnt not protect you from regular damage from normal ridden, traps burning etc.

I was obsessed with this game for a while and platted it, every single time ive tried to return to it I just wonder what was wrong with me. Can't get into it at all anymore.

This game is wildly underrated, me and friends found it to be the best coop zombie shooter by far. Beating No Hope is an adventure. Also playing with bots is easier in ways than playing with a dedicated group, either way it's tough though...

[@jazzyjswift]

It really is. It had a terrible hate campaign launched against it by L4D fanboys who didn't get the game they had imagined in their heads, so they went out of their way to paint it as a horrible game. But it's not. Its' actually very VERY similar to L4D but with enough added changes that give it enough to be a "spiritual successor" to L4D - which is what it was marketed as from the very start. Nearly every criticism lobbied against this game is either provably false or completely pointless and just thrown up to try and make it look bad, like the 6 tombstones in the single map that has graves not having 'realistic destruction physics' like in L4D, or the death ragdolling not being mocapped. As far as I'm aware, most people aren't playing either L4D or B4B because of how the bodies fall when they die. Who cares? It's just a point brought up to attack B4B.The game was essentially doomed by the L4D community because it wasn't by Valve, pure and simple.

[@roki8062]

@@jazzyjswift But the critisism it got was deserved. The story is nonexistent, characters are boring, multiplayer is not fun and this game is just too clunky to play. You say that things like "destructable environment" and "how bodies fall" dont matter but they really do in Horde shooters. If you have fun in this game then good for you but dont think that the hate it gets is out of nowhere.

[@zsookah3]

@@roki8062 A lot of the hate was from Crowbat's KZbin video that served as a bias hit piece against the game. He highlighted how L4D2 has better music, facial animations, death animations, and little things like fire, or water animations. Yet he didn't highlight a single thing B4B does better, such as the immensely deep perk card system, with over 200 cards. The many different enemy, and hazards types. Or the extensive array of weapons, with varied attachments, and rarities. Essentially adding a heavy rogue lite aspect to the game. Not the mention the gameplay is very good, with snappy controls, and rewarding skill based combat through a linear, yet quite long campaign. Myself, and the several friends I played the game with fully agreed that having significantly deeper gameplay mechanics were more important to us that things you don't notice much in this genre of games, such as facial animations, or story. L4D2 is a true classic, and better for its time, but I think B4B is better by current standards, the gameplay is on another level. Also B4B was poorly marketed, it shouldn't have relied on such a strong connection to L4D, touting that it had some original devs on its team. It would have absolutely been more well received if it was made more apparent that it was different. The overly hard difficulty turned people away early on as well, but that was fully fixed a couple months later with the holiday update. Also it sounds like you didn't like the game, which is totally fine, but multiplayer is excellent in B4B, even the lobby system makes for fast matches. But the game really relies on good communication, and teamwork, it is often an engaging experience. Also I wouldn't say the game is clunky at all, we had always noted that the controls in B4B are extremely snappy, and fast. I've yet to play an FPS with such responsive movement, though it's not very realistic. Something like Halo Infinite is close, but that of course has the stylistic choice of a lower gravity feel. B4B is objectively a good game. To some it's excellent, and to some it's bad. But it's certainly worth trying out.

[@CosmicIsStoned]

​@zsookah3 Aint no way you're trying to deflect valid criticism by crying about Crowbcat. Ain't reading the rest of that garbage essay. Game sucks. Case closed. Go Ride TurtleMockStudios somewhere else

Snam continues to bless us with the most amazing content. I legitimately thought this was unbeatable with bots, especially given how hard Expert Realism on L4D2 was. But nope, you did it. Incredible.

I wish Valve would make L4D 3.

[@steelbear2063]

What is 3?

[@lynnrandall5150]

I like this game a little more then L4D2 it's more polished because it's newer and has WAY more levels more customizations and the biggest feature I love is YOU CAN ACTUALLY AIM THE FIREARMS YOUR USING❤

[@theotv5522]

As someone who has 3k rs in L4D2, B4B is a great game, something I can chew on while I wait hopelessly for new L4D2 content (this is a cope).

It was awesome being there for so many of the great moments. Highly recommend watching the streams live!
