The creative refers to the fact that each character “has their starting equipment, the weapons and objects they start with”; but it also talks about ” certain advantages ” that at higher levels of difficulty can be decisive for success. “Someone may heal faster, or bring in some extra ammo.” Therefore, although initially we will most likely choose characters based on their appearance, as things get difficult, fans will begin “to use these characters based on their qualities, that is, being more strategic as they go. you advance “

Although undoubtedly the card system is the one that makes the most difference with respect to the legendary Left 4 Dead. “We are a totally cooperative oriented game. So it was very important to ensure that B4B was very accessible, that you can play anytime with your friends regardless of your skill level .” That’s why, adds Chris Ashton, it doesn’t matter if a player has played “a thousand hours and you only play ten; we wanted you to be able to team up and jump into action regardless.
So this progression system with cards is looking for you to be able to get things done and fight even better. The idea of Turtle Rock is that the cards you use for yourself can also sometimes benefit the team, for example improving their medicine cabinets.
With four players in action, each of them could specialize in a specific task , such as the healer, or the one that provides ammunition or causes more damage; and it is that kind of combat strategies that want to make the difference with other games of the style. Also, adds the creative, these cards can be stacked, so if two players use two cards of the same style, their effect is increased.Back 4 Blood discards mods at launch.
Not forgetting that there are many more customization options by also having weapon modifiers such as sights, chargers or silencers; as well as various gadgets and extra resources such as grenades, Molotov cocktails or even barbed wire to protect the position.
As we said above about Back 4 Blood after playing the spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead , the Turtle Rock game also has a new competitive multiplayer that has pleasantly surprised us.In this same interview Chris Ashton confirmed that Back 4 Blood runs out of mods at launch , although they may later include them. On the other hand, we remind you that the game will be available from day one on Xbox Game Pass, which is exciting to Turtle Rock .
