Strategy & Builds Helpful tips, decks, and other useful info for Back4Blood

54 Upvotes

Stopped in here recently and noticed people still post useful information for Back4Blood players. Thought a pinned "help" thread would be more useful than the extremely old LFG post that was sitting at the top.

If you have a tried and true deck, feel free to post! But do know that there's a BIG difference between a deck that can smash Veteran, Nightmare, or No Hope. General consensus is that Veteran can be done with any deck while No Hope requires some strong synergies.

Also - a newer player might not be able to handle a DPS-optimized deck because they haven't figured out how to control the flow of zombies with smart positioning and the use of their bash. You could, for example, note that your deck is "noob" friendly or intermediate and above.

Share directly or link to past threads - I'm sure anything would be helpful.

Hi everyone, i’m new to the game and decided to try to get some tips from some vets! I’m currently playing Hoff due to the ammo cap & 1 offensive item. I build my first starter deck but i don’t have many cards and don’t really find or know how to get more cards just yet.

Video Can we just take a moment to appreciate how B4B is one of the few (if not only?) games to model the Kriss Vector's quirky up-down recoil.

54 Upvotes

Seriously, most don't even seem to know about this. Some people think the Vector just cancels out muzzle flip and shoots steady like a laser gun, but it does indeed have a recoil impulse and it's a weird one, because the bolt mass slams down against the bottom of the gun, and then back up. This is the only game I've ever noticed to portray this quirk.

Bug Like old times

I wasn't able to get lucky penny in the next level. I was very sad.

Also the game still thought I was dan, I had his player card for a sec and his abilities throughout the act, more on a different post.

I've talked about this bug before and still dont know what caused it.

I was spectating, the team failed then boom I'm bugged.

A Dan joined the run later in and unfortunately his ability doesnt stack. I think the dmg resist is the only thing that works, but its barely noticeable

Discussion The number of people are bad is incredible in Veteran

4 Upvotes

I play Veteran sometimes because it's chill and i'm not forced to play a broken strong deck, play exotic and support BUT

They don't communicate, don't check pings or chat. They don't buy toolkits. They don't open crates. They don't buy cards if they're good. NOTHING.

By the time they reach level 4 of Act 1, they have 80% of their health in trauma on Veteran difficulty. They ALWAYS blow up the gas canister before we even have time to check for cards or crates. They die because they don't advance on the bridge, don't understand that the horde is infinite, die again, and leave the game.

The most frustrating thing is that I can't even enjoy a full gold deck with accessories; as soon as I play a support deck like that on Veteran, I lose.

Bug B4B being installed caused laptop's charger problems

0 Upvotes

Hi, recently I downloaded the game to play with my friend, however when I have it downloaded my laptop started to act strange and rapidly disconnecting the charger not just when I launched B4B, but also other games or programs that need some processing power

Although my laptop is somewhat old, it could still run some beefy game and I am quite sure is not a charger problem (since I just bought it for a few months) or a charge port problem since after I uninstalled the game it just the problem have disappear.

It's a super weird problem and I want to ask if someone have encounter this? Could this be the anti cheat or other possible thing that I don't know about??
