Don't worry, I know you may have seen a lot of zombie novels, and you know how these things started, but you didn't fall into a coma and missed the first three zombie army games.
One or two are the independent Nazi Zombie DLC packs for the 2013 Sniper Elite V2, while the second one was bundled with current hardware as part of the reinstalled "Zombie Army Trilogy" a few years later.
With a four-player cooperative game, a tough, replayable battle, a large number of different types of zombies, and a big fat "4" in the name, it's easy to enjoy the favorite and long-sleeping Left of Valve fans in "Zombie Legion 4" Compare between 4 franchises.
After thoroughly testing the water with smaller projects, Rebellion seems to be working on this extended and fully functional distro, redouble its efforts and make Valve unwanted games.
The rise of the death war
After kicking the rigid Hitler into the abyss of hell at the end of the Trilogy, the Allied Resistance began to reverse the tide and resist the remaining dead. But now, as new and more deadly enemy resurrected gangs begin to rag throughout Europe, a new team of fighters of varying capabilities cracks the code and defeats Hitler's tribe again.
The synthesizer soundtrack of the Zombie Army Trilogy is full of nostalgia, but the battle of Zombie Army 4 draws more on the retro B movie style, and its level is more typical of infected Europe beside the Venice Canal and the undead zoo But equally frightening is the ruined hospital and run-down bunker.
It reminds me in a good way of what Call of Duty began in the Black Ops 1 era of its zombie mode and contrasts sharply with the instant sting and the more horrifying elements.
When playing separately from your party or playing alone, the hellish screams of hidden enemies, coupled with their aggressive numbers and dazzling, unnatural glowing eye design, make these zombies difficult to deal with. Instead of cutting away the helpless flesh.
Accompanied by the naunting of the Nazi soldiers, as well as towering miniature guns and heavy weights, suicide bomber explosions, crawling crawler fighters and violent nightmares, they seem to line up to you. Not to mention the mysterious commanders who use magic, they will be constantly resurrected, unless you can pierce them with the right shot or ten times.
The B movie was really inspired by the boss monster. In an early campaign mission, as the meat / metal abominations of the zombie tanks splashed on the hilltop, you worked hard to clear the bunker, sprayed stewed zombies at the back door, and pressed you with fire. Violent jokes followed.
Elite Sniper
Despite their powerful attack power and general durability, you are not powerless in fighting back zombies. This is still a game rooted in the Sniper Elite series, so Zombie Legion 4 has the same austerity combat and compression slow-motion kill footage you've struggled with before.
From the rift of a semi-automatic rifle to the blow of a shotgun, your weapons are powerful tools that can resist even the toughest enemies. However, they must be used precisely to make the most of them. Use fewer hammer heads, which is always the best head, but with a sniper in your hand, you can also shoot appropriately where the heart does not beat, the liver is weak, or the testicles are weak.
This tactical advantage is two-way. When you stir up a messy person with a calm mind and enough preparation time, you will feel like the worst eye of a zombie that has ever broken-every angled shot will get a stunning close-up of the skull.
However, when things get busier and your desperate shooting is confusingly immersed in rotten flesh, the effect is unexpectedly small, and it is easy to panic in the face of stubborn enemies.
There are also a variety of traps and grenades that can be deployed, and different characters have the unique ability to spin over time. These actions can increase the penetration of a shot or increase the speed of a character, which means that you can usually choose how to handle the situation.
I usually say, because even on regular difficulty, Zombie Legion 4 is not a game that can run around as you want-if you try to run out of ammunition, you will fall into the area of brutal force of death. If you play with the team, you need to work together to secure your goals and flush the side chambers and hidden corners to complement the device.
The search steps in the task I performed were very simple: search the switch to flip and power the generator, find a way to open the bunker door, and so on. However, the movement between them is always fierce, and new enemies and encounter are scattered.
With your knowledge of maps, I can definitely see the replayability in the Zombie Army 4 campaign environment, especially if you have to plan more carefully for more difficult difficulties. As you play more games, there will be some XP meta games and incremental unlocks that will be carried out gradually, but it is not clear that this will extend the afterlife of the game without extending the game cycle.
Endless nightmare
Reproducible is the tribal mode of Zombie Army 4, which combines familiar elements such as the Nazi Zombie Expansion Environment of Call of Duty and the limited wave number of Gears Tribe and Escape Mode.
You start with a pistol and buy more equipment as you battle 20 increasingly hard-working brainstormers. Like campaigns, it's hard to do your best in subsequent rounds, even under normal circumstances, but when you get into sight, you can fight through some of the more difficult difficulty modifiers.
Once you reach Magic 20, you have the option to escape the slaughter or stick to it in order to tackle the ultimate incremental challenge.
My favorite map is an underground tunnel that starts in a long section and then opens, including a water trap, claustrophobic aisle, and high walls hurriedly crawled by zombies-but there are many more open.
By adding more story-based and level-based campaign missions, I think Zombie Army 4 is very likely to be your new zombie smasher on Saturday night. You can share and pass time with some friends in the party chat, especially in the " Call of Duty gives its tribe a year of breathing. It was a solid, cooperative operation, coupled with a tough tactical steak and plenty of internal organs.
Zombie Army 4: Dead War will be available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC via the Epic Games Store on February 4, 2020.
