I think y'all took naqib too literally or something. He's not saying they're deaf to gunshots. You can hear something like a pencil dropping near you, but you're not going to hear it from the other side of a building. Just as the infected will of course hear gunshots going off like 30 feet from them, but they aren't going to attract a horde from a completely different area

Though their main goal is to get to New Orleans, they still consider going to any evac center they come across such as the Whispering Oaks and they still thought there are still more survivors or uninfected out there, which does makes sense in this campaign. They then start to lose hope when they see what's left in the village in Swamp Fever though, it it went worse as they saw evidences of the killing spree in New Orleans. I like how the devs made ups and downs of hope amongst these survivors.

During the ending sequence, when the rescue vehicle got there, I got downed by a tank, so he left to go save me, putting himself in danger. When I went to the vehicle, he stayed behind and said "go without me" before promptly being hit into the inside of the vehicle by the tank, saving him. Still one of my favorite gaming moments

The Last Stand is supposed to be a continued version of Death Toll where they decide to take a different path which leads them into Riverside Park. You could play No Mercy, Crash Course, and then some of Death Toll, and then skip to Last Stand to have it be a alternative ending as it was supposed to be a alternative ending to how the survivors ended their fight with the hordes and found a permanent home of safety, which you can see a island out in the distance on the finale at the lighthouse which is probably where the boat takes them once the survivors escape, which most likely means that the survivors just skipped Bill dying in The Sacrifice.

You can actually see the truck they used to get to TLS in Death Toll. At the end walk to the boathouse, in one of the pathways is a wooden fence with the truck at the other side. (Edit: Bill still dies even in the TLS route, the boat used in the finale has the same design as the DT boat, also the scenery is almost the same with DT (a burning city in the background), meaning that after TLS they still go to Dead Air)

And any turned infected can possibly change into one of 8 very dangerous special infected that could easily take down an entire town of non-carriers in seconds. They will not let a single person in since anyone who comes in is a risk of infecting their entire population. The safest thing for non-carriers to do against INFECTION is kill any trespassers that come near their safe haven as anyone who CAN survive outside their safe zone is most likely a carrier, an infected person who won't turn but will turn others just by breathing on them.

The south is a good location for these lunatics who lose it in the midst of an apocalypse against a virus that there is little hope against. Especially knowing that people are starting to lose their minds as the weeks increase in the infection evidence by the "scoreboard" found in the third level of The Parish. The swamps are a good place to actually hide and set up camp since it's out of the way completely from most civilization, their only downfall most likely being the crashed airliner that brought who knows how many infected into the swamps through the noise, a few stragglers that wander by is no problem, but suddenly swaths of hordes of infected with specials close behind is a death sentence.

I love Hard Rain for the fact that it is one of the few times in media where fighting in a middle of a hurricane is portrayed. Flooding, near to zero visibility, the loud sound of heavy rain, and the random thunder-initiated crescendo events, in my opinion, really enhances the feeling of trying to battle it out against the odds. Plus trying to navigate through flooded streets is one of the rarest things you can experience in all video games, so Hard Rain pretty much gives us this unique experience of trying to find ways and paths around the water using the existing environment.

I have an unforgettable moment in The Last Stand in which Francis and I (Bill) were the last two survivors. When we reach the boat, Francis gets grabbed by a smoker and torn asunder by a massive horde and a charger. I was about to step off the boat to save him, but he got incapped and I was whisked away on the boat, leaving Bill as the last survivor. #LongLiveBill

The rope around the bigger body parts is wrapped much more thoroughly compared to how it is on the smaller ones. And if it was done before the mutation the tiny arm would've gotten free due to atrophying from it original size. Also I don't think you'd hang your friend by the neck if you were hoping he'll survive.

The fall damage sound plays in the parish because there's a short discrepancy between when the sound plays vs when you actually take damage, the damage sound triggers just a bit earlier than the damage itself, so you can fall the perfect height to play the sound without taking damage, which the parish sewer just so happens to be.

One detail you missed on the last stand is that its an alternate route from the last part of death toll, if you go on the last level of death toll and look right just before getting to lakeside you will see the entrance to the last stand campagin. Since its based off on the survival mode that "what if the survivors made a wrong turn and started the light house only to find out no rescue will come to save them so they make their last stand" but in the campaign's case the boat saved them. So the story isnt really lacking. and yes dark carnival is great, except that level 4 barns crescendo event lol

a minor retort on Dark Carnival: the survivors head to the amusement park due to the fact that they saw lights over there. And Rochelle comments that if there is an evac or safe heaven, it will be where the electricity is. so the survivors went there in the hopes of an evac center. Sadly the center was overrun very recently, so the only one left standing was an infected helicopter pilot... But the point about the electricity being an potential safe heaven can be heard as early as chapter 1 if not 2.

blood harvest is the most underrated campaign ever the atmosphere feels good, the environment is very unique, and a fresh start from the usual cityscape, and it's probably the most important campaign for the original survivors, just falling behind the sacrifice and there's a clear path that you must follow when playing the campaign: the train tracks, each time you see the train tracks you know that you're on the right path and you're getting ever so closer to your goal oh, and there's actually dialogue for where the survivors are going in crash course, if you play as a survivor and stare at the bridge behind you, there's a good chance they'll say how their goal is to get on the bridge and make their way to an evac zone, and a poster in the safe room shows how riverside is the only evac zone not overrun

No mercy takes place in China 😂 In all seriousness it's being renovated as you can tell walls aren't breakable only X wooden metal pipes are. The area itself was probably rennovated to make a quick evac area or for research as you can find a few clues from posters. Also on the rooftop you find also construction being done and the holdout area has guns ammo and military meaning it probably was being renovated then the infection happened and they tried to make it into a makeshift evac center. Though if that were the case valve could've added a few more details like sand bags dead army and army trucks and cars around the bottom as well as some dead military on the construction floor. Most of the areas you see have a reason. Dead center rooftops have the conference room on the right has CEDA charts graphs photos of boomers and a map of infected states Swamp fever has none of it because the village has a sign that says no CEDA or military allowed meaning swamp folk weren't having it Death toll death air etc all have military vehicles scattered about. P much seems like No mercy was ground zero for the infection which makes sense if you think about it.

My thoughts on The Sacrifice tank are different. The train door is shut and locked, within the car is the tank itself and multiple dead US Army personnel. This was most likely a soldier who turned, or a soldier experimented on that the other soldiers in the train car had to keep restrained until they arrive to the outpost that the L4D1 survivors recently left in the comics (since that base had scientists and that’s the direction the military train was headed), or they were all just in the train waiting to be transported and a soldier became the tank and killed his teammates in the car.

When I first played LTS, I was surprised you had to look for cans half-way through the finale. It was a pleasant surprise that the finale was look-for-cans, hold-out, and restart generators all in one. Also I always thought it was called the Passing because of Bill passing.

Right after you exit the starting safehouse, there's a few tents/stands that seperate the way ahead in two paths : a faster one on the right, and a longer one on the left. The faster one (on the right) can sometimes be blocked by a fence.

​@@drucy.That's the director. The game senses if you are doing to good or not good enough. You see this on VS (if stuck up players stick around lol) when your team is losing significantly the fence will be opened. If you're winning it'll be closed giving the enemy team an edge. On normal campaign if you make it through fast enough you start seeing areas blocked off and fewer items. You notice this more whenever you get better at the game. Do 1st stage fast af then 2nd spend time "shopping" or searching for items. Repeat a stage by dying and you'll also start seeing a lot of items appear.

Depends I always have at least 2 people camp the wooden pillars in the stands because: 1. Vantage point seen by the sniper rifles nearby 2. Tank lookout 3. Prevents special infected from spawning ontop of the stage Then usually 1 person on stage and 1 middle of the 2 towers to run towards anyone who gets grabbed or pulled. Stage is underrated though since pyrotechnics button can form a fire wall for protection. The side pillars probably most underrated of all since you gain the high ground and infected climb giving you time to shoot them reload or make an escape incase a tank spawns.

Hey Dom, everybody here! And today we are going to show appreciation for you for making such high quality videos. Let’s begin. Seriously I can’t stress it enough these videos are really well put together. You clearly put a LOT of work and passion into these and, I think I can speak for everybody, we note that and appreciate it. I find all the gimmicks and little jokes in your videos wonderful. I haven’t ever even played the series, but still I watched through the whole damn video. That says something about the quality of work here. I had to pause at one point since i had to ride a bike home, and when i got there i was eager to resume the video. I’m not kidding. I was a having a bit of a shitty day and this video definitely brightened it up significantly. All in all, even though it is completely insane you put this much work into something and then give it out for free, it is insanity that we greatly value and that has a positive impact on at least the person writing this. Just felt like saying thank you.

I’d say it’s logical to go to an amusement park in an late stage apocalypse. If people are evacuating in that area they 100% would use the most recognizable thing in the area (same with mercy hospital and the liberty mall) so as many people as possible could get saved. Plus they saw the evacuation maps in the hotel so it’s a long shot but maybe one of them just remembers it’s marked on the map and hopes it’s active

this is what everyone says, but that's not the case not even in L4D1. My guess is that because you can hear crows during the level, some of their sounds coincide with the crescendo event happening. But the truth is there is no logical explanation for it. In L4D1 that part wasn't even a crescendo. Valve added one when they ported it to L4D2 because the level was too easy and short otherwise, they just forgot to make it logical.
