    This is most definitely the hardest achievement or challenge I've done on this channel thus far. Left 4 Dead 2 Expert Realism is no joke... well, unless the joke's on me. Come watch as I lose my mind trying to go for an achievement that I already got 10 years ago in the most painful way I could possibly do it

    Since someone's probably curious, the Tank not instadowning you with cars in the Parish finale is intended. Due to being a really tight corridor that's overloaded with cars, Valve kindly set cars on both all difficulties and in versus to only do flat damage if a Tank punts them into you (which isn't exactly hard).

    • @JAiZYouTube
      @JAiZYouTube Před rokem +197

      Specifically, they only deal 24 damage if your health is above 50 (or 40? Can't quite remember). If your HP is below the threshold, they incap instantly.
      This is hardcoded for all gauntlet finales, so the same applies to custom maps.

      Each survivor bot has a set preference for certain classes of Tier 2 weapons and will drop any other weapon for them if it isn’t in that category, so Coach and Francis (or Louis on Xbox) are the only natural shotgunners in the crews.
      Along with them, Bill/Nick and Louis/Rochelle (Zoey on Xbox) always take ARs when given the chance, and Zoey/Ellis (Francis on Xbox) always take scoped rifles.

      I can relate to this, I already finished all the other campaign on expert except Dark Carnival, the most hardest map for me is the 4th one, the amount of zombies you have to kill to get to the safe room is just so annoying. The 5th map is also hard because of the amount of SI and commons spawning during the crescendo

      Yea the ticket booth part (Barns) can either be the hardest level or the easiest depending if you have a bile or not. As someone who plays realism expert exclusively and usually with mostly AI teammates, I find the second level of Hard Rain to be the hardest overall level in L4D history IMO

    You are an embodiment of understanding what you can and cannot control. The only things you can 100% control are your effort and attitude. Everything else is gone with the wind. Every time you died, you didn't see it as a failure, but as a step towards success. You left everything on the table every time you played, so there was nothing to truly be upset about when a game mechanic out of your control contributed to your death. That's the kind of mentality that makes you such a great gamer.

    The Parish is a bit more manageable than other campaigns because the finale doesn't pin you down in one place waiting for extraction, if you get one reliable human teammate with voice chat it's more of a matter of perseverance and good RNG.

    Dunno if you’ll see this but ever since Steam implemented Steam Input into all of their games, they’ve changed the default controller input from the original XInput/Xbox 360 controller style to a disgusting abomination that was designed for the original Steam Controller.
    However you can still enable the older XInput mode in L4D2 by going to Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> “Enable Controller” which will switch controller settings back to what it was on Xbox 360. Even for Steam Deck this way is much better IMO, as you can still use K&M inputs to enable Gyro Aiming or Touchpad aiming while keeping the old Gamepad controls

    I play a lot of realism expert and I can say that with good strategy and good reflexes it isn't so bad, just keep moving! The slower you go, the harder it will be. If you gather a horde and leave them behind the survivor group the maps become a whole lot easier and gives things like car alarms or random hordes a great use.

    but its really funny to just think that all the zombies keep wanting to go for him instead (like in the previous chapter)

    David: A young teenage boy, he is 17 years old, black, he is like 6 feet tall, he has a white shirt with a red line across it, like from his upper right chest down to his left hip, and above that line would be the King, from like cards with red dimonds around him, and below that same red line would be the Queen, from cards with black spades around her, and he has a black jacket, and blue jeans, and red, white, and black shoes, and he has a pointy hair style, like what looks like dreadlocks, but short and they only stick up in every direction, he is good at focusing and dealing with people, and he listens and is willing to listen, he can be hard-headed at times, but he gets serious at times when it calls for it, and he is there for his team
    Kaliea: A young teenage girl, she is 16 years old, black, she is 5 foot 7, she has a purple short sleeve shirt with golden glittery things around her chest area, and she as a light black short sleeve cover, like a jacket, but it has no zipper, and it looks like it is netted, with like spacing and stuff like that, and she wears skinny dark blue jeans, and high heel boots, and she has short brown hair down to her shoulders, and she has eye liner, and other sorts of makeup, and lipstick, and she is well mannered, and she tries to keep it together although she is scared, but she functions better with her team, and she is a team player, and she sticks with and is there for her team.
    (David and Kaliea are a couple, and they are good people, like David worked at movie theater, and he had part time jobs before that, and he is alright in school, and he was a former boyscout and camper, so he can opperate in some things, like the woods and things like that, and Kaliea is very good in school, she gets mainly straight A's most of the time, and was pursuing a legal career, and she used to babysit people and her younger brothers and sister, so she is good with dealing with people, and under stress)
    Abriann: He is a young teenage boy, he is 17 years old, black, he is 6 foot 1, and he wears a red short sleeve shirt with white lines up and down and a small blue shield on the upper right chestal area, but he also has that short sleeve shirt over a long sleeve white shirt, and he wears jeans, and white shoes with red trims, and he is knowledgeable and understanding, and he comes up with some ideas to help the team, and he is there for his team.
    Dainnia: She is a teenage girl, she is 17 years old, black, she is 5 foot 7, she always tries to look on the bright side of things, and she tries to keep the team together, and she keeps with her team, and she is there for her team, and she can becomes strong willed, confident, and serious when push comes to shove, she wears a green lepord pattern short sleeve shirt, with tight light purple pants, and short high heel boots with like fur on the ankle part, and she has eye liner and other makeup, and purple lipstick, and she has long black hair, and she has golden water droplet earrings.
    (Abriann and Dainnia are a couple and they are good people, Abriann is a good student, he gets mostly B's, he does not have any job, but he is knowledgeable about things like cars, because he always liked cars, and he used to help at his uncle's mechanic shop, and he also used to help his dad with the car, so he is knowledgeable about manual labor, and he used to take care of his little brother so he can deal with people and comfort them to an extent, and Diannia is a good student, with A's and B's and she is knowledgeable on many things like science and math, and she has knowledge about some other languages, history, locations, laws, and other useful things)
    The go through the states, from Texas up, going through the middle of the United States, and then around to like New York, and other states like that, and they are a young, but strong and knowledgeable team who can overcome anything together.
    Left 4 Dead 3 would be from 2012 to 2011
    Left 4 Dead 4 would be 2015 to 2016
    Left 4 Dead 5 would be in modern day

With that said, doing an Expert Realism run was still a serious challenge and to make it through unscathed was tough. It wasn't unusual for stuff to go left real fast and be humbled real quick. Hats off for doing this with bots, a true masochist. L4D bots are still fairly decent but realism is another beast. Appreciate the content!
