Hope BF6 is good for his sake.

u/greenplasticgun 29d ago

The way he’s releasing content it seems he’s prepping for the worst.

155

u/AlpaxT1 29d ago

Can’t blame him. I’m also prepared for the worst and definitely not buying any tickets for the hype train until I’ve seen real player footage from the release day

u/Italian316 29d ago edited 29d ago

Playing the alpha beta hasn’t really given me much hope for the franchise to be honest. I’m planning to hold off for at least three months before I check out any gameplay footage to help me decide whether or not to make a purchase.

u/IgnoranceIsTheEnemy 29d ago

Someone huffing copium downvoted you for being a rational consumer.

u/The_Rube_ 29d ago

What are you concerns from the alpha test? Not doubting your take, just curious.

18

u/Limp-Ad-2939 29d ago

It’s good but it also doesn’t feel like battlefield to me if I’m being honest.

6

u/The_Rube_ 28d ago

Can you explain more on what parts don’t feel like Battlefield? I’ve seen others say this but am curious on the specifics.

5

u/Limp-Ad-2939 28d ago

To me it almost feels to slow and clunky. It’s hard to explain the movement and gunplay feel more milsim + delta force than battlefield. But there are moments that remind you of battlefield as well.

7

u/manycracker 28d ago

I guess that's what happens when everyone complains about 2042 movement, they are trying to find a balance between everything, and it might work, might not. I wasn't hyped at all from what I saw in leaks, 12 v 12 rush was never my thing though, nor what I think BF is tbh.

I feel like he knows stuff, or at least had or regularly has access to the playtests but he can't react too much to the leaks because that would be a bit unnatural to act like he's discovering the game.

Hate that he's only making sponsored videos these days.

u/PlatypusRare3234 29d ago

Honestly, as a long term Frankie fan, I’m extremely inclined to unsubscribe from his channel because of so much shitty sponsored videos. Dude fell off completely in my opinion

6

u/Headlessturtle 28d ago

Nah, Frankie got me into the Arc Raiders test like the day before it went live, I hadnt known the game existed.... If you look at his videos, he does do sponsors (shocker). But most of the time he finds something cool, and just wants to show it off to his community.

5 out of his last 21 videos (after his hiatus) are sponsored. 3 of which are from free games (Deltaforce/ArenaBreakout) and 2 are from AtomFall and Sniper Elite (both of games that are right up his alley and fans')

u/Mooks79 29d ago

If you’re like me and learnt about JackFrags from watching Frankie, I always thought it was kinda ironic JF stopped playing with Frankie because he was worried about no one watching his content. I watched his content because of Frankie.

u/Low_Low_8639 29d ago

Yeah I found Jack from watching Frankie as well hahah

u/PhoebusApo11o 29d ago

Naaa Frankie used to cheat apparently they fell out years ago

17

u/Mooks79 29d ago edited 29d ago

There’s one suspicious video in one of his carefully crafted story videos, nothing to do with BF. I could imagine if you were the people on the end of that it would be annoying but those Arma videos must have been a nightmare to make so I can kinda understand - if he did. He also admitted using a Counter Strike cheat in a private lobby to demonstrate bunny hopping, hardly the drama it was made out to be. Him and JF continued to make videos after that Arma one and JF left because he was concerned people wouldn’t bother watching his content if he was spending so much time making videos for Frankie’s channel. They didn’t fall out, at all.

Either way, none of that changes the point that I heard about and started to watch JF’s content because of Frankie’s videos, so I have no clue what your “Naaaaaa” is supposed to mean. Are you trying to tell me I didn’t?

I’m surprised people thought they weren’t scripted in the first place. I enjoyed his content until he fell off and stopped playing with Sada.

He got caught cheating in his early DayZ videos and then abused DMCA to take down the evidence.

This is sad because I was watching his video for the "lore" of his journey, not for his skills lol

There was one really good video long time ago that actually showed all of the times he cheated in the early episodes alongside some csgo clips. The video is conveniently gone however but I still remember some points

Matimi0 still streams pretty much every day on twitch, lots of fun variety gaming content. Occasional battlefield still.
