Sorry, but early access does mean it's not finished. That was a silly statement.

You not gonna blow up this way Good fps? Yes Best Fps of the decades? What you smoking bro...

Never heard of it but I think I’ll pick it up after watching this. It’s retro but modern. Female protagonist too which might not matter to some but definitely appreciated. Only weird thing is the name but I’m sure that’s the worst of the game.

Sel-ACKo

What a great video!

thoughts on trepang?

seeing title thinking so you dont play many fps games the games alright not more

Agree, best FPS, FAR BETTER than "Phantom failure"

great video Deg!!!! you clearly put a lot of time and effort into it 💙

Great video, you deserve more views

R6: Vegas 1 & 2 got similar AI.

There's a layer of of level design that was stripped away in the dark days of the stop n' pop modern military shooter. These games simply pipeline you from one bombastic setpiece to the next, and none of them have any meaning to the player outside of the basic spacial considerations of shooting dudes in the face. You don't actually parse and navigate these spaces, and to be fair there's not really any reason to. Hallway A is the same as hallway B, just a different inert backdrop to dude shoot from. With an old shooter like Doom or DN3D, the entire level takes on significance. You aren't just worried about the space containing the latest fight, the rest of the level has meaning to you because you parsed it and figured out the structure in your mind. This is partially due to the fact there isn't an idiot arrow on your screen telling you exactly where you need to go, but mainly because the level has stuff in it that is necessary for your survival (ammo, medical supplies, powerups, etc) and progress (keys, switches, doors, wall cracks, etc). In CoD you plant the bombs because the game tells you this is what you need to do to progress. In Doom you grab the red key because you physically need to pass through the red door. It's actually way more "diegetic" A good video, even if I think you give us too much credit.

Omg I already have to thank you. I am pretty new to FPS genre, and as of late indie-retro FPS really interest me. I started playing older games, like original Doom, Quake, Blood and others butt found myself running short on time. There's just soooo much good stuff and I can't wait to complete all of it. Thank you for your work

This game is great, i'm addicted. And thats coming from a guy that usually don't even play shooters.

Easily my most anticipated video in recent memory 🗣️🗣️

Idk man. I think you should make a video talking about the exceptions you mentioned concerning BGs. As far as I’m concerned my Templar does extremely well in BGs with pariah and almalexias. Tanky as hell as can spam 7-8k non crit breaths on top of everything else.

My small scale sorc has over 60k mag and those heals are disgusting. The cool thing is that I’m full damage and have nothing into healing. Can 1 tap players and 1 tap heal them up significantly.

I love my 50k+ health, 2500+ mag recovery, warden healer. It's a beast of a build with huge burst healing and lots of healing of time. I regularly hit over 3m+ healing in BGs.

What personality is that the characters with the white and black armor

ball groups should be banned in pvp it kills the pvp and the players alone are at a disadvantage Now we only see ball groups sometimes I see 5 or 6 at the same time thank you for your clip

I mostly do 4 man groups. You should be tanky and it’s not even an option. You can provide utility just as well if not better. There’s plenty of heavy sets that can be worn that aren’t selfish. You can easily make up for your lack of heals though cross healing and stacking power buffs with team.

Whats the addon that shows total healing and damage on the right? can BattleMetrics do that?

Let me start off by saying that many of the points you make, i agree with, but only in preferable scenarios are they consistantly true, which many players who dont run in comp groups or ball groups will be mislead by. This is because many of the times the points you make work specifically when you have a coordinated/communicating team whos running team supporting builds with more than one healer (or everyone damage dealers running cross heals) all while staying on crown, while this is completely possible, it is much less common outside of comp groups / ball groups / natural leader type crowns which i feel was not stressed enough and would be the deciding factor between this video helping vs hurting newer/inexperienced players. Now ill go over some more specific examples which, although ive played since launch of both pc and console, the bulk of my experience is in Cyrodiil as it better provides what i want from ESO PvP versus battlegrounds. -"You cant heal when youre dead" *This is an important concept because at its base, its true. You will not always be in the perfect scenarios, with your entire team reacting perfectly. The idea that you cant build a tanky healer with strong HoTs and burst heals is just wrong. Unfortunately im not the absolute best healer as i prefer more niche builds maximizing fun vs efficiency so i dont have a current patch build to share but there are many examples in the community you can find. Ive known many people over the last decade who maintained huge heals AND remarkable solo survivability. This isnt so they can "be parcing dumbies", its so theyre a pillar of support that can focus on keeping the team alive vs having to be coddled when push REALLY comes to shove. When people die, you lose more and more crossheals, snowballing. When people die around a tanky healer, their viability doesnt drop, its just harder to keep people alive like it is for any other healer. *Crossheals are a great "layer of defense" of but to replace the basics with a buffer, thats unreliable at best and misleading to newer players at worst. I think its important you mention that these concepts only work in comp groups and ball groups which many groups dont fall into either catagory. Many players just like to make builds and play with a group in cyrodiil. This distinction would have been incredibly useful to uninformed players thinking they can run a build that relies on coordinated team play in a "green bars LFG" gathered Cyrodiil group. -Prioritizing Utility/Sustain sets and hoping crossheals will pick up the slack. This works in perfect conditions like being in a group that coordinates movement/gear selection/abilities/and stays on crown. *This doesnt work when youre being bursted down by a competent DPS burst type builds that can drop people with low resitances, sure you heal a lot but that doesnt help much when youre only getting hit over a few seconds. This doesnt work when you ARE forcused too hard by nightblades / snipers. This doesnt help when you DO take damage and fall into execute range. This doesnt help when youre pulled with a DK chain away from your group and get bursted down becauze you NEED your group to stay alive with their crossheals. Mitigation is always active from running full heavy armor. -"Healers Dont Get Focused" *Your test was to compare your damage taken vs the non healers in your group over different engagements? Obviosuly thr people that literally make up the fight its self will take more damage total vs the people not directly making up the fight its self. That doest make sense. *Theres a difference between being focused the entire fight vs being temporarily focused to kill you and stop you from healing (which your test wouldnt reflect). This wouldnt even be difficult to achieve vs a competent group whose also coordinating since youre encouraging crossheals over high mitigation. Your crossheals wont be enough to completely nagate all the burst damage if the team decides they feel like killing you. (I join pug groups somewhat often as i like talking to different people and the concept of calling out to focus healers isnt uncommon). An exception would be when fighting ball groups as they prioritize movement / self sustain / ulti dumps and fight/play differently to many other types of groups. -"When i run with a group, i always insist everyone runs Echoing Vigor". Putting aside how annoying this is in regular groups since it seems like much of the information you share is meant for comp groups with explicitly stating that but insteading sharing this as how you think healer should build for the "majority of content" even though comp groups do not make up the bulk of groups as in my notable experience players do not autimatically assume they need to run a certain set/slot a certain ability/alter their overall build to be allowed into a group unless theyre told its a comp or ball group. There are probably things i missed or forgot the point of my comment really isnt just to critisize. Its primarily so that you can see how some of your advice would be more hurtful to players who dont have that experience to understand the different types of groups/environments theyll find themselves in while grouping in Cyrodiil. Also to show the clear downsides of relying on crossheals to stay alive vs mitigation in said various envinorments. I hope this this helps anyone new and provides another point of view to the video creator. I apologize for the 10 years used to read this essay. <3

Thanks for the video Deg

Elfs bane still work very well against groups

Most case, a normal person get tired of being zergged down by a bunch of ppl that can’t kill them other way, and create a group to shit on zergling’s head.

You say bgs take skills, because you had to keep your buffs up? As 1vX'er I have to keep my buffs up myself, keep pressure on my enemies, keep my heals running, watch my sustain and to have a combat awareness on maximum level to not get cornered and zerged down. As long cross-healing is completly broken, ball groups don't require much skills that slightly above average PVP'er doesn't already have.

I laught a lot when you said: "They don't care about XP and/or Tickets". It was so good joke. THEY JUST WANT XP AND TICKETS, AND MONEY, cuz they are mercenaries, you can buy a BG to flip or ruin a whole a map. If u have enough gold you can get their services.

That part of the Ichthyosaurus made me subscribe.

Cyrodiil, as it stands now, is quite clearly designed for ball groups.

Imagine grouping in a group pvp zone. If you solo pvp youre against the true spirit of the pvp zone

Dude ballg is complete trash and you guys are main reason servers are dead and lagy. That being said ZOS has no balls to nerf you and it would be really easy to nerf you. Only reason you exist is because you can stack heals. Disable heal stacks where u can have max 2 heal instances of ANY kind and pvp would be fixed in a night.

Wow - thanks for saying all this! 100% agree... nice editing also; btw I like the the convergent evolution comparison 😀

so a ballgrp is just a bigger grp - a raid - a warband so to speak yes? took eso players long enough to figure out that when they loose they could just stack bigger grps onto eachother and u know win more vs solo/duos/smaller grps - and lemme tell u this - in every other realm vs realm or pvp game where this mechanic works - it was not in the best interest for all players enjoying pvp content - it funneled more newbs into mass pvp and worse personal skill and everyone who knows how to will def abuse it on way or another

The eternal battle of optimized group play and the bads that cry about it. You see it in any game where you can do group pvp. Calling a strat meta (in a derogatory way), easy, skill less and more is always, and will always be, an indicator of poor skill and close mindedness. Coordination with multiple other players takes much more skill than pressing buttons alone.

It only really sucks when each faction has two balls at a single keep and the server resets

They're mostly trash players who can't do anything in pvp without synced sets and bombs...if zos ever ends HoT stacking in cyro bgs would be nothing

The funny part about ball groups. Is that everyone just throws themselves at the machine Gun fire of the ball groups, rather than actually using strategy to take them down. The fundamental concept of a ball group is coordination and teamwork. And when you can find a way to interfere with their coordination, they can't function as a team as effectively. And it makes it so much easier to focus single targets and kill them I always tell people spam knockbacks stuns and CCs on them. Especially on their attempted ult dumps. Messes their whole flow up and eventually they slip and you can kill them off

the suggestion that there are "ballgroups" and if you're not a ballgroup you're a 'casual' player already gives away your bias. Many of us "casual" players have tried ballgroup playstyle and found it pathetic and lacking. We didn't level our players just to then roleplay as a bot train. The problem with ballgroups is that they rely on essentially performing ddos attacks on the server. All they're doing is overloading the server so that other players cannot access their abilities, even automatic passives like Slippery for example. The only players who think ballgroup is a skilled playstyle are....ballgroup players. We all know that Cyrodiil lags out easily with a large group of players in one place. Ball groups simply exploit this. Furthermore, the outcome of ballgroup play is something we "casual' players have witnessed. They all end up doing the same thing. Running around in circles for long periods of time, desperately ult-dumping solo players. It's boring for everyone involved and all it does is further degrade the Cyrodiil experience.

I'm a solo pvper, i am also a nightblade brawler. I would rather not use stealth but the current pvp climate forced me into a stealth loadout because it is literally the only solution to roving killsquads in imp city that spam echoing vigor and backbar restos on their solo loadouts. If you are spotted by one of these ballgroups it is a near instant death. No matter how good you are. The cross healing and slows are simply too much. Scribing has me even more worried. Now these groups will have skill based radial pulls that can also breach, stun, or heal teammates. Meaning they can retire dark convergence and slot even more potent bombing sets. And aren't restrained by the 21 second cooldown of DC either. Or tether heals that can be paired with the life bond. I'm afraid that ballgroups will be so powerful in gold road that keeps will be seiged by no less than 5 or 6 coordinated players stacking these skills. Spamming heals and bomb loadouts, pulling and wiping huge swaths of players with titanic cleave, vicious death and plaguebreak every time their CC immune wears off. The worst part is that only 1 player has to run this loadout for it to kill dozens of people at a time there is no counter except for a counter bomber which won't matter because the ballgroup is so small that bombs don't scale high enough to be lethal, it will literally be the only thing you see. Mark my words.

I got this in my recommendations. Don't play ESO. Wtf is a "ballgroup"?

Ball group is just cringe at this point .imagine using more than 8 ulti for a single person because they get bomb just a few minutes ago😂. Have already tryed to play with ball and honestly it s boring . After it s my opinion. Sorry but running,echoing vigor +sime other hot , waitng for ulti or pull set like dc or rush or agony for killing some ppl or zerg , it s soo easy . Even blind(or half) ppl can do it.

Highly informative video, great work brother. Love from PCNA <3

I'm late to the party as I just discovered your channel but you forgot to mention making sure to animation cancel 2 skills and 2 heavy attacks at once so the 4 things hit at the exact time on your opponents screen 🙃

ballgroups are packa of players twho like to compensate their personal and skill issues by ult dumping 4 random with 12

Probably the best video I've seen talking about the motivations for having a ballgroup instead of "hurr durr ballgroup bad because"

nooooo we're not a ballgroup we're 8 man warden with a pull!!!!!

When will ballgroups evolve into crabs?
