Man I remember watching this when it first came out, showing it to my friends I was just so hyped. The opening to this video is just amazing, I’m so grateful for frankie making such beautiful content. Battlefield 1 was a masterpiece.
eoin joyce yeah, I know, but that's not the only place he gets the music from. I assume he has someone to go around the internet finding music if he's getting it from different YT channels.
can I just say, that was probably the most entertaining video of a first person shooting game I've seen ever. it had the breathe taking shots, the funny moments, and actual like "facts and tips" in the game.
This is my favorite Battlefield 1 footage. Calm, informative and a variety of gameplay. Plus, occasional periods without commentary so we can fully enjoy the game audio! Masterfully done. I'm so tired of the manic screaming and shouting while playing. Thank you for providing a more mature perspective.
This is legit the most satisfying gameplay I've seen. This looks like you can have a fun patient game as well as a fast based action packed game. Each playstyle is effective and rewarding unlike in the past two battlefields where run and gun offensive play was overwhelmingly the strongest.
This game-play made me changed my mind a little about the game, at first I was really disappointed that they made bolt actions a recon only gun despite being what 95% of infantry men actually used in the war, and also the fact that it was so fast paced, this gameplay looks veri naice
i disagree about how to play the last two games. my playstyle is is semi agressive flanking at medium ranges. i always go positive most of the time with atleast a 2.0 kd. it really also just depends on the map
no audio spotting. no assault rifles. no op class. useable LMGs. effective anti tank gear for all classes. improved bullet speed for snipers. sounds like my kind of game!
Yeah but if you are roaming between flags and not capping them will not win the game, K/D should be removed from the game and only be personal. The play style in BF1 is fast as F*** if you are going for the flags.
Omg I felt so sad when I heard your voice lol all those years I've been watching u every single day I got home from school all sad then I watch u and omg It made me so happy. Its like what they say laughter is the best medicine. 😊 I hope you start uploading again I miss you so much!!! Best RUclipsr ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . Hope everything is well
It's cause he's a immersive role-player, usually RUclips gamers just play the game and do commentary. Frankie actually puts himself into the game and actually makes it feel like your with him on this journey if he plays Day Z or War when he plays games like Battlefield & when he's not role playing he's a amazing commentator.
Well Ik its a bit of a hard thing to understand but the comment on top of me is wrong to make some of his videos he asks the modders of a game to help him get the really good shots like in dayz, a great example is Running Scared, the beginning starts off with a tank killing pinky and him running. But still he makes great stories and he is a great youtuber
Absolutely ludicrous that only sniper classes can use bolt actions. What's the issue with giving the option to use a bolt action with other types of classes? Just seems so illogical.
+rasgul WW1 wasn't just bolts, and they did it for balance as each class gets different weapons. Assault gets smg's and shotguns, Medic gets Marksman Rifles, Support gets lmg's, and scout gets bolt action rifles. Plus, Battlefield isn't some realistic war simulator, it never was, so people need to stop complaining
Imagine in the future when games like this are able to be played on huge maps with hundreds maybe thousands of players on each team basically making it so much more realistic and amazing like a full scale trench war
In 2004, Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising had 150 player servers. Things have regressed and not progressed because game makers are catering to consoles. I suppose when console capabilities increase to such a capacity there will be those games.
ya your totally right. But why does he take forever to get a new video out? like isn't youtube his job or does he work and youtube is just something he does for fun?
The reasons why I love Frankie: 1. He owned his opponents in basically every game 2. His videos quality is superb 3. He is an awesome joker! 4. Love that accent!! 5. He is honest in the sense that if he is promoting something like the DayZ stuffs, he's going to tell you about that. Unlike certain player who happened to "stumble across" a website called CSGOLotto... 6. He is not involved with RUclips dramas. Add yours.......
Everyone seems to be a history major here. Never once when I was a kid did I hear about or see pictures of black soldiers, especially on the German side, fighting in WWI. Next people will say 3/5 soldiers in WWI were black which is absolute BS BTW. DICE just trying to make people happy even at the cost of historical accuracy.
Drakoaran I think thats the name of it.. i really do not remember at all but it does have the same type of mag that inserts from the side and goes to the other side when you shoot your gun
*We need back up now!* General: It is time....Release frankie.. But sir! General: I said release frankie!. Yes sir! Attention all soldiers Frankie is in battlefield. Code red, I repeat Frankie is on the battlefield
Benjamin Czapp Im from Sweden and I kinda agree, but dont blame sweden for it. Dice has employers all over the world and just because the main HQ is in sweden dosent mean everyone who worked on the game and decided was swedish :)
About the black German soldiers, stop being so "omg you're racist it's a game", personally I love having well done historical accuracy, and there were close to none non white soldiers in Europe. However, if we get some desert maps like in Africa or the Middle East where the war was still fought, then there isn't a problem with it.
Exactly! Like everything its about context... Most people forget about the colonial wars in Africa. In that context its perfectly fine. But half the character models in a European setting are black? I mean cmon. There were black units, notably the hellfighters and black french units (forget the name). But that was maybe a couple thousand (?) out of millions who fought on the western front. Its the typical PC diversity thing where they find a little historical evidence and totally run with it.
There's nothing racist about a white European country not having Black soldiers, if there were none in real life why do they have to be in the game? I understand America having black soldiers because we've Been diverse for a long time but i don't see why they had to make Germanys soldiers multiracial if Britain and Americas were
what I wonder, though. if authenticity is very important to you, why only focus on black people being present? there are so many anarchronisms in this game, black people should really be the least of your concerns. i mean, everyone and his uncle is shooting with smgs or lmgs here. that's a lot more out of place than a black dude on the western front. anyway, just take it as the game it is and not as an authentic recreation, because it's far away from it.
The sheer amount of anger that also sounds slightly like fear behind the battle cry of the bayonet charge always gives me goosebumps, this game is going to be awesome...
Afro-german colonial soldiers were a thing, like the Askari militia. True, they may have not been a common sight in mainland Europe, but it was a possibility. And if it bothers you that much, pretend your soldier is just blackened by all the smoke and dirt.
Were scopes like these really that sophisticated and that commonly seen circa 1912-14? Or is this a case of Modern Warfare mechanics bleeding into a 2016-produced period game?
Yes to the latter. There were scopes in use (like this: www.efdrifles.com/images/323/323r.jpg), but not to the extent they are on here. Hell, WWII usage of sniper rifles wasn't so different, they were employed in much the same way and most of the rifles used were from WWI, so think of it like that. The worst part about this game is it appears nearly everyone has a submachine gun and runs around outside the trenches like it's fucking lasertag.
Glenn A I consider myself part of the "Call of Duty crowd". I never missed scopes in my WWII games, and their presence in this video I find a little too much. They could have been more authentic without becomming slaves to realism.
Glenn A I don't really mind the arcady gameplay. I'll take fun over realism in my action shooters any day, including those set in WWI. Point is, they can be thematically and dramatically loyal to the setting/era without having to enslave themselves to just sitting in trenches and mass-storming machine-guns, etc. They should mix and jazz it up, certainly, but I still want to be able to look at the thing and be like; "yeah, this is WWI in all it's epicness and horror"... when I look at this video I'm more like; "is this WWI or II? Is that weapon/scope even invented yet? Is it this widespread on the frontlines?" It just takes me out of the game I suppose. But then, I'm a single-player campaign kinda guy.
+MR. T.M. Yeah they used them in WW1 & WW2 for planes to crash into. Basically making it harder for planes to fly low or high depending where they were placed.
I love your videos. I don't even play on the computer but I enjoy listening to you and Sada so much I just watch everything. I also love how you appreciate American war history. I get so immersed when you tell stories and have video game footage in the background. Your passion for the info makes everything that much more exciting! Thanks for the videos!
okay, so there going to be black German solders on the western front, which never happened, french and Americans had black solders. Germany only had black solders in Africa, not in the western front. so ok it's not realistic, not ideal but ok. but if I can play as a black charcter, why can't I play as a women? or and Asian? or Latino? or Transgender? or an attack helicopter?
Get ready for Fascist liberalism to take over this era. Every next game based on history will include only black and transgender like they dominated the era. I'm not joking. This world is going to hell.
I like it how when frankie is on a tank a plane tries to Kamikaze him. Also when he shot that plane down and combined with the music it gave me goosebumps. Frankie is just one of the best youtubers.
the germans used a lot of black soldiers in ww1, actually everyone involved did. America, Britain, Russia, Germany you name it. They all had quite the number of black/coloured soldiers
+iiNova He means the setting, particularly the environment with the destruction and weather effects and primitive technologies, gives the game a specific and strong 'feel'. Beyond just sight and sound, the 'feeling' of being there is what all storytellers try to achieve... Atmosphere and tone is especially important in film.
...he looks through his scope, he sees the soldier who shot his best friend... His finger is on the trigger. But suddenly a warm hand touches his shoulder... Moving him... the knife hits his heart... His rifle lays beside him but he cannot reach it... In his last few seconds alive... He thinks of his 5 year old daughter... One last time, one last moment, one last year
I started watching frankie when i started trying ark online...then i quit playing ark and watched frankies videos. Dude you are talented both as a commentator and as a player, watching you makes me actually laugh and you are skilled. Best of luck man
+minitos1 If they add it. It should take longer to set up and longer to get out of the mount. Also no one can use the ammo box that is belt feeding the LMG. OR it should be an attachment/gadget that allows you to mount and belt feed.
i know that no one fielded a fucking semiautomatic fucking rifle as the standard weapon and the first country to adopt a semi automatic rifle in such fashion was Mexico. maybe you should ask your self that question?
Its because its closed alpha an officially you are not allowed to publish any video's or content (you have to accept that licence everytime you start up BF1). Not sure if Frankie got permission to post though. But that screen makes it easy for EA to get your info. Thats why it keeps blinking around so its hard to block in video's
Frankie I remember you when you were at about 700,000 subs. And I have just now came back to you you are so much better now! Thanks for what you do and thank you on another level for always keeping me entertained. :)
imafackinjunglist I do believe it's pretty hard for an ass to be hairy but It's clear you wouldn't know because the only hairy ass you've seen is your own.
***** no dude you missed the point, i meant something being better than other thing doesnt still make it good, for example stick is better than stone but you still cant hunt with a stick
A Volney if you are charging me 40 dollars for that steak and say that i would never buy steak from you also would recommend everybody not to go to your place. your logic is flawless
TypeZero It's just an example bud. The steak is free, the point is that the steak is bad. It's not the worst but it's bad, and so even if it isn't the worst it still merits criticism. Like battlefield. It isn't the worst but it still merits criticism.
A Volney i guess you forgot you are paying for battlefield. if it was free of course its pretty good. but its not and full experience will cost 110 dollars its 4 times that in my country so excuse me if i critique it harsh
ikr, the amount of tokenism for a WW1 title is a little ridiculous. I'm just waiting for the soldier that identifies as an Apache Attack Helicopter to appear
Let's just hope the game doesn't get saturated with automatic guns. So not lore friendly, like why make WW1 shooter and make it play like a modern shooter.
Viktor Ceder watched nearly all bf1 gameplays of like 10 channels, and everything is semiautomatic or automatic, only snipers arent and you cant take scope out so there isnt any bolt action standart rifle, even in bf3 bf4 you could take the scope out
TypeZero You can take of scopes lol, for saying you've watched that much, it doens't seem like you actually listened... There are pre-sets, and normal customization
Think it would be cool if they take away all the icons on the enemies maybe even take away the minimap or all the objective icons circling around the edges of the screen. Think it would be more immersive .
Yeah I've seen that. :) But still would like to see a game mode where the HUD and the "catching" sound when you get a kill, as that tell you that the guy you just shoot is dead.
One thing i really like about this game is that we've had so many world war games it's unreal..Dice have been brave enough to take a world war game and totally own it!..the game looks truly stunning and I really think alot of people will be pleased..fair play Dice you look like you've learned and done a cracking job! (proof will be in the pudding though but by going by various RUclipsrs and from what we've seen this is rightly highly anticipated)
The units of black soldiers who fought for the german side in Europe (almost all afro-german soldiers fought on the African front) were very small, and they were used as support troops as in, cooking food, running supply lines etc. They did not do the fighting and the dying.
If your looking for immersion then you should also complain about the automatic and semi-automatic guns and the tanks that move way to fast for the time period, if a solider being black is your main concern (which will most likely be a character design option in game) that's wrong
Man I remember watching this when it first came out, showing it to my friends I was just so hyped. The opening to this video is just amazing, I’m so grateful for frankie making such beautiful content. Battlefield 1 was a masterpiece.
SAME! i loved BF1
Wow! Glad to listen my music here! Thanks!
Frankie where do you find your music? I'm inspired by your videos but finding this kind of epic/motivational music is difficult.
thanks for giving us this spectacular video Frankie!
your welcome mattia
+KiwiGaming check out the channel that you replied to
eoin joyce yeah, I know, but that's not the only place he gets the music from. I assume he has someone to go around the internet finding music if he's getting it from different YT channels.
It’s 2019 and I’m going back and watching old Frankie videos because I’m really starting to miss them 😢
HE UPDATED!
Im here in 2020
2021, frankies offical twitter bio "Back 3 days before BF2042 Release Date!" (November 16, 2021)
Got some good news for ya man...
He’s back :)
can I just say, that was probably the most entertaining video of a first person shooting game I've seen ever. it had the breathe taking shots, the funny moments, and actual like "facts and tips" in the game.
This is my favorite Battlefield 1 footage. Calm, informative and a variety of gameplay. Plus, occasional periods without commentary so we can fully enjoy the game audio! Masterfully done.
I'm so tired of the manic screaming and shouting while playing. Thank you for providing a more mature perspective.
YEAH BUT THEIRS BLACK GERMANS AND THAT MATTERS FOR REASONS RELATING TO THIS VIDEO EVEN THOUGH IT DOES NOT ADDRESS IT IN ANY WAY.
*sarcasm
Welcome to Frankies channel, welcome to the family

Amen dude, I really cannot wait till this comes out. I don't really play battlefield, haven't for a long time. But this I'm looking forward too.
+isaac fayfer (pencilp5) accurate representation of the comments lol
"mature perspective" 1:16

True. It's also due to the fact the Frankie is a beast when it comes to FPS games. :P

This is just the best gameplay and commentary footage I have ever seen for BF1, I
Also agreed!
That's what you get from Frankie! Beautiful indeed.
Approved
I agree 100%
I totally concur, was thinking it whilst watching then saw this comment. Pure cream Frankie, pure cream.
Omg I felt so sad when I heard your voice lol all those years I've been watching u every single day I got home from school all sad then I watch u and omg It made me so happy. Its like what they say laughter is the best medicine. 😊 I hope you start uploading again I miss you so much!!! Best RUclipsr ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . Hope everything is well
why does frankie know how to make any game look amazing
It's cause he's a immersive role-player, usually RUclips gamers just play the game and do commentary. Frankie actually puts himself into the game and actually makes it feel like your with him on this journey if he plays Day Z or War when he plays games like Battlefield & when he's not role playing he's a amazing commentator.
Well Ik its a bit of a hard thing to understand but the comment on top of me is wrong to make some of his videos he asks the modders of a game to help him get the really good shots like in dayz, a great example is Running Scared, the beginning starts off with a tank killing pinky and him running. But still he makes great stories and he is a great youtuber
hes also really good at editing :3 how he makes such good vids hes said in a past vid it takes days to get the footage he uses for just one video
When it said Newb I was thinking Neebs
yes!
+Crimson Phantom amen
Prooooooooooooomoted! Neebs and the dude that yells, its OPEEEEEEEE need to team up.
that would be Azzy the mlg pro! fuckin love that guy
+M Kinny37 he plays cs:go now
Absolutely ludicrous that only sniper classes can use bolt actions. What's the issue with giving the option to use a bolt action with other types of classes? Just seems so illogical.
+Th3Ult1mat3Pr0 yes. It was WW1
They did.
all the guns in BF1 existed, but most were only experimental....look at the video forgottenweapons did on it.
+rasgul WW1 wasn't just bolts, and they did it for balance as each class gets different weapons. Assault gets smg's and shotguns, Medic gets Marksman Rifles, Support gets lmg's, and scout gets bolt action rifles. Plus, Battlefield isn't some realistic war simulator, it never was, so people need to stop complaining
If everyone had a bolt action, what would be the purpose of the sniper class?
Imagine in the future when games like this are able to be played on huge maps with hundreds maybe thousands of players on each team basically making it so much more realistic and amazing like a full scale trench war
Barbaric Barbarian There's already Planetside 2.
Barbaric Barbarian closes thing to that is the mount & blade dlc called napoleonic wars 100 v 100 max, but it's in the napoleonic wars obviously.
Barbaric Barbarian ha
Mavericks is coming out soon.
In 2004, Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising had 150 player servers. Things have regressed and not progressed because game makers are catering to consoles. I suppose when console capabilities increase to such a capacity there will be those games.
When he says see you in the next chapter he means see you in 4 months :D
ya your totally right. But why does he take forever to get a new video out? like isn't youtube his job or does he work and youtube is just something he does for fun?
He has a real life job and youtube is a side thing for him I believe
+Rocketswarm82 he is a lawyer I know that. Was just joking haha
lol
+JasPlays he is a solicitor
Bringing back war stories would be appropriate as there where so many during WW1
Yessss
i agree
would love that m8
+Frank M Frankie was not the first person to do history lessons
He could do one on Lawrence of Arabia. Which would be awesome.
Is it me or every game frankie plays turns into gold. Like his dayz vids or arm 3, they look so fun when he plays it.
yh IKR
+Duck Man did you just reply to yourself?😂
yh to EH7
I think Frankie just knows how to make us interested and his sense of music and action is on Hollywood levels.
Arm 3?
i was in game with M-Newb today he had no idea there was a video of him
Will anyone else use the Lee Enfield without a sight, Just for realism? If you get what I mean.
I think there's only one bolt action rifle in the Alpha that doesn't have Iron sights. You'll have to wait for either the beta or full game
I definitely would I wouldn't use any semi autos
1895, and Lee Enfield both have an Iron sight variants.
my fav. sniper in bf3 was spass 12 - ironsight - slug .. if you get what i mean ;-)
yes
ur videos are so satisfying to watch man
best bf1 videos I've seen so far
Beautiful game, but the amount of automatic guns makes me think they should have stuck to WW2.
Yeah.
it's about the same really
in wwi they still had a fair amount of automatic firearms
Its an acrade game... theyr not gonna make poeples play with only semi auto or bolt action rifle..
+inspectergadget25 indeed
The reasons why I love Frankie:
1. He owned his opponents in basically every game
2. His videos quality is superb
3. He is an awesome joker!
4. Love that accent!!
5. He is honest in the sense that if he is promoting something like the DayZ stuffs, he's going to tell you about that. Unlike certain player who happened to "stumble across" a website called CSGOLotto...

no air needed. ftw
the bastardgun right?
Drakoaran I think thats the name of it.. i really do not remember at all but it does have the same type of mag that inserts from the side and goes to the other side when you shoot your gun
+Drakoran Yes, the only gun with the mag that inserts from the side in Metro...
Yeah its the bastardgun.
your editing skills are so good, every other bf1 vid i have seen looks washed out and gray
I dont think he applied Color Correction to this video
*colour
Charlie Fillingham not everyone is a communist.
its Color in Freedomland

Frankie has the best weapon accuracy on youtube
On RUclips? Never knew RUclips was a shooter
Lol chill.
He's my favorite RUclipsr but there's definitely more accurate players. Ravic for example.
Bold statement
Shroud? 🤣
Am I the only person who checks this channel daily to see new videos?
i just subscribe instead
... dude thats why there is a subscribe button... so you know when channels upload new videos...
sometimes is doesn't show me that their is new content :/
I think you're doing it wrong, lol
+Carlos Ramirez see that bell next to the sub button click it and you'll get a notification for every vid
7:15 "Ive decided to head to the bell tower since ze Germans are pushing forward" Frankie, you were on the German team when you said that...
lol true. Nice to see that you commented Frankie! i love the vids! and Saving Private Ryan :D
What if he meant his team was pushing forward? Not trying to say you're wrong just a thought! :)
No he was an american because he was using an M1911
+James Krokowski Have you ever played a Battlefield game? You can equip foreign weapons
he was wearing a German uniform
I like how Frankie just compared BF1 to BF4. Everyone's just kind of wiped Battlefield Hardline from their minds :P
There are so many cool moments in this gameplay! The best footage i have seen so far by a mile. :)
*We need back up now!*
General: It is time....Release frankie..
But sir!
General: I said release frankie!.
Yes sir!
Attention all soldiers Frankie is in battlefield. Code red, I repeat Frankie is on the battlefield
THE EDITING IS GORGEOUS TOO BEAUTIFUL OMFGGGGGGGGGGF and frankie, do some more arma 3 dayz :D
exile*
He done got a new dayz!
4:17 that kill looked so satisfying
Same for me, we need to stay very VERY far away from each other.
6:50 was even more for me :D (when the bayoneted the guy not sure if it's the exact correct time)
+Cars n' Bikes then I'll just use a scope •_•
definitely one of the best videos Frankie has made ever.
So many black German soldiers! Wow! This game is so progressive! Thank you Captain Sweden!
EA
+AxmanGamingHD It bugs me that they have to push their agenda so hard. It's a shame, the game looks like fun.
Benjamin Czapp Im from Sweden and I kinda agree, but dont blame sweden for it. Dice has employers all over the world and just because the main HQ is in sweden dosent mean everyone who worked on the game and decided was swedish :)
Benjamin Czapp Yea I understand and agree, this SJW is happening all over and all the time. Its all over the western states today.
+Benjamin Czapp Characters are customizable, and thus people have the ability to be a different shade on the spectrum of pigmentation.
About the black German soldiers, stop being so "omg you're racist it's a game", personally I love having well done historical accuracy, and there were close to none non white soldiers in Europe.
However, if we get some desert maps like in Africa or the Middle East where the war was still fought, then there isn't a problem with it.

I understand America having black soldiers because we've Been diverse for a long time but i don't see why they had to make Germanys soldiers multiracial if Britain and Americas were
My guess is that you're allowed to choose the race of your soldier
Lol it's a video game not a documentary chill I wanna play as me
what I wonder, though. if authenticity is very important to you, why only focus on black people being present? there are so many anarchronisms in this game, black people should really be the least of your concerns.
i mean, everyone and his uncle is shooting with smgs or lmgs here. that's a lot more out of place than a black dude on the western front.
anyway, just take it as the game it is and not as an authentic recreation, because it's far away from it.
Frankie sounds like he is Morgan Freeman's son, he has a voice of gold
The sheer amount of anger that also sounds slightly like fear behind the battle cry of the bayonet charge always gives me goosebumps, this game is going to be awesome...
Why are there no transgender soldiers? I am offended.
What?
On internet everyone is offended by everything but still what?!!!
you neglected to say *bi-racial* transgender soldiers. Fucking racist
I can't believe there's no genderfluid asexual dragonkin in this game. ea must be literally hitler
+your all mighty god *peoples
Black german soldiers in WWI? Oh common DICE!
They existed irl, too.
+ZeD but not in that scale and not in that front
Daniel Laurent
Well, sure.
But that'd be one of many small incorrect things in the game.
It's probably just customisation. Not a big deal.
Afro-german colonial soldiers were a thing, like the Askari militia. True, they may have not been a common sight in mainland Europe, but it was a possibility. And if it bothers you that much, pretend your soldier is just blackened by all the smoke and dirt.

Awesome scenes you make man! I loved the heavy tank scene with that music on the background haha. You make the thrills from these games 👍
Were scopes like these really that sophisticated and that commonly seen circa 1912-14? Or is this a case of Modern Warfare mechanics bleeding into a 2016-produced period game?
Yes to the latter. There were scopes in use (like this: www.efdrifles.com/images/323/323r.jpg), but not to the extent they are on here. Hell, WWII usage of sniper rifles wasn't so different, they were employed in much the same way and most of the rifles used were from WWI, so think of it like that.

Well having actual realistic WW1 style warfare wouldn't be very fun for the Call of Duty crowd.

I consider myself part of the "Call of Duty crowd". I never missed scopes in my WWII games, and their presence in this video I find a little too much. They could have been more authentic without becomming slaves to realism.
ultimagameboy
when I said Call of Duty I was referring to the fact of too much arcade like gameplay.
Glenn A
I don't really mind the arcady gameplay. I'll take fun over realism in my action shooters any day, including those set in WWI. Point is, they can be thematically and dramatically loyal to the setting/era without having to enslave themselves to just sitting in trenches and mass-storming machine-guns, etc.
They should mix and jazz it up, certainly, but I still want to be able to look at the thing and be like; "yeah, this is WWI in all it's epicness and horror"... when I look at this video I'm more like; "is this WWI or II? Is that weapon/scope even invented yet? Is it this widespread on the frontlines?" It just takes me out of the game I suppose. But then, I'm a single-player campaign kinda guy.
It's hard to think this was 2 years ago
It's hard to think this was 5 years ago :(
@@papcsi95 Jeez, time flys doesnt it, I miss frankie and his DayZ series
Has no one tried shooting those balloons in the beginning of the video or knifing the ropes?
You can take them down with planes, but u have to crash into them
+HisDukeNess their meant to crash planes
+MR. T.M. Yeah they used them in WW1 & WW2 for planes to crash into. Basically making it harder for planes to fly low or high depending where they were placed.
You can shoot them down and they blow up with a HUGE explosion. I have some gameplay of it on my channel.
PatooFA how'd you get into the closed alpha? I wish I was in it >.
I love your videos. I don't even play on the computer but I enjoy listening to you and Sada so much I just watch everything. I also love how you appreciate American war history. I get so immersed when you tell stories and have video game footage in the background. Your passion for the info makes everything that much more exciting! Thanks for the videos!
The fact that this is Alpha (!!!) footage, compared to 2042... man, I gotta say how far Dice have fallen.
I just realized we never got a Battlefield 5 video from frankie..
and battlefield 2042 :(
@@ffoster4360 Not yet :) hope it's good enough for his comeback.
okay, so there going to be black German solders on the western front, which never happened, french and Americans had black solders. Germany only had black solders in Africa, not in the western front. so ok it's not realistic, not ideal but ok. but if I can play as a black charcter, why can't I play as a women? or and Asian? or Latino? or Transgender? or an attack helicopter?
#prayforhelis
Some Latino people fought for Harlem hellfighters.
There is no such thing as black solder. Solder is always metallic grey and is used by the industry to combine materials.
+Alice Dexter that's not true at all
Get ready for Fascist liberalism to take over this era. Every next game based on history will include only black and transgender like they dominated the era. I'm not joking. This world is going to hell.
I like it how when frankie is on a tank a plane tries to Kamikaze him. Also when he shot that plane down and combined with the music it gave me goosebumps. Frankie is just one of the best youtubers.
I only play Hardcore mode in every battlefield age that offered it, so I am highly excited to see this games hardcore mode.
yea same hardcore makes the game realistic
same,
So it will turn into Verdun?
BFBC2 HC MODE WAS LEGIT BOYS!
Yeah i agree, hardcore mode just feels more real.
who else thinks FRANKIEonPCin1080p is the best youtuber
Me, he'd be better if h didn't have a life :b More videos would most likely be produced.
he takes to long to upload
+Peter Hodgson quality over quantity
True, if he had RUclips as a full-time job, he would honestly be my fav youtuber. Too bad he has an actual job IRL.
Chaelen Johnson ig ur right
Was that a black German soldier?
the germans used a lot of black soldiers in ww1, actually everyone involved did. America, Britain, Russia, Germany you name it. They all had quite the number of black/coloured soldiers
umm, no they didnt
+Voieux What has Marxism, which is about
+Werner Beinhart economics to do with a misrepresentation of ethnics in WW I armies?
Werner Beinhart They're cultural Marxists, like pretty much all leftists. If its white it aint right.
That's definitely one of the best gameplay footages I have seen for Battlefield 1. Great Video !
The people who disliked the video probably thought it meant " DIS I LIKE "
no thy probably did not like the video
+Oscar Kreslins Kuka
Are you a time traveller from 2012? You're really behind on the jokes.
Venomy, "Cool story, bro" :P
+Rob Fraser True story
This game is so atmospheric
It is highly immersive, that's what he means...
+iiNova He means the setting, particularly the environment with the destruction and weather effects and primitive technologies, gives the game a specific and strong 'feel'. Beyond just sight and sound, the 'feeling' of being there is what all storytellers try to achieve... Atmosphere and tone is especially important in film.
I love the terrain etc, but the equipment etc sure isn't necessarily accurate. Technically perhaps, but not accurate from an immersion stand point.
...he looks through his scope, he sees the soldier who shot his best friend... His finger is on the trigger. But suddenly a warm hand touches his shoulder... Moving him... the knife hits his heart... His rifle lays beside him but he cannot reach it... In his last few seconds alive... He thinks of his 5 year old daughter... One last time, one last moment, one last year
I started watching frankie when i started trying ark online...then i quit playing ark and watched frankies videos. Dude you are talented both as a commentator and as a player, watching you makes me actually laugh and you are skilled. Best of luck man
How do you play this already is it youtubers only?
+FRANKIEonPCin1080p How you liking it so far?
You sir, are one lucky chap
***** oh ok thanks btw love you vids man :)
pretty nice video as allways frankie. Was just hopping for some zeppelin action. Maybe in the next ?
+FRANKIEonPCin1080p im sure i've seen tour emblem somewhere.
UI and Gameplay say StarWars: Battlefront.. Looks say WW1...
did u play the game to say that?
>looks say ww2
FTFY
you can look at the ui without playing the game dumbass
+SJGSpook They took mechanics from Battlefront and added it to the game.
They took Battlefront and added WW1 to it
This is gonna be the best battlefield ever !!!! Na actually scrap that!!!! the best fps ever !!!
This is, without a doubt, the finest representation of Battlefield 1 Alpha. Kudos, sir!
What is that thing saying teddy bear bouncing around the screen
Houston Penrod A watermark.
It's part of the alpha. It's his gamer name, date
Wtf is that "AHappyTeddyBear" thingy flashing on the screen
It was closed alpha so it did this
I didnt even notice it and ive watched this 6 times lol
14:04 hold on, is that guy black? did the german army have black soldiers during world war 1?
Yes, called Afrodeutsch they were regiments of black soldiers used in and around the German colonies
+Usmcftw355 'in the colonies' tho they had no black soldiers on the western front where this game is based.
The game will take place all over, if you've seen the reveal trailer.
the game is not only based on the western front, but the map he's playing is.
Rafox66 meaning there shouln't be any black soldiers in this map right?
In tense music play and gun shots around you, British lady: 'we're losing objective butter....'
what is that music that Frankie is playing when epic moments happen like 16:50
In the description. Phantom Power- Weaponized
"Weaponized" by Phantom Power
Darude-Frankie Storm
Frankie - Darude Storm
why is it so hard for People to look in the comments or in the description first before asking..? :D
I'm defiantly buying this
Also your way better than pewdiepie but that's my opinion
+TheVoidwalker Lmfao
Im sorry but I think we can all confirm that you are too young to be playing M rated games.
why does almost everyone I see on the internet spell definitely "defiantly" jesus christ that gets on my nerves.
i am also defiantly getting this game :D
did the sjw's try to force female soldiers in this?
No female soldiers
Nope they are just calling it sexist.
they tried and failed
DICE knows better than that nonsense
Did a neckbeard on the internet complain about a non-problem? Yes
+heavyglassglass Not the men who actually died? Wow.
The more and more I watch BF1 videos the more badass it gets
I really don't get how everyone seems to like ww2 more. What is it about it that you like?
fair enough
Seeing this makes me realize they should have just done a WW2 game instead.
That's right pal
What do you think of WW2?
they should do it next
it would be battlefield 2
Nah this looks good
What if you could use the ammo box to belt feed LMGs when mounted
that could break the game in a way but also make it amazing
Yeah, have it so it took more time or something to set up
Well it wouldnt be infinite ammo, but instead of like a 30 bullet clip on that gun shown.. you could get a 100
+minitos1 If they add it. It should take longer to set up and longer to get out of the mount. Also no one can use the ammo box that is belt feeding the LMG. OR it should be an attachment/gadget that allows you to mount and belt feed.
matt datt Yes exactly.
Getting back from deployment and watching Frankie...pure happiness. Keep it up!
You're pretty good at these shooty games, but I mean what's really the point if you can't even hold butter?
I bet 100 dollars that 12 year Olds are going to use snipers all the time
I will use Sniper all the time
Trust me, i have alpha access and its not like that at all, very balanced and no constant snipers
Support and scout for sure, with the bolt action rifles I'll spend most of my time using the irons
+Noah Hanka it's because it's alpha acces lol, when it releases the 12 yo/ olds will come
whats the point of a ww1 game if they're using semi autos?
i know that no one fielded a fucking semiautomatic fucking rifle as the standard weapon and the first country to adopt a semi automatic rifle in such fashion was Mexico. maybe you should ask your self that question?
Potato Bro
the black Germans do piss me off. that insane is not?
Yea what would be the point of it being a World War One game if all the soldiers were black or asain
fun
derpy derp I have no idea what you mean
I thoroughly enjoyed the saving private newbie portion, it was very entertaining. The whole of your video was entertaining as a matter of fact.
Frankie why does your name keep blinking round the screen?
Closed alpha, it was the same on the BF4 CTE. It's a watermark to show that it is an incomplete game, I think.
Its because its closed alpha an officially you are not allowed to publish any video's or content (you have to accept that licence everytime you start up BF1). Not sure if Frankie got permission to post though.
But that screen makes it easy for EA to get your info. Thats why it keeps blinking around so its hard to block in video's
+Mark de Vries The embargo dropped like a week ago..
DICE always puts those in their alpha/pre-alpha games as a watermark to show that the game is in early development state. Why exactly, i don't know.
Am I the only one who prefers this map to the beta one?
Tanks are so fast in this game! TOO FAST
W
Yeah, the bigger ones should be a little slower
They are actually good speed
+Joey N why are there no trenches?
maybe because this is a urban map?
Frankie I remember you when you were at about 700,000 subs. And I have just now came back to you you are so much better now! Thanks for what you do and thank you on another level for always keeping me entertained. :)
playing as jamie fox in django haha tiiight
Fucking love that movie.
imafackinjunglist I do believe it's pretty hard for an ass to be hairy but It's clear you wouldn't know because the only hairy ass you've seen is your own.
imafackinjunglist Ok, that's too bad isn't but unfortunately due to be not caring I don't really care what your ass is.
battlefield 1 aka star wars battlefield earth edition
This game is very different from Battlefront but ok
i think it's actually very similar. okay, it's not star wars you got us there.
explain why it's like battlefront other than massive maps and the game being beautiful.
but you'd know because you've probably played bf1 so much
+Viral Slash good point
Fun to kno they useb red dots during ww1 and motion sensors
No they didn't
jelo villasenor They did
+jelo villasenor Actually, they did, but they worked poorly
When a game is so immersive people forget It's a fucking game
haha sure dthey did
This is why you come here and watch frankie videos, because nothing else compares.
all these people complaining about color lets just have fun with the game. atleast its not infinite warfare.
so you are saying stalin is good because at least he wasnt hitler?
***** no dude you missed the point, i meant something being better than other thing doesnt still make it good, for example stick is better than stone but you still cant hunt with a stick
A Volney if you are charging me 40 dollars for that steak and say that i would never buy steak from you also would recommend everybody not to go to your place. your logic is flawless
TypeZero It's just an example bud. The steak is free, the point is that the steak is bad. It's not the worst but it's bad, and so even if it isn't the worst it still merits criticism. Like battlefield. It isn't the worst but it still merits criticism.
A Volney i guess you forgot you are paying for battlefield. if it was free of course its pretty good. but its not and full experience will cost 110 dollars its 4 times that in my country so excuse me if i critique it harsh
AYO HOL UP
SO YOU BE SAYIN WE WUZ GERMANS N SHIEET???
+Batu Yü yeah apparently everyone was black in WW1 😂
Mostly in the colonies. Not so much on the western front.
was that a black german? no very accurate.
They did have a lot of territory they took over in Africa, although I'm not 100% sure the German's forced them fight in WW1.
ikr, the amount of tokenism for a WW1 title is a little ridiculous. I'm just waiting for the soldier that identifies as an Apache Attack Helicopter to appear
Africans fought in WW1...
+SgtSmuckers Or the transgender.
not very accurate? if you want historical accuracy and immersion go fight in a war
The ending though, as soon as you landed and the awesome music came in, dude that gave me goosebumps
Funny how there is a Russian Winchester in the game, but no Eastern Front. Wtf??!!
they will surely add more guns to the game when it's done
it's still a damn Beta
*Alpha
+Christian Quiles closed alpha*
the mosin isn't even in the game.
Let's just hope the game doesn't get saturated with automatic guns. So not lore friendly, like why make WW1 shooter and make it play like a modern shooter.
Watch the video before commenting thanks
Viktor Ceder watched nearly all bf1 gameplays of like 10 channels, and everything is semiautomatic or automatic, only snipers arent and you cant take scope out so there isnt any bolt action standart rifle, even in bf3 bf4 you could take the scope out
+TypeZero Presets exist. Customization will soon be in the game.
Doge (Steam) still dont understand why they did presets
TypeZero You can take of scopes lol, for saying you've watched that much, it doens't seem like you actually listened... There are pre-sets, and normal customization
Think it would be cool if they take away all the icons on the enemies maybe even take away the minimap or all the objective icons circling around the edges of the screen. Think it would be more immersive .
Or maybe just a "realistic mode". That would be sweet!
You can remove the HUD
Yeah I've seen that. :) But still would like to see a game mode where the HUD and the "catching" sound when you get a kill, as that tell you that the guy you just shoot is dead.
Play hardcore mode.
richishere82 You still get audio cues, like the sound effects from when you kill someone. :/
One thing i really like about this game is that we've had so many world war games it's unreal..Dice have been brave enough to take a world war game and totally own it!..the game looks truly stunning and I really think alot of people will be pleased..fair play Dice you look like you've learned and done a cracking job! (proof will be in the pudding though but by going by various RUclipsrs and from what we've seen this is rightly highly anticipated)
wtf a black german? 14:02
Might as well add transgender soldiers and women into the fucking multiplayer
The units of black soldiers who fought for the german side in Europe (almost all afro-german soldiers fought on the African front) were very small, and they were used as support troops as in, cooking food, running supply lines etc. They did not do the fighting and the dying.
nor black german soldiers in european trenches :P
lol so un-immersive, what there they thinking
If your looking for immersion then you should also complain about the automatic and semi-automatic guns and the tanks that move way to fast for the time period, if a solider being black is your main concern (which will most likely be a character design option in game) that's wrong
Portugal VS France
France all the way
Vive la France
portugal 2-1
England
Hope Portugal wins, good luck France :)
1st comment and nobody can stop me
#staymad
Nope someone beat you to it. #GetFucked
i beat ya so yeah
#wrekt
yuck..no homo comments..i just about threw up
Dude I'm subbing man. Your gameplay is gold. You make it seem so cinematic. Very refreshing and fun to watch.
I am changing my preorder now I am going to battlefield 1 now
lol what was it before?
Duck Simulator 2016
ECK Jam haha lol
is there Americans in this but no french ??
It is a closed alpha so there probably will be French and America fought in ww1 too
+Logan L France is dlc
El Asso Wipo lol wtf
+Logan L French will be dlc but it might be free
+zezman d France is DLC but I think all the DLC will be free.

Mate, 100% watching you as a sniper is the most satisfying thing to watch. Keep it up and cannot wait to see more BF1 content.
