Ahhhh 2021 will this be the year we hear about Titanfall 3? One can only dream... Happy new year Frothy

[@muchclutch4906]

Yea fr I want tf3

[@Muffinpurplegurk]

I'll officially give up all home in 2022 as it will be 6 years since TF2 launched

[@markmcleod7656]

Dont do that. Dont give me hope

[@matthewemery7617]

The mastiff became less consistent? Titanfall never left us!

[@GalacticYuna]

(Haven't watched this whole video yet) I would argue it's now more consistent because of the extra spread. May take a few more shots to down, but it should become more reliable

[@sonder_1620]

Frothy: uploads 10 minutes before Dream face reveal YT algorithm: so you have chosen death

[@FrothyOmen]

sudoku time

[@robertwatson3852]

I have not played apex in a while so at this point I’m watching your vids for your personality

[@FrothyOmen]

Thank you for sticking around! Check some streams out sometimes for more of that, and often times games that aren't apex

[@facechriscat4214]

Moving the Prowler to the care packages I think was the main thing that made the hemlok seem stronger. Also given the range increases on the two maps in rotation other than KC, The dual close/long distance nature makes it really versatile for people that want to run close range on the other gun.

[@SJrad]

I think care package prowler is still disappointing. It doesn’t feel overpowered compared to other care package weapons. Like it’s comparable to a mostly or fully kitted r-99 or volt and if I already have one

[@GalacticYuna]

Hey Frothy! Do you think you'll be making some content on the event or anything? Also hope you had a good Christmas and new year

[@FrothyOmen]

Once it's out, it'll definitely be talked about in one way or another. As always, I'll stream it lots, so that's the best place to stay up to date!

[@GalacticYuna]

@@FrothyOmen i'll see you there, then!

[@banztagtv]

Nice, we got some bicratic tunes while you read us the patch notes for bed time 😂. Also the horizon tactical affecting DOC is huge for one reason. You can place Gibbies dome on it so the depending on how this plays out. You can push a team on height with cover...from a bruhdah

[@FrothyOmen]

I should start another channel where my job is to just read bedtime stories

[@banztagtv]

@@FrothyOmen a worthy endeavor after that spicy year whose name shall not be spoken

[@1Shayz1]

Diamond Crypto here Caustic is pretty annoying to play against for teams that are already set up in a position but generally most teams simply choose not to engage if they don't have to in ranked. The downside is that he is bad at repositioning so I prefer not having one on my team as I find that mobility and taking position is key. His traps were already really easy to keep up with a Gold Helmet though (previously 18 second cooldown) so this buff is basically giving him a permanent gold helmet which is incredibly strong. In ranked most players know to shoot the barrels as they're being deployed but it's much harder to do that when Caustic can keep putting up new barrels behind the current one Maybe this buff was warranted for Olympus but KC and WE he was already a top tier legend.

[@animesoulful3574]

hemlock buff came in 4 im pretty sure that changed the recoil to the burst that opened the eyes to everybody learning and using the gun

[@f.b.iagent3971]

No the burst delay buff came in mid season 5 or 6, then they realised it was being played a lot so they nerfed it

[@Skyfoudre64]

Well with all these nice quality of life improvement, there may actually be hope for custom crosshairs ! Better late than never :D

[@FrothyOmen]

Abandon all hope, ye who request custom crosshair support after the year 2000 :(

[@Skyfoudre64]

I mean even others EA titles like the Battlefield series has at least color changeable crosshairs :'( And for any FPS that want itself to have a serious competitive scene it's seams like a bear minimum :/

[@FrothyOmen]

@@Skyfoudre64 I agree, I'm just being Salty about not having it in any game that I play outside of quake.

[@Skyfoudre64]

@@FrothyOmen There's always the ReShade custom crosshairs option I guess. It seams like so little work for such a huge part of an FPS. I mean it's literally the thing that's supposed to be a guideline to where our shots will end up :/

[@idontwanttoputmyname403]

I didn't notice how tall Bangalore's hair was until you pointed it out.

[@chaseusmaximus4738]

I'd like to see a Caustic rework. Make the gas deal less damage, but add a debuff to anyone within it. I'm thinking the damage is basically the same, but it adds a small damage multiplier to enemies within it.

[@yungmuffin7446]

That doesn’t make sense i think he is still in a kind of balanced state changing him that way would ruin him

[@StayFractalesque]

there's a huge debuff in the gas, you can't move or see

[@neilfoy5433]

Finally... CONTENT!! Thank you

[@spencerpatton667]

Frothy is back hype

[@jackcarlos]

Why don't they fix the shitty party chat that cuts out at loading screens?!?!?

[@tom_zwayne1761]

When is the next Gen update coming?

[@SJrad]

I’m disappointed they they Didn’t fix the worst rampart bug that makes her honestly unplayable. The one where she can’t place her walls down on seemingly normal sloped ground out in the open.

[@defaultgoblin8929]

mike hawk is a funny name i think. What do you think of the name mike hawk?

[@1Shayz1]

Hemlock was bad until they buffed the fire rate and reduced the recoil, but now that it's consistent they are nerfing the damage Yet they still haven't touched the Volt :/

[@logantaylor1834]

Volt's strong, but in my opinion, not as good as R99. I don't think it's the best energy weapon in the game, that would likely be the Lstar

[@Kimihro]

Yeah Volt is ridiculous for its aim consistency and high damage yield per bullet

[@cheut]

In what world does caustic need a buff

[@jonathanh.2038]

I'm a caustic main that only plays causal. I never have a problem versing caustics (in both gameplay and temperament)when I'm not playing caustic . I'm level 400 and consistently get into tryhard lobbies. Maybe its the ranked experience? The same three or four legends are ran at high level ranked so I can understand that frustration of fighting him constantly. I personally am most upset by revenant because of death totem. But unexperienced caustics are so bad with the traps I have no issue fighting them. NOTE: This is a copy paste from another comment thread to give a bit of perspective. I personally don't think caustic needed a buff either. This means they will probably nerf him in some either way next season. F.

[@darkphoenyx3101]

Most likely the loot MRVNs has a white rarity because maybe for max rarity, all items dropped will be that rarity, instead of a mix of rarity. But i am a moron so dont listen to me

[@kyletheidi0t456]

Caustic is just extremely obnoxious to play against. I don't feel justified in saying he is strong, but he definitely is frustrating to play against

[@kyletheidi0t456]

@@jonathanh.2038 I really think its the slowing effect of the gas for me. It just completely disrupts the flow of combat. But balancing shouldn't be based on my opinion, obviously. I'm a very mediocre controller player who's roots are in titanfall so I just like going fast

[@kodlackwhitemane5596]

AAHHH, FIRST BLOOD. AND SO IT BEGINSSSSS

[@jonathanh.2038]

@@kyletheidi0t456 without the slow effect though, caustic would be ass unless they drastically increased the radius of the gas or its damage. It wouldn't be a good nerf.

[@kyletheidi0t456]

@@jonathanh.2038 never said it would be. I just said I find him obnoxious. If he was removed from the game I can't say I would miss him.

[@akanthony100]

Hat Frothy!

[@Ba55a77ack]

Yeeto Deleto Cannon. I'm done XD

[@francescoluchena8302]

I'm on the opposite for the ttk, just because this is a br and 1v3 is REALLY hard right now, to a point where it is just impossibile, not mentioning the 3rd party kind of problem, too many resources in a fight that even when won makes you loose a lot of time and get destroyed by another team

[@nomynameisLarry]

the caustic buff is nonsense. every mode i play is plagued with him and it is infuriating. he honestly is the main reason i stopped playing. Caustic and energy weapons ruined the game for me

[@xxradd2515]
