Playing Fistful of Frags: Wild West Footsies

[@jollygrapefruit786]

I love how this game has that souce movement mechanics, allowing you to walk on small ledges and airstrafe to be incredibly stealthy

[@kruddthebarbarian6169]

Fistful of Frags is where I've had my proudest moments in multiplayer games and is probably the fairest when it comes to balance.

[@mercenaryTendencies]

Handgun throw used to be a LOT better when you didn't have to charge it. I would regularly nail people with my revolver to finish them off after emptying my gun, but now you'll just got shot while you're trying to charge it. Derringers also used to be a lot better before the across-board accuracy nerf and higher damage drop off- I used to swear by them on the boat map. I don't play much anymore, but I enjoyed it in the day, and I thought this did a really good job of providing an overview. Almost every point I thought worth mentioning came up later in the video. Keep it up.

[@dannylamb456]

Double sawed offs is still pretty damn good though, especially since the pump-shotgun keeps getting its damaged whittled off every single update.

[@Web720]

The hammerless is basically the new Derringers.

I love how you put a song from the GUN soundtrack in the montage of you eating shit, that song always played on the hardest missions so it was on while I was eating shit too, lmao

[@TheKid377400]

This free to play multiplayer game probably has some of the most satisfying melee combat I have ever come across. It's so fun and viable that my playstyle is to sink all my points into a melee focused loadout and just go ham.

[@TheUnusualGoth]

I think you did this video real well. You went through the game an' how it works, combat an' function of weapons in gameplay You're commentary was flowing an' never felt like you it was interrupted or stopped too suddenly Also I enjoy how you mixed in the game sessions you did with us which I guess gave you more footage to work with Enjoyable video man

[@Blahblahblah-s9x]

Great guide for newer players such as myself, thanks.

[@IMCR8Z]

This video made me reinstall Fistful of Frags.

[@shonjones7231]

The Shotgun Gamer yeah

[@joelmilten]

'Footsies is a fighting game term'. I was listening passively while playing a game, but that earned a wide grin from me and I had to immediately stop to comment.

[@Tanner_Shelton]

Played this game for like half an hour a few years ago and didn’t really think anything of it. Then today I was thinking about how cool it would be if rockstar made a red dead revolver 2 where it’s just polished multiplayer modes and then I remembered this game exists, which totally filled that need. spent the rest of the day playing it and plan on playing it more soon. Great review.

[@plexidotorg216]

The people who use the hatchet exclusively are dead to me. In all seriousness, though, this is probably one of my favourite multiplayer fpses, up there with Killing Floor 2 and Team Fortress 2. The satisfaction of getting a 20+ killstreak is probably something I won't feel the equivalent of any time soon, especially during the occasional lunacy of 4 team deathmatch. Pass the whiskey.

[@brandonmorel2658]

I remember first downloading this in the shittiest laptop you could imagine, sometime around 2015-2016, it was really fun. I Always felt melee was overpowered, never gave much thought about the mechanics though, I just shot everyone with Mare's Leg. Great video too! The best reviewers always makes us spectators want to play/replay the game in question, you have done this with a lot of the games you talk about, you really do a great job.

[@1111Tactical]

IMO, BF1 shouldn't have put in anywhere near the amount of semi and full auto guns in. Shoulod have focused on the mechanics of old guns like in this game, just on a bigger scale and longer ranges. Would have been much better, much more skillful, way less spammy.

[@c-man9406]

To be fair Bf is known for quick gameplay in a big ass map, I recommend Verdun if you like using only semi and bolt action rifle

[@greybayles7955]

@@c-man9406 I still wish they went a little less spammy for bf1. Bf5 does that kind of thing fine, and weve had a million ww2 games. Bf1 was still loads of fun though.

[@DStecks]

BF1 makes more sense if you pretend that it's a realistic WW2 game

[@BeefMeisterSupreme]

@@DStecks until you remember that you can see people running around with obsolete prototype weapons from the previous war

[@skippythescout5446]

HOLY SHIT, SOMEONE REMEBERD THE GUN SOUNDTRACK ! Subed just for the music, stayed for the great video.

[@Walpurgisnackt]

lmao at the realistic percussion cap revolver reloading

[@Maggerama]

That gunsmoke is a brilliant feature, I'm impressed.

[@tacticability521]

I loved FoF. I was always itching for a game like this, and it filled that whiskey-shaped hole in my heart.

[@jeremyterkelsen2518]

Watching COD gameplay after Fistful makes you realize how little effort is put into that franchise.

[@ThatGabeFlood]

6:32-:35 serves as an elegant summary of what my own experience with this game ended up being

[@BDozer666]

You forgot to mention the Team Elimination game mode (the 2nd best one after Break Bad), and so did the rest of the comment section for 4 damn months until I posted :d Shame on you people lol

[@CalavErik]

I had some fun with this game, but between having no friends to play it with and having no servers near Argentina, I'm just missing it.

[@brandonmorel2658]

I also remember downloading the Cowboy Bebop theme song from the workshop, it just sounded so good each time one entered the main menu.

[@fuzzydunlop7928]

This seems like the gameified version of that sequence in Saving Private Ryan where Tom Sizemore and ze German have their rifles jam, then empty their pistols at each other, and then resort to throwing their helmets at each other.

[@fearofchicke]

“Kick my boot off at someone” Look, it’s hard enough to get a boot off sitting down with two free hands and an afternoon.

[@BKSF1]

fuck yeah, apparently the game still isn't dead so im gonna play it. ive got the beginnings of carpal tunnel now so "proper" shooters just arent in the cards for me

[@BKSF1]

this game fucking owns dude damn ty for this vid

[@notfreeman6809]

Reinstalling the game right now, i miss this game

[@c-man9406]

This game make you feel REAL GOOD when you make a quick killstreak

[@thatguynamedzack13]

thanks to you for showing it in your postal 3 review, I tried fistful of frags and really love it. Tho i stop playing it because of another multiplayer game made in the source engine. *cough* csgo *cough*

[@lukylooper]

maybe, I don't know, but you should, err, consider not playing that skinfest of a game?

[@reservoirfrogs2177]

Nathaniel Ainslie The skin system is total bullshit, but at least there is still a lot of fun to be had without them, I have never opened a single case nor paid that game 1 cent more than my original purchase of it and I still have fun with it

[@Phhase]

I kind of miss the Gentleman option, it was a fun challenge. Also, completely missed the best weapon: powder kegs! With the proper setup, they are meme machines.

[@ColinJWiens]

Sweet clips and commentary. I played this a bunch a couple years ago, got bored of everything except dynamite and kicking explosive barrels.

[@MH-sg8rn]

You should check out double action boogaloo

[@grosezero8834]

>shoot >miss >throw gun >run, kick and punch the fuck out of the oponent the weapon tossing skill is the greatest thing in any game ever

[@DBZking119]

another wonderful episode of playing so my question is do you think the game could do anything to improve itself or do you think its perfect as is? and also kudos for using Music from gun in the montage at the beginning its cool to see someone else who knows about that game

[@lxjoe96]

'Gun' was my first thought when he said that whiskey restores health

[@wyattwilliamson5896]

my favorite loadout is the sawed off with the knives

[@KrazyKain]

I won many games using the Bow, it's fairly powerful and kills are worth a lot of points. Man I loved this game, I wonder how the player count is doing these days. It's a small download and no real commitment to get back into.

[@supermikeikev]

Are cowboys known for dual wielding? I thought the cowboy stereotype was having one handgun and being a really fast and good shot with it.

[@SenisPucker]

It does make me wonder if dual-wielding was even a thing historically. In the modern day, with abundant automatic and semi-automatic weaponry, it's pointless, but back then, it was really the only way to be able to put out more than one shot per second with any degree of accuracy.

[@LOUDcarBOMB]

The term "cowboy" back then was seen as a very negative term since all they did was cause trouble, not like movie style cowboys. People (a very small minority) did carry 2 or more pistols, but it was looked as someone that's going to cause trouble, like shooting the sheriff, robbing a bank, etc. where having 2 slow loading guns is better than 1slow loading in a gunfight. A lot of people did carry a pistol or lever-action, but was used for like pest control, self defense, trick shooting, etc.

[@DoganME]

Music from Gun

[@dobrodusznysafandua1113]

This game is still great today

[@giguyjoe]

2:43 Nah the inconvenience comes from the fact that you're trying to make shots with old weapons count in a game that uses Counter-Strike's accuracy system.

[@WanderingKumquat]

I'm so into this game

[@robertharris6092]

Well im happy u saw this in my recommendeds. And itz free so my broke ass needs something new to play. And iv always wanted cowboy era weapons being used realistically. And im also tired of games where you can sprint at full speed with no decrease in accuracy.

[@jeremyj.5687]

Maybe the best free shooter. I have loved it ever since release of the mod back in 2008.

[@LtSprinkulz]

Quake Champions goes early access on Steam August 22nd.

[@AlucardRo]

Have you ever tried Wanted! mod for Half Life? i guess its from what this game was based in first place.

"Here's a montage of me eating shit" *subscribed and notified*

[@saschabiceps5394]

I personally think that fof_sweetwater is the worst map (map with the train stopiing in the mid), it has way too much corridors, so there's no chance to get away form a guy with a carbine or a coachgun.

[@tonglohng995]

Yea im glad you recommended it to me. Im not as much into it as you, but i put a good 30 hours into it

[@ToastyRob]

love ur content

[@Professor-Badger]

I wanted to like the video but the likes were at 360 and i didn't have it in me to ruin it, very quality video as usual tho snaker

[@indiflow_]

So this is basically any Red Dead game but for PC?

[@vahlok1426]

Anyone know if this is still actively played? I'm guessing yes but I just was wondering if anyone has first hand experience. I'm looking for something new to pass the time between classes when I have nothing else to do.

[@jlammas7980]

nice video

[@siralsmi2095]

good game

[@ABCkirja]

shame i have never heard of this game until now

[@anthonytilleman3576]

I prefer using the SAA or the magnum

Wtf does he say at 4:07 - 4:12??? It literally sounds like he's talking backwards...

Why not review GodFather 1 (The Game), Godfather 2 was a total train wreck i might die just by thinking about it

[@judgecsk]

Pls re-visit FoF ! :D Pass the whiskey !

[@DStecks]

If this were made today it would be a no-respawns CS clone and would suck

[@kristjantagel3177]

the reason i play is i love wild west

[@CasualSteamGamer]

Whiskey :D

[@Spanjop]

22:09 yep, there are Russian players.

[@voneror]

Behead those that insult Vigilantes.

[@chrisg5219]

Why cant we get a singleplayer wild west shooter like this? As good as red dead is the shooting doesnt feel as punchy and weighty and they're console exclusive bc fuck the industry's focus on consoles.

[@peppermillers8361]

Because that would require to make the AI smart in order to make the shootouts fun.

[@thatguynamedzack13]

"Name another multiplayer game where i can wrestle the weapon from my enemies." Well... there's the culling.

[@phillipmele8533]

Just make sure you don’t killstreak against the dev lol

[@stanleyrobles3759]

Tried the game. Saw the charm, but the dev said they aren't developing or supporting it anymore and I'd rather not get my heart wrapped around an online multiplayer title with no support.

[@ColinJWiens]

Doesn't need support if it's a competent game. Frankly I'm surprised they kept updating a free game that was already nearly perfect and moddable for so many years

[@MisterBones2910]

Whatever happened to games being "finished"?

[@formaggioparma]

this game now got 1 new guns and workshop!!! the game got 200% better! download now and you get 20% more western!

[@eliel1815shadow]

people play this game?, i thought it was dead!

[@FoolsGold-yk5gr]

GJ and nice GaMe..

[@MrSumdeus]

Like number 666 hail Yourselves

[@whusskey20]

I got 300+ hours into this game anyone wanna play with me? :D

[@pitchblackgrue]

The game has a good concept but suffers from a desperate need to get off the Source Engine. There needs to be a faster way to switch weapons if you're going to insist on me picking up weapons off the grounds (which I can't do half the time anyways because even asking for another Remington to double my firepower is apparently too much to ask).

[@brandonmorel2658]

Source is not the problem, its simply the mechanics the devs want the player to use.

[@p-y8210]
