I’m gonna miss the beautiful and sometimes blinding red
ahahah yeah I think it's still there when I close my eyes LOL
Some times it did hurt in the eyes
I’m not
As someone who is red color blind due to damaged cones I’m actually so thankful..
same but my oled is going to be very happy its gone LOL
at no point I felt like clicking off the video, it was great, learnt so many new stuff because I stoped playing mid season 1 and I will probably come back to the game now after watching this
Ayyy thank you! I thought you said "at ONE point I felt clicking off" hahaha, but yeah the game is in a better state now honestly, I think that it wouldn't hurt giving it another try :)
I'm so impressed by Embark's ability to develop new content that keeps pushing the boundaries of the game in multiple aspects. Thanks for the preview! Loving the content.
Ayy thank you for the kind words! Yeah I agree and I think that one of the strengths is that Embark are not afraid to take risks and I think that's so cool
Great video! Thanks for putting this together
Ayy thank you Ryan! I really appreciate it :)
@@THiiXYwhat about bow and arrow for medium and crossbow for heavy or a haroon gun.
@bricktea3645 daaamn now you're talking haha, I'd love that honestly, maybe light has one of those mini pistol crossbows or something haha
i feel like we were in closed alpha just yesterday... the game grew up so fast😭😭 Embark i love you guys so much this is the single most impressive creation in the past 10 years of multiplayer gaming
AND AMAZING COVERAGE! super good video and top production value as always♡♡
Yeah you know this game really taught me how fast time goes, like how is it already Easter too lol. Appreciate you as always lyra and hope you enjoy Season 2 :D
You had me jumping up and down whilst watching this. How awesome is all this!!😊
Ayyy! Yeah it's honestly wild how much stuff will be in this, and I can't wait to see what the community does with idea's and theories (and maybe some traps with the opponents haha)
ok im not the only weirdo
@@THiiXY I saw that recon senses has left the game, is that right??
Yup, poof gone!
Bro honestly my favourite content creator on here
Your such a genuine person who doesn’t bs around , just gives everyone the news your not a nobody your platform is on the rise , trust the process 👌👌
Haha my guy thank you bro honestly these words mean a tonne so you’re just really helping me keeping up with the content, I appreciate you
@@THiiXYdo you know if the season will just drop or will there be downtime ?
everybody is complayining about the pencil skin while i am here like "I CAN BE SPONSORED BY A COMPANY WOOOOW".
nice video as always man we are all here becuase of you doing so good videos...

For what weapon is the pencil skin??

Congrats on the million view, you deserve ithope the best for you with the finals and in whatever you decide to do in the future I’ll keep on watching if you keep this effort and passion for these vids. Thanks ❤😊
Ayy Lop, honestly that means a lot and as I've said in the comments before, it was the motivation on me staying up like 30hrs no sleep to get this vid out! A lot of struggle for an awesome benefit to you guys! :D
Literally taking the day off of school tomorrow to play the new season (and do other things ofc, I’m not a shut-in) but I’m genuinely so excited for this season. Thanks for the updates, you’re my go-to info channel ❤
Ayy that’s cool you managed to get time for launch! Thanks for the kind words, you’re all the reason I do this, hope you enjoy season 2!!!
So used to company’s just drip feeding content, this is so much great stuff I’m real excited. Glad you seem to be having a good time, friend.
Hell yeah I’m enjoying this game a tonne lol, I think that there’s no other game that can hype me as much as THE FINALS! lol
It's really nice to see Embark invite smaller channels like yours to these playtests, I've been following since the beginning. Keep up the good work Thiixy!
Yeah honestly I couldn’t believe it haha! Thank you so much for being awesome and supporting me on OUR journey as a community!
After the Trailer i was so hyped but its even better than i could ever imagen
Yeah once you play it as well it's just really cool, like even small things like the sun and reflections etc, just all adds up
@@THiiXY Its like you said (i think it was you) they are using season 1 like another beta test and the content will come in season two 2
100000%
Really cool to see you growing like this! I can't even begin to imagine what an amazing experience it must have been to be able to play this update this soon, with the devs! Thank you for what you're doing brother. Keep it up.
Thank you man, I only have y’all to thank for the support and giving me the inspiration to keep making videos, I stayed up all night making this one haha
Great video! I was looking for what to expect for season 2 and this is exactly what I was looking for. You earned a sub, cheers mate
My guy thanks for the kind words I appreciate it! Hope you enjoy Season 2
Man, I was smiling from the beginning to the end of the video! Your content is amazing and I'm very excited with the new possibilities! Hugs from Brasil.
Ayyy thank you I really appreciate it! Much love to Brasil would love to see esports thrive there for THE FINALS, because the crowd is just so insane
@@THiiXY that would be amazing! I'll be there screaming my lungs out haha
Amazing vid as always, congrats on the 1M views brother. You deserve every single one and more!!! Much love pls keep going
Thank you so much, honestly I wouldn't have the motivation to do this stuff if it wasn't for y'all supporting me, and I'm going to be pushing out more content as the seasons go on :)
awesome video mate! the 1 mio. views are well deserved, your videos provide so much value, really appreciate it!
Thanks NoMisZx and you're a valued member in our Discord too :)
This is the first vid of yours i watched and it is amazing keep up the great work man!
Ayyy I appreciate it man thank you so much kind words like this keep me motivated to make more vids :)
Bro had me crying im so excited man this game is mt absolute favorite an embark is the studio that is saving the gaming scene in 2024 any games they make i will get
Less goooo! Yeah saving the gaming scene is a great point especially the FPS Genre lol
"I once saw him kill three men at a cashpoint with a pencil. A fucking pencil"
Your character shines through your content, Thiixy, thank you
Thank you! Just pure passion and enjoyment for this game, that I want to share with the WORLD!
this season is my dream atmosphere! i literally said last season that season 2 should be a cyberpunk city map maybe with glitches or something so that’s so crazy. the whole season looks beautiful and has so much variety lol. i love the new gadgets and the new guns seem interesting as well :) can’t wait! also great video and very heartwarming about the 1m view part. i’ve watched you from time to time and very proud of how far you’ve come. congrats! 🎉❤
Ayy thank you so much! Yeah the crazy thing is this game literally matches that vibe so damn perfectly like it’s actually insane, and then on top of that the retro style… ohhh it’s just perfect. Thanks for the kind words and support I appreciate it!
ur my favourite finals yt channel, every video is amazing
Wooooo! Thank you! I always enjoy seeing your comments and profile picture of the lil fox haha :)
@@THiiXY haha thanks
Awesome vid! So hyped for S2 it's unrealll
Also congrats on 1M views, well deserved!
Ayy thank you Omura! I really appreciate your comments and hope you enjoy season 2!
@@THiiXY you too bro!
wow cant wait!!!! i subbed ur cool, btw congrats on 13k
Thank you much!! I think tomorrow is going to be a good day! :)
Great video! Got me hyped up for season 2 been playing since the beta it’s been incredible seeing this game evolve
Ayyyee that’s awesome to hear! I hope you enjoy it of course and thanks for watching!!
Bro...I'm about to drop some serious coin I fear 😂
ahaha yeah understandable :D
Good video fella. New subscriber here. Looking forward to Season 2. I thought it started today but I'll be just as hyped tomorrow after work.
Gonna have a look through your older videos later.
Ayyy thank you so much for subscribing! Welcome to what I call THE PODIUM (our name) and I appreciate you hanging out with my content! Hope you enjoy Season 2 :D
Congrats on the views man! Really looking forward to season 2. Kinda bummed that they took away the motion sensors from lights (light main here), but the gateway looks cracked and will definitely make light more viable and sniping more fun :)
Yeah they moved it to Heavy right? That's a weird one because I don't think Heavy will ever need that really? I don't know but anyways yeah light is definitely more in the rotation now, and I can't wait to see teleporter sniping trickshots haha
@@THiiXY Yeah they moved it to heavy, and I suppose I understand giving light the tracking dart and sonar since it's supposed to be a scout, but I would think the motion sensor would also stay then? The only thing I can think of would be to make sure light didn't take too many gadgets and have too many.
this content is fantastic 👏👌 keep up the great work. love it thanks for the insite.
Ayy much love I appreciate you watching!
Great video man! Love the way you explained the different additions. Extremely hyped for tomorrow 🔥🔥
1000% tomorrow is going to be a great day, and I appreciate it, I think that I could have gone into a bit more depth but I didn't want to really overwhelm the viewer etc, because even me playing I was just so flooded with everything haha
@@THiiXY Nah I think you nailed it! I was gonna make an explainer video tomorrow, but after seeing this I think it's pretty much covered - had me hooked from beginning to end 👌
Thanks for your vids !
Thanks for the great and quick news :D
This game does not miss! Absolutely astounded by this revamp!
Yeah! Honestly it’s crazy they keep raising the bar with their art n trailers mind blown
Be aware that in the test we did with the reshaper, when thiix fires the RPG at me, I was spamming the button. It is very permissive and opens new ways to play medium, which I'm super delighted for :D
Ayy thanks Nykho! Yeah I wasn't sure what you did haha, also you're a cracked player, really enjoyed playing with and against you, would love to get you on my podcast soon to talk about the game after a few weeks! :D
@@THiiXY It would be my pleasure !
I’m so excited to play this update this weekend! Thank you for insight on some of the things I didn’t even know were coming! I hope getting diamond this season will be possible.
Yeah I think a lot of people are going to be pushing for that FCAR skin haha, appreciate you watching and hope you enjoy season 2!
great vid! i vastly underestimated the power of teleport it seems like, can't wait to try it out. light really needed more team-focused utilities and it seems perfect
yeah exactly and I think that this is a great iteration for a step towards having all three comps in that "team" area. Light is definitely closer to that now, so you'll be able to do a LOT
Great movie THiiXY, happy that you like S2.!
love how embark is so communicative with their playerbase
Yeah they’ve improved a lot with this over time as well which is awesome to see :) thanks for watching!
bro, a PENCIL FOR A DAGGER SKIN?!! i had no idea who embark were before the finals but i think im now a fan
Ahaha, John Wick reference for sure :D
I once saw him wipe 2 teams with a pencil. A fkn pencil! Who the f**k can do that!?
ahahaha
very well made video! I appreciate the content, keep it up 🔥🔥
Thank you Tyxse! You know that I appreciate the words as always, I stayed up all night editing this haha
NO WAY THEY ADDED THE TARKOV LEG DESTROYER IN THE FINALS. 100% I WILL GO BACK TO PLAY IT
AHAHA NOT THE KS TO THE LEFT KNEE NOOOOOOOO hahaha
Definitely excited for the release, great vid 🤝
Thank you so much! Yeah I’m hypedddd! :D
Great vid 🙌 def playing all day tmr
Ayyye sounds like a plan haha
absolutely love the purple / retro feel - it's so so clean
Yeah a real nice change up from the red everywhere haha
Just found your channel definitely gonna stick around and can't wait for the new season
Ayy that means a lot, thank you for commenting and I hope you enjoy Season 2!
Great video! Absolutely hyped for season 2 I'm so ready!!!
THANK YOU!! Yeah the hype is sooo real, tomorrow gonna be a great day!
Woaahhh. This is awesome. I love the new bg too
This game might become bigger than anyone expected after seasons like this
Ayy Astriix! thanks for commeting and keep up the videos, can't wait to see what you make in Season 2 :D
Wow I was not expecting a tutorial overhaul. Just when other live service games (apex) give you the bare minimum, Embark says “hold my beer” I hope this gives the new players the experience they need before they’re thrown in the wild.
Tell them to give us a random option for our weapon skins
Much love dude. I got a date tomorrow so I won’t be able to be here on launch, best of luck to your games tomorrow everyone
Ayyy best of luck with your date tomorrow! For sure, I really like the "hold my beer" as you said because it's probably what they do at the office, just see what others are doing, and then put that Embark take on it, which is why we're getting all this stuff. Random option for skins, noted!
That gun skin with the cartridge looks like the Nintendo gun used in duck hunt
I just googled and it doeees haha I love the small references
@@THiiXY yea I thought it was their way of showing respect to past games like the invaders 82 event and the gun
@@THiiXY even the pixelated sword looks like one from Zelda
This looks sick! I'm so excited for the new season! (Also finally found a creator who posts finals content!) Also i really love the concept of the data reshaper even though i think i will find it annoying eventually 😭
Ayy I appreciate the kind words! Yeah the data reshaper is sooo crazy like being able to manipuilate stuff like this in the arena is so fun, and then sometimes you can turn it into something like a gas barrel which helps you back, craazy item
I wasn’t able to complete season 1 battle pass but Im not even sad about it anymore. This battle is looking 100x better than the last one. Will be coping!
Ayyy! Yeah I think Season 2 battlepass is really cool
Yeah they gotta do it like halo infinite and sar and make a vault for previous seasons. No reason not to since it'll give more things for players to buy
They need to make private matches locally hosted asap. Im sure that's going to be a lot of work but it will save them a ton of money in the long run and open up so many customization possibilities.
I think it’s the same as literally running two-three instances of the game, that’s how heavy it is on specs I don’t know the specifics of it but yeah I’m down for an option to host locally
Amazing youtuber, you might think you're a nobody but you bring so much happiness to so many people!!! Including me!! Never stop!
Ayy thank you that means a lot, I think sometimes when I need to do something like stay up all night editing a video, it's you guys that's the motivation to do so :D
Thank's alot for this video!
You're welcome! I hope that this is going to show you a great future coming for THE FINALS!
You're the best, thanks a bunch❤
Thank you! I say it a lot but the kind words are great motivation for me to keep pushing out content for you all :D
hey thiixy it’s eevee i loved the video and congrats at 1mil views
Thanks eevee!! :D hope you enjoy season 2
Hey have u seen those short of that old guy 3 taping a revolver with his fingers in one go, it looks so cool!
Maybe give light something accurate but have that 3tap high recoil for close up damage.
Ohhh it was at a shooting range right? I think I have seen that or he was a world record holder or something haha
banger. great job thiix
Appreciate you! :)
such a clear video on everything added, hyped for s2 !
Thank you! Yeah I can't wait to see what the balance changes are etc too, they've nailed this Season though
Dope video can’t wait for season 2
Appreciate you for watching!
IM SO HYPED FOR SESON 2!
When I first saw data reshaper I immediately thought what if u could time it to change grenades or nukes? Glad to see u can. Also crazy tech with portal
Yeah like I honestly when I first saw it was just like "oh it's just changing some things like barrels or chairs etc" but now when I tested it out, it's just so in depth with that stuff that honestly I think it's wild, and imagine what they make in the future that will continue to develop off of that stuff... craazy
God i love the retro/vaporwave aesthetic of this season. The new map looks gorgeous.
Yeah it's so damn beautiful honestly
7:10 hit boxes aren't changed by skins we know this because the huge fucking alien head has been around forever
hahaa yeah exactly, I only said that because people, you know... found something to complain about ahha
Great video!
Thanks Raptorus!! Appreciate you watching :)
looking forward to that stream man! I'm new to the channel, but your charakter is great man!!
ayyy less goo :D Appreciate it, going to be running some tests etc tonight, might not be the best quality
thanks man love this game👍🏽💕
Thank YOU for being here :D
Can you share the background songs you used in the video, it’s a nice vibe 😎 great video!
Yeah sorry I'll add it in my description now and update you someone did also ask for that, I normally do but was rushed for time and forgot!
Music used (in order);
Really Somebody (Instrumental Version) - Flux Vortex
Prisma - Ben Elson
Red Driver - Ben Elson
My Life in Motion - ELFL
Ultra Orange - Wave Saver
Dark Prince - ELFL
Hold on to the Rope - nothanks
(Thanks for reminding me to update!)
You did a great job
Thank you! I was kinda worried that I made it too quick/boring/long or maybe just too in depth but I think it worked out pretty well
Great video mate!! Question, did the light build got any buffs? is the light pistol still nerfed? keep up the good wor man!
Great question! When I played, I didn't see much changes to the V9S, but I know that they did say theres some balancing things that are going to be announced in the patch notes tomorrow, so we will wait to see what that brings!
@@THiiXY great news! Fuck I wished I could had more time to grind cause that diamond v9s looked stunning, but we have to eat so it is what is hahaha
ohhh man yeah I only JUST got it lol however I do think V9S has the best skins overall, there's so many options
That's so fucking cool, can't wait for tomorrow! Keep up the good work and congrats on the 1M views!!!!!
THANK YOU!! I appreicate you coming back every time supporting me, it's the motivation for me literally spending 30hrs no sleep to get this vid out ahaha
No problem bro! Keep up the grind 🤜@@THiiXY
After playing with a steering wheel and dance pad you are my favorite finals TH-camr
AHAHA #1 dance pad player :D
They did amazing bro it looks sick
Yeah reaallyy worth the time to break it down and show you guys all the stuff coming in S2!
Ive commented this on so many places already but ima keep repeating my joke until somebody laughs (ik you always reply to every comment).
May the only thing exploding in season 2 be the popularity of this game. Not red canisters with c4s into my whole team.
Anyway congrats on your channel milestone! Truely deserved!
Made me smile but also at the same time get PTSD from all the nukes against me haha I appreciate you! Thanks for watching
cant wait to see u in S2 either as a teammate or as an enemy!
Ahaha, hopefully as a teammate! :D
I love this game ❤
new fan im subbing ur awesome
Let's goooo! A new member of THE PODIUM (my name for subscribers) welcome and hope you enjoy your stay here :D
didnt watch full vid yet so idk if they have it, but they should add a movement practice mode or update the practice range to include taller buildings(more than 1), ropes, stairs, you name it.
10:18 "Throughout season 2", not many devs would even touch the private match system until at least 2 seasons later
Yeah I really like that, actually I was going to say something like a parkour mode would go haard
I love that it took 1 season for The Finals to add private matches and Apex Legends took 3 years.
LOL yeah when you break it down like that, it's kinda mad how fast they take action
Great update, I loved everything but the defibrillator change. It just looked so clean before, hopefully they change it back in the next season.
Yeah I know they did it to combat the spam healing, I didn’t use it that much so I can’t comment but visually it looks cool
Hey! I subscribed, this video format is very followable, and I loved it. What microphone do you use it sounds very nice.
Ayy thank you! I use the Blue Snowball because I can't really afford anything else right now to improve it so I have to do a lot of post-editing to make it sound a little better, like EQ etc etc :)
@@THiiXYwell it sounds great. Also, how do you make your thumbnails. Sorry for all the questions, I’m a new creator so I’m tryna figure stuff out.
I use Photoshop and thumbnails I spend a lot of time on, probably too much time so honestly if you're just starting out, make a bad first draft, because that first draft, you know that you can ONLY improve it from that point. Have fun doing it really and don't take it too seriously! :D all the best
I'm hoping that LTMs get added to private matches as presets because solo bank it would be cool. And even load out/class presets like steal the spotlight's heavy only preset
Ohhh that would be a really cool idea yeah I can see what you’re saying, because then people could also eventually create loadouts that we can only play haha
@THiiXY *Melee Madness* and *Throwable Frenzy* are two ideas boiling in my mind. The former is melee weapons and smoke/gas, the latter is specifically light with dagger/knives/sword and grenades/remote explosives for nukes.
congrat about your 1M views keep going :)
Thank you ponza! It's not my congrats is our congrats as a community :D
Do you know if there is orher gun/item patch notes rolling out for this season? Also, do you stream on here or twitch?
I stream on TH-cam! :) and I think patch notes are tomorrow yes
Very nice!
The one thing i really want is the private matches to have 1v1. who has six friends who are gamers?? lol
Trueee haha, like I said for now it’s 6 because of costs but I don’t write out they will lower it
u just earned a sub jit
Thank you for subscribing and welcome to THE PODIUM! (It’s what I call my community haha)
love ur content pls Keep going
Ayy and I will thanks to awesome people like you coming back supporting me as a creator! :D
Omg I was thinking we should get sponsorship and have contracts for sponsors, this is gonna make the lore so fun to unlock gear
Yeah it’s a really cool feature, I love it
The new map looks so chill aF....so nice.
Yeah it’s such a vibe, a parkour variant or game mode of this map and some music would be insane
You have got to be the #1 finals creator
Haha naaah I don’t think so I’m still some distance from that I think there’s many really good creators :)
Yeah but you're the only creator that explains the game in the way you do. Like an immersive breakdown. Its absolutely amazing
dude this season is gona be crazy
Wiiiildd, and we’re here for it! :)
I’m excited for Power Shift because that’s more my style. Cause I just want to fight & a King of the Hill mode lets me do that. Quick Cash is fun tho
THiiXY im going to be completely honest, within the finals community you are the goat, no kidding, so you have a twitch?
Ayy honestly that's a crazy title, I think there's other great creators out there but your words are the inspiration for me staying up 30hrs to get this vid out haha. I don't have Twitch currently, only TH-cam atm!
@@THiiXY ah okok, but for real, other creators do well, it is just not to the same scale, like you made a mapping over the maps in the game, from scratch, just to teach people how to pewpew more efficiently, your quality of content is just higher, and you post frequently, but get some sleep in man, 30 hours is a looong time.
I'm excited for the future of this game! We're only in the beginning stages
EXACTLY! In Season 1 people thought that it was end game, and nothing will improve, and I mean just from this stuff, you can see that they have the cards and are playing it so well.
@@THiiXY There's only up from here! Can't wait! 😄
Think the best option for the hud is making it see through/completely disappear when looking at it/towards it, also just make the damn things smaller
Trueee that’s also another good take yeah, honestly anything over the flooded hud right now
Yay you get to play it early but meanwhile im here waiting on launch day and its not out yet
I don’t think it was meant to be out until later on Thursday, I think that timer was just saying when Season 1 ended
