There is a lot of popular games, and this is not popular because space games always flop in going popular.. i lived it with battlefield and all space games.
"Who would shoot someone mid-emote?" That reminded me of long ago when I was playing the original Tribes. It was on a modded server that had more powerful weapons. I was scouting way back on a mountain overlooking the enemy base as a sniper and I spotted a guy doing a dance emote in an elevated structure with a bunch of others surrounding him and watching. He was in the big heavy armor and looked ridiculous. I dropped him with a headshot and the others stepped back like they were in shock, looked around and flew out in all directions. It was like poking a hornets nest. I skied the hell outta there. Good times.
I'll forever miss the original Cycle, but this version does so much that's just really cool and genius. Man, am I happy they kept the original soundtrack. I love that tune to death.
@@zvonimirpapac5738 if you were in the alpha testing for the first game I think you can just download it. That is what happened with me, on Epic, last Beta. You can get a key for this beta by watching 2 hours of a random person streaming The Cycle on Twitch though.
Solo has been okay for me just have to stay very aware and know where high traffic areas are I usually stick to the edge of map when to get to the different places I need to go
I remember first jumping onto this game in summer 2019, I really enjoyed it. I didn't pick it up again for nine months or so. Crazy to see how far along it has come, I might just have to start playing again.
I played this one year ago and it just felt like another battle royale with some tarkov elements in it but now i see everyone is praising it imma give it a shot
@@lorsmephisto5222 Originality isn't equal to fun, so it doesn't matter. What usually gets made is what's actually fun, not what is original. There are probably thousands of small indie games that do unique things, but almost no one will ever touch them, even if they know of them. For example in one game the goal is to just wait however long it was, a year maybe. You can explore the place and such, but much of the time will be spent elsewhere in your life until something changes after a year in the game. What part of that is fun? It's original, maybe. In order to know it's original, I'd have to know every single video game.
I haven't played the Cycle in a while but the one thing I realised I've missed was the music. Literally clicking on the video and hearing that theme again was so good!
I was actually a bit excited about playing The Cycle when it was first shown as a mainly PvE game with PvP elements. But, now it's all focus on PvP really, as far as I can see, though I haven't played much. I kinda wish it didn't change...
My first interaction with people in this game was me saying “I was interested in finding a a good Tarkov clone” and I lost my faith in humanity when the guy told me “What are you talking about this game is nothing like Tarkov.”
It has been a blast seeing you and the bois playing this! I actually got into the early beta months ago because of your first video when it changed to this loot and extract style, and I've had a ton of fun!
Gunplay in the game still needs a lot of work imo, that was my biggest turn-off. The hit reg seems very finicky and the recoil seems to be purely random "popcorn" style, making a lot of gunfights feel like more luck than skill.
FYI, you should read what happened with 343 and Halo Infinite, they changed what game they were developing like 5 times in the course of just aa few years with even more lead designers and project managers resigning and signing on. It's a miracle that Halo Infinite is as good as it is, has no business being that good with the shitshow development hell it went through.
i played the cycle in 2020 and it was wonderfull. i remember the epic song when the storm came and the adrenaline of being constantly unted. but now is more an exploring game. i downloaded it once again after leaving it and the change i know is for good but i really prefer the og version. i can belive it but it gives me nostalgia when the corona started and i didnt have to worry about anything and just, play...
I was an OG, played this when it was early access in 2019 when no one played. I forgot about the game and haven't played it until recently when it gained popularity, really cool to see a game come so far.
im pretty obsessed with this style of game. Tarkov has been my fav for years. I also love hunt: Showdown, the Cycle:frontier, and Marauders. Can't wait to play again.
I feel like I’m listening to three English politicians 😂 all wearing suits and drinking tea. All in all I love this channel, very glad to have found it
had some major bugs like dying for no reason and trying to organise a party. We also get a bug fairly regularly were a member of the party doesnt have the blue sillhouette so can get confusing/be a cause for friendly fire if you're not careful. but really enjoying the game.
The geyser thing actually might be a bug. Where if you land on someone in midair the game thinks you've already landed on the ground, and then takes away the fall damage invulnerability. You should report that as a bug.
Hey Jack! I played the closed beta 2 of this game because of your vids I loved the idea of a more casual space tarkov style game. Just curious if you had any plans on playing it again since it’s full release now? I’ve been playing it a lot it’s the first game since warzone I’ve really wanted to play.
I miss you Cycle, one of the most unique experiences I ever had especially with a free game :(
same!!!!
Jack: this game is high risks
Also jack: *Starts mining a monster*
we want this game back
It’s nice to see popular games that aren’t made by huge AAA companies
Better than fifa
There is a lot of popular games, and this is not popular because space games always flop in going popular.. i lived it with battlefield and all space games.
I feel like lately, if it is a big AAA game, its just gonna let you down
AM I A GOATED GAMER? 🥺🐐
@@dertythegrower battlefield is a space game?
This aged like fine milk
This game is absolutely amazing now. A blast with friends and tense to play by yourself
Is this game released yet?
@@blipblop1112 nah, beta is open until 4th of april
You should've tried it before, when it was a more brilliant PVEVP-Quest-Looter-Shooter.
How do you get access for the game?
@@traviswells6938 Beta has been extended until 19th April
This is what Anthem should have been but with flying, it looks amazing and so different to the normal dribble we are use to!
Don’t, it still hurts man 😫
What happened to that game? It looked amazing when the trailers came out, why did it become such a let down?
@@highoncoffee5 it’s long story there’s some good vids on TH-cam explaining
@@highoncoffee5 no content and lack of loot problems.
Such a gem.
I still have some chill fun with Anthem. Mindless killing a dozen enemies and flying around. I just play for some casual fun for an hourish.
it is amazing how a game loved by so many people is just gone and there is nothing that can be done about it. Miss the game so much
I MISS THIS GAME SO MUCHHHH
I already love how breaking the rocks gradually reveals the valuable minerals.

Tribes is a game that I feel needs a resurgence.
Just stopped playing and opened TH-cam to chill down for the night and this is on my front page... Noice. Keep up the good work Jack

If you played the Cycle before, can you play this now before release or u have to wait?

@@BengalCatChilli I requested access on Steam a while back and got an email within a week.
@@thatdarnskag5043 Same, I got one within hours of my request on a Saturday
Yes Jack! so glad you're playing this. It is one of my favourite games in a long time.
I really miss that game. It was actually my fav game, and the game i have the most hours on steam until this day.
can't believe this game died and had its servers shut down, such a tragedy. Loved this game.
Love the gun sounds, they feel powerful. Looks like a really fun time with friends, I wonder if it's fun solo too?
EDIT: I'm not having fun solo
Yeah solo sucks, I always try to avoid players when I'm alone
Solo has been okay for me just have to stay very aware and know where high traffic areas are I usually stick to the edge of map when to get to the different places I need to go
Solo is a great challange, just think its too strong that you can see your teammates through walls
@@lemonjoe8482 I think it fits good in this game it makes it more appealing to people who start away from how hardcore tarkov is
this edit is perfect

Jack I've been watching since bf3 . I am saddened by battlefields decay
missing this so hard :(
I played this one year ago and it just felt like another battle royale with some tarkov elements in it but now i see everyone is praising it imma give it a shot
AM I A GOATED GAMER? 🥺🐐
Ikr did they re-release?
I was a battleroyale, they reworked the entire core gameplay to make it more of a tarkov style experience and honestly it's way better this way
I just wish people would make more original games than shooters. There are like 50 other games just like this and jackfrags has reviewed most of them.

Nothing filled the void this game left so far... maybe marathon can do it.
Nice to see you give this game a look out. Been watching some gameplay these past few weeks.
I haven't played the Cycle in a while but the one thing I realised I've missed was the music. Literally clicking on the video and hearing that theme again was so good!
And now this game is officially closing 😭
Give it back to us!
literally playing as this video came out.. so good!
The osts in this game are so good
I was actually a bit excited about playing The Cycle when it was first shown as a mainly PvE game with PvP elements. But, now it's all focus on PvP really, as far as I can see, though I haven't played much.
I kinda wish it didn't change...
I played this like 2 years ago and it was so different and it looks so much better now
oh wow, i got this game when it first released but didnt really know what to do and stopped playing, but it seems more finished now!
You should try the game again, at lost has changed and its getting a lot better
My first interaction with people in this game was me saying “I was interested in finding a a good Tarkov clone” and I lost my faith in humanity when the guy told me “What are you talking about this game is nothing like Tarkov.”
It's basically a easier less crammed version of tarkov and I love it.
From the intro alone, it definitly looks different. Looks smoother, more complete, I might hop back in because of this.
It has been a blast seeing you and the bois playing this! I actually got into the early beta months ago because of your first video when it changed to this loot and extract style, and I've had a ton of fun!
this game was so good
“Was” 😢😢

Yea it looks really clunky in a back for blood kinda way.
Id say I agree but having no experience with the game I hopped in today and absolutely annihilated everyone I saw.
Had the same feel about the recoil until i realised the recoil on the guns have their own consistent pattern. Just like in cs :)
I always appreciate you bringing the variety.
I remember coming across this game years ago and completely forgot about it. This game has come so far from what it originally set out to be
The vibe this game gives is like No Man's sky but hardcore, and you lost your spaceship.
cool looking game, those meteors coming in looked awesome
the game feels so atmospheric and manages to keep its theme entact, def going to keep up with this game
Games like this make it hard to think halo infinite took 4 years to develop with half a billion.

Seriously love you Jack 🙌❤️ You, Tomo & Stodeh are awesome to watch, so funny! 😎 Thank you for amazing content!

yep the second beta was the best setup easily. i dont know why they decided to ruin it
It looks way more interesting now.
And abrupt ending Jack! Would love to see more. Tomo you and chilled out stod. Great job 👍🏼
Great vid Jack!
"it's a lil' Pokemon here" you're hilarious
This new Minecraft DLC looks awesome!
I was an OG, played this when it was early access in 2019 when no one played. I forgot about the game and haven't played it until recently when it gained popularity, really cool to see a game come so far.
Tom persuading Jack that you don't take damage from the Geyser and then immediately takes damage HAHA
This is what games need: A diverse, cool map.
This game looks absolutely amazing
I wish we could bring criminal charges against everyone who cheated in this game and made the devs shut it down.
When you got bumped on the little geyser I was cracking up
Great teamwork that was fun to watch.
My only annoyance is constantly being teamed by groups of 2/3 as a solo
im pretty obsessed with this style of game. Tarkov has been my fav for years. I also love hunt: Showdown, the Cycle:frontier, and Marauders. Can't wait to play again.

Used to be a lot more light, I wonder how raising the stakes improves things.
Wow, it's really changed! Looks great.
one of the best games I've ever played, I miss it
Damn, bring this game back !
aaaand it's dead.
😂
Oh snap I forgot about this game. Anxious to give it a try.
The game looks amazing, I remember when I played it in its alpha/beta phase, it's changed so much!
This game has got me excited. I can't wait for June 8th for more
and that's how Tom was never heard from again kids.
Is there a campaign/single player mode in this game ?
Or this game is multiplayer only (PVP) ?
This game is hard af, some of them creatures are too OP
7:20 Tom: Watch me I won’t take any damage from this
Jack: *decides to join*
“Wee”
*takes damage*
is there another star citizen video coming soon? really enjoyed the last two :D
Wow. Can't believe this is what The Cycle became. Nice to see they changed it up
had some major bugs like dying for no reason and trying to organise a party. We also get a bug fairly regularly were a member of the party doesnt have the blue sillhouette so can get confusing/be a cause for friendly fire if you're not careful. but really enjoying the game.
ROFL when Tom dies to Jeff and the boys just start pissing themselves laughing hahahaha :D
This was the one of the greatest game I’ve played. Im so sad and hangry about it closing because of Cheaters. F…k all of them
Never heard jacksay "we should dip" before
The atmosphere in this game is insane!
One of the few games out there (games made with love)
Don't stab the Pikmin Jack!
BTW your voice always makes me think of a young Chris Moyles ;)
Love this!! Any content with tomo and stod is awesome!! I want to see stod and tomo team with you on hunt showdown!!!!
amazing game! just started a few weeks ago. loving it
is it going to be free to play after the release
Map design is amazing
Correction, hunt showdown is the best game you're not playing. Love your videos Jack
This is foooken awesome
Are there any co-op games like this that aren’t permadeath?
What’s the song at 0:35?
I think they're called lungs with eyes... I want to catch one and keep it as a pet though... @3:30
the whole video was like: does this damage you?
8:07 Wow the youtube compression really doesn't like that darkness/lighting
You guys are awesome and funny 😄
Ooo I need to try it again
The geyser thing actually might be a bug. Where if you land on someone in midair the game thinks you've already landed on the ground, and then takes away the fall damage invulnerability. You should report that as a bug.
there's always a tom in every team
I remember playing a version of this years ago at gamescom

Just curious if you had any plans on playing it again since it’s full release now? I’ve been playing it a lot it’s the first game since warzone I’ve really wanted to play.
this is literally tarkov+no mans sky
I tried to get into this game but people were camping areas where you drop into the map and that was insanely frustrating.
