I've been ejoying so much of this game, its so refreshing to have a game with a gunplay so good where most of the weapons are also good and reliable and on top of that all the maps are pretty well done and fun and no sbmm its just the cherry on top, hope this game lives on for a couple of months!
Handler I did some testing, and the SVD with Cleaner Incendiary Rounds is a 1 tap to the head from the first tick of burn out to 40m, and at like 50m it takes l think 2-3 ticks. The revolver is a 1 tap to burn within 9m. Only exception is if they're a Phantom (+20 Max HP) and if they get healed immediately
Hi Handler, did you ever play CoD4 Promod back in the day? Your play style and the game’s high TTK and gunplay remind me of that era of FPS. I love the XDefiant videos-your 1HP clips (especially in this video) are very entertaining. :)
good shit as always, really enjoying the xdefiant vids. you dug into the LMGs yet? the M249 is kinda fuckin insane (excellent dmg/headshot multiplier, huge mag, surprising mobility for such a heavy gun)
They already are. Mostly using the cleaners fire bullets with other factions, or using the echelon vision goggles with the cleaners. I've seen it so many times already where dudes will be Echelon with a purifier ultra or a cleaner with the Echelon ultra. I stumbled upon a reddit that sells cheats that basically let's you mix and match whatever faction you want and whatever ability and ultra you want. So stupid!
@@shusakudake You are just getting lucky cause most players know the game already has more cheaters than COD mp ATM. Mainly due to the game being free to play.
@@nickxenix it does not, so if your opponents are listening for you it still has a benefit. It just seems a bit redundant with the intel suit as well because you’ll always see them coming
Handler, unsure if this comment will reach you, but I am also on a Wooting 60HE and I seem to have weird input issues with scroll wheel jumping and then pressing spacebar to jump; it takes a 2nd spacebar input to jump after scroll wheel jump. I would love to know if you experience the same or other strange input issues with this game, your mouse, and Wooting; also possibly an updated settings video or just an overview of them at the beginning/end of one of your next XDefiant uploads. Amazing content, excellent music choice, and thank you for a reply if this comment does reach you.
Ahahahahaha I've been playing almost this exact class (Echelon/Intel/Vector) for the past few days (though with a long 686 instead of the Deagle) and it's just nutty how fun it is. Your tracking is just so insanely smooth when you're locked in, such a pleasure to watch.
The reserve ammo feels a bit funky in this game. It feels weird there is reserve ammo without a character that can replenish it. Feels like a way to just stop people going on crazy streaks.
Well you usually only get it once a game and you're still pretty easy to kill, it really ain't that bad. People gloss over the fact that it fits in with the other ultimates, like Libertad for example; you can tank an insane amount of damage with her ult
I wasn’t excited about this game until very recently. With the onslaught of extraction shooters coming out, I’m more happy for regular TDM or battle royale shooters again. Just can’t get on the extraction shooter hype train
Can’t wait for you to hit Level 25 and get out of the newbie playlist mate😂 That’s where the real tryhards are~not these babies you’re playing with😂 Great stuff though!
Saw myself in one of your vids on cod. Was a good game but it was right when you changed the name to shining shotgun so I didn’t know who I was in the game with. Thought there was a cheater at first lol
I had a lot of fun incendiary shotgunning people in this game. However, I don't have much time to play video games recently and the amount of grinding in this game feels a little too much
If you want to have a hilariously good time. Get 3-6 ftiends into your lobby and all run this operator. You have unlimited wall hacks the entire game and can prefire everyone
Everyone is sleeping on the vector. I got my mp7 to gold and I love it, but damn I got my only 80+ kill game using the vector. I've come close with my mp7 but the vector is insane!
Shame the netcode killed this game for me at the moment, the difference in how fast handler kills people and how consistent it is vs a lot of other peoples experience is just...amazing.
Le game is fun for sure. I'd even happily pay 60 dollars for it if it had better sound design (all the guns sound like staplers), more maps nd more guns. The movement also feels a lil clunky
@@HandlerYT I think the movement should be a skill gap. The game has always been a movement shooter ever since the beta (or so I’ve heard. I never played the beta). But the ppl complaining should just get better or adapt
The wall hacks character is easily the most annoying/cheap I’ve played for 12 hours now and only 30 minutes with him because it just doesn’t feel fun to me like you don’t even have to really try to do good with him. I’ll stick to my healer and spider bot character😂
No SBMM is truely the best feature. If they fix their connection issues and add a one life mode, this will be a banger of a game
Dude absolutely, they have a good thing going with the game design and everything. Once they fix these issues it’ll be super nice.
SnD is confirmed coming soon
@@BrandonZX6R imagine if they blend this with the Finals
@@Ronbotnik amazing. Super stoked on that!
i never had a connection issue
My friend told me when I downloaded the game, echelon is wall hacks with a one shot pistol, I have not used another faction since playing
i personally love libertad and ulting on a hard point with it usually ends up with a 5 piece mcnugget

@@ysmmac6015yea their def my 2nd and during beta main
Definitely digging the xdefiant vids, hope you’ll keep uploading them❤
heck yeah hope to see more of this game on your channel
I've been ejoying so much of this game, its so refreshing to have a game with a gunplay so good where most of the weapons are also good and reliable and on top of that all the maps are pretty well done and fun and no sbmm its just the cherry on top, hope this game lives on for a couple of months!
I've been loving xDefiant too, looking forward to their take on SnD.
I already know that the pro scene is gonna be awesome in this game.
i cant be the only one that feels like bullet dont hit half the time even if youre on target
Poor netcode
True it’s noticeable hopefully they fix it soon
yeah its bad, I sometimes die behind cover too.
It has worse net code than BF4 did on launch.
Love your videos, this game looks very fun
XDefiant videos give me the same vibes aa when you played mw19 ❤
You are an absolute savage at every game you play it’s wild. GG
Way more chaotic and higher skill gameplay. Glad you decided to play xdefiant. Keep it up!
Was just about to go to sleep when you uploaded :)
Dude same
AK is crazy great, first weapon I've unlocked every attachment for. Finally, some good AK representation in video games haha
Confirmed one life mode coming soon btw!!! Absolutely loving this game and love seeing the GOAT shred in it! ❤

Just now getting into electronic music so hearing it in the background of the gameplay was a nice little cherry on top :D
M16 gameplay would fit your snappy playstyle perfectly
Nah see I been watching you for a few years now and usually don't comment. IMMA NEED YOU TO CHILLAX WITH THE ECHOLON PISTOL. Nasty work Handler Wick.
Searched Handler watched recent upload and just seen he uploaded again
Haven’t played cod since installing this game. Definitely a banger
Man oh man these abilities need balancing 😂

Bruh, first clip, insane. That shit aint easy 🔥
Hey at least people will be less inclined to cheat if it’s built into the game. That’s some brilliant game design!

@@LiveTUNA crazy but hey every game has cheaters
@@paulfrompayrollNot as rampant one day one as this game.
@@uhohitsatrap9989this game has less cheaters than the last 10 games i player last game was finals (didnt have even 1 rage cheater in xdefiant)

Good news handler, data miners have discovered S&D is coming
That PC movement wild. 😂😂
thats not normal?
@@Melass98it is he’s just can snap better with mnk
@@Melass98 looking down to dodge, while air strafing in a different direction? No thats not normal.
We're back to hating MnK again?
@@MegaWaterboy11 Never stopped.
the vector is the best gun in
10:51 Handler after massacring teams several times in a row " The AK's not bad 👀 "
FYI you don’t need suppressor on echelon, their passive is they don’t appear on minimap
Does it also make it so that the enemies can't physically hear the gunshots?
@@nickxenix it does not, so if your opponents are listening for you it still has a benefit. It just seems a bit redundant with the intel suit as well because you’ll always see them coming
@@TheDeviantStrain Them not knowing about your location is an advantage.
Didnt know that :o
Can't wait for this game to get SnD and watch you play the mode. Man is this game fun, been having a blast with it without the stress of sbmm.
Handler still putting out heat on a holiday 🔥
Do you think you would play more of this than COD if they added snd?
The Legend of Handler.
Handler, unsure if this comment will reach you, but I am also on a Wooting 60HE and I seem to have weird input issues with scroll wheel jumping and then pressing spacebar to jump; it takes a 2nd spacebar input to jump after scroll wheel jump.

Amazing content, excellent music choice, and thank you for a reply if this comment does reach you.
such intense gameplay! i love it
finally some MNK content
I really hope you upload more XD content.
This game looks so fun when you're not fighting seal team 6 on asian servers
hey handler, what mouse do you use? is there one in particular that you rely on for gaming? nice shots/ content btw!!
I use a Finalmouse ULX. Hard to get your hands on one, but mice are all personal preference! I just prefer lighter mice.
I appreciate it :)
Try the M16 next brother, keep up the great content and take care.
Echelon is one of my favorite factions. Right next to Phantoms and Libertad.
It's fine for objection based games which is what most of the modes are at least. Gives you an advantage to hold the point
Having a lot of fun with this game so far
Bro went off in the first 50 seconds... Love me some handy
Handler is playing like his life is on the line lol
Absolutely dialed in already
Ahahahahaha I've been playing almost this exact class (Echelon/Intel/Vector) for the past few days (though with a long 686 instead of the Deagle) and it's just nutty how fun it is.

Handler, SnD is confirmed for season 1
Fourth Echelon? Loved the content!
no hate on the gameplay but the devs gotta get rid of this its to powerful.

@@jezoboii Mate... its the wallhack active cooldown, not the ultimate thats overpowered
I wasn’t excited about this game until very recently. With the onslaught of extraction shooters coming out, I’m more happy for regular TDM or battle royale shooters again. Just can’t get on the extraction shooter hype train
hoping XDefiant gets a one life gamemode sometime.
The hit reg in this game is so bizarre.
Handler you have to try the shotgun on that small arena type map its actually insane
Shining shotgun in XDefiant?
i really loved the part when bbbbrrrrrrrrrrrr
Bro you gained so much subs in a small period of time. I remember you had like 80k not long ago 😭
The one is basically hard point
They need to do a legal poop gun
can we all just talk abt his aim for a sec holy damn
Can’t wait for you to hit Level 25 and get out of the newbie playlist mate😂
That’s where the real tryhards are~not these babies you’re playing with😂
Great stuff though!
2:36 Handler became a robot man, like that´s actually cheat level aim
So, im very interested to know Hamdlers take on this game. Do you believe this game is truly going to be the Call Of Duty Killer?
Does this game have zero recoil? Can’t wait to play, looks like I don’t even have to ads bullet spread is tight
Saw myself in one of your vids on cod. Was a good game but it was right when you changed the name to shining shotgun so I didn’t know who I was in the game with. Thought there was a cheater at first lol
I had a lot of fun incendiary shotgunning people in this game. However, I don't have much time to play video games recently and the amount of grinding in this game feels a little too much
I’m telling you I play in the same style as you and I use the P90, 50 round mag is insane.
Isn't a silencer with the Echelon passive kind of redundant?
Hopefully next update they fix hitboxes
Does ads feel a bit off on M&K for anyone else?
If you want to have a hilariously good time. Get 3-6 ftiends into your lobby and all run this operator. You have unlimited wall hacks the entire game and can prefire everyone
Judging by the score of every gameplay Handler never plays objective.
Everyone is sleeping on the vector. I got my mp7 to gold and I love it, but damn I got my only 80+ kill game using the vector. I've come close with my mp7 but the vector is insane!
I can’t find myself using anyone else the intel suit for me just can’t be beat. Was using the healing bio vida. Still think the walls are so strong
after a match with 90% of my deaths being with people using that wall hacks I honestly decided to stop playing this game
That looks ridiculously broken
6:07 What in the rizzkibidy
Shame the netcode killed this game for me at the moment, the difference in how fast handler kills people and how consistent it is vs a lot of other peoples experience is just...amazing.
I haven't had any connection issues at all in game. Cod seems worse tbb
Don’t be stuck only on Dom the other modes are fun too just gotta give em a try
what a beast
Have you tried tac fps games like cs or Val?
Le game is fun for sure. I'd even happily pay 60 dollars for it if it had better sound design (all the guns sound like staplers), more maps nd more guns. The movement also feels a lil clunky
Will you play Apex again since there’s solos 😞
Handler what’s your option on the movement on this game?
I think it's fine tbh. I never had an issue with it during the betas/playtests.
@@HandlerYT yeah I like the movement that’s currently in the game but they might nwrf it cuz these cod shitters can’t aim in a MOVEMENT SHOOTER BTW
@@HandlerYT I think the movement should be a skill gap. The game has always been a movement shooter ever since the beta (or so I’ve heard. I never played the beta). But the ppl complaining should just get better or adapt
Im starting to think now maybe i should use the deagle
What your in game sens/dpi
That xray vision is busted
How can they hit so many marks right yet then fuck up by adding wall hacks?
do u rep the raptors handler?
What a sigma
when this game gets SND im choosing it over COD
My aim is pretty good on cod but this game my aim is dog dookie lol I’m trying to figure out if it’s the settings or if I just stink.
Soooo where is the recoil for the AK at???.. lol, clearly we saw it being at lvl 2 and I know it has a lot of recoil when I use it (I’m also on PC)
I hate to break it to you. But there is hardly any recoil in this game.
The wall hacks character is easily the most annoying/cheap I’ve played for 12 hours now and only 30 minutes with him because it just doesn’t feel fun to me like you don’t even have to really try to do good with him. I’ll stick to my healer and spider bot character😂
Shame that it is a Ubisoft game, but hey, i'll be here to watch you.
Activision must hate seeing CoD people play this ehehehehe
No skill base match making? Maybe i am heading to give a try over xdifiant
i am not sure about this
Wall hacks and vector? Sounds like an ez life
