Just a heads up those points in the ubi store have been around for ages and can be earned through challenges in many of there games and usually can get you some small bonus stuff in games like assassins creed games or rainbow 6 siege
real. Cod, fortnite, apex, tarkov, OW all are struggling to keep my attention and have grown stale in many ways. really excited to try something new and fresh
The “units” currency is actually usually really easy to earn its just in game challenges. Ive earned a ton of them just playing assassins creed games and cloud playing some of their other old games on game pass
Cant wait anymore. When ever people talk avout COD they talk about the problems. Packet burst, SBMM, HD space, insane bundle prices etc. F@k Call of Duty. Best thing I ever did was to uninstall that mental decay of a game. COD is not a game, it’s a shop simulator with a shooter add-on. Go Xdefiant! We know it wont be perfect. But if the community is patient and understanding it can be a hit.
Just deleted CoD to make room for XDefiant. Not that it seems like it needs room just being 35 gbs. Lol. I'm liking the look for this preseason launch. The grind is on boys. Just please play the objectives.
@@liamchapman6889it’s a free game, that’s why. They’re focusing more on the actual game play instead of marketing it like cod does. Every year call of duty spends millions on ads; and then releases an unfinished game. In actual happy they’re not putting ads everywhere. It means they’re working on making the game perfect for launch, ofc every game has bugs but i have high hopes for them.
You can play other new Ubisoft titles and complete those challenges to get the coins for your Ubisoft acc, the main ones at the moment are rainbow 6 and ghost recon breakpoint
the credit balance you mentioned in the uplay game store around 3:28 has been a ubisoft thing for years, it has you do missions for the games they put out and then you earn points to spend on simple things to help you in the game sometimes or however you see fit in most cases
The Ubisoft units system has existed for time now. It's gone through many iterations but I know that back in the day with the old Assassin's Creed games, you could save up these points just by playing and completing the game. You could then spend these in the store and get a special outfit for Ezio or something along those lines. Not sure if you're able to outright buy them nowadays like COD Points but that's basically the gist of them.
One thing I want and hope they put effort into is the skins if they make the skins like cod mobile this shit could be fire af and I feel like a lot of people will actually stay and play
I really hope this is good 🤞I've played Cod from the beginning and I'm tired now I need some excitement in my life at weekends hopefully this brings the squad out of retirement
I haven’t touched COD since Xmas time and haven’t loved it the last few years and have only lasted a couple months after each launch. I miss playing a good shooter online - hoping I love this.
Ubisoft always had units as a currency and it is for all ubisoft games. Complete core challenges give units, and then you spend units on in game items/digital content. And it is for all ubisoft games. Some stuff is free some cost units. It always existed in ubisoft connect.
Reason COD has 200-300gbs of downloads needed is because devs don’t want you to play any other games on your console, only cod and to spend money in its shop
Units are Ubisoft points. I recently got into Watch Dogs: Legion, and I would just sort of passively accrue units and be able to redeem them for various cosmetic awards. It was kinda cool, though it didn't always work. There were a few rewards that just never actually appeared in my inventory in-game. Hopefully xDefiant will avoid that.
@@lalter_MW2019 had the potential to be a top tier cod. Best recoil system & movement. They just hurt it with super large complex map design & SBMM. 2v2 Gunfight was goated tho
@@CornFed_3 2v2 Gunfight was the best comp mode they’ve released in years. At least that version of it. Cold wars wasn’t nearly as good. The engine itself they used on MW2019 was amazing in terms of animations & graphical Improvements. The Predictive recoil system was great so that way you could get familiar with each weapons unique recoil pattern. Where the game failed was at creative design. The maps were way too big with too many lines of sight. The 725 was broken for so long. If I remember Ghost didn’t work properly. Lots of head glitch spots since they introduced mounting. Too many doors. The game had potential tho
@@lalter_ it was actually that, but at that time i was under the impression that infinity ward was trying their best to make things right and go back to the good old days. Then everything crumbled after i got the game.
I find it super weird that they are releasing the game on a Tuesday and not a weekend when everyone is off? You would think they would want as much people as possible on their game.
I've not properly played a FPS since Cod 4 remastered. Considering giving this a go given the pedigree behind it, however, a little on the fence. Kind of looks like a black ops 3/future warfare setting, which I'm not massively keen on - if they'd of pulled it back in line with current time, or same era as COD 4 I'd of been straight on this, perhaps it's just rose tinted glasses that gives me this outlook.
Hoping this game will be somewhat decent. Getting pretty tired of playing The Finals all the time, so it would be nice to have 2 shooter games to go back and forth between
Im hype yet seriously concerned at the same time because of all the play tests I've played have been so bad hit reg and net code and all the shit that makes it feel like ass im concerned it's still there. it was there at the server test. i pray its butter smooth on release
@@MrAjking808 Uhmm I'm one of those skilled players lmao Tbh SBMM never bothered me but I hear how bad it is. So I'm curious if maybe it's better without it.?.? Guess I'll find out 😅
Idk about anyone else, but since a year ago I've not seen ANY marketing on this game whatsoever, which is why I've not been hyped for the game at all. This trailer is the first bit of marketing I've seen in over a year which is crazy to me
me and my buddy got on mw3 after a long day of work yesterday. we can keep up on days off but cod sbmm ruins it when we wanna relax. i will switch games
I really hope they can nail progression and prestige, everything else seems at least good to great to me. Good amount of content, perfect update cadence, (6 weeks per season) NO SBMM. I was also pleasantly surprised just how different it was from cod when I played the beta, I thought it would be just a clunkier version of cod but it actually did a great job of being different and unique. So much potential with this game, devs just need to hone in on what makes the game special and it can definitely co exist with games like COD.
Havent bought a CoD game since Cold War,and I only played that for a month. So..while I wasnt crazy about the first beta,well,I only played a handful of games..I am interested when the full game launches. Im defo rusty now for playing a MP online shooter,so hopefully it will still be fun easing into it after all this time. Will it feel more like old CoD,will we make new friends,create rivalries..since we have no disbanding lobbies… maybe yeah 😊. Will it defo have prestige mode? Even after season 0? I hope so. This game might get me back playing a MP online shooter..it just might..as long as some of my old online clan mates and buddies are going to give it a shot as well.. maybe we can get that old CoD feeling back..maybe..please oh please let it be so ☺️ Oh,and being free to play,dont even.need gamepass or PS+ to play it. Even better.
One of the reason the cod file size is so bloated is from the sheer volume of cosmetics the game has. The 4K textured and high quality sound files are likely what makes up a VAST majority of the size
I'm going to wait for a post launch review of the game. A few weeks ago when they had another play test you said that the game still had d sync and lag issues. If the experience is anything like Call of duty I'm deleting the game immediately. I just don't have the patience anymore. Now they've had more than enough time to get the servers and lag issues straight. If I experience anything like this myself the game is going off. There is nothing more frustrating than to be the better player or get one up on the enemy only to lose gunfights because d sync and lag.
35GB is awesome! I never understood why COD got so big in size when all of The Witcher 3, before the next-gen version, is 45 GB. Even after it got the next gen update, it's like 60. COD is over 200. Also why can't Activision go back and give their older COD games next-gen patches???
Honestly I don’t care if it falls off in 6 months I just need something new to grind. I wish this game launched 2 years ago cause now they are gonna be competing with black ops, call of duty’s only good developers lol. Hopefully this game stays alive and can compete.
Since i started playing Hell Let Loose i kinda forgot all about this game not to mention once you play that all the other shooter games feel kinda silly 🤷🏾♂️
Ubisoft units have been around for years. You sound really uninformed talking about something you know nothing about. Every Ubisoft game can earn you those units to unlock content in Ubisoft games. This isn't something new.
Hopefully, this game survives. Even though I have full faith that this game will rock, I still have a gut feeling it might die or something. Doesn't matter if people call it the "COD Killer", even if it doesn't kill COD, I will be happy if it makes it's own identity.
I’ll admit to being a hypocrite as I did give this game hate for taking so damn long. But after running into cheaters my last few games in cod. And lobbies being an ABSOLUTE sweatfest. I can’t wait to try a fps game that is not cod
Im not gonna be hating or really loving it but sadly i already moved on and actually hyped on season 4 in MW23 but XDefiant had to delay over 9 months and ppl already know its no longer a "cod killer" instead it delayed and killed itself.
Serious question please give me a serious answer. Don’t just shit on cod. How smooth is xdefiant in comparison to cod? Despite people’s feeling about cod it is one of the smoothest feeling games out there. So how is it in comparison?
So the people that screwed over cause of the connection and bs when the pass was on the beta. And we didn’t feel like getting our ass kicked left and right cause we know when to quit when a game is just not fun cause of server issues. Do we get that whole pass cause only seems fair. It wasn’t our fault the game was messing up. 4 am thought
HELLO NOTIFICATION SQUAD! We're 5 days away from the launch of XDefiant, so lots of news and teasers are coming out
Just a heads up those points in the ubi store have been around for ages and can be earned through challenges in many of there games and usually can get you some small bonus stuff in games like assassins creed games or rainbow 6 siege
holyyyyy
Not gonna lie I’m so hype for this game. It just feels so refreshing to me
same
Yeahhhhh
XD IS SO MUCH FUN BRO ITS LITERALLY THE BEST SHOOTER OUT RN ONCE IT DROPS💯
@@waff6ixFacts. I deleted every shooter off my PS5 because I’m only playing Xdefiant
@TheRealAwestBeats we need to stop and think about something what happens If we don't like it???
Let’s take full advantage of xdefiant before Ubisoft eventually comes in and finds a way to mess everything up
5 months tops
Yeah ngl Ubisoft is gonna do splitgate on the game probably die out
R6 never died
They already meesed up by putting fire ammunition in the game
@@colbyreyburn6432no one knew of siege until Jynxzi came to the game and blew up 💀
I am ready for Xdefiant to become my new game of choice.
Facts
real. Cod, fortnite, apex, tarkov, OW all are struggling to keep my attention and have grown stale in many ways. really excited to try something new and fresh
@@rhadpenguinapex has regrown on me and been loving it lately, sure it’s a sweat fest. But I’m one with the sweats with a decent 2.3kd
Thank you for still postinggggggg you a OG
The “units” currency is actually usually really easy to earn its just in game challenges. Ive earned a ton of them just playing assassins creed games and cloud playing some of their other old games on game pass
thank you!
any free games that we can grind out rn before xdefiant launch?
@@MrDon967 if you have game pass probably watch dogs 2 or siege, not many free ubisoft games these days with how they act with money
@@Ancientspacey meh its fine i figured i'll jusr grind what i do enjoy which is xdefiant for the 100 units
Cant wait anymore. When ever people talk avout COD they talk about the problems. Packet burst, SBMM, HD space, insane bundle prices etc. F@k Call of Duty. Best thing I ever did was to uninstall that mental decay of a game. COD is not a game, it’s a shop simulator with a shooter add-on.
Go Xdefiant! We know it wont be perfect. But if the community is patient and understanding it can be a hit.
Well said.
A shop simulator with a shooter add on. Perfectly described 💯
Yeah Ubisoft are gonna ruin the game and I love it
Super Excited for the game, refreshing to try something new with my friends looks like a great time
Just deleted CoD to make room for XDefiant. Not that it seems like it needs room just being 35 gbs. Lol. I'm liking the look for this preseason launch. The grind is on boys. Just please play the objectives.
That twitch rewards thing is so interesting to me as a marketing tactic, really no one loses
True
Still havent seen a single ad for this game.
Same here, which makes me sceptical, it’s not being marketed at all. If it wasn’t for TH-camrs making videos about it I wouldn’t know it existed
@@liamchapman6889 I mean, that’s how Apex was. Apex didn’t announce it was a game until the day it was released
@@liamchapman6889it’s a free game, that’s why. They’re focusing more on the actual game play instead of marketing it like cod does.

You can play other new Ubisoft titles and complete those challenges to get the coins for your Ubisoft acc, the main ones at the moment are rainbow 6 and ghost recon breakpoint
Good because I've got tons of coin's 🤑
Im super Excited for Xdefiant! 🎉
the credit balance you mentioned in the uplay game store around 3:28 has been a ubisoft thing for years, it has you do missions for the games they put out and then you earn points to spend on simple things to help you in the game sometimes or however you see fit in most cases

You can get units via other games as other Ubisoft games do this with some exceptions.

I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a game release but I think it was when black ops 2 trailers started dropping
Looking forward to it! Hopefully it offers a fun change of pace from COD while still having that good COD gun feel
Man I have been waiting for this.
Took that 200 gb cod off my console for good !

The last time I felt this excited for a new shooter game was back in 2019. I definitely miss the feeling.
I hope it wasn't for COD MW.
@@lalter_MW2019 had the potential to be a top tier cod. Best recoil system & movement. They just hurt it with super large complex map design & SBMM. 2v2 Gunfight was goated tho

Xdefiant let’s make this game popular to show actvision we want these type of games!🔥!
The skins actually look really cool! The MDR is gonna be my favorite one (aka TAR21/X95)
Well, I'm somewhat excited about it.
Sledgehammer working on a 40gb weapon balancing update as we speak
Wait so there is battle pass or is it prestige mode somehow too?
XDefiant is 35 GB while The Finals is 15 GB max (with all the destructible environment). Something to think about.
You know the currency from Ubisoft is literally a better system than activision’s which that’s absurd and I hope they keep it that way
I've not properly played a FPS since Cod 4 remastered. Considering giving this a go given the pedigree behind it, however, a little on the fence.

I feel like something broke on mine... I preloaded XDefiant... the download size was 1.37GB
4 more days and we have our hands on this game, i cant wait
Hoping this game will be somewhat decent. Getting pretty tired of playing The Finals all the time, so it would be nice to have 2 shooter games to go back and forth between

I'm excited about a slightly faster TTK and no SBMM. Seems like they on the right path. Hoping for solid gameplay.
Yeah you people get to play with low skilled players & feel good about yourselves lol 😂
@@MrAjking808 It’s more about playing against all skill levels. Not just people worse than you.

me and my buddy got on mw3 after a long day of work yesterday. we can keep up on days off
but cod sbmm ruins it when we wanna relax. i will switch games
I still don’t think this is enough.
with those minimum/recommended specs needed for pc couldnt they have brought the game to ps4/xbox under those specs?
Plz be on steam, i dont want to go through so much crap just to play a free game
Pretty sure it'll only be Ubisoft Connect unfortunately
Lame, having to download another game launcher just to play it. Also have to make an ubisoft account
It's free. Not a big deal for a free game.
Even if it was on Steam, all Ubisoft games on steam still require Ubisoft connect
I really hope they can nail progression and prestige, everything else seems at least good to great to me. Good amount of content, perfect update cadence, (6 weeks per season) NO SBMM.

is xdefiant gonna be on xbox one and pa4?
You need ps plus to play on playstation right?

unit coins are shared across all ubisoft games
Was the release of this game not today? I got it downloaded but it won't let me play any modes there all locked
THIS IS A WIN! And what I always imagined.
Cod dies during March/May. This is the winning period.
One of the reason the cod file size is so bloated is from the sheer volume of cosmetics the game has. The 4K textured and high quality sound files are likely what makes up a VAST majority of the size
Ubisoft is going down the shitter right now. I wouldn’t get too excited about this game. 🤣🤦♂️. It’s gonna flop like all there games have this year
When does it start for the twitch drops
May 21st
Well i have a 4TB external drive for my PS4, space is never an issue.
I'm going to wait for a post launch review of the game. A few weeks ago when they had another play test you said that the game still had d sync and lag issues.

all they got to do is stay true to the fans and the fans will stay true to the game

Hey Nero you should check out The Finals, It was made by old battlefield devs and it pretty fun!
Since i started playing Hell Let Loose i kinda forgot all about this game not to mention once you play that all the other shooter games feel kinda silly 🤷🏾♂️
Is PlayStation Plus required to play this game online?
should be on steam :( for more hype
if they did put it on steam you would still need the ubisoft launcher
@@pineapplepawnch523 i know i just said for more hype, more to reach people and for me i think ubisoft launcher is bad not working well
What time does it launch?
How much are we paying is it free or is it £70?

@@xxPhoenixX-sg9tr why talk bad about a game which hasn't even came out yet? Be patient, bruv.
Feels so good to have something new after all the bs cod has put us through
Being a solely multiplayer games with no other modes or play styles, I don’t see it being that big.
Sad for us PS4 user's that can't get their hands on a PS5 😢
Boy get a job.
Xdefiant is going to be my game from here on out until gta 6 drops and I can't wait until Ubisoft somehow fucks it up like always
Hoping for a free for all mode
To be fair COD is a lot bigger than X = More space needed
I’ll admit to being a hypocrite as I did give this game hate for taking so damn long. But after running into cheaters my last few games in cod. And lobbies being an ABSOLUTE sweatfest. I can’t wait to try a fps game that is not cod
Probably gonna be like splitgate 2.0 everyone plays it for like 2 weeks then forgets it exists
Splitgate was fun but yeah it died fast
I am hype to play it hope it really good no more cod for me.
And we have a proven fact:
Of CODs 250 GB the 215 consists of SBMM and bs in general.
Ill play if they have a hardcore mode if not ill stick with battlefield, definitely will never go back to cod not with these current dev teams.
Let’s see how bad the cheater problem will be and how they will handle it when it happens.
So is this gonna be a free 2 play ? Or 40 bucks
its free
@@GlideSnipes that’s a phat bet
It’s free pre download it right now
Pre loading rn
Hope this game is better than COD. Even it’s looks like a COD game.
I hope this game is good !!!!
I cant play warzone anyways due to crashes, so might as well switch😅
People are more worried about skins then game play and modes.
Im not gonna be hating or really loving it but sadly i already moved on and actually hyped on season 4 in MW23 but XDefiant had to delay over 9 months and ppl already know its no longer a "cod killer" instead it delayed and killed itself.
