Danny-Elite not really. V10 could honestly be considered beta since with v10 comes a lot of the major features the game needs now it’s just optimizing and content from here on out.
I disagree. Squad has only like 5% of the features ArmA has, and that's when it comes to infantry alone. Squad doesn't have gear customization, weapon customization, multiple stances, etc etc. Squad will never be ArmA, or better than ArmA. It has potential but the devs are far too focused on making a game similar to Project Reality. Plus modding alone, ArmA will always have more.
sup drew, Idea for your Arma series. You act as an unarmed MVP whom your squad must escort, on foot, through a combat hot zone. Drew is not alowed any weapons, but he can have armor. His squad must do anything necessary to get him through to a waiting vehicle for extraction.
Alexander Cowell-Vu yeah it’s definitely worth $28, I love arma 3 but I find squad more exhilarating and it gets the blood pumping when rpgs are flying over your head and the realistic and loud weapons firing from like 20 people in a fob or something makes it worth it.
But arma had much more mods than squad and more feature grahpic is not main of the game but features while squad focus on infantry Arma focus infantry air and land armored cars and we don't need to compare it.
They seriously ought to change the GL animations. You shouldn't have to pull out a new rifle when you switch between using the GL and using the standard rounds. If you have a fragmentation round loaded, you should have to take that out first, then load in a smoke round if you want to use it. I really hope they do that sometime.
Not sure if you are aware but u could have pressed x while aiming and scroll to adjust your sights and u wouldn't have had to aim so high to be on target when at far distances. I loved being able to have my targets in my sights while shooting a rpg 400 meters.
i remember playing this game, I joined a lobby, threw a few grenades into a tunnel filled with random firing, killed 5 teammates, got kicked, it was fun
The leg and foot animations are frigging hilarious. Looks like everyone is kinda tip-toeing around. Can almost imagine a Looney Tonnes like "di di di di di....." tune to go with it.
I like the snow launching effects when he nades that hill, looks sweet. I like the new field dressing animations it just looks nice now. I am definitely redownloading this game, hoping I can get some decent gameplay in =D
Hmmm........ Drew is it satisfying to shot those machine guns? because I'm gonna buy this game later and can I still join it after v10 patch? I don't know if the code is only for the v10 patch....
ICE since people have been waiting for v10 for a while they made the code work till Saturday as a public testing so we could try it out after that you have to wait till v10 comes out
You install the base game go into preferences and opt into the Beta version by inputing a code that you can find through clever use of google or reading the steam news.
Like go into preferences once the game is installed and I'm playing the game? Then there's an area to enter a code in the game itself that will allow me to play on these servers and patch?
Apparently all the casuals have moaned about V10, and the devs have buckled under the pressure. Going to increase all the movement and transition speeds... Shame, Squad was actually looking like it would head in the right direction with V10. Really enjoyed it
we use those tubes for that exact purpose. Cause in Russian law those tubes are considered as ammo casing XD Sooo, there are some students using RPG-26\RPG-18 tubes))
love this game, havnt played in a while and missed out on the v10 beta :( looks great though...quick question...are you using a reshade in this vid? as if not the graphics seem to have sharpened right up from last time I played, I had to use a reshade to be able to see properly without everything being blurry
Ancientraz yea ik man it sucks that the game takes so much, sometimes my fps drop all the way down to 40fps, and i have a GTX 1070 and i7-7700 .. so ye, cant wait untill game is well optimized
Ancientraz optimization isn't where it should be let's take a moment and think about if an fx processor should be running an UE4 game with a huge map and 80 players
GameSupport battlefield 1 runs fine on my pc looks better runs better, 60 players...I don't think the extra 20 players should make that huge of a difference on my frame rate. I do get that the developers can't do anything about the amd optimization it's UE4. But still would love to see squad optimized for amd.
Ancientraz that's cause the frostbite engine was built for AMD processors as well (consoles use them) while the devs probably don't really want to optimize their game for fx processors since everyone has already upgraded to ryzen or Intel
TeffeZ He was recently on a video on SadaPlays channel playing fortnite. Keep in mind, Frankie is a paralegal in real life and probably doesn't have the time to always be making high quality videos.
I wish my Squad gameplay looked this good.. I can still get barely 40-50 fps at 1080p with an i5 2500k and GTX 1070 on Medium/High settings and it looks bleh.
i honestly do not want heli's. nearly all of the maps are far far to small for heli's to be used widely enough, they will jsut end up being used in the beginning for the first 10 minutes then tossed to the side for the rest of a match.
AcolyteOF Fire honestly every troll would probably crash it on purpose or every squeaker would become a sl with no mic not knowing how to fly it and fly it right into AA multiple times then bitch at his team to kill them and just go full I’m from arma but I’m 12 and I don’t crash that much and I get kicked off servers because I talk too much in global and everyone tells me to shut up but I still do it and everyone is bullying me mode
There is something strangely satisfying on the way the character holds his AK (at least for me)..
Mateus Lopes Same
same
Probably because Squad doesn't zoom in on your gun like every other shooter does, if you know what I mean.
It feels way too centred I'm my opinion, I can only hope there will be console commands or ways to change files to change the view model
They make it more realistic you put the stock to your shoulder
"You can run while sprinting right now"
HiddenAlias GAME OF THE YEAR
Rofl I did a double take until he said crouch while sprinting I was like oh okay, MEGA confused. SHIP IT!
HiddenAlias what?? I thought sprinting was staying in place the whole time😨
Word is that in v11, we'll be able to fire when shooting.
Holy shit
Upload squad vids more often
Are those all contacts
*Unleashes hell only a M249 could*
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Probably my favorite part
would have been great if he had actually been ranged for 300m instead of 100m though, hahaha
damn this game has come a long ways. Its so much more fluid now.
I remember buying it when it came out. It’s really come a long way.
Meh but v10 took a long time
Danny-Elite not really. V10 could honestly be considered beta since with v10 comes a lot of the major features the game needs now it’s just optimizing and content from here on out.
this is one of the few early access games that you can see the significant changes nearly every month, and every big patch, its like a whole new game.
I think Squad definantly has the potential to surpass ARMA.
In case of MilSim sure. But its missing the sandbox feature which allows ARMA so many Gamemodes like Altis Life.
I disagree. Squad has only like 5% of the features ArmA has, and that's when it comes to infantry alone.
Squad doesn't have gear customization, weapon customization, multiple stances, etc etc. Squad will never be ArmA, or better than ArmA. It has potential but the devs are far too focused on making a game similar to Project Reality.
Plus modding alone, ArmA will always have more.
Why not just enjoy both of them? Even tough they appeal to the same public (in general) they are very different games
DavidMN what about eft
Definately
I like the way this seems to play. The AUDIO! It seems like 3d audio for once, and volume based on distance! And radio beeps when out of earshot
Also when he was shooting the grenades, you could hear the echo of the explosion coming from a mountain. Damn
Make an "Abrakadabra" montage with PKM. :D
oh man on of the first things i did when i got in v10 was get the PKM and abrakadabra a whole squad so fun lmao
That guy is the best

Gally Squad Ops exists.....
not what i am talking about
Gally yes that sounds real fun for the guy being escorted.... Why not just make the MVP AI..
Easymorte because it could be god.
Well there is no way that would fly in a pub.
This map is beautiful, my only wish is for the snow to actually be 7 inches or a foot on the ground
worth getting for Christmas?
Even in it's current state and you enjoy ARMA I would say get it. Even better with some friends.
ok cool :)
Especially since its 40% off.
it 30% xD
Alexander Cowell-Vu yeah it’s definitely worth $28, I love arma 3 but I find squad more exhilarating and it gets the blood pumping when rpgs are flying over your head and the realistic and loud weapons firing from like 20 people in a fob or something makes it worth it.
Much better sounds, models and textures than arma
But arma had much more mods than squad and more feature grahpic is not main of the game but features while squad focus on infantry
Arma focus infantry air and land armored cars and we don't need to compare it.
"Riding on the roof, riiiiiding n th roof, this is the safest spot on this.....vehicle" I keep coming back for that
They seriously ought to change the GL animations. You shouldn't have to pull out a new rifle when you switch between using the GL and using the standard rounds.

And another great video made by a great, wait no, amazing person! Good job Drew :) (I left a like)
Still kind of annoys me that when switching from grenade to rifle as grenadier there is the taking gun off screen and then bringing it back animation.
*coughs in alpha*
Lol'd too much when Drewski said 'Ahhhh' while firing the MG.
Oh yeah this is the Squad 2 I've been waiting for. Last played 27.11.2016, so should be a nice difference when I'll boot up V10.
Another great video Drewski
When you are traveling for christmas and is hoping the devs extend it after christmas
I Love your videos Drewski! You're an inspiration
Finally the longest 3 weeks.
Doğan Alp Erden 3 WEEKS? WE'VE BEEN ON V9 FOR LIKE A YEAR!
i remember playing this game, I joined a lobby, threw a few grenades into a tunnel filled with random firing, killed 5 teammates, got kicked, it was fun
The leg and foot animations are frigging hilarious. Looks like everyone is kinda tip-toeing around. Can almost imagine a Looney Tonnes like "di di di di di....." tune to go with it.
"if sqaud is so good...." "why isnt there a squad 2??"
Davis-AKA-Bean you trolling?
hahhahh ye its a meme
Easymorte meme dude
Because it's so good it doesn't need a sequel boii
I like the snow launching effects when he nades that hill, looks sweet. I like the new field dressing animations it just looks nice now. I am definitely redownloading this game, hoping I can get some decent gameplay in =D
Just wanted to say that this isn't a final v10 release, just a preview of whats to come, a lot of things are bugged and aren't polished
Those distance gun sounds and explosions are realistic asf sounds like a real war !
Looking very good haven't played in a very long time. Completely new game.
new animations looks 10x better lol
Hmmm........ Drew is it satisfying to shot those machine guns?
because I'm gonna buy this game later and can I still join it after v10 patch? I don't know if the code is only for the v10 patch....
ICE since people have been waiting for v10 for a while they made the code work till Saturday as a public testing so we could try it out after that you have to wait till v10 comes out
Wait so do I need to install the public test server version of Squad or do I just download and install the normal game?
You install the base game go into preferences and opt into the Beta version by inputing a code that you can find through clever use of google or reading the steam news.
Like go into preferences once the game is installed and I'm playing the game? Then there's an area to enter a code in the game itself that will allow me to play on these servers and patch?
Aha found the code "squadparkourdlc" to enter once my game is installed =D
YUS! finally different ammunition types for LAV's and 30mm
Finally some love for us bipod machinegunner enthusiasts!
Drewski What are your in-game settings in squad
Vidar Holmquist also would like to know
J. H. Yeah i Know but his settings just look so good.
Apparently all the casuals have moaned about V10, and the devs have buckled under the pressure. Going to increase all the movement and transition speeds... Shame, Squad was actually looking like it would head in the right direction with V10. Really enjoyed it
I'll watch as much SQUAD as you put up
The moment we’ve all been waiting for.
This game looks awesome
V10 out of 10
i just realized this was you im sorry for shooting you twice with the BTR within 2 min
we use those tubes for that exact purpose. Cause in Russian law those tubes are considered as ammo casing XD
Sooo, there are some students using RPG-26\RPG-18 tubes))
Holy shit this new update is amazing! Looks like I need to install Squad again!
right mouse click to do underhand throw drewski
sick grenadelauncher :D
Omfg.... IS THAT A BIPOD!!!!
Edit:and a free look!!
This game looks sexier by every update. The sounds are mind blowing, too
Oh, hey, I was in this video, briefly.
I love how this character holds the weapon
Reminds me of a more realistic bf3 & I love it. Maybe it's the Ak or how clearly u can see.
When they die, their souls refuse to drop the gun.
That sound is amazing!
your explanation of poster tubes reminded me of middle school.
when he said their in the trees i had a flash back to nom
drew what else did they add other than the maps? (if they did)
Wow it’s looking good.
Damn, i hope they implement Trackir support for the free look.
Chris H it’s not gonna happen
Wait, they added freelook withOUT trackIR?
Schimml0rd its a beta test phase for v10 and they already confirmed that this wouldn’t be happening
God if there was a best game sounds award I think this game would win it.
yea its real the walking animation was cool in squad they look like zombies!
dudes running RUNNING with a PKM all day with 5 full boxes of ammo....
Ellie Blaber Lol gameplay> realism. You are slower than other roles though.
samconroy I never said it was bad, badass maybe :p
Ellie Blaber Oh my bad haha, yeah it is a lot of fun.
I used to have PKM and 4 100rnd boxes with me during army training. Sure as hell made me slow :D
Russian?
What is the outro from 14:12? It's bugging me so much i can't find it.
This video has me convinced to buy this game
squad is my kind of game. good shit
I KNEW IT I KNEW THERE WOULD BE A SNOW MAP
The new recoil looks super satisfying, is there an update to optimisation as well?
love your vids drew
hes at the building straight west
derp
I can't wait to get my new computer and jump in !
It slowly turning in to project reality 2
Squad does look very good an interesting!
Update looking crisp gotta play the game again
DemonGamer67 it’s a 24 hour event
love this game, havnt played in a while and missed out on the v10 beta :( looks great though...quick question...are you using a reshade in this vid? as if not the graphics seem to have sharpened right up from last time I played, I had to use a reshade to be able to see properly without everything being blurry
Not gonna lie, thought the thumbnail was real life
Looks nice, shame I only get 20 fps and call it good enough to play. I still don't like putting the weapon away to use the GP-25 and such
Wolfy The Doge! They will change the gp -25 meachanic
yoavmend gaming sweet
Wolfy The Doge! Ikr
The new animations are so *sexy* !
That PKM tho....😱
Hope the devs implement body dragging.
while in game talking to one of the devs, they said something of he sort for medics might be getting worked on.
Damn,its been too long since i watched one of your vids!
Did they ad the free look?
Menino Dimitri yup
track ir support?
Dorian idk
This game... is officially a success!
Is it stable? Worth buying? Are there performence issued? And how much optimisation does it needs?
Guns still floating in the air.
Well you certainly have more grenades than usual.
Amd cpu support yet? I really want to play this game (I even bought it) but even with my fx8350 I still get 20 frames.
Ancientraz yea ik man it sucks that the game takes so much, sometimes my fps drop all the way down to 40fps, and i have a GTX 1070 and i7-7700 .. so ye, cant wait untill game is well optimized

GameSupport ye
Do you know where is frankie?
TeffeZ what
You mean Frankie On PC in 1080P?
He made that EFT vid and went ded.
He's working a lot, probably studying too. I think he did say in his last videos why he didn't do UA-cam as much, you should watch them.
TeffeZ He was recently on a video on SadaPlays channel playing fortnite. Keep in mind, Frankie is a paralegal in real life and probably doesn't have the time to always be making high quality videos.
Definitely buying this game
I like that with V10 animations don't make you look like a bloody drunk Irishman. (Read with Scottish or Irish accent, it makes it much better)
The moment he was adracatabra with the pkm
How come there is no animation for switching to gl? And is there weapon zeroing? I did see drew adjust his sights at all.
Does this update help the shitty optimization?
"Why is he aiming on the side of the gun?" *Sees a guy get fucked by a grenade* "oh that's why..."
hey Drewski, will the optimisation be better?
I wish my Squad gameplay looked this good.. I can still get barely 40-50 fps at 1080p with an i5 2500k and GTX 1070 on Medium/High settings and it looks bleh.
Chris Anderson overclock the snot out of your 2500k I’ve gotten mine to 5.2 ghz with a air conditioner assisted water cooler aio
lol goddamn
Did the add free look?
MrCutlerycrazy Yes
Would've loved to see the ZU-23 in this video
New sub here i like you man you have bery good aim and you playing all the tactic games
Im playing the same game too
I've come from alpha and beta we have gone a long way boys soon enough we shall have heli's with hover rope drop capability
5tay Tuned no auto hover ew
i honestly do not want heli's. nearly all of the maps are far far to small for heli's to be used widely enough, they will jsut end up being used in the beginning for the first 10 minutes then tossed to the side for the rest of a match.
AcolyteOF Fire honestly every troll would probably crash it on purpose or every squeaker would become a sl with no mic not knowing how to fly it and fly it right into AA multiple times then bitch at his team to kill them and just go full I’m from arma but I’m 12 and I don’t crash that much and I get kicked off servers because I talk too much in global and everyone tells me to shut up but I still do it and everyone is bullying me mode
WOW JUST WOW
You can run while sprinting now - Drewski 2017
You never do tanks/BTR? :/ They had AP, HE, PKT and smoke! It was AWESOME!!! :D
