16:26 That smooth shit, paired with the music, is now one of the most slick and swaggiest things I've ever seen JFJ do. Like godDAMN, the yoink of the CENTURY
Larcin's ability to steal the briefcase by lightly tapping an opponent doesn't come up that often, but when it DOES, it's absolutely incredible to pull it off. Not that I'm good enough at the game to do that.
Im pretty sure the music is dynamic to change depending on whats going on, so the music was 100% confirmed to happen, doesnt make that yoink any less satisficing however
A reminder, that this is made by Tripwire, the masters behind Killing Floor, Red Orchestra, an Rising Storm, top TIER game devs. Great devs who put love and passion into their projects.
@@FemboyJoe even then, the non reskinned ones were often weak or just outclassed and still priced quite harshly. Even if you don’t care about strength the often mediocre gimmicks don’t warrant the price tag.
Only time will tell, wake up say doing updates or add new maps and different game modes... And make this season progression not locked to stupid missions for XP but more like sea of thieves where you just get season XP quickly by doing anything.
There's some subtle differences in the theme across the maps as well. They all hit the same beats, but different maps use different instruments in the background
This game is something truly special. I hope the devs continue to support it because if this is the game on launch imagine what crazy shit the devs are gonna do as the games life goes on. Would love to see more of this game J.
7:53 the reason those weren't considered heatshots is that, Being in cover reduces damage and prevents headshots for a short time, about 1 second of headshot prevention Also there is a blue pentagon around those shoots that show cover protection To prevent players from instantly dying right away, Also charged melee is a much better way to deal with the cover protection because it deals 30 damage and in that short cooldown before being able to shoot, their cover protection would be almost done, allowing you to be able to use the whole mag of you're gun without dealing with the headshot protection.
I love how in spite of the fact this isn't a sponsored video he goes out of his way to use the "This is totally a sponsored video that is paying for my dinner tonight" voice in the intro.
Okay, achievement concept. "Stolen Glory." -Using Lupin's pickpocket, steal the breifcase from someone trying to extract. "Absent minded." -Have 2 items pickpocketed from you within 10 seconds. "Pocket Shopper." Pickpocket 10 items over the course of a match. "WAIT A MINUTE!" -Encounter an agent disguised as a VIP, or a VIP, while disguised as a VIP. "Quick and Quiet." Obtain the breifcase, within 15 minutes of the round starting, without blowing your cover. "6 bullets." As Chavez, down a squad without reloading. "The Power of FAMILY." Survive 200 damage with Chavez's ability. "And this gun I found!" Down an Agent within 30 seconds after Chavez's skill. Royal Flush. As Ace, down 5 enemies headshots.
its nice to see J trying out different creation methods like 3d animation. It's not good just yet but with time he'll be making pretty good animations once he gets the hang of it. Keep up the great work J!
One thing you didn't really mention was the game's monetization. This game has probably the most predatory battle pass system I've ever seen in a non-free to play game. Essentially there is the paid battle pass, which allows you to get shop currency and various cosmetic items as rewards, and you get the points for progressing through the pages by winning games (this is fine, standard battle pass stuff) but if you don't want to pay for the battle pass, you can still progress through it without paying. Where the problem arises, is that each page of the battle pass has 5 items, 3 cosmetic items, an EXP boost, and one other item that varies by page. In order to progress, you need to purchase 3/5 of the items on each page. This seems reasonable, until you realize that the 2 least valuable items on each page (EXP boost + random other item) are the only items players that didn't pay for the battle pass are allowed to equip. THIS MEANS YOU ARE FORCED TO PURCHASE COSMETIC ITEMS YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO EQUIP JUST TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE BATTLE PASS. The intent is obvious, force players to spend their limited currency, that they can only gain by winning games, buying items that the game repeatedly informs you are unusable without paying, just for the "privilege" of continuing through the battle pass (and the further you go, the more unusable skins you collect). Having the items unlocked but just trapped behind a "pay for the battle pass" paywall does seems to only exist to influence players into paying for the battle pass even if they didn't have any intention to initially. I don't mind paying a bit more money for some cool cosmetics, especially in a game that's only $20, but I draw the line at being this scummy and manipulative to players that'd rather just continue playing the game they already bought without being pressured into pumping more money into the game. (and that's setting aside other questionable, but at least more reasonable decisions they've made, like the new character costing 3x the FTP currency that the rest of the characters cost (surprise, surprise, she comes free when you buy the battle pass))
I had to replay this amzing video once the premiere was done! love with work, awesome intro and i was glad to watch most of these plays live. my mans had 3 games in a row where he just stole the case for a win!!!
No, it still applies. You just can't be braindead about it and attack an entire room; you have to be more cautious about the approach. Not to say you CAN'T go guns blazing. It just now has a cost that's balanced by the upside of "you now know 100% that there's no enemy players here".
If you have terrible aim like I do, I'd recommend burst fire weapons like Larcins second gun. I've found that the combo of it being slower between shots gets me to not click wildly (not throwing off my aim out needing to deal with recoil as much) while getting two hits each shot keeps the DPS up
ngl at 0:37 I very much dislike how the spy looked at JFJ. Bro got some cogs turning that shouldn't be turning at all. I swear look at him. Great video, and the animations are getting better!
its a lot to unpack but using disguised cover is the most crucial part of the game, the game heavily insists stealth and observe your surroundings as if youre acting like an npc until you wait for a time to strike. there are different types of rooms around the maps where youll need to disguise as certain npcs so you dont get called out by the npcs. not only you can disguise as npcs, but one of the gadgets youll unlock as you play you can disguise as furniture too. as for character abilities, each character as a unique weapon, passive and expertise and you can unlock more weapons and abilities as you level each character up. i could go into more detail if this isn't too confusing for you lmao
@@MissArcanaOfTarot No its alright, just not my kinda game it seems. Opened up the stream of this game and got flashbanged with the UI, nothing clicked past the premise of "disguised people, shoot them"
Gotta say, that instakill move looks unearned and creates a toxic spectrum where in 2 situations you have different result A. someone just gets instakilled for essentially no good skill reason and is now upset B. someone misses their instakill and then complains that it didnt hit and is now upset. also, definetly will say that this is a good video with a good game.
This video actually inspired me to buy the game and play it for a little while. Unfortunately, due to skill issues, I wasn't able to play competently enough to do well or even have fun, since most of my time was spent in lobbies or waiting for a match, as almost everyone I faced was several levels above me.
Yeah but once you start leveling a character up and unlocking alternate abilities and weapons you start getting on that skill level a lot of times I would just sit and wait and watch and they would take off with the briefcase and I would lose but I learned a lot
It's crazy how in another spy game, the shortest person has the best advantages.
It’s always the Monopoly guy
F*ckin Oddjob...
Ah yes, the Oddjob effect.
*War flashbacks of the Golden Eye TDM with Oddjob*
Seems odd...
OH GOD ODDJOB!!!!

@@shadekage3432 sadly true BUT GOD DAMN WAS IT GOOD
Some Lupin the 3rd shit
High class individuals getting their most valuable possesions stolen by a sock pretending to be a spy is humerous.
A reminder, that this is made by Tripwire, the masters behind Killing Floor, Red Orchestra, an Rising Storm, top TIER game devs. Great devs who put love and passion into their projects.
Tripwire only published it, but it seems they chose a good dev to back.
That's good to hear. It looks really smooth
I wouldn’t say top tier after all the reskinned full price weapons in killing floor 2
Not reskinned. Fully modelled weapons with their own animations. Unless youre talking about the hrg weapons but those were F R E E.
@@FemboyJoe even then, the non reskinned ones were often weak or just outclassed and still priced quite harshly. Even if you don’t care about strength the often mediocre gimmicks don’t warrant the price tag.
Being able to steal the Briefcase looks so satisfying also wonderful video as always
Now this is a good game. Please don't let this video be a one off.
Only time will tell, wake up say doing updates or add new maps and different game modes... And make this season progression not locked to stupid missions for XP but more like sea of thieves where you just get season XP quickly by doing anything.
its on discount now on steam :)
I love this game.
Imagine trying to lift a suitcase of solid gold containing more solid gold
As soon as I saw that metal piece fall I was thinking, "that would be funnier with the metal pipe sound." You do not disappoint.
Love how J shakes when he's shooting another player. Like he got allzhimers or something
i dont blame him sometimes i do the same
"Alzheimer's" XD
I call it the *PvP Tremors* because it's just an unnecessary adrenaline shooting through your system because OH NO PLAYER.
power gripping the mouse like it is a pistol
Isn’t that a technique so he lands most of his shots or smth
The adaptive music in this game is amazing and it’s a shame more games don’t utilize it
It may only be one track (for now...), but it's just... it's so goddamn GROOVY, I love it!
There's some subtle differences in the theme across the maps as well. They all hit the same beats, but different maps use different instruments in the background
When you're supposed to extract but your instincts make you dance instead:
Loved the animation at the start, it has its own charm which I love, keep getting better at blender!

Down an Agent within 30 seconds after Chavez's skill.
Royal Flush.
As Ace, down 5 enemies headshots.
Those are actually good, here's hoping this goes somewhere
All those chavez ones are damn easy
Okay tbf if Chavez’s gun does 50dmg on a headshot, it’s not going to be TOO HARD getting a kill without needing to reload
@@FestiveRocket You'd have to hit two headshots on three people back-to-back, which I think takes a lot of calm and being good at aim.
The Sly Cooper intro music does not go unnoticed or appreciated.
its nice to see J trying out different creation methods like 3d animation. It's not good just yet but with time he'll be making pretty good animations once he gets the hang of it. Keep up the great work J!
16:23 All the Sly Cooper games led to this moment
I hate how little amount of people play this game and that it isn't mainstream
would need to be free for that tbh.
10/10 would watch again and reccomend to 5 people

the sly cooper music on the start flinged my mind to nostalgia immediately
now i just want a The Ship community play day
im so happy to see jfj both playing this game and loving larcin nothing like playing a sneaky french man giving the enemy psychological damage
I appreciate the sly cooper music in the beginning

It still brings a smile to hear some sort of Sly Cooper tracks in a video
1:52 "Attack NPC's you think are players"
That line didn't age so well. Thanks, heat system.
No, it still applies. You just can't be braindead about it and attack an entire room; you have to be more cautious about the approach. Not to say you CAN'T go guns blazing. It just now has a cost that's balanced by the upside of "you now know 100% that there's no enemy players here".
You have no idea how unbelievably happy it makes me to hear the country version of that meme I recommended in the intro animation. 🤣👍
so J knows Lupin. im sold.
The urge to play this game grows every day
You will not be disappointed. This game is really awesome :)
The game is free to play this week end, so you might give it a try
It's on sale now until May 4th, and also on it's free weekend so you can try it out.
Your sfm work has gotten better over time j! Keep it up ❤
YOOO THE SOCK ANIMATION LOOKS SO GOOD
Jfjs new intros are amazing, keep em up j man.
This OST is really slaping. Thanks J!
This is my new favorite JFJ video
0:09 JFJ Thug Shaker Mind Control?!?!
I love what you’ve been doing with the animated sock
JFJ stands for Jupin Fhe Jhird.
Amazing game, amazing player. Keep it up JFJ
that is an adorable sock man model, perfect mascot for your channel along side the baby boy.
You know its a good game when j talks aboust without being sponsored
Love these silly animations at the start, reminds me of the TF2 intros of old
That ending holy shit well done bro!
4:10 right on the d o o o o o t
0:36 all I'm hoping is that he wasn't gonna be put in a jar
Sly cooper music spotted!
(JFJ Yoinks briefcase) in perfect synch both of us go ''FLITHY''
Great video, also this game's soundtrack has some funky beats

I can FEEL the sluggish controls, good God.
I kinda want to make 17:34 my morning alarm
I sure do love instant kills in a game all about cleverly choosing your fights and putting yourself in the advantage.
I can't believe they made a game where you try to steal the documents explaining what JFJ stands for
I love the new 3D animated segments, really adds a bit of quality to these videos
Your weren't wrong about the soundtrack.
It's an absolute banger.
“Remember J! Just jump and press the circle button!”
Love the sly music in the beginning
Sly copper music is iconic!
It's no SOS, but it looks amazing and this video was very funny😂
"I am the Spy."
- A sneaky Frenchman
I really like how this is just the spy TF2 game
This gameplay honestly reminds me alot of Assassin's Creed multiplayer.
felt like a psychopath playing this game without the music
It’s like gmod guess who but both sides are hiding and hunting
Glad to see this game get more love!!!
Oh yeah this was than nice looking Spy themed game.
I love watching Deceive streams.
17:33
one shots suck but damn the content it generates is funny
17:08 orphan of kos
This reminds me of hood outlaws and legends if it wasn't dead on release
If I had a nickel for every time a master gentleman thief found J next to crucial intel in the start of the video, I’d have 2 nickels
By, your weapon won't headshot someone who is in cover and when they break their cover for like 2 seconds
Its great to see J being absolutely insane at a new game.
10/10 best video ive seen (i havent even watched it yet)
Agreed
Absolutely @britshia
Great animation, can't wait to see your future progress.

who let JFJ max out pickpocketing he too dangerous

I swear to god, Deceive Inc. needs to add Lupin! IT WOULD BE SO COOL!
NO WAY that was me in your game and my squad. I was playing Chavez and my teammate was Yumi at 10 mins
oh my god lupen is a playable character
ngl at 0:37 I very much dislike how the spy looked at JFJ. Bro got some cogs turning that shouldn't be turning at all. I swear look at him.

J be Larcin maxing all the way! I love Larcin’s gameplay
there’s 12 characters now
I think one shots are fine unless they are in games with a long ttk like this one
I would buy it, but hell is really expensive where i live
Not sponsored, just dead inside, same thing really
I was waiting for this video. I've seen the moments you had on stream, amazing game. Infact, the streams made me buy the game.
