    Hey,
    Last year I stopped posting because I wasn't happy, I wanted to put more effort into videos but realised that over-engineering DayZ was actually making the videos worse.
    The next video will be DayZ but am just playing the game now, as I originally did, without trying to make some epic adventure. Am recording on the Frankies Hideout server that DayZ Aftermath are hosting. It’s geared for recording but has a good admin team behind it, a great mod-set and sticking around could be worthwhile as it will likely be whitelisted for regular players in the future.
    Anyway! To solve the unhappiness, I figured I would put a lot of effort into a War Stories video because effort into those kinda just enhances them. Problem was, last year I knew no 3D and I knew that I wouldn't be able to show what I wanted to show without an OK knowledge. A few photos over gaming footage wasn't going to cut it.
    I could see that it was going to be a lot of work and that there was no way I could do learn it at the same time as posting content - It turned out to be a ridiculous amount of work. A lot of this video was made with Unreal Engine / Houdini and Houdini for me had a really hard learning curve.
    BUT! I have an OK knowledge now, and am looking for people to help who have skills in:
    Thumbnail Design (matte painting, compositing and 3D knowledge as well as 2D photoshop skills) - After Effects Animation (of the style in the video) - 3D Scene Setup / Lookdev (doesn’t matter if you use Blender, Maya, C4D Octane etc.) - Project Management - Assistant Editing (Premiere Pro)
    Hopefully this should let me focus on getting DayZ content and writing / storyboarding the next Story videos. Send me an email if you have Degree level knowledge of the above (portfolio essential), have initiative, are organised and always hit deadlines.
    Will be posting at a rate am able to finish things now. Sometimes it appears stuff isn’t being done, but I wasn’t happy with things before and feel can get a nice blend of quality Story videos and gaming content now.
    Thanks for sticking around, I do appreciate it, because it is strangely very stressful not posting! Catch you in the next video!

      Yeah this was a great watch. Well researched and presented.
      Just as a matter of style and respect on the topic (importance, the dead, etc.): 10% less sensationalism and 10% less admiration in narration. Maybe also 10% less "memefication" and all of that put into seriousness of the presentation of the topic.

    The Japanese naval officer corps sent the Yamato to die, they knew the war was over and they didn't want it to fall into Allied hands. Removing the CAP was a tell, the cruiser that developed "engine trouble" was along to make sure the captain did as he was ordered because he knew they were sending the Yamato to die. All of this was discovered after the surrender and is being taught at Annapolis.

    Really enjoyed the documentary-style approach on this. You have the narrator/speaker voice suited for this type of content which combines very well with how you setup a story. It's a natural evolution of the old warstories with battlefield gameplay.
    In recent years I've come to watch a lot more long-form documentary and lore-type videos and I really can see this becoming a regular series to end up in my watch lists.
    Your quips and joky remarks insert a lot of personality. Often a lot of the praises I read go towards production value and quality. That praise is well earned. But a lot of us are also here because we enjoy the personality behind that quality.

      Unfortunately he got it kinda wrong. The system he showed was the last resort backup option. The Yamato had a much bigger range finder at the top of the tower (he zooms in past it), that would then send information to a fire control computer. This would use the range information to calculate the target's course and speed. These would then be used alongside the Yamato's course and speed, and atmospheric data to work out where to aim then guns.

I love this type of content and Frankie just fits it perfectly with the little jokes made along the way that don't take away from the brilliant info. This weekend has been absolutely great for my favourite creators, but this is just insane. I love it, I can't wait to see more. If you, Frankie read this, I hope you have fun with this content, I hope it doesn't feel like a chore and you enjoy making content again.
    Edit: Greatest story teller ever..that was amazing. It got so real with the attack on Yamato, absolutely brilliant. I'm smiling ear to ear, this is the best thing on the internet.

    Frankie, I'll never not watch whatever you make. I started watching your videos while still living at home with my parents years and years ago. Now 32, married with a kid, I've been through a lot as well. I fully understand the never ending search to find what truly makes you happy. While, yes, I love my family so much, I still struggle to find something that I love outside of that. If you end up deciding war stories arent what you want to do either, thats fine too. Over all this time it's almost like I've grown up with you, but by with you I mean alongside you, and we're both just kinda figuring it all out.

    fun fact about the AA system and torpedo systems
    the AA had an issue where some of the guns minimum range was over the maximum range of others so it had a "gap" in it's AA protection
    also the torpedo bulges had some issues, musashi was sunk by just a few torpedoes because of this flaw and Yamato had to be overhauled to try and fix it

    Frankie, I've been watching you ever since I was in middle school in America, around 11-12, I'm 22 years old now and and just as impressed and excited to watch your videos. I'm sorry you weren't happy with your videos and we as your fan base don't want you to be stressed to upload or feel as if you need too. You are a living legend in our eyes if you upload or not. I'm happy to just hear your voice and to know you're alive because at this point, you're like a old relative of mine that I see every now and again. Love you Frankie!!

    Thanks, Frankie. Though I've read about the Yamato before you did an excellent job of illustrating the downfall of this magnificent ship and its engineering weaknesses. FYI my Dad served as an officer in the Pacific Theater during WW-2: he actually met MacArthur in the Phillipines.

I love how you are carving your way into this niche with a comedic spin that is severely lacking in the history section of UA-cam. Hope to see this take off.

    Frankie, as Winston Churchill once said: “perfection is the enemy of progress.” We would rather watch 10 mediocre videos a year than one perfectly edited video per year. We watch because of you and the story you create more so than the epic editing.

      Foreman centuries, port boats and local ships plying up and down rivers had to put the tree rudder on the right side of the boat. It was called the steer board. The pronunciation went from steerboard to STARBOARD. To keep from jamming g the rudder against the piers or shallow side of the river, the boats would pull over the PORT side to meet the pier.

I’m sure it’s safe to say that whatever you decide to do, everyone is gonna appreciate that you at least have updated us on your life. Like many, I’ve watched you since I was in like 5th grade (I’m 21 now) and anytime I see you, it strikes my nostalgia like no one else.

    At 5:48, the image is actually the starboard side not port side. The smoke stack leans to the aft of the ship with the bow to the right, which would make this the starboard side.
