00:00

oh man I've been waiting for today for a

00:02

long time it's been 84 years what's

00:04

going on guys and welcome to ex defying

00:07

and know this is not an alpha this is

00:09

not a beta this is the full build of the

00:11

game it finally released quickly I want

00:13

to say thank you to Ubisoft and exify

00:16

for sponsoring today's video you can

00:17

actually download the game right now for

00:19

PS5 Xbox series X and S and also PC now

00:23

I'm just curious what has changed from

00:25

the beta builds to the full game I want

00:27

to see what's different obviously they

00:29

have a battle pass but this is the

00:31

preseason so technically season zero

00:34

very similar to other battle passes in

00:36

other different games we got an anarchy

00:38

blueprint okay oh wait this Lux P90 it's

00:41

an epic skin can I preview the I don't

00:44

think I can preview it they also give

00:45

you a bunch of coins as well I'm not

00:47

sure what you can use the coins for

00:49

maybe to just unlock different things so

00:51

the battle pass is 50 tiers but this is

00:52

the tier 50 this is the final reward it

00:55

actually looks really sick I'm really

00:57

curious about the Skins because I

01:00

definitely want to camo grind we already

01:01

have a camo unlocked maybe for like

01:03

completing something in one of the betas

01:05

but then we have Mastery as you guys can

01:07

see we have bronze silver and then

01:10

finally gold so to get the bronze camo

01:12

we just need to get the weapon to level

01:14

50 for silver get the weapon to level 75

01:17

and then for gold get the weapon to

01:19

level 100 grinding a weapon all the way

01:21

up to level 100 is probably going to

01:23

take a lot of work so listen man if this

01:25

video happens to reach 5,000 likes I

01:28

will grind for my first gold gun if you

01:31

guys want to see it happen go down below

01:32

drop a like I don't think there's any

01:33

more Mastery camos as of right now they

01:36

could add some later on other than that

01:38

I don't think there's like a traditional

01:39

camo grme where you have different types

01:41

of camos like head shot and bloodthirsty

01:43

and double kills I am very curious

01:45

though if you guys are going to download

01:46

exify and play and try it out definitely

01:48

go down below drop a like on the video

01:50

I'm just kind of curious to see how many

01:52

of you guys were actually hyped for this

01:54

game now I'm also really excited because

01:56

there's map voting um that is like the

01:58

craziest thing to see that is gentlemen

02:00

here we go we are on exify and I know

02:03

you guys are probably wondering right

02:04

away what weapon are you using it's the

02:06

ACR but it was actually just a part of a

02:08

bundle uh in the store and I bought it

02:11

so here we go if you guys don't know

02:12

what xine is basically it is a 6v6

02:15

arcade shooter and to be honest with you

02:17

this game is pretty freaking awesome I

02:19

just love how fast-paced it is this is

02:21

preseason but there are so many maps in

02:23

the pre- season which is actually kind

02:24

of crazy obviously different game modes

02:26

and in the future Seasons we're going to

02:28

be having more maps and

02:30

weapons no also if you guys want to jump

02:32

start your I guess X defant Journey

02:34

there is a uh Founders pack that you

02:36

guys can purchase totally up to you I

02:38

will say though starting off the uh

02:39

movement definitely feeling really

02:42

really good I think my favorite fraction

02:43

though right now is the one that can

02:45

just like self heal you I will say it's

02:47

a little bit weird that there's no like

02:48

actual camo grind like there's no head

02:50

shot and different types of challenges

02:52

you can do I guess the only thing that

02:54

you need to do for the camo grind is to

02:56

just rank up your weapons but I actually

02:58

don't know how much it takes takes to

03:00

actually rank up the guns in this game

03:02

yet I guess we'll have to wait and see

03:04

one of the things I don't really know if

03:05

I like right now is uh that there's no

03:08

kill streak I think that's definitely a

03:09

weird thing when it comes to like a 6v6

03:11

multiplayer I feel like you just need

03:13

like kill streaks and things to actually

03:15

like work towards in the middle of a

03:17

game I feel like right now it's like

03:19

yeah this is fun you know it's very

03:20

fast-paced I it's very chaotic which I

03:22

absolutely love in a 6v6 arcade shooter

03:24

just feel like when you're not actually

03:25

working towards any kill streaks or

03:27

score streaks or anything it's it's kind

03:30

of a little weird I think there's a guy

03:31

like literally chasing me what are you

03:33

doing ACR definitely feeling really

03:35

really nice I'm going throw a little

03:36

nade throw that there's a guy on B got

03:40

him let's go now you guys know me I've

03:41

played like all like the betas and

03:43

alphas and stuff like that of EX toine

03:45

in the past I think the one thing I

03:46

really like is the maps dude the maps

03:48

feel all really really good they're all

03:50

like pretty much three lane and very

03:52

very easy to manage and read guys were

03:54

wondering this game does not have like a

03:55

battle royale or anything like

03:58

that o let's go okay level

04:03

two what the what ability was that I

04:06

have no idea I am very curious though if

04:08

there is like a secret I guess like new

04:10

kill streak they did actually mention

04:12

that there would potentially be one but

04:14

speaking of the developers uh a lot of

04:16

EX Call of Duty developers did work on

04:19

this game which is very very interesting

04:21

to see okay we have our alt so we can

04:22

actually pop our alt real quick and then

04:24

I believe we get like instantly healed

04:26

which is like amazing might be dead here

04:28

might be dead I got to kill kill oh I'm

04:30

dead got that

04:33

kill

04:35

no what the [ __ ] pistol oh Victory wow

04:38

okay I will say though man Even though

04:39

this game looks more of like an arcade

04:41

style I I really like how it looks

04:43

there's my boy Brad the servers are

04:46

having a ton of issues probably because

04:47

it's the first day of the game a lot of

04:49

people are also downloading the game and

04:50

getting on I couldn't find a match for

04:52
