Believe me it does me off quite a bit. There was a discussion about this on the CTE subreddit. I posted this video of hipfiring in bf4. I really hate the revisionism and selective memory youtubers have and the they pass onto their idiot drones.

So true. Typical example = bayonet; on XB1 on those rare occasions (to use Disposalist’s technical term) I get a kebab, I am like “wow, I got one”, or someone gets me “swear”. Then you watch a famous pc gamer inconsolable that his grenade spamming, hip firing, Cei Rigotti /Automatico induced kill streak has been ended by a screaming lunatic doing a sharp turn with his mouse “_insert bayonet noise & Surprise Mother…! here_.”  
Well boo bleedin’ hoo, what about all the players you have just been annihilating? One of them dared to stick one right in your face, have a tissue, man up. Don’t start a crusade with all your sheep to have the game changed on every platform (or game mode) you don’t actually play because you got owned.  
Squid & Weazy do the best YouTube videos - play the game & have a proper giggle. Never hear them crying, except with laughter.

Squid & Weazy are some of the good guys on youtube, making videos that make you laugh. For the next Battlefield game reveal show DICE should get Squid and Weazy to host the show, no need to give them a script they can just adlib it I’m sure nothing will go wrong.

That’s what I mean. You watch people like Weazy/Squid or someone like OneCheesyMofo, who just have fun with the game. It is more pleasant than people who scream or about the game every three seconds. The some of these youtubers complain about is completely insane. Screaming about how LMG’s only requires you to hold down mouse button 1, but then talk up a system that requires you to tap mouse button 1 as if that is more hardcore and “skillful”

The funny thing is that one could argue that the latter actually takes less skill, as the current MG system actually requires recoil control, and the better you are at it, the more range you get out of them.

Like a lot of ‘experienced’ players, some of these YouTubers just cannot adjust to a more tactical way of playing. They say “unskilled” and “casual”. What they mean is “I don’t get it” and “I can’t change”.

I don’t listen to tubes anymore, only good advice comes from best players, that’s all about it really (tubers are know-it-all attention seekers, and the problem is that people actually listen to them)

Its simple with youtubers: if you are completely new to the game and FPS in general (or just suck really bad), you might want to watch some of their videos for basic info on how to play.

After you have aquired a basic level of competence: dont watch their videos, try to think for yourself instead. Yes, its harder than just being told what to think, but in the end you dont get better understanding of the game from just listening.

This is especially true since some really good and skilled Battlefield players who uploaded some videos of their gameplay like for example Nickel, relaaa or jikA are not active in BF1. Those were the last places where you could aquire some benefit for yourself by just watching and understanding the way they play, their movement and their aim.

I’d like to hear their reactions if playing on a non top end computer, to see what the different worlds look like, then tissues would be stacking high.
