DeanoBeano Goes Viral On TikTok

Nowadays, it’s not uncommon to see players in video games using all kinds of strange controllers and sharing their experiences with the rest of the world online. Drums, guitars, and even recorders have all been used to secure frags, but one player’s snipe with a musical instrument must be seen to be believed.

The Battlefield 2042 player used his recorder to aim with his sniper weapon and carefully move his crosshair to an enemy atop a distant structure in the video uploaded by TikTokker xdeanobeano.

Bullet drop is taken into account in Battlefield 2042, therefore players must carefully aim above their opponents in order to hit their bullets. Despite absorbing considerable damage, the TikTokker and Twitch streamer maintained his cool and was able to land a spectacular headshot to defeat the sniper in a one-on-one match. 

The TikTok quickly went viral, garnering over 1.1 million views. It’s unknown whether the victim in the video has seen it yet, but it’s unlikely they’d feel good about dying at the hands of a player with a recorder. But, hey, they weren’t Dean’s first victims, so that’s something.

This isn’t the first time xdeanobeano has wowed crowds with his musical abilities. In August of 2020, the streamer dominated in Call of Duty by, of all things, using a drum set.
