Gears of War 3 Running Ranked #36: Mercy Overload

[bingload]

btw, I agree chipotle is not as good as chik

[bingload]

I would like to see a a video on skyllus' play style vs yours.

[frnxieee]

oh my god what did the big rig dizzy bot do at 3:15 LOL

[TheXXLethal]

Nothing can beat the fried Chicken samwich with there buttered bread and that one little pickel and some of there mayo from Chic Fila.

[BenRen316]

Man, I hate the fact the everything dickrides Blood drive, its a horrible map in Gears 3 yet it get the most vote hands down everytime.

[dem6nseed]

You're gonna make us BEG before you do a Gnasher/Wallbouncing vid aren't you?...

Lol ;)

[TILINwho]

Oh man I rarely comment, but that chipotle topic is very personal ffor me. I think chic fil a is OK, but cmon chipotle would run them out of business if they were next to each other.

[arCtiCvBi]

@TILINwho haha its a joke. It would be interesting to see 

[pyrof7]

What locust characters could they possibly put in, that's skinny?

[Cmikeeeee]

@pyrof7 Scourge, Alternate Mirrah skins, Alternate Kantus skins including armored... Idk just a few thoughts.

[ArmchairOccultist]

@arCtiCBi What's your chick fil a sauce of choice man, I gotta know

[hotwax17]

lol @ 3:14 wtf was that?

[Gwizzlez]

Hate to burst your bubble but escalation is coming back in January :(

[emptysatinist]

i hear new maps and characters in jan

[FAILtacular3245]

for the next dlc coming out jan 17th i believe it has recruit clayton and thrashball cole for cog along with savage marauder and savage kantus for new characters and 5 new maps

[ahlvinf]

they should make a Gears: The Pendulum Wars game

[zharmonyz79]

@ahlvinf I was thinking the same thing just the other day! :D

[wertlad1]

@ahlvinf I was thinking the same thing a year ago, y'know if they wanted to continue the series it kind of works

[jlucky226]

what state u in i have never seen a chick fil a

[Lincegames]

Ahhahahahaha Escalation is in Fenix rising lmao bad luck :/

[oXBeatFreakoX]

Arctic you are going to hate this but Escalation is coming back with the Fenix Rising DLC. Shall I leave you a link to the DLC info and do a video on that?

[transience]

Chipotle wins for those of us who are allergic to chicken. (Insert tiny violin here.)

[Unexcelledone]

@arCtiCvBi Excited for the return of escalation because it's coming and when it comes you'll be wishing everyone voted mercy :P

[imtommy8950]

Have you been able to play through RAAM's Shadow yet?

[ImDaVe96]

Arctic ur a great commentator and real genuin nice person which comes across in ur videos and ur comments, thanks you sir u have been one of the movitations for me to get into this game. you may not read this but im a very greatfull thanks you sir :)

[morofingo]

have you considered playing with other youtubers? exampeles: Likebutter, iceman, yamimash, landan, goldglove. It will be good for the community as i see that you care about the community. maybe live commentary, or simple commentaries. it wiill get massive views too. very beneficial in a lot of aspects. You rock!

[WutangFinanc1al]

you both are wrong taco bell is the best you need to think out side the bun especially on sundays lol

[TheXXLethal]

Subbing, I've seen you in some MLg vids and shit but didn't know you had a channel or it's name. Awesome.

[Fluke328]

when I play with my party of 4 or 5 we always vote for a different map then the last one we just played

[Josez1212]

Please no more mercy

[ceciland18]

@arCtiCvBi In Woodbridge, VA theres is a Chick-fi-la and Chipotle pretty much next to each other, id have to give the edge to Chick-fi-la.... ill get a pic for ya!!!

[iAmWimbly]

Just ordered my razor onza(::

[omgqwerty082]

why IS Mercy so popular?

[weaksauceIV]

so with the alternate control ive tried (on the standard controller) i do claw but find it difficult im getting the onza on christmas but could u try to do a match by clawing cause i dont think it works effectivly with claw :)

[amateur9111]

@arCtiCBi yo do know abot the weird game mode on 19th december for king of the hill where you run really fast fire comes out of your body and you can kill people by just tackling them

[arCtiCvBi]

@amateur9111 my next commentary is about it :)

[blackblob007]

@amateur9111 its comet mode

[tridentseven693]

Hahaha that's funny you read my mind. Playing on Gridlock and Overpass is pissing me off nowadays and Mercy is getting tiring. The 5 new maps are all badass, Rustlung is prolly one of my favorites now, so I try to vote most of the new maps.

[badboyjm10]

What's wrong with gridlock? and this is a bit of topic but who's your favorite rapper :P

[Nowellsy]

Nice top of the Hill dude!!

[jaykingsplashin]

Chick-fil-a? You must be down here in the south yo

[rm3nz]

Hey arctic can you make an episode on bulletmarsh?

[arCtiCvBi]

@rm3nz it doesn't get voted enough, but yeah I'll try

[Jezzie93]

We need more female characters for Locust.

Perhaps another skin of Myrrah in a condensed version of the outfit she wore in Gears 2, when Delta invaded their stronghold

[arCtiCvBi]

@Jezzie93 that's a good idea

[tcmfan124]

Whats wrong with gridlock?

[facivsbigal]

Thank you very much Arctic, this video has been full of excellent topics. I for one would be extremely keen to view tip based videos from your points of view, especially anything to do with the Gnasher and wall bouncing.

Also, if it is possible, please give a shout out to my friend Alexwowsu2. I have been a little bit mean to him lately and he is one of your fans as well, an I am sure I can cheer him up with with this. From Mannerless.

Much love.

[Derkis619]

Hey Arctic what medal do you have equipped ?

[103699amp]

Artic I have a haupauge Hd pvr, and I have controler lag now, but I never did b4 with hdmi. Any advice?

[haloreachbawce]

Hey Arctic, can you please go back to lancer gameplay? you have been doing hammerburst for a very long time and quite frankly i find hammerburst gameplay very boring

[arCtiCvBi]

@haloreachbawce interesting...most of the Lancer gameplay consisted of very little shotgun action.

[EmmaFrost1949]

Whats up with this comet bullshit thats going on in gears?!?! I hate it

[Cactusluke]

I noticed it in my own play and just now in your vid, sometimes ink grenades aren't doing very much damage on a direct hit (if any at all). Is this something you've experienced, do you think it needs fixing?

[utubepoopable]

sam byrne ftw <3

[llShredderll]

What exactly is right hand advantage??

[HCTFuzz722]

@llShredderll All characters in gears naturally hold their weapons to the right side of their body. So if you are aiming around the right side of a piece of cover (without actually being attached to the cover), only your weapon is exposed and your body is hidden. If you wanted to hit someone from around the left side of the cover, you would have to completely expose your body to do so.

[HCTFuzz722]

@llShredderll Of course, if you are attached to cover, your character would keep his or her body hidden anyway. But merely standing behind cover provides greater mobility and can give you the upper hand in a big way. That's why right hand advantage is so important.

[MuramasaSquid]

Chick-fil-a has been using its revenue to support anti-gay social conservative groups since 2003, while their food may be delicious it supports intolerance.

[GoldGloveTV]

OH OH OH, I SEE WHAT'S GOING ON HERE. Chipotle is the best. And yes, we need to play. Soon. <3

[arCtiCvBi]

@GoldGloveTV Hahaha! Yes man, we need to get in some Gears ASAP!!

[xRonTheReaperx]

@GoldGloveTV i liked your comment just because you are goldglove

[sturmwusell]

Very interesting topic. I too get bored of various maps nowadays. Even if they are great. But I don't understand it because it was vastly different back in the day.

I started playing Counter Strike about 10 years ago and played it on a daily basis for about 5 years. So basically I've played Dust 2 every day for almost 5 years. Never got bored of it. Despite me being more of a de_inferno guy. Kinda funny to me. Maybe it's the matchmaking system where you can't really choose. Idk...

[Sc0ttyz23]

@sturmwusell ya i agree i use to play America's Army on the PC online all the time and all i played was a map called Pipeline. Idk about you but it seems like developers of games these days would rather release a bunch of maps instead of good quality maps.

[caramelzappa]

What classic Gears 1 or 2 maps do you think would work well in 3?

[PDeeVee]

Five Guys > Chick-fil-a, Chipotle, ANYTHING.

[FiveGuysOneTuba]

@PDeeVee I second that

[IUnderKontrol]

What the hell did marcus do 3:15

[uknown786]

i LOVE gridlock and esclation but then again im not a pro player

[PerditionsOmen]

lawl typical black man loves his chicken!!! on a serious note...chik-fil-a is fucking delicious <3 chicken sammich please

[cdc0186]

lol blow tweets

[theblankho]

Host advantage do A Running ranked episode on that! Host advantage and bridging is bullshit along with modded controllers!

[SandyyBreasts]

Can you maybe tell us how to play wingman and run wingman strategies?

[AdamDizzz]

You were on fire this match, and I think you should do an ask Arctic. it would be dope.

My Question is what is missing from this game? certain maps, population, characters, maybe a little of all three? Id love some smaller locust chars, and fuel depot, and on a side note seems like ive been getting sponges lately in this game.

[MrShutthefrontdoor]

THANK YOU ARCTIC! I am sick and tired of all of the overwhelming Mercy votes, on TDM it is one of the most monotonous and slow-paced maps you can possibly vote for, it's like the campers' map for Gears. It is pretty much exactly the same as Blood Drive, horrible (at least on TDM, I think Guardian in GoW2 worked better since you needed to make a coordinated assault on the leader). Keep doing what you're doing :)

[mim3shots]

*town

[mim3shots]

When me and my party played against u we picked old own I bet you were happy lol

[TheArmantainment]

Gridlock is far from awful 

[arCtiCvBi]

@TheArmantainment its a horrible KoTh map...a bad tdm map and an okay execution map. The competitive community collectively decided to remove it from events because it's just not very good.

[LoTRx40kPeeWee]

@TheArmantainment in all honesty Gridlock was good for the first map, but its old and bland and all the new maps easily trump it in competitiveness

[clovispi]

Chicken biscuit isto die for. And u can blow your own tweet dude.

[arCtiCvBi]

@clovispi Yes that chicken biscuit is so damn good man

[MortalGears]

I'm a follower/fan of 'Gold Glove' as well, but I personally feel that you're a better GEARS player than he is.



[nicke1444]

Kantus Elite whould be bad ass!

[BluePoo52]

I might blow you a tweet

[arCtiCvBi]

@BluePoo52 I believe my mind was thinking "blow up my twitter feed," but it came out completely effed.

[MortalGears]

Another great vid bro!!

For me, when I see how 'Bad-Ass' your shotty/wallbouncing skills are, I wish you would do atlease one Tips vid. Covering every type of gnasher shots like "when to": pop shots (& types of pop shot), blind fire, hard aim, what shots to use in certain distances etc...

Let us learn from the best :)

[TehRealFinchoMatic]

Here's my question. Do you feel the spawn system for KOTH needs to be changed for some maps? Honestly, it's rather frustrating when you spawn near the opposing team like on Mercy

[TabooXxnarutoxX]

Why the hell those King of the hill has a Mutator on why Epic? I understand if it was quick match but on Ranked to wtf exspecialy an annoying one Comet? its just messing up the Hill Man

[FingerMyFinger]

wtf happened on 3:14?

[lileddy]

they have a thrashball locust character comin out.

[420NiCKtheGREEK]

sick digger tripple!

[haroldcuber615]

ive never heard of this chipotle. where is it based?

[jeremycarrier]

@haroldcuber615 Chipotle is all over the states, 41 of them to be exact. Personally, I prefer Freebirds, down here in Texas.

[haroldcuber615]

@jeremycarrier well it aint in north alabama. or anywhere else in the southeast to my knowlege

[orcres]

I love chic-fil-a as much as you but for me what does it is Whataburger, hands down beats In n out

[Displace77]

Lol "blow tweets". I LOLED SO FN HARD!!!!

[AbstractHomosapien]

sorry the choptle over here dogs the chick-fil-a, i love both so im happy.

[Demio8628]

You could start an anti-Mercy campaign and call it "Show No Mercy".

[Ngrandstaircase]

Chick-fil-a is fucking bossmode. Chipotle is shit compared to authentic Mexican food.

[mlog24]

Love ur vids....

[rmsteward76002]

@arCtiCvBi I worked at a Chick Fil A for four years, and now all I can say whenever people thank me is "my pleasure."

[TheHandMan10]

I want to see you/skyllus, Goldglove/TheeJohnny B, and LikeButter/Spev play a competitive match of Wingman!!!

[SteeN3R]

@TheHandMan10 tht would be sick

[cmtz3]

Just wondering do you know exactly where you want to go in an opening/spawning rush? Or do you just follow the gunshots?

[Wratix]

What are the meanings of chunk/1 shot/gib? :D

[ImTooLazyToTyp]

Who saw the weird ass meat shield by the bot?

[MultiShark33]

EPIC GAMES WERE MAKING JACINTO BUT THEY DIDNT ADD IT IN THE GAME HWNE GEARS 3 WAS RELEASED >:<!! WHYY??? IT EVEN SINKED OVERTIME COOOL AS FUUUCK!1

[AcydRa1n]

Love your vids bro!

[zbbskeletor]

4:30-double gnasher death, does it get any worse...great video again Arctic.

[XxxTactic27xxX]

arCtiCvBi if u see this play some koth. they just put in the asteroid roadie run.

no one knows about it yet

[arCtiCvBi]

@XxxTactic27xxX i played a few games yesterday. The sound from the comet annoyed me too much.

[QuadResist]

@arCtiCvBi I agree. It was fun playing for a bit, but the noise in my headphones...along with the hindered movement made it really obnoxious after awhile

[nycityisme]

chik-fil-a is much better!!!! But please don't ever say slackatating ever again!!! Ahaha

[youGotslapped100]

MW3 is literally dead

that jive is so boring I hear from ppl online

[Kahgro]

They need to bring back Canals.

[MusicJustin15]

@arCtiCvBi What are your thoughts on the Comet mutator in King of the Hill? I myself was looking forward to playing King of Hill but could not due to the fact that the Comet mutator was so annoying--more annoying than a rolling sawed-off user...or a "potty-mouthed" twelve-year-old.

[MetalliTrivium]

Escalation! i loved that map but i agree it def won't work on Gears 3 cuz of how fast paced it is compared to the first two. I'm really wishing for Fuel Depot and Jacinto

[NaturallyGiftedTV]

@arCtiCvBi Hey did you get to finish the RAAM Shadow story mode this weekend ? Or Start it?

[FiStar52]

Is it just me, or at 3:15 does it look like the Kantus gets pile drived when getting shot and sandwhiched? I had to break that down to confirm I wasn't watching some crazy kind of execution. 

[JeffW1231]

just the thought of having Overpass, Blood Drive, AND Escalation in a single MP map rotation gives me the chills.

[AllShamNoWow]

Chick-fil-a is definitely better. I'm not even going on experience having never eaten at a Chipotle. I just know deep down that Chick-fil-a is the better option.

[TaliaTxT]

i feel like the maps always go the same turn and that's pretty annoying aswell when you don't play ranked

[Killzone3master]

Chick-fil-a

[DirtyDanPwns]

what's Chick-Fil-a ?

[Malafama20]

I want to see your point of view in a video talking about how to strafe ! i need help with that thanks!

[bestbuy122]

hey i was wondering do u ever talks mack to the other team or no cause you semm like the type that doesnt

[Unexcelledone]

@projectfenix8 Tell me about it....worst popular map ever....EVER!!!!!

[mooncalfgames]

Anytime of any day? WHAT ABOUT SUNDAY?!

[arCtiCvBi]

@mooncalfgames Anytime "of" the day, my friend. I stock up on Saturday for my Sunday fix.

[projectfenix8]

Blood Drive has become very popular in the Ranked Execution playlist, i normally play it solo and people just keep voting for it even over maps like Checkout

[zEquilibrium]

I'm in class and I just finished my final exam, and Im in my phone watching this. That's how good your videos are arctic.

[arCtiCvBi]

@zEquilibrium well thanks man! I'm seriously glad you enjoy watching them!

[D00Mexe]

@arCtiCvBi We need more maps. Rod said the next DLC is for multiplayer, so hopefully it is a lot of maps and characters. That would be great.

[Hypervizzle]

@zEquilibrium I know right? i always check to see if a new arctic video came out, and i always click it first

[XLNemo]

i must admit im not a big chik-fil-a fan but ive only ate there once.

[arCtiCvBi]

@XLNemo it's so delicious...mmmm

[XLNemo]

@arCtiCvBi lol ill have to give it another shot, maybe ill do a unboxing and review? ha

[arCtiCvBi]

@XLNemo that may be the best plan I've heard all day...viral video!!!

[MrBeauJango]

and also for improving kill death ratio you can camp like a sassy pants with the old rifles but thats alright you will probably get bored of the game before you get a good KD

[oXBeatFreakoX]

Ahh loce your videos man I was waiting for this! :D Also who HATES Overpass with a burning passion hoter than hell! I don't like that map at all,especially in Team Death Match. -_-

[MrBeauJango]

what if its mercy overpass or sandbar

oh my god its diabolical

[arCtiCvBi]

@MrBeauJango hmmm go with Mercy lol

[iW0WA]

Love the intro!
