Gears of War 3 Running Ranked #32: Clocktower King

[MrCoelhoO]

sorry for my noobness, but what is this gold icon? (the one on the left)

[npdabest]

Naughty Dog improved hip fire for UC3. Hip firing was pretty much useless in UC2 if you weren't using a shotty. Gears = shotty....UC3 = ARs. That is where the difference lies so you really aren't going to get those quick kills in UC3.

Though, I just got UC3...I don't believe you can wall bounce which I feel is a big part of Gears.

[xBlacKestClan]

@arCtiCvBi

ut oh you said you got a girl that plays video games, and your a beast with flame nades

[xBlacKestClan]

Are you top 100 on any of the leaderboards? Im sure you are just wondering to be positive cause your amazying like zYn going pro in 2012 i bet if theres MLG. Keep making videos and The Commentaries are pro

[Mindroach]

Epic:We went from having 100k+ players online to only 15k because of how trash the multiplayer is so let's make it worse by buffing power weapons

[NorthStrife]

@Mindroach The multiplayer is not bad at all. Do not know what game you are playing. Yes some aspects are frustrating and should be changed but the only reason it has a lot less people playing now is because MW3 came out. No idea why people would go and play that over this though.

[Mindroach]

@NorthStrife they play it because it's easier and has a higher population but in no way is it a good game

[REHamster2u0]

@Mindroach The only reason why people play modern warfare 3 over this, is because its easy as fuck! Any noob, can an double kill with dead man hand deathstreak, hell, maybe even an quad! The game is for noobs like you!

[Mindroach]

@REHamster2u0 lol you think i play cod? gears of war 2 had good multiplayer not this filth gears3

[JiggiesAkaDonkey]

Good video.

[C0N0R7878]

good stuff bro glad im subscribed to you

[samiamjam111]

This video is going into the my favorites.

[arCtiCvBi]

@samiamjam111 you are going into my favorites lol

[samiamjam111]

You're so right, man.

[TheyWhoKnow]

Did you boost the Onyx camo on your gnasher? I'm not calling you out for it I'm just wondering.

[arCtiCvBi]

@TheyWhoKnow nope got it legit :)

[TheyWhoKnow]

@arCtiCvBi Must've taken you awhile lol.

[arCtiCvBi]

@TheyWhoKnow it was the first one I got, most of my downs I switched to shotgun for the kill. Didn't seem like it took that long

[RomanPwnage]

Good video Arctic

-JLR

[arCtiCvBi]

@RomanPwnage thanks glad you enjoyed

[RomanPwnage]

@arCtiCvBi No problem brother!

-JLR

[BrightnessOne]

arctic the reason why the people are try to compare uc 3 and gears 3 is because of the fanboy war, uc is a big ps3 exklusive gears a big box exklusive

the little kids think they are cool if they got the "better" console with the "better" games and all that stuff

its pretty senseless

[MortalGears]

I think PS3 fans were trying to compare Uncharted 3 to Geras 3 because they dont have that one awesome franchise game to brag about. So they started comparing a 3rd person Action/Shooter to their 3rd person action/Platformer...

Notice you're back to the Onyx Guard now, saw you using Ice-T's character "Griffin" (amongst others) in a recent vid. Any thoughts on Griffin?

[SLiCKxTRAGEDIES]

Arctic all you said about uncharted 3 is that you didnt like the aiming controls, and then you didnt elaborate on that, now i love both my ps3 and my 360 but what exactly did you not like about the aiming?

[arCtiCvBi]

@SLiCKxTRAGEDIES going in depth, it's too slow feels clunky to be exact. Lining up shots was a pain, I felt like headshots didn't register 50% of the time. The transition from going to cover to shooting was also done poorly.

[xd1rtx]

noob question,,, i didn't know who else to ask,,,, my team is new to gb and we are having trouble with the matches,,, we create a match but how do you specify what gametypes and maps you play on? is it randomly created for you and then you have to try to find it after you accept the challenge or is there some way to specify before you create the match,,, we are getting into matches and we have to rely on the other team to tell us what maps we are playing and what gametypes we are playing,, wtf?

[XxDarkJoker45xX]

@arCtiCvBi i will comment on ever single on of these series episodes telling you to keep making more and i wish i could like a video more than once.

[arCtiCvBi]

@XxDarkJoker45xX lol that's awesome man :)

[Arrivedthree45]

Artic why do you pre-active :S?

[xd1rtx]

@Arrivedthree45

is this a serious ?,,,, why would you preactive?

[arCtiCvBi]

@Arrivedthree45 Damage boost of course

[Unexcelledone]

Here was me thinking and had suddenly become a beast....I did notice that I was killing people with them and they landed a little to the right or left

[ImpressiveTutorialz]

What's your controller settings for gears of war 3??

[arCtiCvBi]

@ImpressiveTutorialz search "Gears of war 3 Sensitivity settings" i go in depth on my controller settings there.

[smartmisterj]

y would they buff incendiary nades i had no problem with them

[xDrMs2]

im sorry for asking this but i just got back into gears and my sensitivity is all weird.. whats yours??

[arCtiCvBi]

@xDrMs2 check out my sensitivity guide...i'm playing 18 - 12 - 11

[Nowellsy]

Ah thought the incindiary got easy to use your the man Arctic

[Gametime013]

Great gameplay! Arctic, I noticed Calinorth had the zYn logo as his gamerpic in one of the other vids. How do you get that?

[arCtiCvBi]

@Gametime013 you have to download an MLG picture pack which has our teams logo in it

[justjohn95]

now if they only fix the mantle kick

[AItemusPrime]

@arCtiCvBi when you play on alternate which MFBs do you assaign X and A to? What works for you?

[arCtiCvBi]

@AItemusPrime My LFMB is assigned to X and my RMFB is assigned to A

[ITSmeSicKEyeZ]

@AItemusPrime whats MFB? and RMFB

[arCtiCvBi]

@ITSmeSicKEyeZ it stands for "multi-function button"

[AItemusPrime]

@ITSmeSicKEyeZ Multi Function Button. Left and Right. they are extra bumpers on the Razer Onza controller that his team uses and i picked up one and its amazyn <-- see what i did there :D the bumpers can be assaigned a button like A or X so instead of moving your thumb to press the button you can press the new bumber. takes a while to get used to.

[agnus420]

is live down?

[arCtiCvBi]

@agnus420 there were some issues because of the dashboard update

[masterxsalvage]

you should show use your skills, medals, stats for horde and beast and maybe all the characters you have.

[AutoPsychotic]

In this episode, we learn Arctic doesn't want everyone (or even all his fans) to feel good about themselves. :P

[arCtiCvBi]

@AutoPsychotic Lol

[Masonj16]

what's your opinion on epic adding the hammerburst to alpha?

[arCtiCvBi]

@Masonj16 maybe a good change, I'm not sure I haven't played alpha in awhile

[klutz94306]

I loved throwing joe montanna passes with the incinerary why the fuck would they change that.

[arCtiCvBi]

@klutz94306 Yep no more Montana :(

[SCARLETTERRA]

Is skyllus still doing his lesson series? Or is he still playing league of legends??

[arCtiCvBi]

@SCARLETTERRA I'm not sure when he'll be picking back up on the Lessons, but he's said he plans on doing some more of them

[Gamerzx30]

feel*

[Gamerzx30]

ROFL!! now everyone gets to fell good about themselves!?

who wants that? ahahaha nice gameplay arctic

anyone who wants to play GOW3 or GOW2

GT: YEAHimaTRYHARD

[BrendyBoy]

I agree arctic, the incendiaries are way too strong now and too easy to get kills with.

[n00b4444]

well i mean now i see ppl actually go after the incendiaries lol, b4 ppl would walk right past it

[mps927]

is wallbouncing and evading easier with alternate control scheme?

[arCtiCvBi]

@mps927 yes

[thejanitorssuccess]

so did epic pay you guys to use these characters?

[arCtiCvBi]

@thejanitorssuccess lol no they didnt

[RICEY702]

@koopa786 why are you watching the video. Oh yea and learn how to spell before you start trolling

[jeremycarrier]

You have to turn on the good aiming in the options, artic >_>

[Xsevendust]

Arctic your videos are amazing. No pun intended. I created a YouTube account just to follow these videos. I'm a very talented player and I still find much to learn from listening to your very insightful commentaries. Keep them coming man your doing great work! Thank you i look forward to every episode

[arCtiCvBi]

@Xsevendust thanks that's great to hear! I'll have more videos on the way

[midnitetrene12]

the ince grenades needed a buff, they were not as powerful as the frags which they usually switched out for

[bonham13]

Oh how there is nothing sweeter than stopping a Sawed Off user. 

[koopa786]

wow cant beilv ppl stil play this shit failure of a game...

[TaliaTxT]

@koopa786 what do you don't like about it?

[Spralsh]

@koopa786 I have lost all faith in humanity right now.

[MachoCatracho89]

@koopa786 I cant believe you still look up videos of this game.... GTFO TROLL. Go play uncharted with its sloppyass shooting mechanics.

[arCtiCvBi]

@koopa786 boo

[Eckyredtheunready]

Agree on the incendiarys, they didn't need changing at all.

[Weinsticker]

they didnt need updating at all they were always a gauranteed kill if you used them right now theyre just over powered i would have evaded out of the way and still been caught some how even though it wasnt near me. the update wasnt neccessary.

[420NiCKtheGREEK]

yer the aiming was defo off however they have patched it now to have the same aiming as uncharted 2 which was perfect.

[NMEMichael]

this game keeps favoring the newcomers instead of sticking to its oldstyle of play.

[thirtymilehigh]

You guys should check out optic midnite. The vid is great. I have skyrim, sooo...the update info is what I needed lol I don't know when I would have played gears. great gaming!

[ichobi]

What people didn't realize is that (personally) I think this is what incen should have been. It's a flame grenade for god sake. You will die if it explode 5 feet from you, or at least severely injured. The aiming is more forgiving than before, but still needs some accuracy. Might be too easy for seasoned veterans, but for a lot of people they still have to get a feel for blind-throwing. The radius is a tad overkill, I will agree with you on that, but the buff is the right direction IMHO.

[MetalliTrivium]

What was the update today for? i got on earlier and had to update Gears 3

[AItemusPrime]

@MetalliTrivium they buffed incindiary nades

[ghmyrockband]

i got a ps3 for blackfriday. I wanted to get uncharted 3 but that sold out so quick at my bestbuy i couldnt get it =/. I played uncharted 2 though at its great. Cant wait to finally play uncharted 3.

[BnSxPheaR]

Idk I think inceds are better now

[xXTheoNeXxPR]

hola nice gameplay hey try socom 4 on ps3

[MiamiJ408]

Looks like I'll be running those incendiary grenades from here on out.

[L337Hoodi3Ninj4]

wow i was wondering why i was dying by incens so often now.

[drogo319]

arCtiC! Much love and respect for your videos, but I gotta say the change makes sense in the effort bring the item to par with the versatility and kill count capability of the other two map-based nade types. In all honesty I must say I think you will/are just missing the gratification of applying skill to one of the most under-powered map-based weapons. I can appreciate that. Ink has versatility through stun and visual disruption and can kill. Incens could only kill; now they just do it better.

[semajnivekful]

@drogo319 if anything nerf ink right?



[drogo319]

@semajnivekful You're right in that ink is hella strong, but unlike frags and incens you only get one shot. If you received two per spawn I'd be more inclined to agree.

[arCtiCvBi]

@drogo319 I disagree and I'm sure most of the players that play at a competitive level would disagree. The Incens required a different mentality of use and the idea of "stacking" them added the extra layer of versatility you are also applying to the Inks. As I stated, I understand why the change was necessary, but the twice the instant kill radius is too much, had it been lowered I might be more accepting to the change, but as of right now it's too new player friendly.

[drogo319]

@arCtiCvBi Perhaps you are right; you def know the game better. But if it is by how much they were buffed, then it should be fair to compare the kill radius to the frag; their common round swap choice. If they meant to bring the two closer in lethality then they accomplished that without surpassing the frag. The other coin side is that frags should have been nerfed and incens left where they were. I don't see how the buff was too much though if it still isn't as good as its counterpart.

[jlucky226]

OMG AN ONYX SAWED OFF MEDAL!!!!!!!! WHAT IS GOIN ON HERE?

[MrXGLWalker]

Also, shame about the incendiaries, I always felt special everytime i got a guy with them.

[jlucky226]

hello viewer 301 we have been waiting for u

[semajnivekful]

@jlucky226 hey

[MrXGLWalker]

get infinity blade 2? lol, I got my hands full with MW3, BF3, Halo Anniversary, Assassins Creed Revalations and Gears 3. :P

[Cobryza]

you're a level 100! i'm an 82 lol, do you think i could play gears 3 with you one day arCtiC? GT same as YT and Twitter username. Cobryza!

[arCtiCvBi]

@Cobryza yeah I've been 100 for quite some time. I recognize your name from twitter, we'll have to get some games in on our next community night

[HLGBagBunny]

Dead space is a fun 3rd person shooter but online is nothing like gears and us only really fun when you are playing with friends.

[superl82nd]

i hate the new incendiaries they're impossible to dodge its like a long range sawed off

[spiderpig1029]

good point on Uncharted 3, i love that game, but for competative multiplayer, they are waaaayyyyy to clunky.

[Pmike2345]

did they increase the damage on the hammerburst??

[ThatAwkardGuy]

like you i loved throwing td passes with incends but now i can get like quads with them...its just such a cheap weapon now.

[arCtiCvBi]

@ThatAwkardGuy yeah it definitely feels very cheesy now

[TheSterlingZ]

rank 21. seriously Epic.

[MachoCatracho89]

Frag grenades kill without having to touch the enemy like the ink. The incendiaries didnt, now they do. It makes all 3 grenades just as powerful. I can now kill 2 with one incendiary, like all the other grenades could before. Its a welcome change. If you have a grenade, you should instill some fear into the enemy when he sees you holding it. IMO they finally got their intimidation factor.

[arCtiCvBi]

@MachoCatracho89 I welcome the buff, but the instant kill radius is too large now. If you haven't, take a look at the radius in a private match. I'm not sure how that drastic of a change can be acceptable. Heck If it was 1.5x the instant kill radius I would be happier, but i think it's overboard now.

[zEquilibrium]

never stop doing running ranked vids of gears!!! and tell us about this lady friend you have :D

[radoriAUA]

Arctic if you like playing and trying 3rd person shooters you should try Metal Gear Online. It's a whole other experience compared to other 3ps.

[Issaquan5]

Finally switched to the Hammerburst this past weekend and it works so well when you get that itchy trigger finger to go along with it.

[iDarkstarzzz]

hey arcti you should play some battlefield like the good ol days

[iDarkstarzzz]

@iDarkstarzzz lol arctic i mean

[yankeessuck193]

They fixed the aiming in the latest update and it's more like 2. You should probably play it again...

[eboy1016]

should have played uncharted 2 first.....just saying......Your missing alot.

[arCtiCvBi]

@eboy1016 yeah a lot of people were telling me I should play UC2 so I'll give it a go

[Drummerman847]

ya arctic UC3

[justanothacritik]

Oh wow. Yeah I was thinking that incendies seemed a lot better. I got a triple with one toss the other day and I was like..."YEAH BUDDY!" but the 3rd guy seemed a bit out of the incendie range I was used to. I'm gonna go to private match and play around with them. I don't really like this though because I used to love hitting Kobe shots with em. They were like the underdog nades before lol

[Quesobaconsteak]

That John Woo game was fucking gangster

[Photoharv]

@Quesobaconsteak strangehold? hell yeah!

[grandse3p]

"now everyone gets to feel good about themselves"

lol

[ImTooLazyToTyp]

Incendiaries took skill...

Now they don't.

I loved getting those awesome flaming arc barbecues. It's like "FWOOOSH" "KABLOO" "ARGHHHH"

: \ I'm going to give up on this game at this rate.

[Hypervizzle]

i had to update my GOW3 today? does anybody know anything about that?

[WordsWithStrangers]

epics all about feeding their nubs

[XNormaStitsX]

It says you used the lancer in the description, just saying lol. And yeah I agree, the incendiaries are a bitch

[arCtiCvBi]

@XNormaStitsX thanks for letting me know, I switched it around

[TheSP3C7RUM]

Uncharted was never really known for aiming. I'm doing a let's play of Uncharted 2 and it's hard to aim, but the plot and the platforming part is superior compared to nearly any other game out there IMO

[arCtiCvBi]

@TheSP3C7RUM I only brought it up because, again, some of my Twitter buddies were making comparisons.

[TheBrViewer]

Yep, aiming on Uncharted 3 SUCKS, what I like about that game is the Story, its amazing, the only thing that it reminds me of GoW is that the storyline, makes you want to watch all cutscenes.

[rm3nz]

Hey could you show some hordee gameplay?

[justanothacritik]

@rm3nz o_o...Horde gameplay?

[xHotHouseFlower]

so im guessing u like the alt controls do u recommend it 

[BCarmine98]

This made my day

[USERNAMEKLEMPTOR]

ive heard predator from team NSANE retired is that true?

[arCtiCvBi]

@USERNAMEKLEMPTOR that is true

[GrApEurFaCe]

More people should be playing gears

[yungswagg347]

@GrApEurFaCe thank you. ppl should be playing gears of war 3, battlefield 3 and elder scrolls skyrim

[GuNStArHeRo212]

Uncharted is nothing like GoW but it is a great game in the end of the day tho.

[aranyouover]

Anyone know what NSAN3Z channel is?

I need some moar Gears.

[arCtiCvBi]

@aranyouover the NSAN3Z, as of right now, are no longer a team

[AsianBoyBill]

where is Callisto zYn?

[FunnyD00d12]

@AsianBoyBill Who? O.o

[arCtiCvBi]

@AsianBoyBill who's Callisto zYn lol?

[iQuickScooope]

Once again another great video :)

[arCtiCvBi]
