CLOCK BLOCKERS - A Mind Bending Gunfight 

And those mini bounces up and down in their hands though....

dont forget the fact they ignored how grenades work once you pull the pin you have to actually let go of the grenade for its countdown to start cause the pin holds down a lever that activates the grenade and when you pull the pin your hand will be holding down the lever so how did it blow if white nico never let go?

+Lucky Loki yeah but the spring was already loose

Lucky Loki No, watch it again, you can clearly the lever fly away.

One thing to keep in mind is that the events are shown in cinematic time for dramatic effect. If this was an actual game, all of these events and actions would be happening more or less at the same time, and a lot more quickly.

The newer stuff is great, but I do miss the feel of some of these older videos. Back when it was about coming up with the most creative ideas because that's how RU-vid was back in the day. This and brush with death are probably still my two favorite Corridor videos because they were just so creative. They were what inspired me to make videos back in the day and while I chose a different career path, I still have fun doing VFX stuff as a hobby.

Same

i would love a clockblockers 2. With all the experience and skill they have it would be amazing.

It was so good that someone actually made this game.

Agreed !

story of my life

but he gave the shotgun guy cover to shot the emeny every time so it was worth i guess.

We're releasing a game that works along the lines of Clock Blockers - check out the demake now that you can get on all platforms for nothing - trailer on my chan thanks! let me know what you think

@@diceblue6817 nice

He actually helped the shottie guy who killed the auto guy. The really important guy.

"bam"

i think it's just ad libs for the song

honestly why even have the on set sounds in the mix at all? We can't really hear footsteps or anything over the music, and I assume the other sounds such as gunfire are all added in post. This plus the vfx weirdness around sam's legs when he kicks the tires really help show how far they've come since making this video.

@@queueue_ they might've forgotten to mute that one shot haha, mistakes do happen

Mystireon and a bam

You can hold a grenade that has its pin pulled so long as you grip the latch on the side.

I'm aware of this, but the time it takes to go off after release still vary by a few seconds.

+Ivan cheung The latch flies off if you let go of it...

Pretty sure the grenade goes off in the last 5 seconds of the round every time and the rounds are longer each time.

@@Ivan-dq2xj Every time the pin is pulled, you see the spoon fly off. There is nothing stopping it from detonating.

no one is confused my man

rocksaregray Meh, I was the first time. Just helping out the rare confused person :)

I personally understood it but well said

this helped me out a lot. thanks.

a game like this would be something I would like to play. it forces you to plan ahead and think of what to do next, interacting with the environment to not help your current character but to help the next, and you must also remember enemy patterns to plan what to do next. but why the name "cock blockers"?

Thanks! I'm going to give it a try while it's still in open beta. Looks like a great start, I hope it turns out well!

True, basically same rules

It's amazing to think that this video came out 9 years ago and now there is a game coming out.

Oh for fucks sake, i just wanted to post this shit! Why do you destroy my illsuion of being original XD

Also coming to Switch soon

@Michael Lee Look up Quantum League

OMG I just checked the date for this video. Thought it was 3 years old at most.

@Michael Lee indeed, look up quantum league, getting out of early access today.

Correction, 2020 and it's still sick

*11 years

Even now

Even now

Yeah, we all agree it's aged well

@@ImReddoer hahaha dude

Even now

It is.but it's about shooting blocks and trying to eliminate them in the quickest way.

Yea it would. Interactive maps Every round you control the new character When unlinked the AI would than control the unlinked guy

+MNNchildhood working on it. will put it on my channel so u can see it. it will be a long time tho.

+LeoValdez915 REALLY? Omg

+LeoValdez945 hey dude I would like to help you with, I'm dev :D

felipfrmstarbucks yeah I heard those before also

You can even hear a voice at 2:30...

i always though at 3:29 he said “Sam” to get his attention to shoot him

Prob verbal cues so they know to fall because they were 'shot'

OMG after all these years I never noticed that until now! XD

+Nathan Meis Yeah! Some one agreed!

Yes please!

That would be awesome!

Yes like the millions of others who want that I want it too

Yes! Put like, 3 different teams, with 8 clones each! It's just going to go crazy at the end! I know it would take a while, and I may be exaggerating, but it would be worth it, and hopefully fun to make! :)

I think it was stuck to his hand

For some reason actually Sam shot HIS OWN CLONE (idk why) which unlinked the rest of Niko's clones 3:07

Colden Hanses Well at that point, Sam’s Purple and Orange were already dead. If he had let things play out as they had before, Sam’s White would kick the grenade to Blue, then Niko’s Blue would have shot him. He had to do something to change the flow of things, since Sam’s Orange couldn’t save his Blue. The only problem was that since Sam killed his own White, that unlinked Niko’s Orange early to kill Sam’s Blue. And then of course since Sam’s White was dead, Niko’s White never threw his grenade and that allowed him to pull is game winning kamikaze stunt. Boy that’s confusing as hell to explain. I think I got it right.

@@gavinli1368 Sam Black shooting Sam White didn't unlink Niko Orange right away, though. Listen to the sound effects. Niko Orange only unlinked when he was about to shoot Sam White (already dead), just before he shot Sam Blue, then got shot by Sam Black. I suspect that Sam Black shot Sam White to disrupt the flow of everything else early enough for himself to take advantage, but too late for Niko. He knew that he was losing if everything continued to play out as it previously did. Sam White literally did nothing else in the loop after kicking the grenade. He was killed by Niko Orange in the previous loop, but it was late in the loop (just before the reset). So Sam Black knew that Niko Orange would be stuck on the path for a while, while unlinked Sam Blue not picking up the grenade would be free to change things for a longer amount of time. The problem was that he didn't know that Niko Black had unlinked Sam Orange and Niko Blue with the wood. Sam Orange was supposed to kill Niko Blue, and that's what Sam Black was planning on still happening. Sam Black didn't know Sam Orange had already died. Sam Black was expecting Sam Blue to be a wild card, but Niko Blue and Niko White ended up being the wild cards. (Also, Sam Black may have expected Niko White to blow himself up with the armed grenade due to not having a target anymore, but didn't expect the kamikaze move.) It was a risky, desperate gamble. It could've worked, but it didn't pay off.

@@MichaelMoore99 Hey I know that profile pic. Admiral Memo! LRR! But yeah, I see what you mean about hoping Sam Blue would be a wild card. The second to last round ended with Sam Blue still being alive just after he caught the grenade and tossed it under the truck at Niko Orange. If things had continued that same way, Sam Blue could have done anything after that. And after giving this thing another rewatch, I noticed that we don't see any of either Purple's at the start of the final round. Imagine the massive upset if Sam Black killed Niko Purple before he killed Sam Purple.

Specially at 3:31

That's what I thought too! Almost like a cross between Chris Pratt and James from Studio C

yeah

The entire video I kept thinking it was Chris Pratt.

I was thinking more Ryan Philippe from “The Way of the Gun.”

It definitely doesn’t work like it would in the video, I’ve seen people play and it’s just chaos

@@Musically_Declined No, it's actually very similar to this. Quantum League has a mechanic called "Desync" instead of "Unlink" where after you "die" you become invisible and you can continue to perform actions like shoot and run (they just don't affect anyone). In a future round, if the desync is prevented by killing the person who desynced you, those actions that your previous clone did have real consequences. It's actually an incredibly cool mechanic, but unfortunately, it takes a lot of experience, skill, and brainpower to execute. I think that's the reason why many people think the game is chaos, when in fact it is a truly innovative game. You should give Quantum League another chance!

Evan Gao I know it has the same mechanics, but it doesn’t play as smoothly as it does in the video, not many people are doing intricate strategies of desyncing and killing their own teammates, it’s just people shooting any enemy they see

@@Musically_Declined While I get where you coming from the game is probably the best way to execute what this video shows cause you have to remember this is a video. It was not made with the intention of becoming a video game but to entertain.

I’ll have to check it out

should've shot purple guy.

Sam shot his ally so blue sam would get unlinked to shoot Niko clone

Inigo Ligones FNAF 3 Confirmed!!!!

Zack The Pirate Fox Get it?

Zack The Pirate Fox lol i get it

Here's how I would design it; A player vs. another player will start off a normal match with AI. They can only control 1 AI, so the first round is normal. They pick which loadout to choose from of the 4 options. There are 5 rounds, and every round adds an AI, but they still can only control 1. After they pick which one they want to control, they cannot change it during the round. After 4 rounds, the final round is all AI's and the players attempting to kill one another. The game ends with the last AI/Player standing, and their team wins.

Fair enough, although that seems to be more of an "Overlord" kind of thing as opposed to a "Time-bending" kind of thing, y'know?

I'd imagine it being more like a team of 5 people. The "commander" is chosen at random from the 5, who then leads the team. Each player can choose their loadout before they even join a match, as well as in a 30 second pre-game time, incase they change their mind based on the other players. The commander chooses what order to send their teammates out to the battlefield. If they stall or afk for too long, the order of anyone who hasn't been picked yet is chosen at random. The first selected player from each team will have 20 seconds to duel and set-up blockades and support for their following teamates. When the 20 seconds ends, the next round begins. In the second round, the next player goes out to the battlefield while the previous ones are replaced with bots that copy exactly what the original players did before, however, if they get "unlinked," like they do in the video, the original players are instantly given control of their character again during that round. The timer for the round is also extended by, say, 10 seconds each round. This continues until the 5th and final round, where the commander himself enters the battlefield. The commander has the unique ability to press a key on a player and unlink them without doing anything extra. Unlike the previous rounds, where the goal was basically to set up for the final round, the goal of the 5th round is to be the last team standing, or to have the most alive players at the end of the round timer, and the timer is extended an additional 30 seconds. If the final round ends in a stalemate (ie, both teams have the same number of players remaining at the end of the timer), Sudden Death is played. In SD, all 5 players are unlinked at the start and the objective is now to just kill the commander. If THAT round ends in a stalemate, the game is declared a tie. There could also be a separate "bot wars" gamemode where the only real players are the commanders, requiring just two people, but I'd imagine the 5v5 version to be more fun though because there would be more control over the battle than if most of the players were stupid AI.

Oh my god, i would love to make that into a game, considering this is my favorite video on youtube. But i only know gamemaker, and i'm not sure if this could be done in 2D.

PaperPlayerX hopefully if your idea turns into an actual game, there will be split screen

If given the time it wouldn't be that tough to code either. The whole "Cloning in time" has already been done. You just need to add it objects could be interacted with (both by players and with eachother), and add in that if a new enemy enters sight, or isn't in sight at a given time that they should be, affected players are "Unlinked" and have control back.

***** A lot of people figured it out. Take Mirror's Edge for an example. During the time trials there is a ghost of your fastest time. All they would have to do after that is change the skin to a character in the game and repeat it each time

xXSpitFireXx Exactly. It's just getting all the smaller elements to work together, and to actually make it enjoyable (the most important part, after all)

yeah. I really hope this will be a game

there is Time rift and jacksepticeye played it

Yeah but the big difference is that's a PvE game, imagine the sort of strategy a PvP version of Time rifters would use, that'd be awesome

Dartfish there is for mobile clone armies but its not as cool

Brandon Chandler You can get time rifters on steam but it does not have a pvp mode like in the vid

Dartfish we all would

Another game using similar concept is chronotron.

yeah to be honest i thought it was called "glock busters" instead of the regular title XD

+ALPHAGAMER21 he means cock blockers

I read "Clock Bucklers".

ALPHAGAMER21 same

I read clock too

***** Yea I felt so bad, they worked so hard and just slipped up on the mixing there.

+newflightvideos He's just doing his Isaac Clarke impression, it's ok.

I hope the guy in the black with an ak killed his own team mate ( guy in white died )...so he kill his team mate then got killed...karma...that's all I have to say

+Devon Mata The reason he killed white shirt Sam was to unlink blue Sam. Since orange Sam is dead, blue Nick will still be alive to kill his blue Sam without orange Sam to save him (as history would already have happen). By killing white Sam, the grenade isn't there and without the grenade, blue Sam is unlinked and saved from blue Nick. The repercussion of this is an unlinked white Nick with a grenade who goes missing. At this point, it's more beneficial to have the blue Sam run around ALIVE and unlinked rather than dead from the blue Nick. If we were to look at this in a better way, one could say that if Sam had just killed the white Nick or even kicked the grenade a different way, then White Nick wouldn't have gotten in the way at the end with a grenade. Granted, the rules on weapons are unclear, but it seems each clone or person is allowed only one weapon to start and any refillable mags. Even if white Nick wasn't killed and the grenade was kicked a different way, then it's possible that white Nick would have no other weapon (unless picked up), or would have to use a new grenade which would make a whole new timer entirely and the ending fight would be a longer struggle with a different outcome.

Ya or Sam is saying sam

Kick him out instead. Banned him from hardcore sercers

Lol

+Aleksander Voznjuk He didn't Team-kill. He strategically won. You see, The spectators, Sam & Niko can see everything. Niko used a board to stop the tire. This killed handgun Sam. To counter, Sam killed Shotgun Sam, to unlink machinegun sam. This allowed Machinegun Sam to kill his pursuant, only to be gunned down by BFG Niko, so Sam, taking Shotgun-Sam's place could take out the BFG. It was a Queen's gambit and totally brilliant! He cleared the board by taking out his man- so he could win from a behind position; Only he ignored the pawn (which lets face it- we all did). Grenade Niko's aren't good for much. But Sam would have won if it were not for that split second move. Sam teamkilled for positioning. #MLG_ClockBlockers_4_lyfe

+EighteenCharacters Wouldn't it be better for him to shoot down the Grenade Niko to unlink shotgun Sam,which would unlink Machinegun Sam to kill his pursuant AND to counter BFG Niko?

friendly fire enabled

Kazekid true

CUZ EVERYTHING IS BETTER WITH A BAG OF WEED!!!

@@leeks1408 It's because they bought pretty much all of their prop guns at this early stage by selling off a bag of weed a friend gave to them.

I understood that reference 😂

Vishnu RK no one will who doesn’t know the BTS

stfu

both of you go back to iraq

ANx3h stfu

Or like a 5 v 5 v 5.

or maybe we can do 2 players on each team that have the same set of rules (Like 2 players with their 5 clones on each team playing the game so its a 10 clones vs 10 clones.

*insert inappropriate joke about wearable bomb*

He sacrisificed himself to save the main Niko copy, what a legend

Not COMPLETELY the idea but it has elements; www.gametrailers.com/reviews/0bf12r/super-time-force-review

it is its called "time rifters"

They are now, look up Quantum League.

@@Bat-of-Sealand Even better, look up Lemnis Gate.

'Lemnis Gate' (it should be on Steam) seems to have a similar premise. :-)

@@LurkerPlus I rather hope this becomes something akin to a new subgenre of competitive FPS.

please boost this post o they and read and reply

lol what are you gonna make the game in? some crappy little flash game?

There is a game just like this called Time Rifters

DreAndreas2 Wow, and you are an ass, aren't ya? Because people can't get a team together who knows how to code, right?

I look forward to it.

:( At least I bought it before it was delisted. Very fun to play by myself or locally with someone There is a mod that re enables online play

thats how they know when eachother are shooting

ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh. So that's what that is. K thx!

MrDubCats

I heard sam

3:29

Only reason I came here is I thought that too lol

So you guys are completely ok with coming to a video that you think says "cock blockers" but get confused when it turns out to be clock blockers, ok then.

I once saw a video series called "cock blockers." It was all about these two friends who would interupt each other's dates and completely ruin any chances they had. Funny and creative material. As for "clock blockers" I had no idea what that was about.

and have everyone wait?

I was thinking something more along the lines of the same thing with the cameras, but only more like a first-person XCOM.

I'd say if this was a real game, there would be both modes. One where it's you and four AI, where when one of the previous guys unlinks, AI takes over, and another mode where you'd have 5 players who'd do their turn and only play again when unchain'd.

***** FUCKING GENIUS Caps, but that is fucking genius. TAKE MY MONEY

yeah shooting the white shirt guy was a pretty stupid move

Honestly, if he had shot the grenade guy, then it would have played out vary similar to the video, the main difference would be that Sam still has a clone in the end as opposed to Niko, meaning he would have likely won.

aha!

me too

Joshua Dzingeleski There is a concept based of this video currently on the steam greenlight area called time rifters. Its pretty cool, if you want something like this to be a game,you can support the developers of time rifters by getting their game greenlit on steam.

halocomentry I didn't know that.................thx

***** You should watch the second trailer, which explains the gameplay. It actually is quite like this video.

Mind bending right !!?

see how a grenade works is you pull the pin and let go of that little lever on the side and then it starts a timed fuse, but as long as you hold onto the lever and don't let go, the fuse doesn't start and you could even put the pin back in if you want so you can hold onto a grenade for a very long time after the pin is pulled, to summarize pulling the pin doesn't prime the grenade

DJxKILLERBOY117 Yes. I am completely aware of how a grenade works but watch the video. At 2:10 he pulls the pin and the lever flies off because he throws it at the other guy. At 2:18 he kicks it to the other guy who throws it at 2:30 where it explodes at 2:35. That's 25 seconds of holding on to a grenade without the pin or the level. Watch the video and pay attention.

lex1020 holy shit nuggets it not real its just a damn video

Only 1 year left.

And they already have, second down if you search “clock blockers” Made in gmod

FYI There is an implementation of this concept soon to be released into a game called Lemnis Gate.

+NoyzBot same here

I just figured out how i t works. each person is battling the other with their coulored cloves and when they are with others they fight differently😕at aleast I think

+James Harvey yea some blockades don't work the first time bit do the seccond

I want to why there so many dislikes

Same

Lemnis Gate too now

Well, more like Paradox Strategy...but you know what I mean.

Same here

Russell Deng UNLINKED

Why can't you make it a game? There are plenty of simple and easy to understand software that you could use.

EtomicBomb I don't know how 2 :( am n00b

Tom Humbles There are plenty of tutorials on youtube.

EtomicBomb eh. whatever

Its is a game... for oculus rift! Just had to update you buddy, jacksepticeye made a video on it a while back. eat your heat out and have fun.

a wrong move by a human :)

yeah, me exactly

No, you can’t really copyright game mechanics

@@ChiptuneDCI thanks god tho

@@ChiptuneDCI Actually, you can pattent game mechanics. It's been done before, although no one really does it anymore.

Only thing i see is the lines under sam’s feet, and only because it was pointed out.

The only noticeable issue is them accidentally leaving audio cues for when they get shot in the last wave.

UR Xyless I noticed at 2:20 you can see his shirt clip through the tire

I’m the purple unarmed Sam who only lifts a pallet up then dies

Pretty much what I was thinking. You set each run, then they keep repeating until unlink, at which point AI takes over. It'd make quite an interesting game

Already is, it’s based in gmod

FYI There is a better implementation of this concept soon to be released: Lemnis Gate.

@@ih8peopleboth ded :(

Hey, if you're still doing that I'd love to know!

Yeah, he did it so he would have an unlinked copy, rather than letting Niko (who know their movements) kill them, but it didn't work anyway.

Michael J Fox He should've killed the grenade guy. That would've worked! xp

Yes he did.

...yes

Jordan Zorbas So its a sort of trial and error puzzle mixed with shooting?

Yeah they couldn't help but do the same thing over and over again until something changed they all became unlinked from the steps they kept repeating

YEAH!!!

Lemnis Gate was better than Quantum League imo, but sadly also died
