it's a shame that the Purge movies mainly focus on people using it to kill others, rather than the vast array of other potential crimes that they could do
@@ceasarcruz8312 in another how to beat video on a different purge movie it was suggested that since the purge fell on the day that you need to send your taxes in people could just cheat on their taxes and gat a large return
“All crimes are legal for the next 12 hours”. Me and the boys stealing hundreds of millions and fleeing to a country that isn’t insane to live out the rest of our lives in absolute luxury while physically harming nobody. Honestly have no clue why everyone in these films is so caught up on the violence aspect rather than making bank and getting out.
You have seen the other movies right. There's people hunting you for fun. You'll die before you break into the bank. And the banks would be closed. And most big business people would flee and the small business owners would stay like in the Purge Election Year but even if you did break into the store they would protect their store and you'll die or die by someone else going around killing people
@@elcheapo572 In other words, pretty much any riot that's happened in the past few years after a minority was killed by police. "Protest" my ass. It was rioting. Destruction of property, looting, arson, vehicles being flipped, all done by the masses. Just do what MatPat said ~ fabricate the numbers on a tax return and file on that night. Wait a while and get the huge payout later. After that move elsewhere while simultaneously crippling the economy by a margin.
hiding in an apartment already cleared by the death squad would be a good hiding place, if they could get in before backup arrives. Alternatively, making your apartment look like it's already been destroyed and empty, the soldiers won't waste time searching, and will likely move on to the next apartment
That's a good point. Since there is only 2 hours left, their goal is to kill as many people as possible. Because of this, they're probably not going to waste time looking for people who are hiding.
How to beat the first purge: have connections to protect yourself while being prepared, if you wanted to get in the cruise you could've died because of the nffa so don't.
* 1 hour left before purge * HowToBeat: If only Isiah knew advanced criminology tactics, then he could research not only who Skeletor is, but his known enemies, location, and behavior
@@Odyssey-ot6nb If we're assuming he decided on revenge because of the humiliation and the razor blade slash, that happened the very same day of the purge beginning, so it wasn't a case of Isaiah taking too long to prepare, it was just a case of the incident which started it all was just too close in time to the purge beginning for it to be efficient and thorough
I love rain coat man. he is the best charecter ever- like he spent the time to modify a gun onto a water gun just to prank people during the goddamn purge-
How to beat the purge, the purge election year, the first purge, purge anarchy, and POSSIBLY the forever purge (SHORTENED): GET A PASSPORT AND GET THE HECK OUTTA AMERICA!!! BRO THE LIKE COUNT IS CRAZY
I would definitely spend the purge alone. You never know someone's intentions but also the more people are gathered around me, the easier it would be to get killed. I wouldn't even stay in my own house as people would know where I live.
feel like being alone is a double edge sword. sure there's no one that can betray you but with more people(specifically crowds).its much easier to get away if things get dicey even just a group of 2 by spliting up you force the purgers to split up,or you can plan a trap. while alone everything is on you and if you f up(which im.not physically fit so in a fight i would) your screwed. best thing to do is stay at already looted places so people won't search there
This man would definitely survive anything killer zombies, death games, the purge, etc. He is literally so smart bros gonna be the next Albert Einstein. Also, have a damn good day!
can i suggest you guys do a how to beat on the 2017 korean drama save me? it's about a religious cult, and it's super intense. it'd be good to see your breakdown as how to survive it.
When you´re fighting in home you can use a microwave as a bomb by putting a cutlery inside as well as some cleaning products. You can make the explosion even bigger by making gas to leak, while you hide in a bath tub. When they walk in you can also use a fridge as a shield as the thicc fridge door can stop a bullet.
You’ve been watching too many movies… metal doesn’t turn microwaves into bombs, that’s ridiculous, at best you make a fire and break the microwave. Also most fridge door aren’t stopping a bullet, maybe a .22, one of the smallest common pistol rounds, but I doubt anything bigger then a 45 is being stopped. And a modern bathtub is most likely made of fiberglass, especially if it’s in a cheaper house, which is fire resistant but probably isn’t standing up to a gas explosion
This video was posted the day after I went to the hospital for jaw surgery and I just got to watching it today and it was very calm and relaxing and really made me feel good during my recovery period...so thank you.
So did Skelator survive? Even though he was an antagonist in the movie, dude still took out a good amount of NFFA members in the apartment. Hadn’t he been there the scenario would’ve been much different. Give credit where it’s due
It would've been cooler if Dimitri and his gang wore the clothes of the mercenaries after purging them, and then using a coding stripe to tell who'd on their team and who's the enemy. Those bright orange hazard things that warn drivers from things like mailboxes would be a good mark to use. It could be on the arm, front of the sleeve. It'd give them an advantage at purging the mercenaries, and you could always change the color mark in between purges.
I’ve never understood why the purge focuses on murder, honestly that’s the least attractive crime to commit, life in prison is a pretty lax punishment when compared to murder and you also don’t gain very much from killing someone. Seems like financial crimes or theft have punishments of years in prison and they also benefit you in some way so those should really be more common then murder. Now maybe there’s not much to do on a isolated island (legally isolated not physically) but surely in the movies where it’s an entire state there would be ample opportunity to plan all year to commit mass bank robberies, fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, theft, the list goes on. Bottom line is there’s so many better things to do when there are no legal consequences and murder seems like it’s at the bottom of the list
I think financial crimes are more difficult to commit since banks have good securities and you need hacking technology. Robbing may be more practical but it can escalate to violent crimes.
@@phatmusic yeah, I agree. I more so mean that the world building should have shown more of the mundane crimes that we all recognize people would prefer. As the movies stand now, it’s a large amount of normal people going on killing frenzies. I think the world building would be more interesting if they showed more realistic crimes being committed then showed the more depraved stuff. It would make it more realistic and therefore more interesting psychologically. The films are like parody or caricaturization of humanity which makes the movies more comical to me then something I can take seriously as a film. Maybe that’s what they were going for but considering how many movies are in the franchise I wish they had focused a little more on the realistic aspects so that the unrealistic stuff hit a little harder.
The Purge movie's weren't that bad, the only problem is that you have to watch all of the stuff including the short lived series they had out but it's a good universe that you could use for all kinds of movies set in it. Have a dam good day
How about this: If you are a hider, go to somewhere where it is desecrate or where NO PEOPLE ARE. The ones killing are more likely to go to places where lots of people are. So if you run into anyone, there is a high chance they aren’t willing to murder anyone.
Seriously, how are five thousand dollars attractive to make someone willingly participate in a death game ? The chances of dying are extremely high and the money would last a few months at most !
To be fair, if it wasn't for the government death squad it wouldn't be a death game, just a bunch of people doing meth You have a couple crazy people, 1 cereal killer and perhaps the gangs to worry about, that's an average night in Brazil
@@jaelynrose2691 Minus the rent and monthly expenses, not much will be left of it over a long period ! I get that these people are struggling but the drawbacks outweigh the reward !
@@alijabbar5794 in the movie, plenty of people are taking the money and just agreeing not to hurt each other. If they'd also gotten local gangs to assist as protection, they would have been relatively fine had it not been for NFFA's hired guns.
Excellent video, as usual. However, I'm not sure about that whole 'stalk Skeletor' idea. On paper, you are absolutely correct. The main problems are as follows : First of all, how much time exactly does that character have to study Skeletor, before the Purge experiment even starts ? Second of all, if everyone will practically be given free range, how do we even know Skeletor will hang around the same places as usual, during the Purge experiment ?
Arson, shoplifting, buying and not registering a pet. I wouldn't commit any crimes if there were a purge, but burning a bonfire for fun in a relatively controlled environment could give you the opportunity to cook smores.
- Another video has mentioned harvesting and selling organs from dead bodies as a great way to make money ( as it usually isn’t legal without consent from donors) Other lucrative low-risk options include - Hacking banks or other large corporations within your country - Counterfeit ( just make them during the purge and use them after.) - Art or valuable artifact theft/ forgery - Poaching valuable animals ( wild or from your convenient local zoo) - Doing illegal/unethical scientific experiments during the hours it is legal.
Malicious Mischief/Destruction of Property: This goes without saying. I'm stealing all of your spark plug wires, siphoning your gas tank, keying up your vehicle, breaking windows, et cetera. If I'm going to commit a crime, I'm going to do something that is painful to a person I particularly dislike, though non-lethal because I'm not a complete monster. Destruction of Public Works: Who hates streetlights and signal crossings? Going into City Hall and destroying their server racks? If we're going to do something weighty, let the government feel the sting. They can't charge you for it after all. Assorted Tomfoolery: This includes Public Intoxication (Disturbing of the Peace), Hacking, and other things which are particularly noxious but largely nonlethal. *I'll also take your TV remotes and network cables because I'm particularly spiteful like that.* The Purge as a movie series could be so much better if it didn't go straight to murder you know.
honestly the first step being "get paid for killing skeletor" made me think of a merc doing their thing on the purge, and itd probably be more interesting to follow a mercenary openly advertising killing people on the purge but i guess thats asking too much from the people that made the purge
Its snitching if he was part of the NFFA. He's going against the NFFA so it wouldn't be snitching. It would also be snitching if he was part of the government. He would be called a witness in this situation. The gang against the government. He has to get the upper hand. Thats what a real gang LEADER would do. Lead 👍😎👍
bro imagine you played games until 6 AM the day before the purge and slept through the entire day just to be woken up to some gangster pointing a gun at your head and you just peed your unicorn pajamas 💀💀💀
I don't blame you I like the concept and even though I liked the second movie and last movie they do the same writing, tricks and "emotional" character deaths plus in reality the purge would just hurt and bankrupt the government
It would work but it's insane to allow all crime aside from certain ones for a night, yes thered be low to no crime on other days, but its just madness
@@lostinthesoup I think the entire point was that if they had one night of releasing all of their violent urges then the rest of the year would be more peaceful?
I always just laugh at the Purge movies. I mean, I get how the Purge can happen. I've been in a shopping centre during a blackout haha I know how quick shit can escalate but.. How does it sustain itself _after_ the Purge?! It's gotta be a wild thing for the builders and cleaners to try and have to put everything back together in 364 days before it just gets utterly destroyed again a year later -.- It's the little things of the Purge world building like the Purge insurance that blows my mind hahah how _huuuuge_ the premiums would have to be to be able to afford paying out all the claims during the Purge, it would destroy the economy in like 2 years *EASY!* Inflation of goods and services to cover the insane costs associated with the destruction one night of chaos would cause would make it unsustainable so damn quickly it would make the new founding father's heads spin!
Was cutting the power to the building really such a good idea ? Normally, heavily prepared kill squads have night vision goggles. If anything, you're just increasing their advantage. It turned out differently in the movie, but, normally, they should have been properly equipped.
As soon as the purge starts I'm going to the commit tax fraud or something to make a million dollars. Then I'm gonna hide in the dumpster or something like that. It'd actually be really interesting to see what a bunch of non-violent people would do during the purge if there wasn't a bunch of mercenaries.
you cant commit it as soon as it starts, you can fail to submit your income tax though. but only before the purge, and the purge is only 1 night so there isnt even much time to do it.
11:40 "The whole point of a gun is that you can kill someone far enough away that they can't reach you" I thought the point of a gun was called the bayonet
The bank ideas are cool and all but they say no attacking fed buildings I think it is safe to say that they would shift it to a federal bank before the night
It's pretty easy, just leave Staten Island. You don't need a car, you can walk from one end of SI to the other end in less than half a day. Get off the island before it starts and then come back the next day.
@11:40 ish. Handguns, especially small ones, are difficult to aim at the best of times, without proper training their range is actually fairly limited. True, the kid was WAY too close to the psycho, even ten feet would have been close enough to do the job, easily, and would still have been far enough away that even if the psycho threw his weapon, he'd have to get REALLY lucky for it to do any real damage; it's not exactly a large weapon so it can't hold much kinetic force per the average throwing speed of the human arm.
i love to see you survive in any of the purge/war/zombies or any of this shit. As much as i love this channel, i don't think you will survive unless you got plot armor. You can only plan when you knew what are going to happen. IRL you just one of the dead body that were lying on the street.
As a avid wacther of film theory, I'd do what Matpat recommended, which is to organ harvesting all the corpses that the purge. Like seriously, did no criminal gang in the purge universe think of this?
I just love how everyone is saying that in real life, murder would be the last option. Tax fraud, robberies, and other minor crimes will unfortunately lead to death. Do you really think merchant's are gonna let you just steal ftom them?
Tbh this should have been the first and last Purge movie. All the others after this took the fun out. Also never get a vendetta when you can’t even pull a trigger.
The Purge: theres one hour left. How to Beat: "Dmitri would survive if he knew the tactics of Oda Nobunaga, a medieval Japanese story of a out numbered battle."
can’t stop thinking it’d be hilarious if instead of saying “and this was whomevers biggest mistake” he just got a thesaurus and changed “biggest” every single video 😅
Idk, erase student loans, steal a new computer do paperwork for a new house, give yourself insurance, raid a car dealership, invade and rob an amusement park. Threaten your professors into letting you through the exam on your final year of uni. Why kill?
