"Operation Big Wave" That Time Knuckles got everyone Killed in Sonic Forces 

Knuckles, the Zapp Branigan of the Sonic universe.

Everything wrong with Sonic Forces

Charii5 😂

Knuckles "Oops! All Rookies"

The rookie: oh shit😟😦😦

Rookie: WHOA WHOA, HELLO THERE!!! WHY ME THO

More than likely the case but it's still not a good look for our boy.

@@SGWolfie yeah they shouldn't butcher his character like that

When I heard that I knew knuckles fucked up

I love your idea actually. Knuckles being the one to train people and motivate people on and off the battlefield is right up his alley. He's like a general you'd use not so much a commander you'd have organizing plans and strategies.

@@SGWolfie Drill Sergeant Knuckles trains forces at Fort Knux. on Angel Island.

You know who would be perfect for the role of commander? Vector. He's an experienced leader, clever, and doesn't just charge ahead to bash every problem in front of him.

king cat99 very dirty I could of sorry for knuckle they treat he like that in the pass he can make a good leader .

Knuckles is one of the many causalities of the current writing team sadly.

80 % of poeple Dead They really made knuckle this bad

I find out from other youtube shadow was not a edgy lord at all and this is what we did to shadow . And tails was ruin by sonic team It got to hell for them

At least he wasn't comic relief. Or at leas he wasn't intended to be

Paul Dunbar I understood that! I understood that reference!

Like Sally

True, the IDW comics have really done a good job retroactively explaining and fixing a lot of Forces narrative issues.

Werewoof Reactions still sucks that the main narrative issues are being solved by a comic series

Amy had a history of immaturity and recklessness. She's an even worse choice. The only game where she remotely shows good leadership skills is Heroes, and even then, it's not much.

@@MechaKnuckles I think Vector should have been the leader.

Knuckles should be stronger than sonic, I hate how segas making sonic”the best” in every thing he does and it would fit better with Sonics team Sonics speed, knuckles is strength and tails is brain

@Revived Mo No knuckles is sonic's polar opposite. Both sonic and knuckles originally have completely opposite personalities. Sonic is all about adventure, living life on the edge, and plainly not following the rules. Knuckles is the exact opposite by wanting to stay in one place and guard the master emerald. Shadow is way too similar to sonic. Also speed isn't everything, Knuckles has skills too that can match sonic. They have more battles where when they fight it becomes a draw.

@@DavidYoung.04 no lol

Knuckles should be stronger than Sonic but he is not. Knuckles also is in no way the polar opposite of Sonic and as soon as his arc in Sonic Adventure was wrapped up that was not the case. While Sonic does love Adventure, after Sonic Adventure, Knuckles learned to lighten up and not stay only guarding the Master Emerald, also, Knuckles in the games has only ever canonically beaten Sonic once, while Sonic has defeated him numerous times. Knuckles can’t be Sonics polar opposite since after the Adventure games, he joins Sonic against many of his adventures like he did in Sonic Heroes when he had no need to or even in the game being mentioned in this video (Sonic Forces) when he’s leading the resistance instead. Sonics polar opposite is Shadow because Shadow is always doing a job while Sonic only ever does what he wants and loves free. Also Shadow, unlike Knuckles, has actually beaten or matched Sonic multiple times. He also beat Silver who when first introduced, was originally more powerful than Sonic. I agree that Knuckles shouldn’t be a bumbling idiot like how the games have portrayed him the last decade and they should take notes from how the Sonic movie sequel seems to show him as an actual powerful character and that it should be highlighted that his power is equivalent to Sonics speed but in strength but the fact is that this hasn’t been the case in the long time. And even if it was, he could never touch Sonic in theory because Sonic is too fast for him now that he has a good grasp on his powers

Their writing style worked well for Colors as a lighthearted entry in the series but not so much for this 'war' story.

@@SGWolfie eh, even then it's a very mixed bag I'd say. On one hand, Eggman's PA announcements in-game are great and full of sometimes corny, sometimes dark humor and those really fits Eggman's character and are by far the game's highlight in writing. On the other hand, every cutscene with Sonic and Tails feel stale and drags on way too long trying to make bad jokes for 5 years old while doing nothing but stand around.

They gave him respect in sonic heros, Sonic free riders and 30th anniversary sonic comic

"I've got a full proof plan for us to stop Tyrese for good. We're calling it Operation: Die-rese 😊😅😂.

It was a complete coincidence I swear!

Well to be fair, Knuckles had quit the resistance and put Amy in charge so he could go back to Angel Island before the Virus outbreak happened. The metal virus isn't his fault there.

@@SGWolfie I meant that the loses they suffered there left them undermanned for dealing with the virus.

Hey Archie Sonic characters actually thought long and hard about their strategies to prevent slaughters like this. even in the absolute worst parts of Archie Sonic no one was ever this dumb.

No. To "wipe out" your enemies in battle is to mean WIPED OUT. Dead.

I'm pretty sure they do mean KIA. Sonic games don't shy away from death. And Knuckles Branigan here is the cause of it all.

So I looked up and no, it was the same with serious thought of about a minute behind it. I hate Forces...

Localization had been fucking things up since the first game, western Sonic is not Sonic.

Because he's the leader of the Resistance. This was his plan. And it resulted in over 80% of their forces lost. That's more than a strategic error, that is strategic failure. Knuckles is not a good leader.

Strategic error to plan in only a minute and a half?
