As an Arsenal player from 2018, it was really fun growing up, watching this game grow into popularity was really the best time. Especially when Covid hit everything had a shift. Like TanqR, Castlers (who soon got caught with trigger Bot), John Roblox, jjwaikes, bandites, and many more were fun to watch and to entertain us.
The whole Castlers using triggerbot situation actually never been solved since the accusations turned out to be staged or edited in some sort of way and there has never been a confirmation from a rolve dev or Castlers himself. He might be using one, he might not be
god i miss arsenal... but i've moved on and i can't justify coming back with my current workload and depression... thanks to everyone who made arsenal a great place prior to the toxic competitive scene. And those who supported me.
I remember when Arsenal won game of the year, and released purple team publicly. The good old days of Arsenal when godly youtubers like TanqR were still playing.
This game really is legendary. I live in Turkey so neither Halloween or Christmas is celebrated that much here. This game is the reason I love both of these holidays. I enjoyed the events so much. So sad to see it in this way.
i played this game during quarantine and this is all i would play and im slowly fading away from the game the end legit had me in massive tears and all the youtubers we had along the way sadly play other games but i just wish one day they all return back to this game, awesome video btw!
As someone who started playing arsenal at a library in like 2019 I can say prime arsenal made me the best memories I will never forget. I remember getting my first win in like 2019 you don't know how happy I was
@@GnarlyPickle nah man the 2021-2022 period when all the og arsenal RU-vidrs started quitting I was Soo sad bro like my childhood was quiting the game like tanqr, bandits, truthbehindthelies, skeleton pro, donotwakethenoob, Exodus og and many more I forgot they're names
watching this makes me realize that the literal only few months that i took a break from arsenal were also the few months that the game had the most cosmetics EVER (im stuck with boring skins)
Seeing the game's progress in 2021 felt to be quite a pain for me since I had put alot of faith in them back then, only for many things to be delayed or scrapped (with some reasons i could understand, while others not). For 2024 I really want this game to be at its peak popularity again, but something is telling me the game has already gone to the point of practically being dead with time, with many chances of redemption already being wasted.
the attention to detail and depth you put into this video is amazing. i’ve been playing arsenal for fun for awhile and didn’t realize it had such a backstory, your explication in this is absolutely flawless.
yo brotha amazing video. respect to you for doing all this research. something funny is that i have some stuff from 2017 then i took a big break the returned in 2020 lol. I really want the thriller emote but i didnt get it ;(. i wish they would bring it back. maybe an idea for a new update would be "The Flashback Update" or something like that. I think people would LOVE that. anyways amazing video
bro i remember you from back when you had like 1.5k subs and i watched your streams every weekend and i remember when u used to bash out ToH bro you've come a long way brother, respect! btw keep up with yyour MTB bro
this is the first time i see your channel but you have definetly earned a new subscriber and thank you for this amazing piece of content im gonna be completely honest this is the best youtube video i've seen all year that outro was just amazing wow thnak you again for this master piece❤❤❤
As an Arsenal player who started off as a delinquent from 2019, I was enjoying every moment of Arsenal from update to another update and it hyped me up especially when it was a christmas update because everyone would be on Arsenal playing and having fun. Unfortunate my journey had to come to an end in 2022 when I started exploring other games such as Deadline, Bad Business and many more shooting games. Once I played those gmaes alot I came to forget all about Arsenal and how much I loved playing it. Now I saw this and seeing your tribute (27:40) I thought about going back and yes I did eventually go back and even though I lost my skills, I am so damn happy Im back.
I just stumbled upon this vide right after the hunt ended, and watching this really does make me believe arsenal has a chance to come back this year,, this video was amazing!
0:57 Wanna correct something here, Arsenal was based on the Counter Strike mod, Gun Game, as Arsenal used to be called "Gun Game". Arms Race was a gamemode that copied the Gun Game mod, but it was for CSGO's official matchmaking.
i remember playing it in 2015, was never good enough to win tho :P 2:01 you were actually supposed to get 200 damage to level up, this is why godmode hackers were a blessing
tbh as an old arsenal player that made content (reaching lvl 690) was in mutiple leadborads etc. It was a fun game back then. The youtubrs trolling around, the tourneys it was exceptional. Now sadly tbh i dont think arsenal willl evr go back to its peak.
as someone who’s spent way too much time playing this game (reaching level 1260) i agree. However i do believe arsenal can come back, particularly the youtube scene. We will see however. Thanks for watching :)
yhh but like the viw count wont be as high as before.@@GnarlyPickle Also W story u should make on different games or u can do history of competitve side of arsenal
As for me as a 2020 Arsenal player its been really fun playing arsenal from 2020-2023 and throughout those years its been great playing my favorite Fps Game in roblox.
i started playing this game around march 2024, though i played it for the first time in 2021, when i first made my roblox account, i only played the game once around 2021, 2022 and 2023. i always thought it was a good game but never got into it until now. this game has a rich history and a dedicated fanbase which isnt bad like other games. i feel like ive missed out in alot. i hope the game doesnt die out atleast so i can have something unique too.
Every time I play it now I can only do so for like 20 minutes, I just can’t find the enjoyment anymore maybe it’s because I’ve grown or maybe my likings have changed but old arsenal will never be forgotten it will always have a special place in my heart, what a video btw great watch 😄
AYO WHAT I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS 26:27 and looks like that's never gonna happen sadly :( Damn end of the video made me realise how much I miss peak arsenal
the skin is finished they are just trying to figure out how to make it work when the owner of the UGC decides to resell it and i am the 1445th player to get all treasures so i cant wait to get it
games like this are what got me into a large genre of shooter games, such as TF2, CS:GO, and Warzone. I used to main arsenal every day during lockdown and i had fun every single time! im sad to see the playercount so low though :(
Fun Fact: Arsenal used a Engine from one of Rolve’s Former games (Now branched of to Downy Studios) that hard the same engine as Typical Colors 2 but slightly more modified. Also Mobile hitboxes from I wanna say 2018-2020 where broken (they where heavily extended and gave an unfair advantage to PC players) I played around 2019, and honestly the game has changed much over the years. I enjoyed this video, It was pretty informative.
Votekicking existed as far back as 2019 (no footage exist of it), 2020 and 2021 (not sure about those years). you also forgot to mention the “work at a pizza place” and “adopt me” collaborations, Valentines 2019 and the Arsenal Anniversary update. I have all the anniversary skins, I’ll be happy to show you them.
Kinda quit playing the game on 2021 around the time the "wake up" code was added, i keep coming back to the game here and there but i just cant seem to get that feeling that i got when i played the game from 2018 to 2021, but i will say this without Arsenal, without Tanqr, GDlives and Bandites dang i would have never been addicted to this game, and never had improved my aim💀 I may not be playing it anymore but Arsenal will always have a special place in my heart☺️
Used to play this every day. When I woke up, when I got back from school, even during school sometimes. Fair to say, *I played enough.* Though sometimes I do still play a round or two, just for nostalgia.
I grew up playing arsenal, I watched it transform over the years from its csgo origins to it own take. I personally can’t tell if fhe game has gotten better or worst. I think they still kept the skin grind really fun but some of the newer maps just suck.
I mean I don't really care if updates are good or bad, I'm just here for the fun of it. Recently I've not been able to play roblox for a very long time because my computer has been having some issues which involves fps dropping MASSIVELY even when I'm not playing a game. I really miss playing Arsenal but I think it's good for me since that would be the ONLY game I would play all the time ever since my best friend introduced it to me in 2022. Ever since then I've been practicing, getting better at the game and grinding levels. I'm kinda worried about how much my skill might've gone down since I stopped playing but once I fix my issue I will be on that game 24/7 once again.
Before seeing the history of the modern version, I just wanted to say that I vaguely remenber playing Gun Game on my old ROBLOX account, but that's about it. As for one of the older versions of Arsenal, I can remember it very well, even more since younger me recorded a video of it. I used to remember when you could just stand in your team's spawn area and get kills easily, since back then a forcefield was in effect until you left your spawn area. There was also a dramatic sound everytime you died as well. (Which is still pretty true, but only if you get knifed.) Used to show your stats every time you spawned too. (Don't think there was a menu back then.) Think I had around 600+ or 800+ kills before.
I personally started playing arsenal basically around new years, 2020, when I had JUST got a brand new iPad, and decided to play Roblox on it. I found it fun and all, but didn’t really take it seriously because it was hard to play on iPad. Then, I decided to use the claw method, and actually got REALLY good at the game, so I continued playing it and practicing my skills as an iPad player A LOT during covid, and the next two years. Then, updates slowed down, and I got pretty bored of playing it casually, so I started to play a bit competitively n stuff, in 1v1s, etc.. to this day, I still have the same iPad I got four years ago, but it is EXTREMELY cracked and shattered (but still good enough to play on). I slowed down playing arsenal, and I actually haven’t played it in about 2 months now, and I think it’s finally time for me to quit it totally. Arsenal is a huge nostalgic game for me, despite me only started to play it in 2020.
I love the idea of a paid battle pass, which players had to grind for battle bucks or grind expecting that there would be a paid battle pass for next event, and 15k would be an ideal price 25k if it's a huge battle pass, and for me, I got 350k, I wouldn't mind spending 50k for a battle pass if it had enough items
I remember october 2020 update, I somehow got into a server with all the rolve admins and creators, it was INSANE. (I think I used a plugin which let you join players' games even if they had joins off, I'm pretty sure the owner of this plugin took it down)
As a former Arsenal player since 2020 and low fps player, it has become one of my favorite Roblox games, I have grown a lot in this community, And also one of the best times when the game was very active after the season 3 summer update, and I also became a little known in this community for the leaderboard videos and As a high level player, and I officially quitted arsenal on August 2023, So I'm about to return back again to arsenal and making arsenal content again, And my goal is to reach level 1,000 even though my current level is 643 and career kills are 200k, But I'm focusing on being a staff member on the DaFuq!?Boom! Discord server, But I'm about to buy a new PC in a few months, and I will be resigned from the DaFuq!?Boom! Discord server when buying a new Pc and officially returning to arsenal and making arsenal content, and yes I will stop playing after I finish all my game progress. And I'm happy that I'll be returning to the community soon, so stay tuned. :)
Just came to this video God damn 2019 was 5 whole years ago, when I first started playing arsenal and also 2020 lockdown days were crazyy Spending 15+ hours a day playing and grinding the hell out of arsenal
