CLOCK BLOCKERS - A Mind Bending Gunfight

[@Umoade]

That grenade had the longest fuse in the history of grenades

[@tenorsaxophone2012]

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

[@papadikolov1378]

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?

[@SaladBoi37]

+Lucky Loki yeah but the spring was already loose

[@shTree]

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

[@LunarDelta]

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.

[@Nanorobotic]

man that grenade just goes off whenever the hell it feels like it

[@Ivan-dq2xj]

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

[@Nanorobotic]

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

[@kyousey]

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

[@abacadian]

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

[@syweb2]

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

[@mystireon]

at 3:24 you can hear verbal gun noises which I can only assume is ment to queue for Sam and Nicky when to fall over.

[@LynnKing]

"bam"

[@arsenalTV1]

i think it's just ad libs for the song

[@queueue_]

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.

[@hanzenshou5957]

For those that are confused, this is how "CLOCK BLOCKERS" works. There is a commander and 4 units. There are five rounds. The last man standing on the fifth round is the victor. A round ends when time runs out. On round one, both sides control one unit. On the next round, one unit is added on both sides and all previous units are sent to "spawn." The catch, however, is that the old unit(s) (as in not the new one) will follow a predetermined path - the path they followed in the previous round. A unit is unlinked if what they are trying to do is disrupted; such as trying to catch a grenade that isn't even thrown due to intervention. An unlinked unit is essentially free: it doesn't follow a predetermined path and will adapt to the situation. The unit, however, is only unlinked for the current round. The commander joins the fifth and final round. EDIT: This is NOT a game. It's a youtube short film modeled after a game. The closest game to this would be Time Rifters.

[@rocksaregray]

no one is confused my man

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

[@TheLegend-gj5dl]

I personally understood it but well said

[@vinnyharrington188]

this helped me out a lot. thanks.

[@vinnyharrington188]

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"?

[@epically904]

2:59 I love how Niko plays it smart, and unlinks all his units with a wood plank.

[@utuber1752]

I think it was stuck to his hand

[@coldenhanses4249]

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

[@gavinli1368]

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.

[@MichaelMoore99]

@@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.

[@gavinli1368]

@@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.

[@Heedfulconch3]

Someone should model a game perfectly on this Here's how it would work with multiplayer 2 people play against eachother in 5 intervals in the first, they control one unit and try to kill one another, when one dies then the interval ends Each player then controls another unit as the first retraces the steps of the first interval if a previous unit doesn't die when he's supposed to, the AI will take over and use information from previous intervals to kill opposing units The surviving player wins

[@MegaRekless]

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.

[@Heedfulconch3]

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?

[@MacheTheFerret]

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.

[@wyvernio9419]

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.

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 KZbin 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.

[@sebastianreyes7917]

Agreed !

[@christopherknox5576]

This would provide an excellent concept for a real video game.

[@steeledminer616]

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.

[@TASouthpaw]

***** 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

[@steeledminer616]

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)

[@TASouthpaw]

yeah. I really hope this will be a game

[@felsyl5285]

there is Time rift and jacksepticeye played it

[@RedShrt]

At least someone finnaly made a game for this. Quantum league has to be the closest we can get to this

[@Musically_Declined]

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

[@EvanGaoTV]

@@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!

[@Musically_Declined]

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

[@RedShrt]

@@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.

+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

[@grderable]

[@rando5638]

So, let me see if I I know what's happening. The two GMs each summon a soldier in the first round, and they fight normally. Next round, one extra guy is added, and the previous guys have to repeat their previous actions. This goes until the round after all 4 soldiers are used, then the GMs join, being unbound by previous actions. Whichever GM survives, wins. But if a soldier performs an action that prevents a previous soldier from dying/ completing an action crucial to his "cycle", such as the GM blocking the rolling tyre his guy was using for cover/ said guy ambushing the guy who was supposed to kill his ally, they become unlinked, and have free will for the rest of the game. So, basically, you want as many unlinked soldiers as possible for the last round, because having independently thinking units is way more useful than guys bound by scripts. If that's right, this concept is genius- as much a strategy game as an FPS. Good work, Corridor!

I had to use my every brain cell to process this and these 2 people actually choreographed it is really mind blowing

[@makkypakky]

I love how sam just casually shoots his own guy to unlink the other

[@cadencollier9225]

This video makes me feel weird. I love the concept so much. The possibilities...man. There's a mobile game called "Clones" that has the same idea, but doesn't have the unlinked feature.

[@EGOHVCbcn]

I kind of want a game with this concept. Seems fun.

[@Callie_Cosmo]

Already is, a guy made it in gmod

[@b9ost741]

when you finally get what happens after your 50th time watching it

[@RoastBeast]

Saw a game that recently came out with this exact concept called Lemnisgate and had to come back to this gem.

[@hoodiesticks]

Okay, some details I noticed on the 38th viewing: * White Niko only dies once, with his own grenade right at the end * Sam loses almost every round. The only round where he comes out on top is round 4. * The purples do the exact same thing every round, never getting unlinked or killed early. * Blue Sam only fires his gun once, in the final round. * Black Niko never fires his gun at all. Literally the only thing he does is throw the wood. * Black Sam shoots his own (White) unit, to unlink his Blue one. This comes back to bite him, as it ends up unlinking not one but two of Niko's units (White and Orange). Orange Niko goes on to kill the unit Sam just unlinked (Blue), and White Niko goes on to kill Sam.

[@SpicyShokupan]

This would be a fun game. For like a 1 v 1 match you play as each character when its there life and work with previous lives to take down the enemy. In a multiplayer match like 4 v 4 maybe each player can play as one of the characters and work with your teammates to take down the other team I don't know just an idea :P

[@swampwyag676]

It's probably been commented before but I appreciate how you guys hinted at the balance of the hypothetical game, i.e. lower levels of equipment spawning first, the team with the lowest equipment quality overall instead spent the points on the tire strategy

[@Snowi1]

im just over here wondering how they fall down so hard

[@TylerBevanOfficial]

Reminds me of “does not commute”

[@samuraiidol]

this needs to be a real game

[@adt4864]

still easily my favorite short they've done

[@willies545]

so watching this after the react video. unless you know what to look for you dont see the visual effects bloopers at all

[@paddyscone780]

Sorry, but at 3:10 Sam could've easily won! If he could see White Sam, he could also see White Niko! If he chose to shoot White Neko instead of White Sam, both White Sam and Blue Sam would've been unlinked, and White Niko wouldn't have blown up Sam!

[@lag00n54]

a wrong move by a human :)

[@TylerWestinMick]

Ooh, really cool concept!

[@shenanigansandstuff1656]

this was the first corridor video i ever watched and i still come back to it because its amazing

[@GunmadMadman]

Jingles the mighty sends his regards

[@NacnudPinky]

Spoilers below I know how Sam could’ve won Instead of shooting his own teammate he should’ve shot Nico‘s grenade wielder This way both his blue and white players would be unlinked And the grenade are couldn’t have tackled him at the end of the video Here are the weapon types used in the video Sam’s team Purple: unarmed White: shotgun Blue:smg Red: pistol Player: assault Rifle Nico’s team Purple: pistol White: grenade Blue: assault rifle Red: assault rifle Player:assault rifle

[@Callie_Cosmo]

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

[@supergogetamario]

Finally found this video again, i still remember watching this in 2011 and it has stuck around in my mind ever since lol

[@da2ndacc]

the game is called quantum league free in steam

[@TheRealMCD]

Even after 7 years, I still find it mind bending.

[@imagoose1327]

there's a game called quanum league that has exactly this

[@butterybutter7472]

Where did you think they got the concept there was also a Garry’s mod/half-life game like this it was way less professional though

[@sadflix8754]

@@butterybutter7472 i hope you mean where quantum league got the concept because the other way wouldnt make sense also check out lemnis gate, its a turn-based fps thats pretty much like this video

[@Mrstealth93]

So, did they just make their teammates spawn after each kill and they kept doing the same thing over and over?

[@HeadPats-vi7jm]

...yes

[@Mrstealth93]

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

[@derassasq161]

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

[@tivabunny]

I want this to be a game like RIGHT NOW!

[@tivabunny]

better better yet, a multiplayer game :D

[@tivabunny]

Better Better better better... I can't think of anything better then that xD

[@tivabunny]

+Eddie G search time rifters that is what this is

[@tivabunny]

amazing :D

[@CrossRoads23]

say no more, look up "ten second war" on armor games

[@NathanBenedict45]

This is still one of the best and most iconic videos on youtube.

[@ToffiBeans]

Does he kill his own guy at 3:10?

[@Schnozinski]

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.

[@Vdeogamer]

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

[@javennole2375]

Yes he did.

[@alexv1154]

This is known as recursive computing and escalated to infinity would be insane

[@zimma4335]

Still one of my favourite videos of all time

[@psychedellictoxin1195]

The Mighty Jingles brought me here.

[@trere1000]

Clock Blockers Fight Round 1 Purple Niko kills Purple Sam who moves the pallet Round 2 White Niko climbs the pallets Purple Sam moves the pallet Purple Niko kills Purple Sam White Sam takes cover behind pallet and kills Purple Niko White Niko throws grenades and then misses White Sam kicks the grenade away Round 3 Blue Sam kicks the tire away White Niko climbs the pallets Purple Sam moves the pallet Purple Niko kills Purple Sam White Sam takes cover behind pallet and kills Purple Niko White Niko throws grenades and then misses White Sam kicks the grenade away towards blue Sam Blue Niko walks past the tire and kills Blue sam who then blows up Round 4 Blue Sam kicks the tire away, Orange sam takes cover behind it White Niko climbs the pallets Purple Sam moves the pallet Purple Niko kills Purple Sam White Sam takes cover behind pallet and kills Purple Niko White Niko throws grenades and then misses White Sam kicks the grenade away towards blue Sam Orange Sam blows his cover and kills Blue Niko (He was supposed to be killed so he is now unlinked) Orange Niko kills White Sam Blue Sam throws grenade below the truck to kill Orange Niko Final Round Blue Sam kicks the tire away Niko stops tire from moving by sliding a piece of wood under the truck Orange Sam is killed by Blue Niko (Orange Sam was supposed to hide until Blue Niko is about to kill Blue Sam but the tire stop so he is unlinked and therefore caught by surprise because Blue Niko was supposed to walk past and therefore also unlinked) Sam kills White Sam who kills purple Niko (Sam does this to stop him from grabbing the grenade and throwing it to Blue Sam and therefore unlinking him, White Niko is also unlinked because he was supposed to throw it to white Sam in attempt to kill him) Blue Sam (now unlinked) kills Purple Niko (Orange Niko is now unlinked because he was supposed to kill White Sam but he was recently killed by Sam) Orange Niko kills Blue Sam Sam kills Orange Niko Sam attempts to kill Niko but was stopped by white Niko who was unlinked and died by a suicide bomber. NIKO WINS I could be wrong and accidently swapped the names around, plz tell me this so that I can fix

[@cornjobb]

that was a lot of work for nothing. you get the same result by simply watching the video.

[@omnigamer4684]

TheMinePro dude your wasting your life

[@NerdPhil]

2019? Who's still watching???

[@ChilapaOfTheAmazons]

yep

[@aj_steel]

This is something I have never forgotten, such a great video guys!

[@tazraccoon3075]

who watching in 2019 for some old memories??

[@victor2410]

Yep! Can't believe how long I've been following them. So cool to see their stuff evolve.

[@qtcharlieee]

11 years later and still possibly the best video on KZbin

[@wokaroni]

hi charlie

[@kripkrip115]

You can hear a "SAM" at 3:27

[@zacharoninoodle]

That's actually bam. It's them making faux fun sounds

[@hannaraine2005]

Zach Noorman Actually, they didn't edit out the sound properly. "Bambambam" is one of their cues for shooting as is just randomly saying "SHOOTING", as seen in a PRISM BTS.

[@zacharoninoodle]

Codeword Gaming Thats what I said. They were making fake gun sounds. I didn't think I needed to explain why.

[@hannaraine2005]

Zach Noorman Well I am a walrus. Goodnight, Australia.

[@strawberrana]

I'm having a serious case of deja-vu...
