I find it strange that the older games had more unique enemies to fight and some even required other drones to operate way more efficiently

[@biggumsliftsv1376]

hell I remember them all using different guns, even the same drone types had variation in attire and weaponry. in gears 1 and 2 they seem more dangerous and intelligent to me while in the 3rd there more or less push overs they said more stuff, shot at where you were instead of knowing where you were, etc etc. been playing these games for 12 or so years, like fallout new vegas I'll keep going back

[@whatintarnationwhuuuut]

@@biggumsliftsv1376 i like to think that drones in gears three aren’t as dangerous because of their desperation and the fact that almost every aingle one of them were starting to contract rustlung, which would certainly affect any soldier’s performance in any sort of battle

[@biggumsliftsv1376]

@@whatintarnationwhuuuut think they'd be more savage, more brutal, more desperate, more mentally disturbed. But yeah, a slow grind until death would likely suit them

[@whatintarnationwhuuuut]

@@biggumsliftsv1376 remember that gears 3 on a timeline is a long time from the sinking of jacinto, they would be fatigued and overall very exhausted more than crazed, plus thats the savage locust more since they broke off, and took refuge in the deadlands, they had time to rest and put up more of a fight

[@XXAnthonyCarmineXx]

@@biggumsliftsv1376well in 3 they went “savage “ since they lost there queen so makes sense idk

[@IsaacLopez-ct5pn]

My favorite locust is the Theron Elite from the RAAM's shadow DLC in Gears of war 3

[@marco8414]

Stuff like this makes me wish that we could have customized basic Drones and Gears in multiplayer in addition to just having the unique characters.

[@clutchbbq4599]

Locust spotter and miner are heavily underrated, ive only seen miner used once in multiplayer and never have seen spotter

[@KingAbzTV]

Had to give the spotter some love so chose him for the thumbnail!

[@oSInfra]

The spotter and miner are in ultimate edition and the miner is also in gears 3. However there was a golden miner skin in gears 3 which was very cool.

[@user-kj6sw3to4m]

If you play long enough you'll see everything

[@tenaciousresistor]

I miss the armored Kantus. They were really unique and fun to fight. I hope they return (a Swarm version maybe?) in future Gears games.

[@seandean4620]

I just miss the enemy diversity those guys represented. Gears 3 was huge in that regard.

[@poisontribal9909]

Drones: bodybuilder Therons/grenadiers: powerlifter Boomers: strongman Karn: CrossFit

[@KingAbzTV]

lmaoo love this!

[@edtheangler4930]

Kinda wack how the devs made so many locust armors and then they have the exact same hp. The shirtless helmetless guy dies from the same amount of fire as the palace guard with a huge head guard and collar looking thing. Then raam with almost the same armor and no helmet tanked like 10 longshots and scorge wearing barely anything tanked endless lancer fire. Would have been cooler if the palace guards for example actually had more hp, kinda like the helmet swarm grenadiers in 5

[@SwesomegamerX]

i hope to see the spotter and the hunter again, they were always among my favorites

[@Salieri01]

The best part of those Gears of war Action Figures were the different armored Locusts you could get, they are really unique and just looking at these images gave me gears 2 vibes that I missed so much

[@garethpilcher8699]

Always happy to learn more about gears!

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

It’s crazy how durable the Locust hides are if you think about it, kinda makes the execution where you beat them down by punching their heads in pretty unrealistic.

[@Tonius126]

Male character doing it is fine since they average 300Ib but I just roll my eyes when the females does it.

[@217adaptiveperspective]

Made more sense in 2 because it didn't pop their head

[@mattmason4013]

Love the therons. So cool looking.

[@Carlos-np7du]

Something that I love about gears of war is how everything and everyone has such unique designs and very cool looking detailed. The locust designs are amazing!

[@AShinyRay]

Lovely video! Hoping in Gears 6 we get customisation for Drones!!!

[@bradenjacobs2755]

The Cyclops Drones look very badass

[@brigpoppa5298]

I like to believe the harsh sand storm eroded the paint as well as the sun bleaching the colors white/sand color

[@brigpoppa5298]

On the savage locust armor

[@Matthew-Anthony]

@brigpoppa5298 That does make a lot of sense.

[@__adamhussain]

Lovin the creative content, keep it up!

[@KingAbzTV]

Thanks bro!

[@gatheringwolves8267]

Gears 2 had the best looking locust, even tho the savage locust also hold a close place in my heart, i enjoyed using flame locust and Theron guards in multiplayer, or kantus.

[@VeteranGear]

How I haven't come across you yet I don't know! Glad I have!

[@KingAbzTV]

Welcome to the channel my friend! Hope you’ll enjoy all the vids, I’m glad to have you on board!

[@jasonck9635]

All the different variants of locusts look cool ! I love these videos ! As I love learning about the locust culture and their tactics in war !

[@vigilmain1087]

thanks i was waiting for this banger. its cool knowing about the best villain ever

[@tonygriggle5569]

I'm surprised the locust didn't use gear armor in Gears Of War 3

[@emryslemon844]

Heyo, not to be that guy, but the savage Theron armor was white due to the bleaching from the sun and the wearing down of the paint. The color just faded out. Anyways, good video nonetheless.

[@_Apostate]

The end to an absolutely golden series. You're a treasure to the the Gears community Abz.

[@KingAbzTV]

Was really fun to talk about all the unique armor from Gears of War, thanks my friend!

[@Brayden-hc1pq]

Now I want to see a game with a stealth part we're you play as a normal civilian. I think that would terrifying especially the boomers.

[@Kamicoin_]

I really loved the miners and the hunters helmet

[@yadielmorales6602]

Another great video. Thank you

[@KingAbzTV]

Thanks I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@individual2122]

I need to play this game series again, my favorite in the series would have to be Gears of war 2. Edit: "this", not "is", geez pull yourself together me.

[@XXAnthonyCarmineXx]

Do you like gears tactics? I love being able to make your own squad with armor n names n weapons so cool n the gameplay is actually really fun

[@bradlyskaggs4215]

Love the video man! Glad you brought up the badass Therons! Savage hunter has a really cool helmet/mask!

[@KingAbzTV]

The Theron’s are so cool bro, thanks for watching man

[@bradlyskaggs4215]

@@KingAbzTV no problem!

[@garrettsmith2654]

Myrrah had badass armor in gears 3. Her helmet in gears 3 is similar to a brute captain's helmet from halo 3 and halo 3 odst. She should come back in gears 6, even though she's dead. Maybe the coalition can make that happen.

[@zidaneuddin]

Locusts are in desperate need of a morning skincare routine 😂

[@khornelordofskulls7090]

is it me or do the Palace Guard's helmets remind me of Halo's elites?

[@yummylumps9401]

Can't wait to see the swarm armour video, yknow my boys got scraps of metal and scraps of metal....oh! And scraps of cloth! Also I thought the Theron sentinel had no visor as well but if you look closely in the pic you showed of the Theron sentinel I actually noticed you can actually just about make out a couple of small eye holes for them too see out of

[@tonyinfinite5174]

Ukkon was a locust of flavor he'd equipped the horde with the best drip for monsters like the Locust

[@db-uq9cy]

I liked the idea from them coming from one of the moons gears 5 saying they human didn't click with me

[@theoriginalcourtice2864]

Great vid 👍

Thank you!

[@elzogalleta3121]

a question, wasnt there a thrashball locust variant at one point in multiplayer? i remember seeing it but it vanished shortly after

[@KingAbzTV]

there was! but of course that's not canon so didn't include it in the vid

[@alexbordelon2352]

Nice video

[@KingAbzTV]

Thank you

[@tyon4187]

i would love to see a general or higher up version of a drone just like how they did RAAM

[@Matthew-Anthony]

General Karn. Uzil Sraak.

[@tyon4187]

@@Matthew-Anthony karn was small in size but very intelligent, but didn't fit the physical profile for a drone, sraak is nearly the same as RAAM, what i mean is something like a locust that LOOKS exactly like a drone or grenadier but is just bigger (and istg you better not say boomer)

[@Matthew-Anthony]

@@tyon4187Boomers and Berserkers.

Do you think we'll ever get Gears 1-3 released on steam?

[@salmonfriend1759]

Hopefully there will be a swarm armor video, and in my opinion, the swarm are the best faction

[@marcelinovillavicenciomend6984]

Honestly I like how the swarm is all savage like but I personally prefer when they were more organized

[@biggumsliftsv1376]

there armor to me seems to value mobility apposed to raw protection. another thought some grub helmets have no openings for sight, the grubs without visitors seem to me to be specialized. We see similar things and supernatural concepts in the real world. They probably don't need to see to see. Dad was in Iraq, said under fire he could perceive everything around him, below, above, behind, beside and of course the front. He drives fast, hes never crashed with me in the car or truck, he attributes this to being able to see around him in circumstantial situations. Those grubs probably do a similar thing, people see them as dumb and savage instead of as the knowledgeable and skillful beings they are. They have a highly developed religious system, and thus a spiritual one, like us they'd have their Buddha's, Jesus's, Prophets etc, think of people like Wim Hoff, men who have developed a spiritual tool kit far surpassing anything around them. Kinda like going into a trances, the things my father and many other men can do and perceive, seeing beyond yourself and into yourself, playing video games in your head far better than anything man can physically produce. shit like that for me I rarely need and lesser want light in the dark, I dont need or want perfect visibility, doing this by feel. I'm a hobbyists, wood and metal worker, I can make things in the dark by feel, can move in the bush without light unlike my friends, its all feel these grubs dont need to see, they see from their heads and feel the rest for beings born and raised in dark hostile environments both are critical, nobody has thought the reason they go sleeveless is because those black blotches they have on their arms and shoulders are sensory organs. probably why Grenadiers go shirtless, to perceive more, they dont wear goggles or helmets like the other grubs besides the fire ones. and the greener (green as in inexperienced) Grenadiers wearing armor. they haven't gotten the ropes yet, not to mention they would, like any ability or skill have to hone it. Previously mentioned Wim Hoff, anyone can do what he does but hes put in the time, like the elites. they've been in the shit long enough. rant over lol, yall have a good day

[@sethedmonds810]

Love your contact but it seems you’re running out of things to talk about you should talk about the gears of war books not many talk about them

[@KingAbzTV]

Thanks bro for the feedback, I don't have many Gears of War lore videos left so wanted to get the last ones out

[@Elnegro..]

Question. The locust are humanoid so one can deduce that they have 🖊️ s, and if that's the case did they ever ra9e female humans?

[@FlamingVaIIey]

Why would they? Female humans look nothing like female locusts and even more so they would probably not have compatible genes for reproduction, not like they wanted to taint their breed with inferior human DNA in their eyes anyways.

[@spaceageGecko]

No.

[@charlottewalnut3118]

You seem to have miss spoken the Locust are the good guys you play as the villains remember the locust are a direct thing that is caused by humanity in gears of war. They are a consequence of human greed them attempting to wipe out. Humanity is not a moral wrong if anything it is a morally correct option because we are literally at fault for their entire existence and they know damn well we would wipe them out given the chance

[@samirwin6010]

I'm a little sad skorg and the guy from judgement weren't mentioned but still good
