I am liking this underappreciated gem. I would like you to make it a series of you keep playing Caliber until you get the Slap Execution. XD Keep on keeping on and I look forward to more videos as usual.
As a fan of SOCOM and Ghost Recon Phantoms, I'm so happy to have Caliber available in the modern day. I'm getting sick of all the generic, casual zoomer shooters lately. Thanks for covering Caliber, Anthony!
Great video! 6:32 the funny looking thing on the helmet is called a "Mitsnefet" (Witch Hat in Hebrew). It's meant to break the silhouette of the helmet and you can very easily attach branches and leafs to it, allowing you to be harder to spot when you hide near bushes and trees.
Beacuse the amount of money and time needed to get even half the rosters open and leveled up for passives is wayy to grindy and wayyyy too expensive. Compared to any other character focused competitive game. We're talking 12-15$ per character and season pass locked characters costing 60$ in total. This kind of pricing makes R6 Siege look child friendly Paladins another F2P game is very generous with its hero pricing for in game currency, and is even more cost saving when buying hero bundles. If f2p's live off player retention and player numbers, being excessively greedy keeps even whales away, and being excessively grindy to get to the main appeal of your game (the operators) then people burn out before getting to the fun depth that comes from having multiple characters maxed out.
The design of the cover mechanics and lack of leaning were an intentional choice by the developers. They tend to release blogs going over design choices and the like with the game every now and then.
I love Caliber. It features a nice variety of special operations units from all over the world with their signature weapons like the DevGru with the HK 416A5, the MP7 and the Sig P226 MK25 Navy.
I really like this game, but i get like 300 ping on this game unfortunately. Im used to having bad ping since companies rarely support south asia as a server region, but this game is especially unoptimized for people far away from servers
When you brought up SOCOM, depression...I remember the multiplayer for a SOCOM game on PS3 that I absolutely loved and enjoyed. Not even a month later it shut down. At least I got a taste even if I was late.
Thank you Anthony, I am enjoying your video here, you are fun and funny. I have had this game for like 3 months but never really played it, because I have trouble trying to LEARN the mechanics at the beginning of a game, like the menu, character setup, etc., etc., etc., etc. I play COD but don't really like it! I'm and OLD man, almost 80. So it is too fast for me most of the time!!! But seeing some game play now I will TRY IT.
a machine gun with ammo is over 10 kilograms at best, an AT-RPG is also about 7 to 15 kilograms, can you imagine having to carry both at the same time?
This game reminds me a lot of an old F2P game called Ghost Recon Online from like 2012. Used to love that game because I was a huge GRAW fan. The slightly in the future but with still familiar guns was an awesome concept. Didn’t even know caliber was a game until this video and I’m installing it atm. Looks fun but the queue times hopefully don’t kill the vibe for me.
Executing an enemy in annihilation gives 2 points on top of the kill that you did so in total is 3. Recruits are very bad. DO NOT USE RECRUITS EVER. Stamina is problematic for new players as a veteran i recommend getting VELOUR as first operator (RAID FRENCH OPERATOR) make him level 12 to get LEVEL 3 SNUG FIT SKILL How skills work in this game: Each operator has its own PERSONAL SKILL : example VELOUR has SNUG FIT (gives 8 stamina / sec if your armor is full) Each personal skill can be equipped on any other operator Each skill has levels , Level 1 , Level 2 , Level 2 (white / green / blue) Also each operator in order to equip more skills you have to level them up further at level 3 you can equip 1 skill and level 7 you can 2 at level 11 you can 3 and at max level you can have 4 skills equipped. SKILLS CHANGE THE GAME COMPLETLY ! TTK changes as well with some skills and combinations. You want a call of duty experience ? Just Run the skills : Readiness , Counterattack and Heavy Barrel (all skills stack BTW 45% damage increase in total) The way to make these max you have to make that current operator that has that personal skill level 12 Basically you need XP and CREDITS to level up an operator. 'This is not a new player friendly game. A max level martelo (15) that has 4 best skills on him can really solo the entire enemy team and can execute enemies instantly also each execution gives him HP / STAMINA and an extra shield that has 40HP. He is one of the best annihilation operators in the game. An average new player to get skills that are actually worth it... can take around 1-2 months of playing EVERY DAY doing dailies and WEEKLIES for the credits. Getting started with a proper build for an operator ... takes 4 OPERATORS to LEVEL 12 and the main OPERATOR level 15 to max an operator you need 420.000 credits, you can get up to 300.000 credits per week by doing the weeklies and dailies (weeklies give the most) As for the battlepass... there are events that award 1000 coins.... sometimes more.... and you can save up the coins to get at least 1-2 battle pass operators...
this game has more players than youd think, especially since coming to steam. the problem is that the only mode thats actively played is showdown. even ranked is big dead
It's been SOOOO long since we got one of these videos, im pumped! Also i played Caliber before, it was interesting and i enjoyed my limited time with it, the developers are REALLY dedicated to the game to the point my steam feed got bombarded with updates for the game almost daily, which saddens me because what pushed me off was the outrageous microtransaction prices (The battlepasses are divided into 4 parts, costing 15 BUCKS EACH) and the very obvious mobile tier pay2win bullshit. Once im off work i'll surely be giving this bad boy a watch, would love if you could review Farlight 84, it's honestly the most silent f2p hit of the year (regular 20k+ players on steam), it's a third person battle royale mobile port that's like the offspring of a one night fling between Apex and Fortnite, it's honestly fun as hell and it's like 10 gigs lmao, would love to know what you think about it!
I remember before Caliber was added to steam you had to obtain it in the main website and they never had a tutorial where u get your first operator you started as recruit just like rainbow six siege and grind money for your first operator XD😂 but hey at least new players can experience their first operators
What are we playing today... ok looks cool I'll have to check it out. Yes, thank you I agree about battlebit and it's insta-kill gameplay. I was really excited for it to.
Hey anthony, nice video as usual! Looks really cool and ive never heard of it. I also have suggestion, dont know if you ever played hunt showdown but you could give that obe a shot. Wayyyy too good for the comparatively small playercount, and literally the best multiplayer shooter i ever played. Maybe you would like it aswell!
It looks great and i love the old socom games but this game reminds me more of metal gear with the perspective change to fpp when aiming.. i will play this game 100%
its not that i dont want play this game ,but i cant even play , everytime i click play its only appear black screen loading idk what happened , i try reinstal still like that
Not sure if it's just me, but Caliber seems to be horribly optimised on mid-range PCs, I've got a 3050 but I can barely scratch 60fps during the slow moments
Anthony I thought you don't review 3rd person shooter anymore? Well I guess this one is new and free but there's a video you make that said your done with 3rd person shooter.
Just because they stole the comms voice over actor, map style and its 3rd person doesn't mean its at all like socom. Anytime someone compares a game to socom and diesnt have lean and instead includes features like ADS and Sprint it becomes clear those people are clueless when it comes to what made socom unique. The other huge huge component of socom cannot be revisited bwcauae society has changed. Now ppl are on discord etc and not in game on mic. The lobby ststem, rdy up, switching teams in lobby allowing for team drafts etc is a huge part of the fun. You would be in a socom lobby with the same ppl mixing up teams and kicking scrubs for 12 hours straight if not more. Regular clans scheduled matches based of grudges they developed in the multiplayer lobbies etc. Ppl will never know what it is to play socom today. Sadly its a wrap, give it up ppl, socommis forever gone. In a very real way socom dieplayed how soft we have bwcome. No game today would allow players to kick other players by vote. Sad
the playerbase is mostly russian sadly, and it is a close community, game overall is great, but has a an interesting skill floor. would like you to make a whole series about it, but with non ru community it'd be hard (i was there since open beta)
This game lets you choose texture resolution before you fully download, so that helps some people at least. With that said, even with the highest texture pack downloaded, it isn't a massive download.
Really, I didn’t try it but that’s surprising. The game is an overly complicated you would think they would allow you to just aim and shoot if you wanted.
@@AnthonyCSN It does, actually. All Steam games have platform wide controller support. You won't have aim assist or anything like that, but in-game controller support is also coming within the next few months. 😎
I installed this game about the time it was launched. The thing is, the server was full of Russians and I could barely get one kill. It seems that you encountered weaker players online than me. Maybe I'll give it another chance.
Actually, the US military is one of the few militaries in the world that have a massively strict ruleset in regards to facial hair. With that said, the very operator he's talking about is in fact within the select few units that allow for it.

@@sionyde2345 Yeah, it was fun. Thankfully Caliber is basically its spiritual successor.

Annihilation has map pick ups that include a team wide revive, which is how you revived out of the blue that one match. 😉
Looks cool. I don’t play a lot of shooter games lately. I might have to get back into playing them again. Thanks Anthony

Good Morning Anthony! ohh nice game, I likey you playin these games! 🙂
'Captain Pierce'
Lmao.
i think when you got instantly revived you got shot by the medic's medic gun
Glad to see ur still posting keep up the good work my guy.
Captain Pierce? CAPTAIN PIERCE?!?!?
*PRICE* Anthony *PRICE*
Hahahaha I know this game has the knock off “Captain Pierce”
6:40 that's the funny israeli helmet cover
I remember before Caliber was added to steam you had to obtain it in the main website and they never had a tutorial where u get your first operator you started as recruit just like rainbow six siege and grind money for your first operator XD😂 but hey at least new players can experience their first operators
Great review. Thanks, Anthony!
You playing even candy crush makes it 1000x more entertaining to watch 🤣
Love your reactions and commentary man 😂❤
Glad to see more uploads
“Wow! Point is scary.” 😂😂😂
What are we playing today... ok looks cool I'll have to check it out. Yes, thank you I agree about battlebit and it's insta-kill gameplay. I was really excited for it to.
I was just about to try this last week, then suddenly my ssd died. Well thats life
you have not hit the free 2 play wall...
I think you should try
" operation harsh doorstep"
Well if 2042 had this much representation with all the different countries it might explode.
Hey anthony, nice video as usual! Looks really cool and ive never heard of it.
I also have suggestion, dont know if you ever played hunt showdown but you could give that obe a shot. Wayyyy too good for the comparatively small playercount, and literally the best multiplayer shooter i ever played. Maybe you would like it aswell!
Welcome Back 🎉
It looks great and i love the old socom games but this game reminds me more of metal gear with the perspective change to fpp when aiming.. i will play this game 100%
eh ive played it abit ping effects the game to much for me, i feel like a dump a mag in .2 milliseconds and the enemy takes no damage
Hey?!!, where is my free lay, lol
Most ppl are just turned off by the mobile game esque animations.
its not that i dont want play this game ,but i cant even play , everytime i click play its only appear black screen loading idk what happened , i try reinstal still like that
I think Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis needs some love and spotlight. Really fun action MMORPG
You know what I really enjoy the gameplay of Phantasy Star, I'm not the biggest fan of MMO's, but the gameplay of that does intrigue me!!!
@@AnthonyCSN it is free to play and has crossplay and cross progression, so there's not much to lose to at least try it out
A pity the enemy AI doesn't work
Really wish anthony would cover polygon, imo the gunplay and mechanics there trump shatterline.
OmG been waiting for a vid bro
Not sure if it's just me, but Caliber seems to be horribly optimised on mid-range PCs, I've got a 3050 but I can barely scratch 60fps during the slow moments
why the dialog in the scene fells like ChatGPT wrotes it. but gameplay is good tho..

You should give Battlebit Remastered a try! Fun time and feels like older Battlefield games!

Pthis game would pop if it was on ps as i remember socoms free to play game i was playing that everyday 😢
I... I remember Medal Of Honor
I think it's a good game. The only problem is, these games are huge and it's kind of annoying to download them for hours.
This game lets you choose texture resolution before you fully download, so that helps some people at least. With that said, even with the highest texture pack downloaded, it isn't a massive download.
YO Why'd you take down the scrap mechanic videos?
The reason I dont play caliber is for the monotonous grind. COD rotted my brain.
Was that chuck noris
Please make more Caliber videos 😂😂😂😂
I miss Medal of Honor man 😭
medal of honor was great!!! one of my favorite games as a teen
Is anyone else here a member even when they’ve never seen this channel before?

Because you don't say hello to them.
Edit: Unlike me, who you said hello to in the comment of a Neebs video.

No one plays it because it got ages to add any other language appart from russian so it died before it was even out
Hey, I paused the video and read that!
Tried it. Its syper janky.
This game is the shit!!!! The only socom / ghost recon online/phantoms replacement
For some reason this gives me pubg vibes and I don’t know why
Dejavu I just downloaded this and then I see a video on it
love caliber
their coulde be a game millions play that is not goood and one no one plays that is the greatest. That Facts right their sir
Looks like Battle Prime... a mobile game. I'm serious. Look it up.
Too grindy
You got both consoles when you were a kid? 😅
No, I had an Xbox that my parents got me, but the PS2 I didn’t get it till like 10 years later so online wasn’t really a thing.
Undawn please Anthony 🤣
Why ? Because it's another disgusting grindfest, no thank you
i unlock all oprator want only play recruit to play i want recruit prestige all other oprators ********
Ugh, 3rdperson shooter with ADS.. always a janky combo
Should ditch either ADS or move to fps proper.
