Gray Zone Warfare will most likely take over the internet if it ever gets out of early access. Gray Zone gameplay does everything Tarkov gameplay does but in an open world setting that causes unhinged outcomes. It would be funny if I weren't losing all of my loot constantly. Multiplayer open world mil sim extraction shooter is endless chaos and Gray Zone is all of those things turned up to 11. It's realistic, it's raw and it's impossible to extract, I literally still have not extracted one time, this is not a joke...

it's honestly so beautiful that you had no idea how to call in a chopper and were just embracing the chaos
90% of your problems with the game resulted from you fundamentally misunderstanding the heli system, and I find that hilarious
HOW DO I DO IT!!!!!
@@ducksstirling9597 open map, find LZ you want to go to, press it, call in heli. It's not fucking rocket science.
@@ducksstirling9597 Left click the LZ you want to go to and the helli will come to the closest LZ to you (the base included)
It’s stupid how they did the helicopter system man I love wanting to play the game but it’s real hard when there’s at least 2-4 extracts that I can’t go to or else I get insta killed as soon as I step off the helicopter and they change server to server
Had to go back a few secs to make sure I heard him right... yeah thats a big oofta on the heli system, but ill give it to ya since the game tells you nothing abouy it
You can call helicopters whenever dude. And you can play in PVE servers where your buddies can’t do team damage to you
but what's the fun in that? games are funny BECAUSE of the friendly fire.
Competence is Cheating. This is smoothbrain territory.
@@manboy4720 nah dude, its not funny in a looter shooter where people see more benefit in killing team mates then finding enemies.
@@manboy4720 It only works in looter shooter if there's a good enough "tit-for-tat" system for team killing. For example in Tarkov, if you kill a fellow scav, you suffer great trader penalties which are very undesirable. However, sometimes you come across a fellow scav with a million ruble gun on them, and in that case, it might be worth to take the trader penalty to get the loot, even if its scummy
edit: might've been just a bug on my end, not sure anymore if this is legit. PvE mode is also a good option until they sort out the crashes - if you get disconnected or the game crashes, you don't lose your loadout! :)
Just in case this doesn't get brought up again (I am only 1:45 into the video). Helicopters are not random. You call them in by opening the full map (Tab and then select "map", or Hold M [Tapping M brings up the smaller half-screen map]) Then click on the LZ you want to go to and a window will appear in the top right corner with a button to "Call Transport". At this point the a helicopter will go to the nearest LZ to where you currently are, to pick you up. You can go from your base to any LZ, from any LZ back to base, and from any LZ to any other LZ.
Also as an addition to this comment, you can't extract on a helicopter that is dropping off other players, they don't return to the base, they just fly off the map. Friendly fire and LZ camping is also a huge issue in the game, but the game does offer a purely PVE mode that has friendly fire disabled that can mitigate this issue while we hopefully wait for a fix. Your progress is the same in both modes.
I think he was trying to be funny or something?
@@thefryinallofus It's possible, and he does call a helo later briefly, but this is to confirm for folks who know nothing about the game, or people who are maybe having the same issue. I've seen plenty of folks who don't know how to use them either XD
That’s a terrible system ngl
This game has no tutorial and the tooltips are bonkers so here's a couple notes: 1) you can call a helo to take you to landing zones you've discovered, and everyone starts with the closest one I believe, at least, I started with Charlie 1 unlocked on the map. B) friendly fire is on but too many friendly fires results in a force kick from the game. A friend of mine found this out the hard way when we engaged some friendlies who we didn't realise were friendlies and he got kicked after killing two of them. iii) its early access, the crashes suck but they're inevitable. I know a lot of people are coming to Gray Zone from Tarkov after the controversy with that game, but Gray Zone has had way less development time and is very clearly a work in progress. If the game was a full release and still played like this well that would be another story.
Nice comment with the good tips and the varying intersectioning (idk if that's a word, but you know, 1, B, iii, it made me giggle)
Ah yes, a game where I can live out lawless PMC fantasies in my favourite fictional county: Laos...
i play pve mode, it's fine there. just like coop mmo. pvp attracts all the d-u-l-l-a-r-d-s
@@cagneybillingsley2165 Yeah... I haven't even played the game but the fact that friendlies straight up kill you on sight even when visibly friendly is nuts and doesn't sound remotely fun.
Wait a minute…
Note to Self: Laos does *not* exist.
@@p00ner1sm So are ya Chi-nese or japa-nese? The ocean? What ocean?
this video makes the youtube bitrate cry for mercy
Seriously, my eyes actually hurt after only watching the first 2 minutes 😭
7:01 not a single bullet in that mag
Agreed
Habie you can call in the helicopters. You absolute smoothbrain. Just click on the yellow thing, specifically the one at your base. You did not need to waste an hour. I am sorry. Edit: 1- Obligatory thanks for top comment (and on a Habie video?!?!?!?!), I appreciate the conglomeration of braincells liking my comment required 2- Thank you @habie147 for your kind, considerate, confused reply, I expected nothing more 3- Check the responses to your reply. I do not even *own* Gayzone so I am not the most qualified to explain exactly how it works, but the gist is that you have to click where you want to go, not where you are. The heli will then come to the closest Landing Zone to take you to the Landing Zone you selected. 4- Yes, "Gayzone" was intentional
I genuinely laughed out loud when he said that they couldn’t be called
the trick is to hold down M to get hte big map
And the LZ isn't random, you can select where the helo will take you lol
Habie is DSP levels of stupid with video games.
I mean, sometimes it feels like an hour because for some reason on this massive map there can only be 4 little birds active at once.
"when it works, its beautiful" is i think the best way to describe the game right now. Really hoping the devs are able to pull this off
I think there’s a missing ingredient that’s yet to be understood with Alpha releases. I’ve got Ground Branch, Zero Hour, Ready or Not, Six days to Fallujah, Reforger, and Star Citizen. Reforger and Star Citizen are the only ones I’d recommend buying. The player base stuck around, the games are mind blowing (when they work) and there’s a lot of variety. I see this taking the same fate as Ground Branch or RoN. There’s just not enough here to keep people engaged long term.
@@johnmaurer3097 Reforger and SC are the games I play the most by far, and no matter what new games come out I am never drawn away. The alpha aspect to me is part of the fun. It's so exciting every time a new feature or release is announced!
I'm kinda freaked out, because I've never in my life played Zelda wind waker, I've never even watched a let's play of it. But I still almost immediately recognized the desktop background to be the starter town from Zelda wind waker. I recognized it from watching a dude play Blade and sorcery modded map as spiderman with a gun. What the fuck is life even
when did it show that?
@@Kreppi4:27
i think its because wind waker is low key the most iconic of the zelda games--i was talking with some coworkers a few weeks ago who don't play zelda games, and aside from the obvious Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom stuff they knew about just from being gamers in the recent times, they really only knew about WW. I mentioned stuff from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask to blank stares. and these are people that are basically the same age as me.
@@quinnmarchese6313 may I ask how old you are?
@@averagealoneredditor 25
And it was all done by a mobile dev, not a triple A company.Its a fun game that at least partially works. Better than any big dev recently with a billion dollar budget.
Nothing but bug fixes and dedicated patches and this game should be the replacement to the dumpster fire that is Tarkov right fucking now.
@@kevinle1083 came from dayz and this is fucking great tbh
yeah i loved dead trigger 2 man. I have hopes on these devs wich is something i normally dont like to do.
This is definitely not better than any big dev recently lol. Even smallish dev teams have done better.
@@acoustic_. Let the guy breathe the copium

Gray Zone Warfare in a nutshell: _"I don't know how to call in a heli. Oh wait, I think I foun-"_ *NEGATIVE, ALL BIRDS ARE IN THE AIR!*
Not me thinking it said “Gay zone”
Exactly the same game, but everyone has really great short shorts and exclusively uses suppressed weapons and ghillie suits (also tailored as great short shorts) when they decide to team kill. Exclusive back stabbing animations are currently a stretch goal.
I dint totally did not see gay zone did not think read gay zone i mean like why would u even think gay zone i totally also dint read that
xd I just commented it because I also read it like that
How habie got me reading. Def not gay for habie 😶🌫
Gray Zone Warfare is it was good.
I’d like Habie to know it really helps when he wishes us a good day at the end of every video. Never fails to make me smile and feel better after a bad week
I’m sure lots of people have already told ya “you can call in helicopters” but here’s the full thang there’s three factions they all have their own landing zones in the beginning and you can get deeper into their territory to increase the odds of finding them. The helicopter system itself works by opening your map and selecting the lz’s that you have and returning works by clicking the base (me and my friends all got confused by that)
Habie not understanding how to call in choppers I absolutely hilarious. I love this channel 😂
ignoring the early access bullshit (i knew what i was getting into, i can't complain) having a blast, loving it so far and is actually running pretty well and working as intended very often on my pc
aside from the fact that its 35 bucks at minimum, it looks decent.
@@quinnmarchese6313 well, 35 bucks seems reasonable to me
@@quinnmarchese6313 its 35 for the entire game, you dont need to pay more
Compared to recent AAA games, $35 is cheap.
"Finally I can play as intended!" *proceeds to skip the starting tasks and going in the deep end immediately*
you can call helicopters bro XD
Smooth brain moment…. thought the N in north was a tie fighter at the top of the screen in the beginning of the video.
Bro
this was the funnies thing i have watched having played the game myself for like 40 hours
I always appreciate your videos and dedication to this always gives me a laugh i love you
Game is a blast on the PvE mode! Also you call in the helicopters you damn smooth brain. Thanks for the content
LETS GOOOO!! HABIE UPLOAD 🔥🔥🔥
Dude, you CAN call in the transport helos lmao. You hold M to open the big map then click on the LZ you want to go to, the helo will go to the nearest LZ you're at to pick you up.
Loved it Habie!
I will always love these videos.
Love your videos Habibi! ❤
love to see how much you've grown been here since day... something
Great review! Informative and funny which is a win for me. 😊
i love habie videos, hes just a guy who makes videos. no fluff or obnoxious clout chasing. he just says his thing & shows us good clips
That thumbnail is SPOT on dude. You’re explaining the game a bit while quizzing the brain. Smart approach dude holy cow
Thank you for giving me your time, Habie!
It’s finally outttt.
I love these new atomic mirror brain segments
This game looks awesome! Love the idea of having to walk if you miss the heli! Reminds me of some Vietnam spec ops movie plot! Just riding in on the heli alone looks enough!
Dude, for the heli, you click where you want to go, then it will tell you where to meet it for pickup. Not that it matters, because if too many helicopters are in use at once, it won't send one to you until some leave the map
One of my favorite (alleged) mechanics is that if you camo for too long the game will basically give you malaria.
Habie you are the smoothest of brains, you CAN call in helicopters...
The fact that there are players out there that think the heli rides destinations are random is hilarious
Omg, Habie, my brother, you call in the helicopter through the map. You can summon one any time you want.
You can call helicopters yourself, they leave either when the person who called it gets on or if they miss the window, the window is big. If you called it in, wait for your friends to get on, then get on yourself.
Really good video I had much fun playing the game
When I saw the thumbnail my mind was immediately filled with fortunate son.
1:39 What are you talking about... You can request helicopters to drop you off at landing zones...
The ambience in your videos are majestic, pls put the songs in the descprition
Wow. I swear, I would not fucking tolerate that level of smooth brain blue on blue in a game like that.
Ah, a war crime simulator. Deranged.
Lmao I have no idea how you never once opened the map and just clicked the helo spots once. That's fucking hilarious.
Probably because the game doesn’t tell you that there even Is a map
@@maxiscool22 Yeah, but somebody who plays lots of video games, especially shooter games, should assume there is a map.
Almighty smoothbrain moment thinking you can't call in the Heli.
Damn he called it! I was shittin and gigglin
Hey boys a quick tip to not lose gear after crash, once it puts you back at main menu, if your character is still shown having all gear you need to load in immediately. If you load into a server before your character on the main screen gets wiped you’ll end up keeping all of your kit, even looted items. Had a buddy rage quit for 30 seconds in main menu until his character wiped visually on the main screen and lost his gear. Other home boy did as I advised instead of complaining and got his gear back before it wiped. I’ve only lost kit from a full on crash that closes the game. So if you DC load back in as fast as possible
I love how listening to the devs they talk about how shooting other PMCs isn't required and how you can just ignore each other but the intrinsic ape brain of man screams for delicious bloodshed
I'm guessing at higher tiers it has diminishing returns because you can just buy your gear again,but at low level its probably more rewarding cause you get weapons you can't purchase from vendors.
Best thumbnail I’ve ever seen
Wish there was a game like this that was singleplayer. As a dad with a toddler and working 55 hours per week, long form extraction shooters aren't an option for me :( Tried Incursion Red River but discovered it was a 100% asset flip, every single mechanic and model is lifted from the asset store, and it only has one tiny map made in the default Unity map creator. Some people like it but I have the feeling it's a pump and dump to take advantage of the Tarkov drama, will keep an eye on it, but don't have any faith in Early Access games....
you can play the pve mode in this with cross progression to pvp servers. there will still be other players but no friendly fire.
There is a really good single player tarkov mod
@@ESC_Aces Thought I read that friendly fire was still possible, especially with grenades? I may be thinking of a different game though
@@zekeholliday51 Played it and loved it, but can't pause and you have that countdown timer to extract. Plus I remember meeting an NPC that was fully armored, ran around a corner and one tapped me even after I heard him coming and unloaded a full AKM magazine from his upper chest, through his neck, and into his face. Tarkov's armor modelling is/was jank
@@DeadBaron I dont know about nades but the damage should be disabled. Even if you die, no one can loot your body but yourself.
Damn that finger during the rifle reload 😮
You have your own ship skin in sail
i like how u raved about finally being able to see in full color to a man of color blindness stay with me. good song. good song.
THIS IS SO FUKCING REALISTIC
My pc burst into flames trying to run this game
give the game 1-2 months and it should be playable a mid end systems
You always pick the destination you want to go when it comes to Helis. It will come to you at your nearest LZ, or else it will say LZ too close.
Ball day
Hey Habie, I just giggled. Now im off to go start shidding. o7
1:28 seems like a perfect segway to a sponsor
YOU FORGOT THE SMOOTH BRAINS AGAIN!!!
the friendly fire is an absolute shame
HABIE YOU HAVE YOUR OWN PACK IN SAIL
Love Ur content
That is an amazing thumbnail
There are 7 players in this thumbnail is menacing
I was indeed sh*ting and giggling while watching this video
bro dint know he could call in helis
Bro is just out here getting into strangers helicopters... Mf is a hitchhiker is a war zone
Just for new players! To call in an extract OR to leave the base Click on the LZ that you intend to visit on the map and at the top right hand corner there is an option to call in a helicopter! If you try and click the one closest to you it will say "LZ is too close" or something along those lines.
this is why I wait 6 months to 10 years for games to get polished now
I wish this game didn't suffer from optimization/performance and server issues. I honestly wouldn't mind being stuck at 30 FPS, but the server lag and frequent crashes make it hard to enjoy the game.
That thumbnail is terrifying for all the wrong reasons
*PLAYING DEADSIDE WHILE WAITING FOR THIS TO BE PLAYABLE*
the game design decisions in this game are absolutely insane
That emblem on the loot screen, I swear is the spartan logo from the metro games.
you would make a fantastic game journalist
Alright that’s a killer thumbnail. I had NO CHOICE but to click.
That Atomic Mirrorbrain was chefskiss.png
I loved the part when Habie said "Its Gray Zone time!" And greyzoned everywhere. 10/10 Video.
As someone currently studying abroad in Japan, I really feel the pain of trying to find time to play with friends back in America
Dearest habie147 I requesteth that you mayhap wax poetic upon the lands of Skyrim once again as I have been really getting hooked on it all over again
big oof on the choppers...
Friendly word of advice, the helo countown only starts when the person who called the helo in boards. Whoever called it in initially should be last man.
You cannot get on any helicopter dropping soldiers off. It automatically is going to fly off map to despawn. It would be certain death if you were able to somehow get on. If someone is extracting or leaving base you can get on with them, but not after a drop off. Also, just talk to the folks around you, I have not been team killed yet and everyone is super helpful and friendly.
Attempt 3 of getting the lord of atomic mirror brains to try war of wizards. Side note, I really love your vids Habie!
I haven’t played the game but it seems like having some ground vehicles that players could use could fix all the main issues with helicopters.
Another thing about the game is that is original intent is to portray what actual PMCs do
YOU FORGOT THE GALAXY BRAINS HABIE WHERE ARE THE GALAXY BRAINS HABIE
Well honestly I came from Tarkov. I bought gray zone warfare day one, played one match then left. the next day I got a Announcement that I was part of the beta testers on arena breakout infinite So I've been playing that. I guess that's a good thing I've been able to avoid most of the bugs On Grey zone. I played today for 7 hours with some friends had one hell of a time an absolute blast. the visuals is just amazing. obviously it's an early development so there's some issues like the hit registration shooting somebody in the face 15 times. but I love this game as a full time truck driver I don't have 12 hours a day to invest playing tarkov, Game I feel like is only for streamers and unemployed people. On gray zone I can jump in on this game join anyone of my friends or some random dudes at the FOB, I am never going back to Tarkov lol This game is truly amazing I hope they definitely fix these bugs soon though
i cant believe how many TKs you keep recieving.
You can call in a helicopter on demand, go to the map click on an Lz sometimes you gatta spam it so you get yours first
"Skip Coma". Lol
