I just checked this app. Pretty good. Definitely does lower the lag (reduced mine from 160-180 down to 135-155) but it's not free at all. There's a ONE DAY free trial lol. Not sure it's worth the 10$ a month. It definitely works though
@@usmansikandar4406it’s not, just change your dns. Or upgrade your internet provider
Can gearup be used when have virgin media because is simaler to a coaxle connection can it work if connect to virgin media wann connection
@@dolphinii3673 Nothingos free and for the majority of peopl it does nothing .
Bro traveled, dedication
The fact that all countries havent followed suit on the illegalization of gambling in games is wild, it would benefit literally everybody but the 1%
That's the thing, a lot of governments only recently started to acknowledge videogames in general, despite them being probably the third most popular pillar of entertainment industry.
Here in Russia they still treat it as "children-oriented" despite the majority of gamers being over 20.
That's why there are so few game-related laws, they don't consider it a serious business.
@@ferdithetank7535 they are bigger than the movie industry and the music combined at least in 2021
@@The-Anti exactly, and since the corona pandemic gaming became a lot more common due to isolation and other factors. However, most lawmakers and administrative figures are not gamers and have no clue about it being such a big industry.
All that will happen is that they'll do stuff like they did with Belgium, ramp up the price tags on EVERYTHING and then lock the MAIN item behind buying all the other ones
@@DarthRane113 If they ramp it up much more though people will refuse to buy shit, its already bad enough
Bro really woke up and said, "I'm going to travel to Belgium so I can get a skin for cheaper".....respect
(200! HOLY CRAP THKS)
And then didn't even get the caustic skin 😢
@@Cplayz08exactly
Take notes, EA. Players prefer to buy flights to other countries than put up with your gacha tactics.
its the eurostar. ( Train )
Bro took a whole Eurostar to get to belgium. Idk what’s worse, the fact you over paid for eurostar or had to come to london for it.
Tell me about it dude
@@Grrtprolly the london part icl
The hilarious part is loot boxes were truly the lesser evil. The new skin shop/pass systems are all way more predatory.
fr, overwatch is a shining example
They’re both predatory and bad.
Apex everybody will buy a $350 bundle
If I have to choose between two evils I would rather not choose at all.
Relax Geralt, the worse is yet to come.@@mr.p215
I live in Belgium, been playing since day 1, every battle pass, own 14 heirlooms, able to vpn outside belgium to buy pcks or skins I usually cant, thousands of crafting metals which give me free or 40$ heirlooms in collection events if I save up, it's really great here
I admit that here in Belgium, we have it good (for apex). It's just annoying to have to use a VPN just to buy a skin in the shop because the game includes packs in it.
@@FTU_Song true, but i dont rly mind the extra 5 seconds of work for amazing values compared to other countries
hoe heb je dat gedaan? bij mij lukt het niet
@@Crefip gewoon in België wonen en een VPN naar USA doe ik meestal, werkt altijd super vlot
@@Shifooooo werkt al paar seizoenen niet meer
Im suprised that EA doesnt just make skins in Belgium like $50 a piece since they cant have loot boxes.
Dont give them ideas, it's already bad enough here
this is why we follow Garret
I like these longer Grrt videos
Grrt can we stop putting bots in Hong Kong servers? Plz the pcs have been blowing up
You act like he's the one who put them there lol
It’s a joke
Gearup can improve some latency issues appropriately, but it can't do anything about very poor broadband
Lol, "La Bourse" and it's McDonald in the end frames.
Hope you enjoyed your stay in Belgium
What's funny is I got the Caustic skin right from the first pack since I still got 500+ left without expecting much
i love the fact that so many people use the belgium glitch to get crafting materials when me and my friends used it to get the normal battle pass because we thought it was just better to get the garuanteed legendary skin each season instead of 800 crafting materials wich isnt even enough to buy one legendary
What a legend for going all the way to Belgium just for a Caustic skin
dude had me laughing at " respawn bringing a new gambling event for shooting your gun" XD just imagine that .
Really hope this video blows up. Perfectly explained how predatory EA has become
Wow I know nothing about the Belgium store were different than others. Dammit, I missed that one R99 moogle skin, if only I could pair that with my Wattson's moogle skin 😢
the worst thing about the shadow society event for me was that i didnt check twitter that day so i didnt know apex destroyed the game (again) and my items would be taken straight from my account, guess i didnt want the car skin anyway
I actually lucked out and got the Caustic skin in my first pack. I wanted the death standing emote too, but figured I'd just stick with the one pack and be done with it.
Bruh, that‘s probably the best video i‘ve ever seen 😂
Fun fact, it's not impossible for console players, if you have a vpn on your phone then use a mobile hotspot you can basically use a vpn on console.
They don't sell bundles like the loba edition bundle without the packs because the packs are used as a padding mechanism to bypass laws in countries like Australia regarding showing a discounted price on items that cannot be bought seperately. basically the apex packs are added in just so the actual value matches the advertised value.
😂😂 bro said ima fly halfway across the world to save money on a skin 😂😂
Such a cool intro animation for caustic! But shop is sad for gambling 😢
I hope every country in the world makes the same law f all the companies like EA promoting gambling to children and scamming people
This. I ate the$10-30 cost for buying skins outright and still willing to. But making me gamble for shit I want is predatory af. I refuse to buy into that.
i mean , i'm from belgium , and if anything they just made shit a lot more expensive for us now to get anything in games
I work in the casino business, and loot boxes is exactly like gambling.
i got the cobalt katar from my first pack opening and i’m actually mad because i don’t even support this system 😭
What i wouldn't give to replace seasonal stat trackers, holosprays, and almost any blue rarity skins in the passes with mats or anything else.
7:44 It's not true, because as for me, I'm on console (Xbox) and I live in Belgium. Craft materials are fine, but when there are really cool skins in the shop with packs inside, I have to use a VPN by modifying the DNS of my Xbox with the VPN I have to be able to buy the skin! So, it is possible to use a VPN for consoles, at least for Xbox. For PlayStation, I don't know about that. :)
How do you modify it to be the vpns dns?
@@Vopana Hi, I'm sorry, I had written a nice long explanation of how to do it step-by-step, but apparently UA-cam won't let me post the message at all! So to help you as best as I can, I recommend the following video from CyberghostVPN's UA-cam channel: How to Setup Your VPN for Xbox One/Series X (Easy Step-by-Step Guide).
And if you still need help, feel free to ask me for any of my social media and I will try to help.
to any wondering why Gachas arent banned is because unlike lootboxes theres a pity system to deny your bill from getting to high at a certain point. Some may you lose something like a 50/50 before being fully garunteed to get what you want but you are garunteed something of similar rarity and the next time you reach that pity it will br exactly what you want
The dedication is unmatched
I legit felt lucky bought one of the packs for this event and got the skin first try
Yeah so in the end it's an even more expensive skin in Belgium 😓as a Belgian I really hate the fact that even though it's cool we can buy selected skins if we want to buy out a whole event we have to pay a lot more money
@grrt u can buy packs but u gotta use the vpn the other way around, i personally use a free vpn, called bear vpn or smthn, i set it to NY and just buy my packs
Live in belgium, sometimes in rare cases the law is a win, but it mostly is not. Gotta use a vpn in alot of games to be able to get cosmetics which is a pain to do’
The fact anyone buys skins priced as much as any other AAA game is reduculous. yall could probably spend just as much time enjoying the other games without the bad servers, lag, ping, game breaking abilities and hackers ruining the game just for some pixles. the money doesnt get used for anything useful just more expensive events. i havent felt the same since the final fantasy event. i was a huge fan but i cant with it anymore.
"Belgium's a beautiful country"
Then shows off Burger King and McDonald's 😆
It would be one thing if all of the items were the same rarity, but when half or of the items are epic tier banners, stickers, and sprays that no one will ever use, it makes it significantly harder to justify making the choice to buy an event.
i bought one apex pack the first one for the new event for 100mcoins and got the loba skin, which is the one i was gambling for anyway...... however i wont be so lucky all the time and rlly hope they wont continue with the trend to not make the skins purchasable
Got him on my 3rd try, the skin perfectly matches my masters frame, its siiiick
I will never spend any money in an event that is like the Shadow society event
I won't spend any money on any event in any game lol
There needs to be an worldwide law to ban companies from adding gambling mechanics through things like packs and also force them to make *EVERY* item they put in games to be buyable for an resonable amount of money.
(maximum 18$ for cosmetics and maximum 100$ for everything else like 30 day boosters)
Its funny how cs2 has that xray thing for cases where they banned that gambling thing yet in the netherlands we cant open cases at all. No keys. No xray. Nothing.
Yet we can still gamble away with apex packs and the gta online casino…
Wait so what makes this different then previous events? Like wasn't the last collection also random pulls?
I somehow managed to get lucky and get the Caustic skin on my first apex pack and I was happy and then I realized I don't have Caustic unlocked
While me open one event apex pack and got the coustic skin with the select animation
How did you like belgium tho, I'm curious because i live there
Hey, I'm Belgian, so just to clarify, when you were using the bug to get the Belgian pass, I was using my account in France to get the events pack during the events.
And now that we can't do that anymore, my best buddy sends me the packs as a gift.
9:00 NOT THE ZOMBIE VS PLANT MUSIC
i got that caustic skin on my first pack from the event for 100 coins, and i didnt even have caustic unlocked lol
The pvz music gave me nostalgia😭😭😭
IM SO JELOUS OF BELIGIAN PEOPLE RIGHT NOW WTFFFFF!!! Nice video tho garretI love u!!! Ur insane for going to Belgium!!!❤️❤️❤️🐐🐐🐐🔥🔥🔥
as a free player id almost rather have loot boxes than be in Belgium. also DID YOU BOOT UP THE PLANTS VS ZOMBIES SOUNDTRACK AT 8:34 BUMPIN
I miss when everything in games was unlockable through at the very least grinding, and a big micro transaction was like 10 bucks😓
I actually got the revenant one because the game was so buggy I bought it when the servers were down and they didn’t let me keep it
I got the Caustic skin in 1st pack.
I was dying cuz I got the caustic skin on my first pack opening thought nothing of it and then saw the 3% chance of getting it!
So I live in Belgium and to be honest it's convenient but sometimes I just want to buy a pack but I can't because of this law
I am speaking to my local mps about getting EA banned from doing loot boxes in Canada
Are we gonna ignore the kill feed 3 minutes in where its (ur dad asked me to top him!) Lmao
Dont PLAY!!! the previous CEO of EA had that exact idea of gambling to reload your weapon
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if that was true for these greedy mega corporations
the pvz music in the back ground
I legitimately got 2 legendary skins a nemesis and a emote but only got the caustic spray form the event it was bullshit
@Grrt I'm starving in the basement where are my rationings you promised this morning :(
Could you say I HATE MY STUPID CHUNGUS LIFE in the next video pls
Maybe...
i love the booster but i already used it before and you only get 1 day free which is bs, there should be a free plan where you just have to watch an ad before connecting or something
I really wanted the loba skin but I got the caustic skin on my first pack
We still get packs an the pass and from leveling up, we just can’t buy them in the shop 🇧🇪
It might be cheaper to take the eurostar to Belgium and buy a specific skin than just gambling your money in apex
WE MOVIN TO BELGIUM WITH THIS ONE🔥🔥🔥
i got the caustic skin on my 100 coin pack along with another legendary lmao
Grrt you GOT to collab with Bobz on Apex, the british duo at work😭
I always felt they had a rivalry for some (Unknown) reason.
Beglium is actually ahead of the whole world about this
I bro fr using Plants vs Zombies main theme song 💀
Man that Bosnian SpongeBob is funny cause I’m bosnian 😂😂
When you go outside to still not touch grass. Truly a gamer moment😂
this gambling system is hilarious, do they really think people are going to gamble for nothing? i would buy loba skin if it was available to buy, not gamble for it
8:15 " cher passagers votre attention"
i Purchased only 1 Pack & got Caustic Skin😂. and the funny part is. i wanted loba or vantage one 😐
THE APEX VIDEO OF ALL TIME
My enjoyment of and willingness to pay for cosmetics dramatically dropped when they fixed the Belgium patch. I loved collecting more materials for free skins, and often found myself buying skins with actual money/coins because I felt like it was my fault if I didn't save up the free materials. Hope that makes sense...
Basically, I'd spend the free materials somewhat frivolously on anything cool... So when something came up that I HAD to have, but no longer have enough materials... I blamed my own lack of self control (instead of EA's greed) and bought it with real money.
Since they patched it, I haven't bought anything... Not to make a point, it's just how it doesn't seem worth it in my mind any longer.
now im in spain, i guess i will go to belgium few times just for gaming "tourism"🤣🤣
I'm in Spain too. I'll join you 😂😂
I live in Belgium and I still always got the free apex packs (even from the battlepass). You just can't buy them.
(even before it got patched)
How they get Heirloom shards ?
Got it on my first try which is nice, dont even play caustic
you should buy 500 apex packs and then open them in Belgium
Man, I got so lucky and got him on my first 100 AC pack
I miss ow1 lootboxes.
How is gacha going over there?
3:33 BOSNIA MENTIONED?!?!? 🔥🦅🦅🦅🦅🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
it’s actually insane to me how little apex’s outlandishly evil monetization gets talked about. i used to kinda enjoy new events cuz i could win like 1-3 free packs and id usually get a skin wether it was from the event or not. now they dont do that and theyve gotten twice as greedy. i barely even play anymore cuz theres barely a way to earn anything you actually want and even tho ive spent a large amount of money in the past, i just haven’t enjoyed the game enough to give it that same treatment. why does apex get a pass for this shitty type of stuff? cuz it’s free to play? it’s insane to me
How tf am i just finding out about the Belgium glitch
Idk man, belgium is a nice country, might move for skins.
I’m not even kidding I bought the 100 apex coins offer apex and then got the caustic skin 😭
Mad at my friends for forcing me to llay this game years ago and now i hate that im addicted to it and they do stuff like this and there was times i thought about just dropping the money for these expensive ass cometics
I love that skin, but why ash tho what she do to get manhandled like that 😢
Got the caustic skin for 100c from free pass reward
If respawn makes us watch ads to play I will quit you can’t be like we make over 1 bil but you have to watch 5 ads every game
