Endurance Run

Endurance Run: Deadly Premonition: Part BR-14

I like the jungle vibe you've got going here, Becky, but you should really have someone spray for zombies.

Vinny and Jeff sit down and take a crack at the latest game in the Shin Megami Tensei series. Will they make it through the entire game?

Fun fact: if the combat is getting boring and you want some more depth, try crouching/holding your breath and going AROUND zombies. They can't see you, so you can catch them off guard OR just leave them. But that wouldn't be cool, would it?

 Sure it’s annoying when brad makes mistakes just like it’s annoying when we make mistakes but what’s SO MUCH MORE ANNOYING is the countless number of morons that persistently moan about how much brad sucks. If you don’t like it don’t watch it, your stupid hate comments only waste time and piss off everyone else that actually LIKES brad.

I like the videos, but don't like Brad making a million mistakes that most people wouldn't make.

 Man the arguing going on in the comment sections really makes me nostalgic for the P4ER...I remember the old days of getting a cup of tea in the afternoon and make a chicken filet sandwich and just plop down in a chair and read Aion trolling the comments, Digitals!n being first in every video and generally :everyone going crazy about when the next video would go up......
 
I wish I could go back in time and re-experience that :(
 
Don't you agree, Zach?

 it was a good episode but these guys lack common sense, they have already too many weapons, including 10mm submachine gun, yet they keep playing with the weakest pistol, - wise up guys!

did he smoke before the lumber mill, because he smoked in the beginning before he crashed.  It always seems to go to zombie land when he smokes.

Or heck, even just run past them; I'm doing a quick runthrough for achievements right now, and even on hard, unless you're in a really tight corridor, it's extremely simple to just dash right past the enemies.  Just check the map when you've got a breather moment, know which way you're heading, and then run.
 
Oh, and use the submachine gun.  Even without infinite ammo, since meeting Wesley, you always have access to the gunstore in your toolbox.  So if you're running low on bullets, you can even buy them in the middle of missions.  And it's not like you're using the money for anything else, so you might as well splurge.

WTF is with all these people ripping on the guys for not playing the game the "right" way? If you think you're so much better, then get the game yourselves and shut up. The ER is about being interesting and entertaining, and win or lose, it's fun to watch the guys. 
 
To all the haters: stop the nerd rage, and stop trying to show how big your e-peen is. Useful suggestions are one thing, but being "internet tough guy" is as pathetic now as it ever was.

It would be more interesting/entertaining if they didn't spend 2 minutes per enemy shooting their standard weapon ,while they could just use the SMG of which they have over 2000 bullets of and get us out of the game's shitty combat faster.

At the end of the day, they're playing the game the way they wanna play it. I know in these games that I often over-save my inventory. I just chafe at the attitude that somehow they owe the viewers something: whether it's the "perfect" playthrough, or nonstop laughs. I too would play it differently...so I bought it, so that I could see the game played the way I'd want to.

The clock doesn't actually move in real time, it's closer to 20 seconds per minute.

Yeah, I get that. 
 
But unlike you, they're putting this up on the site for us as entertaining video content. And seeing two guys shoot zombies one by one while moaning about textures or watching two dudes stare at a map for 20 minutes simply isn't entertaining.
 
The people who complain just want them to improve these things, so that they can get to the parts they like seeing.

Just want to highlight these in case the guys take the time to read through the comments. I'm enjoying the ERs, but I think it would be a huge improvement if they were able to get through the crap combat more quickly since they're just getting to the point where the story really gets interesting (and insane).

Holy fuck.  I am going to quit watching if they don't at least try to use some of the more effective weapons. 
 
I sincerely hope this narrow minded simple path isn't how they play the games they review.

the clock isn't in real time, but its close. It seems a minute in game is 20 seconds real time, so for every real minute 3 minutes pass.

They're only one major story event further for now. Though depending on what side-missions VJ do, that gap could get bigger and bigger.

I have literally never seen you not react extremely towards any criticism aimed at the staff. No matter how respectful it may have been. 
 
Maybe you should look at yourself once in a while and realize that the GB staff will be fine, without your White-Knighting.

Agreed. Wondering which team will get to figure out how to get the new cars first. Those cars & the suits are really the only thing worth buying in the game as everything else is given to you abundantly.

I would have no problems with Brad's incompetence if only they would constantly provide with some funny commentary but that does not seem to be the case here. The BR videos do tend to get dull in some stretches which only makes Brad's inability to play the game much more frustrating.

@mutha3:  You do know why this is called an Endurance Run right? Don't take this for granted either, you don't deserve any of this!
 
Like my mama always said; If you haven't got a nice thing to say, Fuck off. :D
 
 Also, why are people using comments as a battleground for their personal whines? PM Each other or w/e if you want to argue more.
 
Endurance run is awesome btw, was only watch VJ before but they are both as fun as each other. I just don't have the time to follow both!

Alright, all these people bitching about not using the proper gun or something stupid like that, that's not the issue. The issue is Ryan will tell Brad that he forgot something, or that he should kill that zombie before looking around, or that he should reload his gun, and Brad will just ignore it. And then both of them get punished for it. This has happened around 10 times now since the start. Brad needs to be kicked to back seat on this one, and Ryan needs the controller.

I think the SMG , of which they have thousands of bullets, would make everything much easier to watch as well.

People need to chill out. Nothing but a bunch of dickheads getting overly defensive every time somebody makes a suggestion and another set of dickheads calling brad a moron.
