Unprofessional Fridays: 01/10/2014

We raise our rocks, chainsaws, and airplanes in salute as we bid an unprofessional farewell to Ian.

The end of the week is here! You made it! Let's sit back, relax, and close the week out in style with some video games.

Jan. 10 2014

Cast: Jeff, Brad, Vinny, Drew, Ian

Killjoy games, the creators that brought you Air Control says this on greenligh...

"@onarum, they were playing early pre-alpha versions, which were really bad. They bought it on Desura in Alphafunding where we have warned everyone that the game was not enjoyable and we have recommended not to buy it. "Alphafunding" on Desura is a kind of crowd-funding. =D

The game is an Alpha V2.0 now and we find it much better now.

It is not our bad that guys from giantbomb forgot this information.

Also, trailer is old enough. New one will be soon."

I was the Hal guy in Rust, but for a while it was my cousin playing. When I did get a chance to run around I just killed Brad. Interesting. It didn't really go well with UPF, I wonder how DayZ would fare.

Also, having a webcam as a microphone is a bad idea when annoying people are near.

@swallagoon: The live QL of DayZ from a while back was a disaster because people watched the stream and just killed the GB guys over and over again. So, not good.

Anyways, good to see some people overreacting at the Rust segment, Jesus Christ you guys...

Oh please don't have Soccer Brawl become the new windjammers where they just keep playing it at every turn. Windjammers was fun at first, but got run into the ground. Soccer Brawl from the outset is pretty boring to watch. Is the camera supposed to be that zoomed in?

Really enjoyed all the weird shit in this show. I look at a game like Starforge and I just have such a hard time imagining them ever actually making anything with it. They'd have to "fix" such fundamental aspects of the engine, it looks like. Just seems like a giant mess.

Jeff said "it's no Windjammers", so I doubt they'd replace Windjammers with that. I totally agree on the camera thing - the core gameplay seems great, but as you can't see the entire field, or even have a lot of lines as reference points, lining up shots at the goal seems unenjoyable.

Well, this was fantastically hellish. They just went for a full on Purgatory theme, essentially.

@yummylee: Windjammers has never wore out it's welcome. Hell because of all their Windjammers playing I've been playing the shit out of it and it's just a fun, enjoyable game to play and watch. It's just a great fucking game.

I found watching Brad play Rust thoroughly entertaining, I don't come to UPFs looking for a detailed breakdown of game mechanics.
