Unprofessional Fridays: 09/11/2015

Damn, this went up fast. I know what I'm gonna do for the next couple of hours.

Some really fun banter in this episode, everybody seemed to be in such a great mood.

Did this go up before the Playdate did?

Damn is this episode as Metal Gear heavy as the podcast was? Had to skip most of that.

There's a good Metal Gear chunk for the last segment but it's entirely FOB stuff, absolutely no story.

I suggest not watching when Brad is getting his gear ready for the mission. It shows some things that are end game.

sweet! more metal gear. can't wait to watch this.

@deathfromace: Like what? The bandana? Are people that sensitive over innocuous things like that? Everything prominent are things you can see in the Research tabs from the very beginning.

If brief shots of equipment is now spoilers then I give up.

50% Completion ? Hrrmm, too rich for my blood. Might sit this one out till I get to 50%.

I know Jeff is the boss and all, but I think it's still rather shitty how he took up almost 80 minutes of the show playing Mario Maker, of which he did an hour-long quick look that appeared on the site no more than a day earlier, which in turn caused Dan to forfeit the thing he wanted to do on this episode.

Not the first time, either.

I think the equipment is as it's very late game.

There was a playdate today?

Do they ever say wtf the countdown is they talk about at the beginning?

I thought that was a peodbear on Jeff's shirt, at first.

Jeff finished MGS5 in like 45 hours? I'm 40 in and just now finished episode 14. :)

Phanto has come to

Brad doesn't know about peek

@efesell: Equipment is spoilers. Gameplay is spoilers. You shouldn't even be discussing this game until at least a year after release, you assholes.

WHY ARE YOU ACKNOWLEDGING THIS GAME EXISTS?

@yesac2004: I'm pretty sure there was I saw Until dawn on the front page and it said it was live I just couldn't watch then

I am at 28 hours in and just did Mission 22. Don't know why playing super slow is anything to brag about.

The banter in this episode was top notch, really loved the "Not what I grew up with, so fuck it" part and the whole genre discussion.

I am 94 hours into MGSV. I finished the main campaign at hour 77

Rorie, why do you have to be so trolly? 1:37:41

I pretty much always wear NVGs - it makes spotting guys and resources so much easier (even during the day with the upgraded NVGs)

Edit: Item spoiler for MGS There is a infinite ammo bandana you can research

Fantastic episode of UPF! Loved seeing Jeff smiling and laughing. Everyone seemed to be in a good mood.

56:20 That was gold.

@spacecouncil: There was, but I was in the same boat.

It might go up randomly tonight or tomorrow, or may take until sometime next week (it's happen both ways).

Unfortunately, I can find no method to access it early (as no ones posted the link to the raw/stream archive) and..in fact have no idea if that's even allowed in the rules! (thus why I posted a forum topic about it)

Does anyone know which was the UPF featuring that Wairo/Pictionary thing that they mentioned?

time to watch metal gear while i play metal gear and fuck it eat metal gear i guess

I don't give a crap about MGS spoilers, or spoilers for anything, really. What bothers me is that Brad is always ready and excited to talk/show spoilers of a game when he actually knows about them, but when he doesn't want something spoiled for him he gets pissy.

This quick look, this TNT, and this UPF.

Wasn't actually a UPF, but: http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/thursday-night-throwdown-06-27-13/2300-7650/

EDIT: I'm almost positive that they did actually revisit it for a UPF or two, but they don't seem to be tagged in those videos, so I can't actually help you there.

What is the countdown they were talking about?

Edit: nevermind figured it out, weird shit

Jeff is in high spirits! Is this the mario maker effect?

I love that they talked about Achewood!

Does anyone have a link to that wario game UPF ep they were talking about? The one Rorie said he probably never had laughed so hard in a UPF before. I missed that one.

See below.

Good stream...of what they are playing currently! Hopefully next UPF features some random games instead.

I don't know why I can just keep watching people play Mario forever.

Everything I'm referring to you can't see by looking at the start of the game. I just told people to look away if they didn't want to see it. I'm not going to talk about and name what is a late game item by saying them here after I told people to look away >.>

I know it seems some hate it, but i'd like to see them add multiplayer to mario maker levels. I think the gb crew not so secretly has a blast playing those games.

I was bragging? Just amused at the difference.

There's only really one spoiler in Brad's equipment (the Parasite Suit) and it's not at all "very late game", it's around the middle.

@mrnood1e: The spoilers in the Metal Gear segment are so minor that it's not even worth mentioning. Much worse than minor spoilers is people getting mad about minor spoilers like it actually matters.

Bayonetta 2 and Metal Gear Rising bar none THE best Action games ever made. Ninja Gaiden II not far behind.

@flameboy84: No, it isn't. And the MGSV segment is only at the very end. The "spoiler" is something that's in GZ and a piece of equipment you probably don't care about.

Anyways, great UPF. Mario Maker is just a delight to watch others play.

Probably the first ending, not the real one. At least based on where he was on Tuesday when they recorded the podcast.

Love the little exchange at 1:04:08.
