Super Professional Fridays: 04/04/2014

We started an hour late, the sound was cut off for several minutes, and the stream crashed at the end. Mission accomplished.

I liked Dave Lang on this, everyone else was just "bleh". I like Patrick and Max in other videos, and in general, but they weren't compelling to watch in this.

It's like Lang was a drunk babysitter watching two salty kid muppets.

That is...the BEST analogy for what I just watched possible. Bravo.

If there's one thing I'm already loving the shit out of, it's just how much more aggressive the Chicago swagger is - when you put Dave Lang, Max, and Patrick in one room together, it makes the San Fran crew look like a bunch of softie hippies.

This is amazing. I would pay $10 more a month for this and more from these four people.

I don't even know who the dude on the left is. I don't care.

Since he'll be on at least a few times here and there I feel it's good to give a quick explanation. The dapper man on the left, who was the bartender in the feature that introduced this set (Spelunkin' with Dave Lang's New Studio), is Ramon Franco, a software engineer/programmer at Iron Galaxy.

Besides Dave Lang and to some degree Adam Heart, Ramon is one of the more prominent faces of Iron Galaxy in these sorts of capacities.

Man how the fuck did the GB user base get so fucking angry/petulant. Guys, chill the fuck out before the Lang Zone consumes all our souls!!! Do you, duders, know that your petulance will only feed that demon that is currently lying dormant inside that big husk of a man's body??? Your petulance will be the doom of us all!!!!

I only now scan the comments for those guys that try to sell things so i can report them. Sadly I rarely read the comments apart from that.

I do that a lot, too, Michael. My friend's uncle's cousin's wife earned 10,0000,0000,00,000,0,000 YEN and just bought her second car this month just by working at home at jobgetmepaidcashmoneys.xxx!

Excellent. Great to see Patrick and the extended GB family do a Chicago show!

Starting to fall in love with Max Tempkin.

I think he had the same effect on Zoe Quinn the other day on the GDC stream

@zmilla: Who cares about reviews go back to ign mr tool. They have stated plenty of times they wont review games from people they hang out with. Reviews are pointless these days, even jeff and patrick have said as much.

Man, why did you guys get all upset over Max and his chat beef? I just want you to know, if you don't, he's one of the creators of Cards Against Humanity. Being offensive (in a funny way) is his shtick.

Also, totally wasn't offensive. So, man up SON. GET BOPPED.

Long time non-premium user here, subscribed for the Lang Zone. Not disappointed especially hearing a "Good Job by You" from Dave Lang. Also love the Sportsfriends stuff, congrats to all those guys for a great game.

Also Max some of us have shitty jobs that allow us to watch stupid streams when we get up. Dave is wrong about dogs though.

@patrickklepekMy nephew loves trains, and we imported a copy of Railfan ft. CTA Brown Line.

It's super realistic, kind of creepy, and everything a train sim fan would like. I do recommend taking a look.

While I agree that Lang can be overbearing at times, this show was pretty funny, especially when Lang beat Patrick 9-0. And you guys are acting like the Jeff & chat wasn't trolling Max, if you were there you would know it was all fun and games. Obviously this show was rough around the edges, but they know that and they want to make it better. They need to work on their dynamic a bit, where Lang (and Patrick to an extent) can get a bit out of control. Usually they're fine though, the Spelunkin' With Scoops in the CAH and Iron Galaxy offices were really great.

Also UPF this week wasn't a riot either, so chill.

The shit talking gets old really quick. Self deprecation, constant digs, and "____, son!" are not sufficient to hold a show presented to an audience (as opposed to private social interactions).

I think it's more enjoyable when people act natural and the humor derives from cleverness or from the absurdity of a situation (e.g. the usual UPF) rather than from an attempt to act and react over the top while focusing on negativity for the sake of negativity.

Shit like "You lived in SF, so I considered you less of a person" or "everyone watching this is unemployed" is not stuff I take personally, but I find them unfunny and contrived because it sounds like somebody with nothing funny to say insists on trying really hard to come up with something funny/offensive because there is an audience.

wait this replaced the real UPF. IT was a good show but I still would have like a real UPF this week.

Why don't you go look before you think you're correct. It happened hours earlier, and the California UPF went on just fine. Check yourself kid.

I don't see it in the video page. I saw this thing live but didn't see a hint of the real show. Why don't you try being less of a dick. Where am I supposed to look exactly? Cause I'm looking right on the videos page and don't see it.

They took down the UPF video because of audio issues, will come back when they're back in the office on monday, probably. Every third comment on the first two pages of this comment section is about that.

To be fair, if they aren't going to put the new one up the same day they take the old one down, they shouldn't take the old one down. If you can watch it, you're a premium member. If you're a premium member, you can download the video. If you can download the video, you can VLC it and fix the sync issues yourself. But they took it down, and are apparently incapable of clicking an upload button on a weekend, or can't upload long videos from home.
