@fink: Haha, thanks. Oops.

i got used to the 10 hr stream that UPF feels short

What the heck is going on with the videos lately?

404

Here's the chat archive.

I still say MOBA is a LAME name for a "genre". Multiplayer Online Battle Arena is so many levels of undescriptive genericness that almost any online game could be named that. I get people like how it sounds on the tongue [I remember when it was originally started to be used as well], but the last thing video games need is another genre description that basically is so generic it has no meaning.

Seriously, almost every competative multiplayer game is online, you do battle, and takes place in an arena....

Also Jeff wins cause he won the best game.

YOU CRASHED

My phone can't play the HD version. Is there a fixed med. Quality link?

I guess ill come back later.

@sankis: http://v.giantbomb.com/2016/04/09/mc_upf_040816_1800.mp4 just changed 04/08 to 04/09

Every other video for the past two weeks doesn't seem to play. What's going on?

You the real MVP

What is the deal? feels like half the time when videos get posted they are broken lately...

A lot of videos are having problems lately when they are uploaded. Can't play them in the default mode (streaming). Sometimes it works when you go in and change it to Progressive or You Tube version?

*Update 1* Ah, progressive doesn't work in this case and this is premium so it isn't uploaded to YT. This doesn't fare well.

*Update 2* Went to the last step of trying to download, and file not found.

sometimes i play these videos and i think, oh steam must be downloading something because it isn't working... Today that isn't the case.

@alavapenguin: I say this lovingly, but *mustering best Jeff impression* Whooooo caaaaaresss?

Huh, Battleborn takes Talents & Mercenaries from Heroes? I had no idea. That's pretty cool. More games should take influence from Heroes.

That said I can't see playing this over Heroes if I want to play a MOBA or Overwatch if I want to play a shooter.

Anyone else having a problem with getting the video to load?

What's the working mobile link?

I spent 3 hours doing virtual squats in Hover Junkers last night. I am sore.

The video will not play, and when you try to download it you get file not found

The only way I can watch it is, if I use the download link. Also when trying to refresh the page it takes 60 sec plus to load. I ran a speed test and I'm getting 167Mbs down speed so I know it's not my internet. Ether way just wanted to make sure that someone knows about this. Can't wait to watch this week's UPF. :)

UPDATE : download link now says "File Not Found" so ya... that's a thing

Same video problems. But as said before, go here http://v.giantbomb.com/2016/04/09/mc_upf_040816_4000.mp4

@alavapenguin: Call of Duty is a MOBA. Starcraft is a MOBA. UNO IS A MOBA

Really. Call of Duty multiplayer is a MOBA. Call it Strategic Hero-Arena Multiplayer: SHAM.

I've had to use these link work arounds for about 5 or 6 videos now, but've never posted a comment regarding it. What's going on?

Actually, it doesn't really matter. In fact, the quality of the "links" seem superior. So... whatevs!

So unprofessional the video doesnt even work! :/

Dude, thanks for letting us know!

@painkiller80: the consistent problem seems to be that there is a mismatch between the dates in the files themselves and the links pointing to them that the video player is trying to open. Not being a website operator I haven't got a clue why that would happen but they should fix it.

Oh well. I was irritated earlier in the week, but some good stuff available anyways. Hope they get it all settled. See this tomorrow or Sunday.

Ok so brad is talking about what sounds like a funny first person shooter game reminiscent of barfing in job simulator and Jeff goes to Berserk. BERSERK? Um jeff...I know you don't know anime...but man oh wow...that is like sooo 100% away from barfing done for humor....I mean the last episode of Berserk...I mean I watch tentacle hentai and I had to stop half way through because it was just too much...

If you squat in VR, you squat in real life.

There's absolutely no way for me to download this or any other video on my Galaxy S5 at the moment. I tried EasyDownloader, GB Video Buddy, Stock Android Browser but all I get is angry Jeff yelling at me. There was a short time (yesterday? 2 days ago?) where downloads worked but not anymore. Fix please?

Had to go to the ER half way through this and was looking forward to finishing it when I got home. No luck I guess

GB videos have been so unprofessional lately :(
