Unprofessional Fridays: 06/26/2015

Jeff gets a hold of a swear stick, Brad survives by punching and pooping, and Rorie scores some points with Richard Knockers. Just like every Friday.

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.

Jun. 26 2015

Cast: Jeff, Brad, Matt

Posted by: Jason

Episode Notes:

***HOT HOT AUDIO WARNING***

There's some clipping in the first 30 seconds or so of the video. It's gross, nasty stuff and you shouldn't wear headphones during it.

The main thing that annoys me about Rorie is he says things a lot of times as if he 100% knows what he is talking about and then gets corrected on them constantly. There was one video where nearly every time he was talking he would give a fact or anecdote about something and then someone would correct him straight afterwards.

In this video he is just really out of it attention wise, I know e3 has just happened but brad and jeff seem to be still on the ball.

He is more of an engineer similar to Alexis or Dave, less so an editor. I thought he was more on-the-ball than Jeff/Brad considering he was the ONLY person to say the freakin' name of that first-person survival game they were playing! Ark: Survival Evolved. GB can be pretty bad at giving context sometimes. At least maybe say the name of the game when you introduce it, I dunno.

With Austin not here, I already miss there being someone to have actual conversations about hip-hop with Jeff.

I think these audio sync issues might be on the video player. When it was getting bad I just changed the quality and the audio and video lined back up. The sync would start getting worse as the video went on but changing the quality setting kept bringing it back.

Yeah, I can't get into games like ARK. Something about losing any progress you've made is just unapealing to me. Guess I'm just getting old, too, @Brad.

ARK is much more fun/manageable if you've got friends to play with. Having a tribe to help you build up, and thus ensure that you've got backup materials or tools in the event you die and can't find your body in time, is a lot better than going it alone.

I'm sure that's probably got a lot to do with it. Unfortunately, the group of guys I play with don't really spend time with these survival games either.

running around with the dinos actually seems fun so i'd prefer a single player version with AI enemies; at least you won't have to be so fucking vigilant. which reminds me The Forest seemed the most attractive to me of those games.

We need to gather our forces and force Blood on the Sand to the top of the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility request list.

I've been getting back into Rust lately. I kinda find the multiplayer aspect of these games kinda fun and interesting. You are basically preparing yourself to kill other people. I mean, I understand people losing their stuff and not liking it, but the game is sorta designed to have a short ramp. Also some of the mods that modded servers have make the game so much easier to get into. Like giving you free shit, letting you teleport, etc.

EVERYTHING is more expensive when it's done in a person's "Yay" area. ;)

Apparently. But it also depends on where you go for it, which hair stylist and the like. Paying more than 20 dollars for a haircut is a robbery, IMO.

This is not the first time I've seen them play a game covered fantastically by AVGN, Super Noah's Ark 3d, and no one mentioned it. I figured at least one person in the GB crew would love the AVGN.

I think survival games are a brilliant concept but it's the mad rush that's going on right now which is doing it a disservice.

Dayz Mod was great back in the day, but I'm tired of all these crap survival games. I would have no problem if they were good, but they all feel the same, someone cobbled it together in 5 mins in Unity and they don't play great. At least Dayz had great solid mechanics from ARMA 2 and amazing feeling shooting.
