Welp, I guess the Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 Quick Look will have to wait.

In semi-related news, my lovely Murder Island tee arrived last night.

Maybe I missed something somewhere, but what was up with those references(?) they kept making in the beginning?

@crunchyflies: One of them mentioned the band Tool so they started making a bunch of references to Tool songs.

This was not a strong outing, especially for Ben, but it was a fun stream nonetheless.

I continue to hold out hope that a squad of Jeff Brad Vinny Alex aka the Core 4 is the best chance at getting a chicken dinner. Respect for Ben for almost taking out a 3 dude squad. Abby's waldo shirt game is legit.

I die a little inside every time they pronounce "UMP", just as Brad revolts at people saying "PUBG" as "pub-gah".

@jeff I had that same exact issue and don't pay for comcast's unlimited stuff. NN stuff affects me everyday but I figure I am a game developer working from home so I am on the rare side. I had this same issue with PUBG a month or so ago. It's because they use coherent UI (great UI system) that indeed displays HTML. It's really shitty to see this effect someone else. This is comcast DIRECTLY taking away from your business because of their shitty laws and how bad of a place we are in.

This game is strange because it's ostensibly very difficult and 'hardcore' but it's still feasible to do well without needing to be good at the actual shooting. My gf has done better than me and come in second place only killing one guy, and she's never played few shooters and no competitive multiplayer ones.

The tool jokes were incredible but I didn't like how Alex was showing a little bit too much intolerance towards the band.

Jeff learned a hard lesson this morning. You can run from murder, but you can't run from Comcast script injection.

Like ARMA which it came from, positioning, stealth, understanding line of sight, patience, etc are all real skills and aspects to the game as well. It is interesting and speaks to what is to be gained when you don't just make your shooter nonstop fast paced action.

It's funny to me to think about say Jeff complaining nonstop about any FPS that didn't have a jetpack and wall running a bit ago and now liking this game so much. This is always why I hated that line of reasoning, because this is what you gain.

It's cool people are getting into this game anyhow.

its not really an fps since its third person with first person being optional. Jeff also stated he doesn't like first person only in this game.

Any shooter. He has complained nonstop about any that feels the slightest bit slow and this game is slow, but look at all you gain. That's my point. It always annoyed me about the discussions as he would have them and with this game he is seeing all to be gained by the opposite.
