Fluffdaddy posted:I don't think he is. When I delivered food to hotels it was almost exclusively to people about to have sex, just got done or in the middle of it. Haven't made it that far in the bombcast but my brother in law was a delivery driver and I can confirm that he has confirmed this.

As a manager at a small business I've been kind of curious about how CBSi views Patrick and Alex working out of the area and presumably earning full salary. For a site that is incredibly personality driven having two people not able to appear on camera and up until recently released a much smaller portion of the content, it probably appears to put them in a tough spot with management. It doesn't really make sense to me. You've got two people you're probably paying decent money that possibly to management don't appear to contribute as much as they could if they were on location and may factor into why CBSi was a bit reluctant to increase staff size for a while there. Honestly if you count every person and the couple engineering guys GB appears to have a decent sized team for their site. Also if a manager isn't familiar with the site and Vinny and Drew are labeled "Video Production" as their title explaining to a manager why you need another video guy probably doesn't make the slightest sense either. But I'm completely just looking at it from a hands off management perspective and hopefully nothing like this is actually occurring and the management team actually pays attention and cares about the site enough to follow what they're doing.

Hakkesshu posted:Those guys can't be watching the stream, right? Would it even be possible to find Drew that quickly with a fully geared group without knowing what server he's on? I've watched a lot of Twitch of DayZ and stream sniping is pretty horrendous at times. Particularly if they showed what server they joined.

You play DayZ for 20 hours for those two experiences that are absolutely amazing but yeah it's a bit thin right now. Rocket does have some very ambitious plans for it and since it's actually sold a poo poo ton he has the drive and Bohemia breathing down his neck to make it amazing.

Yep and they'll quickly realize they don't have a tenth the personality the giant bomb guys do on camera.

Corin Tucker's Stalker posted:That's pretty fair. They tend to approach games differently than most podcasts, really picking apart the individual pieces and considering whether those things actually fit together into a whole. Sometimes that means they come off as dismissive because they'll focus on some aspect that could have been better in an otherwise superficially fun game. It also doesn't help that they think Far Cry 2 is the most perfect video game of all time given to the earth by God himself.

I used my code on the Flight Club shirt which I still think is a great shirt. And it's innocent enough to wear out of the house without feeling awkward.

Equilibrium posted:Listening to the Bombcast is making Thief sound like a.. good game? All of their complaints are basically exactly what I would want from a Thief game. I might have to gamefly this next. This this this. All the negative reviews tend to list lots of things that were very core to the Thief games. Crazy rear end story, spiritual themes, weak rear end main character. I'm actually excited to play it sometime.

Holy poo poo the stamps.com commercial after the break in the middle of the bomb cast is one of the better ones they've done. Also I think I could listen to Dave Lang stories all day every day.

Anyone else still having issues playing videos on the site? It's mainly through the GB app on iPad that someone put together, on HD it buffers constantly.

Monster w21 Faces posted:2 copies of E.T., 1 copy of Centipede. Tens of thousands of dollars. Brought to you by the XBOX ONE. I always thought there was supposed to be hundreds if not thousands of copies of the games buried out there. Maybe it was a plant by Microsoft.
