Humorous Medical Anecdotes
00:00:08
Speaker
cry about that you dirty old bitch.
00:00:29
Speaker
Yeah. Welcome back. It's been a couple of weeks. We're not going to pretend like our guy in here. We are just going to go straight into... I love how I put your opening music. Is this it? Yeah. Hold on. Can I get a large Americano? No whip.
00:00:55
Speaker
All right, fuck that up. Don't fuck it up. Never fuck it up. To one man, Kofu's SWAT team. The eternal four star, possibly five star. The count of Montefisto. The mayor of Lower DeSalle. The clutch commando, Harrison. Harrison. How you doing? How are you doing this evening? Doing good. How about you?
00:01:23
Speaker
Um, I'm doing okay. I was just, uh, I told the people earlier this week, you had a mild medical emergency.
Nostalgia and Gaming Memories
00:01:30
Speaker
I did not tell them your pubes came in, but still a secret between the two of us. Thank you. Thanks. Yeah. There were several people that were asking now you were doing, I told them you were doing fine. Yeah. Just a little flu coming in. Yeah. It's nothing worse than a, than a early spring flu. Yes.
00:01:50
Speaker
Yeah, what's that time of the year we'll knock on this door real quick You'll be getting in anything you want to go over Not really just a lot of hunt and Not not too much extra this week
00:02:16
Speaker
Pretty much the same. I did pick up Robocop, not that long ago. I fucked around with Robocop a little bit. Nice. How was it?
Intense Gaming Encounters
00:02:26
Speaker
It plays a lot like Time Crisis, but that's cool. I love Time Crisis. As a matter of fact, one trip to Ocean City, I saved up all my money so that I could beat Time Crisis, and I did, and it was amazing. It's like a $40 venture, isn't it? It was way more than that because I was bad.
00:02:46
Speaker
Yeah, it's it's literally time because you move so slow. But if you're a Robocop fan, you don't expect them to be doing like baseball slides. But you mean it doesn't play like Call of Duty?
00:03:00
Speaker
No, but I have fun with it. I don't have any problem with it. I got it on sale. If you're a Robocop fan, I don't know. I think in this age of YouTube, it's buyer error if you get a game that you eventually decide you don't like.
00:03:22
Speaker
because you could just watch a stream and be like, alright, I kinda wanna try this, or you could watch a stream and be like, this looks kinda like trash, I don't think I'm gonna, I don't think I'm gonna give this my money. Absolutely. Yeah. Um, but yeah, just RoboCop and Hunt for me, so, uh, if you have nothing more to go into, you can just pop on into door number two here. How are you not dead? I have no idea!
Creative Gaming Escapes
00:03:51
Speaker
Three minutes in we're already at the gameplay segment. This is a new record for us It's been a slow week considering I've been sick and You've been playing Robocop I don't know about slow. I think we've had some bangers we had We had the one the other night that got you so enraged you rage quit even though we won Yes
00:04:16
Speaker
I was very upset. I don't even know why I was upset, but I mean, either. Me neither. Because it occurred to us very early into the fight that we were not outmatched, but these guys were waiting right outside the saloon. It was it's no, it was the one was it. It wasn't the barbed wire fight where there was barbed wire everywhere.
00:04:45
Speaker
uh we can do that one yeah that's not the one i was going to talk about but that which one were you talking about because i don't remember that one i was so upset about it i forgot it yeah we had one in lower de salle in the saloon where we came in we marched in and we just eviscerated this guy
00:05:03
Speaker
Solo in there he killed the bounty we came in stole the banish Iced him out the problem came when the bounty carrier showed up They immediately they lit up the whole place not with concertina arrows But they just threw like they threw three concertina bombs up through the top windows They threw in three concertina bombs through the downstairs like I don't know why they were just sitting there with six concertina bombs stacked
00:05:32
Speaker
but we basically all got killed by concertina bombs.
Gaming Frustrations and Humor
00:05:36
Speaker
Yeah. Even they did when they started coming in. It was obnoxious. It was not good for anybody. Nobody was happy that they did that. I was talking about the one where, I think it might have been Moses Poultry, where we left. We got in a fight with another team. We had the bounty.
00:05:55
Speaker
we were doing okay but they kept picking each other up so it was never we can never really get a good advantage and eventually you both died i'm solo and i'm popping shots with a federally i take a big rotate another team shows up gets in a big fight with the team that we're fighting i managed to pick the two of you up oh the cheaters they're not cheaters and
00:06:21
Speaker
the bomb arrows. Yeah. And we go running to, uh, we go running to the nearest boat because I have, I have mariner and remedy. So we need to find a trait to get us all our bars back, get our bars back. And then as we're going back, we're like, I think we're at like the prison and there's just bomb arrows coming from two compounds away. They're literally just arcing arrows in our direction, seeing what hits.
00:06:51
Speaker
They were hitting far more than I feel they should've else. I think they just got lucky. I mean, you can look for where the lightning striking and just shoot over in that direction. I think they were hitting more than they should considering how far off we were. We are two compounds off and they're almost hitting every fucking time. It was like an air strike constantly. They were just dropping a j-damn on us from the atmosphere.
00:07:16
Speaker
But eventually we came out on top. We ended up dividing, rotating. It was a duo. They both had nothing but Constantina and bomb arrows between the two of them. And yeah, we just divided and eventually we got the W. And yeah, that's all that you wrote about that one. Yeah, I was very upset that one. It felt very bullshit. A lot of bullshit.
00:07:45
Speaker
Yeah, that was the one that right afterwards you were like, throw your bullets in the bucket. We're done. I'm done. I'm out. And I was like, well, that's the last game. We're good. We're, we're going to call
Event Reflections and Technical Challenges
00:07:57
Speaker
it a day. And you're like, good. Because even if we weren't going to call it a day, it's a day I'm done. Yeah. I was not. Yeah. You, you were not having a good time. No, no, I was not. Your french fries were supposed to be pizza. You're not having a good time.
00:08:14
Speaker
Nope. I ordered onion rings and they gave me chicken tenders and french fries. I don't think that's as bad as you're making that out to be. I wanted onion rings. It's not bad, but it's like, I really wanted onion rings. I'm not upset. I have chicken tenders and french fries, but I really wanted onion rings. Like did I lose out on the deal? No. Did I get what I wanted? Absolutely not. Yeah, I guess.
00:08:43
Speaker
uh before you get before he get all uh all retard nuts over there we're gonna right into segment three because you're getting out of control all right segment this week uh what is this tide of what desolation is that is that the name that we've given this one i just keep calling it the final tide
00:09:13
Speaker
Yes, it is the final tide of desolation. Yep. It's the final count. I should have got the final countdown on here for the soundbite. Yeah. We're in the tail end, a few days left, maybe less than a week. How do you feel the event's gone now that it's done? We haven't given periodic updates like we have all the other ones. So we pretty much have our update at the beginning of the event. And now here at the end of the event, how do you feel the event's gone? So I think the events are going
00:09:42
Speaker
Granted, sometimes it takes us to the end. I feel they're going a little long. You mean duration wise? Yes. Yeah. Yeah, I guess. I feel they're going a little long. A week or two. Not a lot, but a little long. Yeah. And I don't know what it was with this event, but whenever we got
00:10:12
Speaker
The tide, it lagged me so bad. Almost I'm playing more. Yeah, the Ash Bloom. Yeah, the Ash Bloom was too much.
00:10:23
Speaker
Yeah, that brings me to my second point.
Analyzing the Ash Bloom Event
00:10:28
Speaker
Do you think the ash bloom will stick around? The rainstorm has stuck around as a weather environment. We've continued the rainstorm periodically. We'll get the surprise of an inferno. Do you think the ash bloom will be something that will return? Probably. I hope not. It lagged me out too hard for me to be happy about it.
00:10:52
Speaker
But it'll probably be just like all the other events where it'll come every weekend. The thing that makes me think it might not is because this is the first event that's got a weird paranormal twist to it.
00:11:14
Speaker
the ash the like I feel like the events lore are kind of leading towards some kind of not restructuring but it feels like it's building towards this I guess the the cry engine upgrade maybe
00:11:32
Speaker
since that's kind of where they're leading, and now every event revolves around the world kind of eating itself, whether it's us getting flooded out, us getting flooded out in the tide of whatever, or the tide of desolation, the ash bloom literally swallowing the world whole.
00:11:54
Speaker
or the inferno is burning the world around you it feels like this is almost building towards the the next gen launch of the game almost not hunt two but like hunt showdown you know point two hmm hunt showdown 2.0 kind of um uh i'm with you i i wouldn't
00:12:20
Speaker
Wouldn't hate the ash bloom as it continues I think your problems stem mainly from how your internet's hooked to your console cuz you're a Wi-Fi guy it very well could I just know that it It lagged me out a lot and we also running into full maps That brings me to the other part I wonder if other people feel the same way because the maps were more full on the regular
00:12:48
Speaker
the regular standard, um, you know, non wildcard maps.
Event Strategies and Unexpected Thrills
00:12:53
Speaker
It could be, it could also be that the noises that the bloom was making, um, confusing everybody and the sound already sometimes has issues and that was just exacerbating it. Yeah. Um, good word. Good word.
00:13:14
Speaker
Thank you. Good word. Well, yeah, because we had we had a game over the weekend where we spawned damn near like we almost spawned as a four man team between us and Rachael being right next to us. We killed Rachael and in the bloom as he banished, people started to descend on us. A giant fight broke out one compound over
00:13:43
Speaker
Well, that's everybody that's coming to get us just meeting in the middle. So we third partied the shit out of them. Yes. We got the W in that fight, but the problem was all the blobs from the Ashbloom kept making the sounds of hunters walking, which in turn made us more paranoid because now we're like, is there more people coming?
00:14:06
Speaker
Because on top of us killing Rockjaw where we killed Rockjaw and the fight happening where it fought, like Rockjaw happened A, the next compound B is where the fight took place, the next compound C is where scrap beak got banished. So it's like there's literally people every five feet. And we're running out of bars because we're going down and picking each other up.
00:14:32
Speaker
and the blobs weren't helping the dam. I mean, I'm not hating on it. I like the idea. But I think the execution, I don't know, I don't even want to say the execution failed because I really don't mind the Ash Bloom. I just don't, I don't know if I want it to be. If you told me tomorrow,
00:14:52
Speaker
I'll stop stammering and I'll wrap up my thought in this one concise way. If you told me, I guess the event ends in like a week or two. This time next month, we're going to have a wild card weekend with one environment, with one extra environment as the wild card. If that wild card a month from now, if they tell me it's the Inferno, I'm canceling my plans and I'm playing all day Sunday. If you tell me it's the Ash Bloom,
00:15:20
Speaker
we're gonna play our normal two or three games around three o'clock and we're just gonna play on the standard map no wild card absolutely the i like inferno a lot more but it's and that that fight was crazy because it seemed like everyone was coming
00:15:39
Speaker
To kill us and everybody got third partied and then as they were running and fighting each other They found the boss fight. They found the boss Yeah, and then it was just more chaos. It was yeah Yeah, it was it was literally like well We're gonna kill those guys and then you you heard a twig snap and it's two dudes in the bush like uh, not before we kill you and then you heard a bolt a bolt of a
00:16:05
Speaker
of a labell clack from like a hundred yards away and it's like that not before we get you it was literally it sounded like it sounded like d-day yeah it was it was ridiculous yeah it was it was a crazy everyone came thinking they were going to be the one to third party yeah everybody was the other team yeah yep yep yep um i guess with the event the event ending
00:16:33
Speaker
We're going to tip our hats, everybody that played in the event. GG's all around. I hope you guys got all the
Exploring New DLC and Preferences
00:16:39
Speaker
loot you could. We're still pushing our third guy through. He may or may not finish. I don't know if we have the juice to push him all the way through, but we've got him quite a few little tasty treats. Yeah, we got him pretty close for everything he would want skin-wise. Well, even then, I think he wants the weapons. Past a certain point, it's all just skin.
00:17:03
Speaker
Yeah, and I think he has that. Yeah, and the skins, you know, while they're awesome, it's really, you know, it is what it is. But yeah, last thing is we have the Northern Justice DLC comes out today. Are you gonna, are you gonna pick up Dudley Doo Right?
00:17:25
Speaker
uh... now are deadly do you write all you but uh... you're not going to have a look i'll probably pick up at some point but i'm not as excited as open and it's not like i'm it's not a pound in the table like the cartoon uh... wolf looking at a naked lady or anything but uh... it's a sick ass i i'd like to shade of red in his jacket i'd like how much crap he has dangling off of him
00:17:52
Speaker
The gloves kill me because they're the full-on Mountie gloves that go all the way to his fucking elbow and As far as a scope a Scott field goes I like a brawler and as far as a centennial goes I'll take a full-size over a mini So it's new skins for both of those and ammo box. I've routinely taken ammo box sometimes not lately because we've been burning everybody but Usually if I need a tool, I'm gonna take an ammo box
00:18:22
Speaker
Yeah, ammo boxes. We don't use as much, but. I feel like I feel like after the event, we're going to be back to ammo box. So that's usually the way it is. The event brings a different style of play. And then once the event's done, we're right back into a hunt standard where it's just seek and destroy. Normally, it really depends if the solos are still out and about, we're going to be burning.
00:18:53
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. We're still working it out. Working it out. I'm not mad at the solos anymore. We've learned to coexist. You guys are getting us as good as you're getting. Yes. And I'm fine with it. We need more people playing the game if that's how they want to play.
Solo Play and Community Acknowledgements
00:19:10

00:19:23
Speaker
That's what you get. Anything to add on how you were playing. Oh, yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. You knew you knew the price of the bullshittery you were bringing to the table. Yeah. As long as you're willing to pay the price, I don't have a problem with it. Yeah. I'm willing to collect that check. Yeah.
00:19:45
Speaker
A little throw a little love to our legendary hunters. We got Nitro Nate, the Ponytail Pomp, Malcolm Anderson, Manor Von Veldt, OG Gamer, Rat329, Mitchell Gertz, you guys are still in the fold.
