So I went back to Peace Walker to finish the 'secret chapter/post game story missions'.

What a drag. Having to complete side ops to get unlock each mission is annoying enough. But to, spoilers for the missions,

Spoiler

repeat the same mission 6 times and then lock the 7th mission because you have to complete Metal Gear Zeke?

. I don't think I can be bothered with the last mission now. Ridiculous.

Yeah, I just youtubed the last chapter. The game just becomes a grind at that point.

 

[Myggen]

I hope the server issues don't put him off, there's an amazing game behind all this.

It's been really fucking bad for a while now. I gave up trying to get into a match earlier today.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

It's unfortunate. Just from single player alone, Rocket League is the closest to knocking Bloodborne from the top of my GOTY.

I know, it's very frustrating.

I got a 2hr online session in before it was released in North America and the servers broke. It was exhilarating.

Can't wait for it to settle down.

 

[Twin Tails]

Looks like Jeff is on the Rocket League wagon. Great game.

Hah, I described it as if my ps4 was launching into a Lunar orbit. I see that my ps4 isn't the only one sweating this game.

There's a weird fix for the fan issue. If you tilt the camera to just look at the car in the menus it fixes things for now until they patch it.

 

[Incandenza]

At least once you get into a game it's smooth sailing. Managed to get matchmaking to work twice and both times I got a good six rounds in.

Makes sense. Normally when a fan goes crazy like that in a menu is because they didn't cap the FPS so you get SUPER high FPS numbers when you only have to render a menu.

There was a game on PC that had the same issue a couple of years ago, can't remember which one tho.

 

[def sim]

FTL had that problem. Coil whine in the menus like nothing else.

The final boss is pretty good.

 

[Phatmac]

Yes they finally did a j stars quick look. Hoping to see it on the upcoming list everyday was making me anxious

Daily Trackmania

shenmue 3 thread is scary.

 

[BUNTING1243]

Live show almost every day this week! Crazy!

 

[Tucah]

Sweet mother of God.

4 days of livestreams this week, with a double up on Friday, perfect.

 

[daydream]

Sweet mother of God.

YES

nice gif lol

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Wait, this means we'll have to be in the trackmania server at that time. 6pm no problem.

 

[Jothel]

In hour many hours is the track mania video,l? I assume is not 11pm local time?

 

[Glitchesarecool]

20 hours.

I'm noticing a lot of similarities between Metroid and Shenmue fans, and that's not a good thing.

 

[Jothel]

20 hours.

Thanks. I'll be on the train then, bollocks. One day I will play TM2 with Jeff.

 

[Archaix]

So what we're all saying is that the Trackmania server is going to explode some time around 5PM central tomorrow?

 

[MassiveNights]

Yeah apologies, I am in UK so its showing my local time on the schedule.

I am 8 hours ahead of San Francisco.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

There's a 100 person limit so I wonder if Jeff will manage to get in or if we'll clog it all up before he gets on. Or maybe he'll be playing longer earlier to warm up and get in.

 

[Jothel]

No worries, living in the UK is probably the best for watching live stuff - if you don't mind staying up late that is. I kinda miss it.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

That's great! I'm so glad Trackmania has come back into Jeff's life. Greatest love story ever told, I say.

 

[Dizzy-4U]

He's an admin on the server.

 

[Twin Tails]

Sweet mother of God.

Can I run Trackmania on a Surface? I'll try to test that out.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

He's an admin on the server.

I actually didn't know that lol.

 

[EdReedFan20]

It's been really fucking bad for a while now. I gave up trying to get into a match earlier today.

I guess I'm lucky. I got into one fairly quickly and played 6 straight matches. Ran great for me.

 

[Megasoum]

I'm on the 70th (and last) "Best of Giantbomb" video and rewatching the Xavier Woods segment. They really need to bring him back, he needs to be a new regular on the site during events.

Hopefully something will happen at PAX. That's soon-ish, right?

Yeah... He even was with Pope and Trite on the GB Show so there's like 100% chance he'll have a part in the PAX Rumble.

Smooth Criminal isnt even a top 5 mj song

 

[therealminime]

Sweet mother of God.

Yay more Trackmania 2! Jeff playing on UPF has totally gotten me back in too, the game is still so awesome.

 

[Megasoum]

Fun fact... Up until a couple of years ago I thought that Smooth Criminal was an Alien Ant Farm song.

Ah of course it comes from the only piece of GB content I skipped in the last year lol.

Sweet mother of God.

He should make sure to bring that car horn.
