EA can't get anything right.
I think it's the "episodes show up mon-fri" recording format that they hate.
Which is kinda weird, isn't it? Are they opposed to daily content of a particular game?
I guess it's just hard/complicated to plan out episodes for every weekday. But it seems that the site has been doing several "non-Endurance Run, Endurance Runs" lately.

Haven't had any issues today on the 360.
To be fair there were XBL issues on top of that right know, should be resolved.
edit: VV OH BOY!
Very profound. Sums up so many people.
If they commit to 5 episodes of at least thirty minutes each they have to commit to record for at least three hours (including overhead) every week. Calling it LOLS or BB means they can stream out 2 hours, maybe even more if they have time, maybe twice in one week - but if they are busy e.g. Volgarr or not really feeling it e.g. Dmc they can skip weeks, or months even, without people demanding their daily fix.
Technology has come so far, they are emulating it on a waste paper basket ffs. We really are living in the future.

yup, meanwhile over at Gamespot, they got that spiffy new table with the hinge that folds up
I'm pretty sure that for the previous Endurance Runs they just recorded a weeks worth all at once, then uploaded them over a week.
Seemed to me their problem with it was more just that it was a lot of work, while these other formats let them just do them whenever they feel like it.

Nah, unless there was a holiday, at most they would record 2/3 at a time.
Doing several weeks at once would mean their casual conversation (during dungeons etc) would be stale and outdated. One of the best things about P4ER was the mini-Bombcasts you'd get.
I imagine the whole thing is a pain in the arse logistically. Breaking Brad, LOLS, RPCG (rip) all make much more sense.
You do realize that the P4 ER filmed multiple days of content in one real day, correct? They would sit down and record multiple days at a time.
Only by a day or two, and a lot of times that was the case anyway.
Did you read my post?
Dude said they would record a week at a time. I said it was only a couple days unless there was a holiday (or someone was out of town).
Well jeff hates coop mode and brad does not like deathmatch mode. Game seems fun from what I can gather in the OT.
There were definitely times early on they would record a week in a row.

The game is actually pretty fun, I picked it up on a whim because I like PVZ (not 2 though) and was pleasantly surprised at how good the game is. Pretty cool to see Popcap leave their bread and butter of casual games and make something different and it turned out good.
I really don't like the randomize progression, even without micro transactions in place. Payday 2 has it too and it's real bummer when you reach max level (I don't particularly like exp system either). There are significant mods that are hidden behind the game's RNG which promotes farming. :/
Yeah, when the episodes were 15min. That when out the window pretty quick when they realised it would take a couple years at that pace.

Gameplay looks okay, but I really like the presentation in Garden Warfare. The graphics looks nice, and i love the sound effects. I don't see myself ever buying it, but kudos to them for those parts of it.

Also i think this game will make its way to Playstation Platforms as it was only a timed exclusive so that could be another reason to use their own shitty servers.
Well that's good to hear. I'll have to give it a try once it reaches other platforms.
"Huh, that's a mighty fine bag of cash there Microsoft. And it's all for me? Why thanks!"

So are Brad and Jeff often at each other's throats like this?
Arguments are fine and even interesting, but that seemed to get just a little bit over the line for something so trivial. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

They just physically fought each other during the Live PvZ quick look. It was horrifying.

Someone needs to turn heel if they are soon to debut fresh faces to the roster.

everyone has a coworker like bradley where every conversation you ever have is always one perceived slight away from taking a left turn into a long and boring argument
Brad views games that are "left trigger right trigger" as the death of gaming.
He wants everyone to play Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~ and Katawa Shoujo.

If that is what you consider being at each other threats I would hate for you to see other arguments I've had.
KS is rad. I should probably try this other one.

What do you mean physically fought? What happened?

Well obviously they are on a podcast so they can't get THAT heated. But for a gaming podcast, that was a pretty heated exchange.
