Great stream. Spicy Dan is best Dan!

 

[Twin Tails]

he'll never doubt the silencer again

 

[Tubobutts]

They should do another Murder Island this week while they're still SPICY

 

[ThreePiMatt]

Wonder what would have happened if Dan didn't shoot at the car. Just hid in the bush.

 

[Liquid Shake]

That was a great edition of Murder Island. I don't know if it's because (almost) the whole crew gets together or what but I can't get enough of them playing PUBG.

Dan really put in an MVP performance in that last round. Bravo. Spicy is the only way to play.

 

[close to the edge]

Yeah, the AR suppressor is maybe the best weapon upgrade in the game.

They must have realised they outnumbered the other players when they decided to use the car. They'd keep driving around, the circle would contract, and they'd run Dan down when he tried to enter it. They couldn't risk Dan picking them off one by one; they must have heard his suppressor earlier.

I imagine their plan was more to flush him out, no matter what happened to the car and its driver (I think one dude was driving, with three more alive), rather than just ram him with it, but eh.

 

[Spirited]

Best upgrade is getting a 4x(or better) on any weapon closely followed by the ar suppressors.

yeah it looked like maybe it was just one guy in the car playing decoy to flush him out while the other two go on foot and pick him off. So even if he did blow the car up they'd at least know his location.

But I didn't really get a close look at the car so couldve been the whole squad in there

Yeah, that's probably true. Scopes are really important.

This works so well if you have superior numbers. I got at least 3 dinners with one of the squad running over/flushing out the remaining players.

Even if they have an S12K and fuck up the car you know where they are.

AR suppressor it GOAT upgrade when the circle gets small, when it's on the first few it's tied with the ACOG or 8X

Man, he was picking guys off left, right and centre with that suppressor.

Too bad the 10 energy drinks didn't save him from getting run over though. Still, well played colonel Ryckert.

 

[Wunder]

I'd probably say the opposite, when the circle is tiny you'll almost always hear suppressed shots. It might be slightly harder to tell where they are, but it greatly loses effectiveness in close proximity

But a ACOG or 8X completely lose their effectiveness when the circle is really small, that tiny bit of advantage you have with the suppressor puts it above anything else.

 

[Fried Food]

compressor for small circles, suppressor is heard easily.

What in the world is a compressor? You shooting compressed air at folks?

 

[xuchu]

Does anyone have a gif of when he went all MGS crazy on those guys when coming outta that bathroom?

 

[wenis]

anyone have a link to the stream?

it's a cartridge not a bullet

 

[Antiwhippy]

Does a suppressor help with accuracy or is it just purely sound?

Guys, PUBG is winning GOTY.

It's the Hitman factor all over.

It's a gold mine of content and joy for all viewers and Giant Bomb staff.

Zelda this, Yakuza that, Nier who.

PLAYERUNKNOWNBATTLEGROUNDS WILL BE GIANT BOMB'S GAME OF THE YEAR 2017.

SET IT IN STONE, HEATHENS.

There's five months to go and they'll burn out long before that.

Also, it will still be in Early Access. Such is the way of things.

I think I'm ready to accept this. I don't have a PC, so I'm going to be needlessly salty when they talk about it during GOTY.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

It has a very minor effect.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Who thought yakuza or nier would win goty anyway?

I see more salt coming from the Zelda faction. They had a slam dunk, but then...

It has a very minor effect.

Ah alright, guess every bit helps.

 

[KingKong]

if GOTY was given to the best game it would be Hollow Knight anyway so I dont see what the big deal is

It's a great game and may be in my personal top 3 but they will unfortunately forget it come GOTY.

 

[Han Seoul-Oh]

Uhh... you guys seem to be forgetting Forza Motorsport 7.

Spoiler

I've said my piece, we can remove it now.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Welp time to watch BiTE and VRodeo.

Murder Island was excellent as always.

I got the next two days off...GONNA PLAY MORE CRASH.

Best moment or sequence: The cannery in Edith Finch. Nothing I've done in games for the past few years compares in terms of story and gameplay integration.

 

[Demption]

Any way to watch the archive?

This link doesn't seem to work.

It's not my moment or sequence of the year in terms of that but definitely top 3. Insanely cool moment.

 

[WrenchNinja]

Listening to the Beastcast

"I hate when a series goes up its own ass"

I almost believed that no one was going to call him out but thankfully he called himself out and Jeff came in with the closer

I gotta play that. Nier still has the best moment for me.

I'd vote this or the end of Nier.

yeah that was real good

 

[Antiwhippy]

For edith finch though, i kinda wish the game spent more time on showing

Spoiler

Edie's own delusions on glorifying deaths. I know the whole game is kinda about that, but the game itself seem to want to glorify death in fantastical ways too that doesn't quite gel with me.

To me it didn't really quite make the transition from fantasy to farce.

 

[Death Metalist]

I've missed most of Murder Island today because I got stuff to do and I caught only the last 40 or so minutes. It basically was this.

That game has like 3 top tier moments.

You came in at the best part if you got to see Punished Dan do his thing, but it was a great stream all round.

Gonna watch the archive tomorrow. From the responses here it seems that it was real good.

Best moment goes to Horizon

Finding out what Zero Dawn was is an incredible moment that was built up super well

Dan at the start of Murder Island

Dan at the last half hour or so

Dammit I had to start driving apparently right before Dan turned into Rambo. I'll have to watch the archive

Yeah, I mentioned it in an older post when I was talking about the best moments of the year thus far.
