Twitch troll or real?

We need CBOAT

Is WarrenMax007 secretly a Sony shill trying to diffuse the situation by using social commentary and website links? Discuss.

Spoiler

I don't think you're a shill btw. I just found it funny.

"I can't try another HDMI cable, I already did that" Well shit, son, you've tried every other damn thing 800 times in a row. Humor them.

 

[SystemsGo]

He's NOT trying to fix in. He's trying to maximize the views, drag this out and get his channel on the map.

Proof?

 

[Roland1979]

He's losing views. If he switched to playing the Ps4 a few hours back? Yeah maybe. He's not. He's been doing the same thing for hours and losing views.

More then he would ever get from playing, this has gone viral. If he goes back to playing everyone will watch Yosp instead (which more and more do). Plus you don't really believe he's fixing it do you? And he's not that stupid. That would be on the level of a retard.

 

[Mr Moose]

There is a lot of fanboys yeah. The Playstation fanboys are yelling that the guy is a troll working for Microsoft, while the Microsoft fanboys and Nintendo fanboys are yelling that the Ps4 is awful.
It's like that everywhere on any topic. Fanboys come and try to justify there choice by defending it too hard.

If you have been watching the stream at all, you would be able to tell he's a complete idiot.

 

[Wishmaster92]

lol wtf is up with the chat.

 

[Parapraxis]

"I can't try another HDMI cable, I already did that" Well shit, son, you've tried every other damn thing 800 times in a row. Humor them.

But he hasn't, only tried a different input...SAME CABLE.

[SeventhSon]

I just saw the recap post and the changed thread title.

It's funny, but OP has my sympathy.

 

[Roland1979]

Proof?

Did you watch all of this?! It's full of proof. Go watch it from the beginning.

Is this the same CBoaT or whatever sources that said PSN and XBL were both in bad shape for launch but they weren't?

 

[jond76]

these gifs are killing me

Fuckin' Vic Mackey...

 

[Grinchy]

The thought of him walking into a Taco Bell all frenzied and holding a PS4 to get help just cracks me up.

 

[Gorillaz]

Yeah Im done with this guy as well. Outtie

/deceased

 

[S0N0S]

It doesn't help that there is conflicting, official information. Is it one beep or two beeps? I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE!

Wait for two beeps, but only if there is an orange light.

Wait for two beeps for safe mode, but no mention of an orange light.

 

[malfcn]

I'm out. The trolling has gotten old.

 

[Dr.Acula]

YOSP is awesomeee lol

dont give this guy any more attentuion go see yosp!

http://www.twitch.tv/gameape2001

YOSP looks so content, like he's being blown or something.

 

[neodeano]

But he hasn't, only tried a different input...SAME CABLE.

I said around 10-11 hours ago to try another cable *slaps head*

 

[Whogie]

Cools. New person.

[MetalGuardian]

This .gif is much funnier if you view it in the context of being the opening five seconds of a porno

 

[LordCanti]

480x720 is 720p now guys. Guys.

Just let the guy get a free replacement PS4 for his free PS4 and call it a day then, this is beyond ridiculous.

 

[LycanXIII]

He wasn't listening at all...

 

[Whogie]

Again with this TV res thing :/

 

[Parapraxis]

I said around 10-11 hours ago to try another cable *slaps head*

And he has a %100 working HDMI cable.
He used a different one with his 360.

 

[Intheflorsh]

Again he ignores a request to look up the model number.

 

[Steel]

Again with this TV res thing :/

It's the fix he deserves, but not the one he needs.

 

[neodeano]

And as someone else suggested, try another hdmi cable

Oh. 12 hours ago.

 

[enzo_gt]

Yeah I'm out. It was fun guys.

 

[Mr Moose]

Yeah, like he won't fuck that one up too lol I wouldn't trust him with a spoon.

 

[neodeano]

Not the same as trying a different cable though. Seeing more and more HDMI oddities relating to cabling recently.

 

[John Rabbit]

every single time i've come back to this shitshow, he's accidentally turned the system on.

every.
single.
time.

"it's so sensitive!"

 

[Fried Food]

Wait this is still going on?

 

[Goodacre0081]

every time this guy touches his PS4 he turns it on accidentally.

 

[SloaneRisette]

I can't take it anymore.

I'm done.

 

[Parapraxis]

Not the same as trying a different cable though. Seeing more and more HDMI oddities relating to cabling recently.

No, what I'm saying is he should at least try the cable that was proven to work on his 360.

 

[Steel]

Wait this is still going on?

What, you expected him to get it right? He keeps going back to the 720p thing....

 

[S0N0S]

It has been fun GAF, but I'm out. I tried.

I have no doub it's an HDMI issue. His PS4 simply can no longer establish a connection to his TV. The only solution at this point is a new machine.

 

[Angry Fork]

I was laughing so hard when people kept posting links to the gaf post that could help him and instead of reading it he would keep responding to trolls instead.

 

[MWS Natural]

luke_mathews:
I've been hearing a lot of inside "rumors" that Microsoft has been planning to sabotage the PS4 launch, and I *think* this is it. I've been watching the stream for hours and I heard/saw a lot of sketchy *** from those guys. They are working with Microsoft, there's no doubt about it. Anyone doubting my credibility can PM me.

 

[LordCanti]

I had a TV with this menu. It's either going to be in advanced options or picture options on the Cog icon.

Edit: His TV doesn't have resolution controls? Mine did and I think it was the 46" version of the same model... mmm...

 

[Grinchy]

Can't do it anymore. God speed to the rest of you.

 

[BanGy.nz]

Chill Skype dude:"Here is a list of exactly how you fixed it last time"
Our Hero: "So what did I do"
Chill Skype dude: "..."

 

[K.Jack]

He can't even figure out how to cycle through menus on the TV.

What in the fuck.

You linked knowledge bases for two completely different situations.

 

[Bikola]

I've been watching this guy for a while now and it seems he can't get the system into safe mode. I think if he follows the PS3 steps of getting into safe mode, it should get him into safe mode.

Step 1: when the system is completely powered off, press and hold the power button until the 3rd beep. There are 3 beeps, 1st one is when you press the power button and then 2 more beeps follow.

Step 2: the system will turn off automatically. that's fine.

Step 3: once the system has turned off, hold the power button until you hear 2 beeps, continue holding until you hear double beeps. and it should boot up in safe mode.

im out, this fucking troll is now lame.
