I feel the need to pimp this LP
A few days ago this Vioki guy (I don't think he has an account here) showed up on MCF with the following fan-made trailer for BTW:
I feel kinda bad, because at first I largely ignored the post without watching it, and only when people told me on IRC that it was really good did I go back and take a look at it...and it is really good :)
Since then, I've started watching the BTW LP series that the same guys are doing, and honestly, I don't think I've ever laughed this hard with *any* MC related videos. It's seriously entertaining shit.
I almost gave up in the first few seconds when his partner way overdoes his introduction (I think I momentarily feared it was just another brain-dead Yogscast style thing), but it's all majorly uphill from there :)
Check it out:

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
After I watched the first episode it was an instant sub from me. It's too funny to pass up.
<DaveYanakov> I know I overuse them and put them in inappropriate places but they just feel so good.

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Yeah, exactly. I can't remember the last time I laughed as hard as during that whole chicken fiasco (I think it's in episode 2 or 3). I was totally sold after that one :)destineternel wrote:After I watched the first episode it was an instant sub from me. It's too funny to pass up.
Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
I've been thoroughly enjoying this LP too. Always nice to see some fresh eyes trying out the mod, even if I do end up wanting to shout things at the screen (pumpkins need grass or dirt to grow onto! At least they should discover this when one of the end stems grows).
And the segment of getting the chicken back to base is one of the best 5 or 10 minutes of BTW I have ever watched.

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Oh yeah, the trailer guy. I completely forgot to check his LP. Thanks for the reminder.

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Is it me, or is it raining great LPs on these forums? First Icy with FC, then this. Anyways, this LP series is hilarious. I don't think I've laughed this much in quite some time. Hoping to see more soon.

For some reason every time he says "Charlie" I think he's gonna say "bit me"... Must be the accent...

It's one of the things I really like about the series: yes, they make total noob mistakes, but they're also intelligent enough to figure them out with time.
Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
I dunno, the shovel thing kind of struck me as clever. It takes a few extra swings to kill an animal, but you get 3 shovels for the same amount of cobble as an axe. I've no idea how the numbers actually balance out, but the idea was interesting to me.FlowerChild wrote:They learn :)johnt wrote:them attacking everything with shovels is making me die a little inside.

Just watched the first episode, I was dying at some of the moments like their freakout when the first wolf got in their shelter. But the best had to be pushing charlie across the ice towards the furnace as he was dying of hunger, just grunting the whole time. Hilarious :D
Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Just watched the first episode and maaan i laughed!
Nice to see a brand new series with someone who never played btw, i subscribed.

The tension in this LP... Watching them learn and discover. I love it.
Thanks for the recommendation FC, made my day off worth it. ;D

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Actually, I saw that and had a moment of realization. I never thought of trying to kill something with a shovel but evidently it's better than beating them up with your bare fists. So in that horrible moment of, "Oh my God my last axe just broke and this zombie still has a firm grip on my small intestine," a shovel ought to work in a pinch :) I'll remember that.johnt wrote:them attacking everything with shovels is making me die a little inside.
Speaking of which, axe murderers get a lot of publicity but where's the love for the shovel murderers? It's a pretty vicious weapon if you think about it.

Why do all the Zombies look like Steve?
Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
Hearing "I'm not gonna lie, did you not hear the howling of the banshee out there? WE'RE DOOMED" was enough to bring me out of lurking. That was truly epic. Definitely made a subscriber outta me.

The way he skillfully navigated that spawner was impressive. I learned quite a bit from that careful approach. I tend to be gung-ho about spawners, diving in as fast as I can to stop the spawning, but I'll probably adopt this method going forward

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
I just got another good laugh out of their saw breakage incident. I think I sometimes forget how many little "gotchas" are in the mod like that to ambush new players ;)
Starting off my day by watching these guys play has become a habit.

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
this is AMAZING. i dont really enjoy watching LP because i would much rather just play myself, but being a "experianced player" i dont really have to think about things so i enjoyed watching some new players for once. its a bonus that they happen to be funnier then shit

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
If I'm watching the LP, do I also need to watch the stream? Or can I just keep up with the LP?

Re: I feel the need to pimp this LP
The stream content is not in the LP, at least not all of it. It's not as exciting though. But I watched an hour (not live) last night and was still entertained.Gilberreke wrote:If I'm watching the LP, do I also need to watch the stream? Or can I just keep up with the LP?
