I want them to check if you can hurt someone by shooting a gun way above his head
wonder if Adam will say doom supports white privilege.
What can they even test from doom though, they only do two myths now but still I bet it'll be great [editline]26th January 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Ithon;47011616]wonder if Adam will say doom supports white privilege.[/QUOTE] Probably not
no FUCKING WAY. I love these guys [editline]26th January 2015[/editline] and that clip was shitty. No doom music 0/10
in my opinion since they got rid of the build team they should just go back with the old format and start testing popular/urban myths again, instead of focusing only on myths from movies/games because these are mostly works of fiction to begin with. but i guess there's only so many urban myths and they probably covered all of them lol. [editline]26th January 2015[/editline] i dunno it just seems like the show became too much of a mindless spectacle. i prefer the way it was presented on the very first seasons.
[QUOTE=usaokay;47011694]I really want them to cover the Assassin's Creed eagle dive since they previously mentioned that 3-5 years ago.[/QUOTE] I feel like that'd be way better than GameTheory's sometimes "questionable" results.
The father/mother of a friend of mine actually made the intro for the first and second season of Mythbusters. Anyway this is cool.
They said years ago that they wanted to do video game myths, but it was hard to find testable ones.
I feel like maybe they didn't look that hardly, or there weren't any good ones at the time. I know there's tons of stuff you could test from Payday 2.
[QUOTE=Destroyox;47011755]I feel like maybe they didn't look that hardly, or there weren't any good ones at the time. I know there's tons of stuff you could test from Payday 2.[/QUOTE]Well at the time this was before Payday 2 was even a thought.
[QUOTE=Ithon;47011616]wonder if Adam will say doom supports white privilege.[/QUOTE] White privilege is surviving a relentless onslaught of cyberdemons.
Do tellefragging plz
[QUOTE=Destroyox;47011755]I feel like maybe they didn't look that hardly, or there weren't any good ones at the time. I know there's tons of stuff you could test from Payday 2.[/QUOTE]Eh, DOOM's more of a classic. Plus Payday 1 would have way more they could test.
[QUOTE=Destroyox;47011755]I feel like maybe they didn't look that hardly, or there weren't any good ones at the time. I know there's tons of stuff you could test from Payday 2.[/QUOTE] Like if people can see fucking dead bodies through walls or spawn right on fucking top of you or of spec op fuckers who can karate kick you down in 1 hit can get inside the fucking walls and beat you from inside them so your team cant fucking shoot them and help you up? Or that a mosin nagant costs a quarter of a million dollars? That game is a fucking stupid peace of shit. And i love it.
"Can you really open a portal straight into Hell? Find out next week on Mythbusters!" I can't wait.

[QUOTE=Ithon;47011616]wonder if Adam will say doom supports white privilege.[/QUOTE] how is this related to doom or mythbusters
I hope they recreate the HUD for some of the first-person segments. [IMG]http://wow.tetzfiles.com/addons/DoomHUD.png[/IMG]
next week on mythbusters: can you actually run faster by going sideways and jumping
What DOOM myths are there, and how are they even gonna test that stuff out? "Can a fully armoured space soldier keep up an olympic sprint for 30 minutes straight?" or "Can we make a BFG, and will it kill everything in the room except for the wielder?", "Do bunnyhopping work in real life?"

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;47011913]next week on mythbusters: can you actually run faster by going sideways and jumping[/QUOTE] Testing bunny hopping as an actual method of movement rather than just an oddity in programmed movement systems would be entertaining, if only for how silly it'd look.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;47011796]What?[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u67x9FUoSfc[/media] it's not so bad (in a crule sense) what Adam says on camera, but the host was pushing the narrative and he was giving a possibility of white privilege. I left a lot out in my comment, where video game online play is better if you're white male as if you don't get hurtful things flung at you. I guess I'm getting enough hateful comments around me on GG I'm soaking it up while I'm trying to become more of an adult and I screwed up because it was an immature comment. I once thought I was only the kid at heart around me and now I look up and adults that have the responsibility to behave and have wisdom instead act more immature then myself seeking the same groups of youth I have.
Could we stop making every thread somehow related to GG?? pls
[QUOTE=CrucialSeBBi;47012132]Could we stop making every thread somehow related to GG?? pls[/QUOTE] For me it's more then just GG, I've looked at some vile comments on facebook to people I have as a friend, for instance the new guy in charge of microsoft said when asked in what he looked for who he would look out for in success at microsoft as a woman was to be humble. The article that was linked was him apologizing and saying it was out of context and was sorry for hurting people's feelings, this did nothing for what was in the facebook comments. The comment above wasn't supposed to segway from the upcoming episode, people could play on what I said. I'm seeing more bulling and bashing of people within my social circles it's effecting me, and it's bashing through humor. carry on then. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Off-topic.

I gave the [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRNc8J189Kk"]new episode[/URL]s a go, and I actually liked them - just as much as the older ones. I like a fresh start and the [I]new[/I] informative & [I]cool[/I] style.
