Id put in swastikas in their games back in the day. Doom had one in a map that they had to patch out because people complained.

Is it a requirement for a Gamergate person to have a persecution complex and start shit about GG in unrelated threads?

[Firefox42]

He's doing it wrong. I don't see him ripping and tearing anything.

[A_Pigeon]

Hope you don't mind but my entire life revolves around video games and there Is a controversy right now called gamer gate. Could we please discuss it for a minute its the only topic I know how to talk about

FTFY

Glad im not the only one getting sick of this, GG was literally just a small stint of twitter drama, even the *super serious* part where one side got their mates to write mean articles on their blogs has been over for months. i don't see why it's constantly brought up around here like some important historical event.

[Fangz]

This episode isn't completely dedicated to Doom though:

[quote]According to the Bethesda Blog, the whole episode will cover video game myths and won't be dedicated solely to Doom.[/quote]

Wonder what other games they will tackle.

[notgeogzm]

i hope they put the physics in bad rats to the test

1. Can an arrow to the knee really end an adventuring career?
2. Why can some adventurers be permanently crippled by single arrows while others can walk around with dozens sticking out of their heads and torso?
3. Do health packs and first aid kits contain healing potions?
4. Can vodka cure radiation poisoning?
5. If you carry a minigun with the actual power source and fuckton of ammo it needs to run, will your inventory still have room for a rocket launcher and a fuckton of missiles?
6. Since enemies become stronger the stronger you are, is it you that inspires them to try harder? Can you inspire them to be better instead?
7. Knee high walls: is it possible to somehow jump over them?
8. Is jumping something that can actually be done?
9. Can you jump straight up then to the side?
10. How do you double jump?
11. Can you really gib people with a shotgun?
12. If enemies just stand around minding their own business until you aggro them, are they really even enemies, or just some guys defending themselves from a crazy armed guy that can't jump?
13. Does every animal on the planet really wants to kill you?
14. Can you really make a better bandoleer from the pelts of nearly extinct tigers than out of sheep skin?
15. How long would it really take you to craft a full suit of plate armor?
16. Who keeps lighting the torches and winding up the trap in ancient dungeons?

I can do this all day.

Edit:

Some more:
17. What would be a good reason to place barrels containing explosive materials in places were armed conflict is expected to break out? Why are they always red?
18. What's in the barrels that don't explode?
19. What is the point of having crates everywhere if each contains a single item?
20. How come there are all these crates, yet no pallets? (credit: OMM)
21. Can you really cure sword and gunshot wounds by eating vegetables?
22. Can you survive taking a rocket to the face?
22. If someone hits you a lot with a sword until you're within an inch of your life, but you manage to eat a vegetable somehow, do all your limbs instantly grow back?

Games really make no sense what so ever now that I think about it. To many completely crazy things we take for granted.

[KorJax]

[QUOTE=MenteR;47011660]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]

Remember the old "send us your myths!" they did?

Well I know they probably got a lot of them but at some point you have to realize they probably pretty much covered every single fit-for-TV myth out there. It makes sense that the show went into the spectacle factor later on. It was a popular part of the show, and they probably straight up ran out of ideas.

[E Quantifier]

I wouldn't mind them going over the physics of the gravity gun. Specifically the amount of force required to pull and or punt objects of varying sizes.

That or cover seesaw puzzles.

Rocket Jumping plz

wow you should write for ctrl alt del

[SteakStyes]

Right off the bat, [sp]a person can't carry all that stuff and medikits do not work in a split second[/sp]. Even though its spoiler tagged, its common sense rather than ruining the episode. I said this in a thread in ITN, but I find it kind of sad that I've seen zero advertising for this season of Mythbusters.

EDIT: Wonder if they will cover if taking a piss can heal you, ala Duke Nukem 3d.

Imo this is the best season so far. Their new format is really something great.

[Impact1986]

They finally gonna bust the myth that violent video games turn peaceful people into violent monsters

[Mr. Jelly]

Up next on Mythbusters, Adam and Jamie are tackling the age old question, if you're huge, does that [I]really[/I] mean you have huge guts?

[Major_Vice]

Uhh they have a flashlight [I]attached[/I] to one of the guns. Doom 3: BUSTED.

[JennyC6]

[QUOTE=Talvy;47012316]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.[/QUOTE]

Indeed. I just wish Discovery would realize that the ad spam is as much of a negative influence as the nonsense was. They're [i]desperate[/i] to coax people into watching live, which is easy to see when you look at how hard they're pushing stuff like 'Chat with Adam and Jamie live while it's on air'. But all they'd have to do to get their live audience back is yank that fourth commercial break they shove in near the end.

The ad spam is why I watch on TiVO, and I imagine it's why most people just tivo it and watch it like an hour after it airs. The ads are obnoxious, and right now, are the biggest glaring problem with the show.

[ZuXer]

Does being huge automatically mean you have huge guts?
