This is a must watch. YoYo News passed it on to me, via Twitter.
Pure Gold. I don't think i have ever laughed at something this much on YouTube (probably because it's so dead on accurate)

Maybe its because I can relate to it more (Even though I didn't agree with their target points), I found the AW one insanely funny. Pretty close to crying. But a part of it is probably the shock value of that guys laugh wearing off.

Nvidia one was funny, didn't see the humor in the AW one because it wasn't accurate.

While the AW one was funny, a lot of it wasn't true. The game runs just fine for me on PS3, besides it freezing on the lobby sometimes. I agree on the shit they said about Highmoon though. They have no form of contact whatsoever. Their website and twitter may as well not exist, which makes SHG the only source of info for patches and shit coming to last gen. And I don't see how the size of a Zombie map somehow detracts from its gameplay. At least it's not the size of Nacht der Untoten.

And it wouldn't be funny if there wasn't at least a kernel of truth to it. In this case, a whole bushel of kernels.

And anything done to be humorous, typically exaggerates for effect. And most things that are funny are usually grounded in reality. Complaining about SBMM, a small zombie map and it being on last gen are hardly points of comedy. There's A LOT of problems they could have made fun or and it would have been good, but talking about non issues isn't really funny to me. The Nvidia one was 100% spot on,to me that's funny.

There's enough connection to reality in that video, to find some laughs. It's gone viral, at least in the clan community. Tons of people laughing at it. To each his or her own, if you don't find it funny. SH and Activision would be smart to pay attention to it. Perception can be reality after a while, and right now, AW appears to be freefalling in terms of player population. I just got some very firm data in over the weekend, that supports this. Like scary bad data.

Since you said you were going to try to dig for some numbers, I've been interested in what you'd come up with. If you don't feel like making it public, PM a brother about it.

Perception can be reality after a while Which in all honesty is ridiculous and trying to perpetuate that is dishonest to me. Like I said there's enough wrong with AW that would have made it better. The highmoon thing was good, but saying "preorders were low so we made it on last gen" is just wrong. The zombie thing is completely unrelated to anything and SBMM is a non issue and there ARE dedicated servers, and it's easy to tell when you're on one. Talk about how terribly designed the guns are, how the spawn logic is literally random at times, the random drop bullshit etc... I mean all they had to do was mention the broken snipers, EPM3, the shotguns or the AMR9 and then it'll be funny.

We've come to a sad day on this board, when the guy who is often joked at as not having a sense of humor (me), is explaining to someone else how humor works :-( Humor often works best when it builds off a kernel of truth. Exaggerates for effect. All the above does that. Go step by step. - HighMoon not taking calls....some truth. - struggling to keep KD's high...all truth there!!! - Companies using PC's in place of consoles for preview footage...based in truth - Pre-order sales stuff was a topic even in Oct, see this link. Not wrong again.... www.idigitaltimes.com/call-duty-dying-reports-show-50-fewer-pre-orders-advanced-warfare-387005- SBMM? A non-issue? Please. When guys like Drifter end up spending massive amounts of time on it, it IS an issue. - Zombie stuff? it's a fair dig at AW. Why SledgeHammer would include a side game that has already been established as Treyarch's thing. A lot of people wondered 'why'. This guy is giving the joking answer. - Gun design? Everyone jokes how they are only two guns. - Random loot drops? Fair game with how they tried to copy that stuff. - Zombie map size? That was funny. Laugh a little Alex, it couldn't hurt.

The joke is on all of you: he really is an actual Sledgehammer dev. Not so funny now, is it?

For all its intents and purposes it was very fun. I exploded after the moment of suspence: ".... So we ported it to last gen! ... When we couldn't keep 60 FPS on next gen"

"I had no idea we developed the game for PC until we released it."

When we couldn't keep 60 FPS on next gen" 35+ sec mark....oh yeah, that had me rolling on the floor lol. I can easily see some developers laughing about this (at us) somewhere!!! If I was one of the developers...I know I WOULD have been laughing too...

Everyone jokes how they are only two guns. - Random loot drops? Fair game with how they tried to copy that stuff. - Zombie map size? That was funny. Laugh a little Alex, it couldn't hurt. I laugh at funny things, like I said the Nvidia thing was hilarious. There is a huge blow back about the 970 because it is only 3.5 GB, there was a "communication error" between the PR team and engineering about the L2 cache, the 980 is significantly more expensive for a fairly insignificant gain and Nvidia is and has been the king of high end performing GPUs so people continue to buy it anyway. To put it in perspective for the Nvidia thing Struggling to keep KD's high means nothing, companies using PC means nothing, I'm not saying AW had bad preorders, I'm saying that them saying they made it last gen BECAUSE of preorders is stupid, they were going to make it for last gen before they even announced SHG was even a third dev now, Drift0r is spending massive amounts of time on it because the community is BITCHING about it, that means nothing, and how is the zombie stuff a fair dig? EVERYONE is doing zombies now. I think the real joke is people buying Call of Duty, published by Activision, developed by a nobody company that had a few people who made a pretty good SINGLE PLAYER game and some mediocre sequels, act surprised it turned out to be a shitty game. I never would have even gotten the game if it weren't for the fact I paid $45 for the full game with season pass.

AW was worth it for the campaign alone. That was by far the best campaign of any COD game yet. And it felt the longest too.
