idiots

farhad2k84532d ago

One of the guys that were with the Yogscast at Minecon described the whole thing, it was retweeted by the Yogscast on Twitter.

I knew the Yogscast were harmless, I'm not even a subscriber, but I'm about to go subscribe to show my support.

I'm not on anyones side, I respect both Notch and Yogscast equally, I just hope they can get past this swiftly. There are alot of kids that watch the Yogscast videos, and to have them stop playing Minecraft would simply break their hearts.

zeal0us4532d ago

I don't care how famous you are, you don't go around treating others like crap and think you're going to get away with it.

grailly4532d ago

I don't even get why they're famous in the first place, they are just annoying and their videos aren't professional at all, they don't know what they are talking about.

Sephiroth5034532d ago

Really? They showcase off a lot of mods, explaining what they do and how they work and then they also provide a narrative driven series. IMO they show a lot of knowledge about Minecraft and what makes it great.

grailly4532d ago

this was my first exposure to them, maybe that's why I don't like them. http://www.youtube.com/watc...
watch from 4.30.

they do show a lot of minecraft mods, but there rarely is a video where they know exactly what they are doing. the footage is quickly put together and the commentary says: " you can do this and that, but I didn't find out how to do it"

Jinkazama14214532d ago

can somebody explain what the fighting is about between notch and yogcast?

radphil4532d ago (Edited 4532d ago )

Basically yogcast acted egotistical and immature during minecon, and Notch said something about it.

Supposedly they also dropped the f-bomb to a kid that wanted their autograph, and overall Notch wants to distance himself away from them.

PhunnyJesta4532d ago

yogscast are gonna reveal what happened when lewis, simon and hannah get back. Id treat any details you hear from other people as rumors, just wait for them to explain what happened. But I really do think some shit went down, but really this is the yogscast we are talking about lol did they really expect them to act mature???

radphil4532d ago (Edited 4532d ago )

There kinda is a level of maturity people are expected to have when you're contending with a huge age range, especially when it deals with others.

How you act on the internet does not instantly translate to how you should act around thousands of others in a convention.

PhunnyJesta4532d ago

a) they are brits
b) they are brits

TB sums it quite nicely

Kran4532d ago

Yeah.

Maybe the Yogscast just got a little too carried away?

360ICE4532d ago (Edited 4532d ago )

Notch - definitely socially awkward (don't try denying this - he's a mensa member for crying out loud)
Yogcast - possibly socially awkward? I don't know. It's probably mostly stupidity mixed with misunderstandings. It's not ice anyway, more like vanilla ice. Eeew.

It's in Notch's tweets. Basically Yogscast went around MineCon insulting people and acting like spoiled jerks.

Notch wasn't even this angry when they got sued by Bethesda...

Sephiroth5034532d ago

It is "claimed" they did certain things. Right now we have unconfirmed reports and Notch's brief Tweets to work with. Let's wait for Yogcast response and see where it goes.

OcularVision4532d ago

@Sephiroth502 What motif could Notch have to lie?

Sephiroth5034532d ago

I agree it's hard to see a motive to lie, but right now we don't know any details - was Notch present when the things he says happened happened, or did someone say it happened to him. Maybe he's overreacting, i.e. there's a lot going around (again unconfirmed) that he's upset with language used and perhaps instructions weren't given on appropriate language or maybe he's 100% right.

But as of this moment we have only one side of the story, a story which he has chosen to break to everyone, and hence it is better for all involved ( I love Minecraft and Yogscast so don't really want to choose) to wait for the other side to the story to see what the issue is.

Jacks_Medulla4532d ago

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT REALLY HAPPENED AND NO REAL DATA TO GO ON BUT SOMEHOW I FEEL STRONGLY OPINIONATED ON THIS SUBJECT!

SephirothX214532d ago

Mine what? Just kidding but seriously, its a casual game so not much to care about.

Drano4532d ago

Think what you will but this thing is still more newsworthy than any hardcore game texture faceoff.

.... from the 2000s (mostly).

shinoff218337d ago

I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.

Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1

FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG

Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.

Name Last Name37d ago

I mean some sequels are objectively better and you don’t need to play the whole series.

Inverno37d ago

But most of these games have a story to follow, sure you can catch up with a YouTube vid but where's the fun in that?

LucasRuinedChildhood37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

A list like this isn't telling you not to play the previous games if you want to. It's just giving you legendary games to play.

But tbh, you don't always have to force yourself to play every entry in a franchise to get to the better ones.

- The vast majority of Witcher 3 players never played the first 2 and had a great time. The first 2 games aren't in the same league.
- The GTA games are self-contained with the odd fun reference. You can easily jump into any of them.
- The Shadow Of The Colossus remake looks and controls better than the original (plus it has a 60fps option while the remaster is just 30fps). New players will enjoy it more.
- Portal 2 is a lot better than Portal 1 and takes the concept much further gameplay-wise. Storywise, Portal 1 is fairly light too. Not that you shouldn't play it but realistically ... you'd love Portal 2 whether you play it or not (at lot of Portal 2 players have never played 1).

Bioshock 1 is the only one I agree with you on simply because it's one the best games of all time and arguably better than Infinite. No other setting like Rapture.

Looking at the list, I'd recommend playing Uncharted 1 before 2 but no doubt, 2 is the legendary one you have to play.

Inverno37d ago

I get it, but that's just my opinion on his opinion. I just think that before you play a sequel you should still play what came before it. Maybe it's just me but i find it fascinating playing through the first game in a series and seeing how it has evolved through its sequels. Like I said I don't disagree with the list, other than SoTC which I strongly believe the remaster of the original should be played above the remake.

AuraAbjure37d ago

Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.

Minecraft Bedrock Introduces Official Add-Ons To Marketplace

Minecraft Bedrock is introducing add-ons to the marketplace. The add-ons can now be added to many existing and new worlds.

Jin_Sakai58d ago (Edited 58d ago )

Nice! Next up, shaders on consoles.

“A new update is improving how mods work for Minecraft Bedrock. Mojang has introduced add-ons to the marketplace.”

“These add-ons can now easily be added to new and existing worlds instead of being tied to a single world.
There are plenty of free and paid add-ons that will let you customize just about anything in your world.”

OtterX56d ago

So RayTracing is no longer locked to the NVIDIA maps? I know there was a workaround, but it will be nice to have easier access to all worlds.
