The Final Podcast

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:17:46 +0000

We previously announced that we were going to end the podcast after completing all of our planned shows, but after a lacking in response me and Nick decided we were going to end it there and then which is why there hasn't been any more episodes. But, after a few comments and some consideration we figured it wouldn't be right to just end it unofficially like that which is why we're going to record one last episode before we start Virtually Reality.

Because of an overwhelming amount of work we wont be able to record until Friday the 19th of march, but we would like to invite anyone who is interested in joining us for the recording at 8:00pm (please PM soulgraffiti in the forum for more info) on the UGC team speak server.

As for Virtually Reality, the whole website will be getting a makeover and organisation. we cant state when it will be ready yet though because we want to get our uni work and stuff out of the way first which will be somewhere after the last podcast... ish. but once its up and running it will be a lot more organised... ish.

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 16:31:54 +0000

i just got into diablo 2 again last night and wondered if anybody wanted to join me. weekdays i am usually on at 7:00, or 8:00. and some random times on the weekends, but always at night on weekends. i play in the US east realm. tell me if ANY of you are interested. oh, and you need the lord of destruction expansion pack to play with me. so if you dont have the expansion pack either go out and buy it for cheap or tell me and i can make a non expansion char so we can play.

Have You Ever Enginered Someone?

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:22:19 +0000

Well, if you don't know what it is you should watch this video!

in other news,

The second server will be taken off. It seems to me that for now one server is more than enough for The Fortress, and the main reason I purchased the secound server was that many of the The F members from Europe had high pings, and many said it was annoying. None of those played on it, so I have decided I'd rather save my money than paying for a server that is unnecessary. That's not saying the fortress will never have more than one server in the future, however.

PAX East

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:22:12 +0000

For the first time PAX is coming to the east coast United States, and it happens to be a little more than an hour away. For those who don't know, PAX is one of the largest video game conventions in the United States. Back in late 2009 I was pumped for this event but I somehow forgot. It is now about a month away and due to a combination of fortune and misfortune, I'm going. When I remembered it was too late and the weekend passes and Saturday passes were all out, and I cannot go that Friday, but luckily since Sunday was still selling tickets and it's happening on the week of my birthday. So in the end, I am going there on Sunday March 28, 2010. I intend to post my misadventures of the day, whenever that arrives, and with permission as a portal page. I thought that I should give everyone a heads up, and HURRAY FOR PAX EAST!

New Suff Is Coming

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 14:24:58 +0000

Since episode 1 of the L4D podcast, me and Nick have been producing episodes mainly for our own amusement. It started of as an experiment and we didn't expect to actually get listeners. Unfortunately, because people did start to listen and join in the community, it makes it so much harder stop. But, I can honestly say that the last episode we recorded with Stoned Wombat, Korean Thug and Langford was the most fun we have had recording a podcast for a long time because I actually felt like we got something out of it... even if it wasn't more listeners lol. But, the rest of the time, it feels like a chore.

Which is what this boils down to, the podcast is no longer any fun to record, and this is not good. How can you enjoy a podcast that we don't enjoy making? Let's be honest, it's not the best podcast in the world is it? And there's not much that we can to improve on it, because the only reason we made it a podcast is because microphones are cheap and any monkey with one can make a podcast. We've learnt a lot from what we've done but doing nothing but audio is not very stimulating to us anymore. So although we've decided to end the podcast it's not the end of the Survivors Diary, but the beginning of something new and hopefully more enjoyable than the depressing dystopian zombie apocalypse as we venture into more colourful and varied worlds!

Virtually Reality is our next experiment, it's not a podcast... okay, it's sort of a podcast, but not really... It's like a video gameplay podcast where we explore games co-operatively rather than just review them or randomly talk about them. As well as that we'll be releasing more general game related articles based on our own gaming experiences and interests, and because I am too lazy to write articles most of the time I'll be doing lone videos instead, along similar lines to the co-operative podcasts. Meaning a hell-ov-a-lot more releases for you guys to enjoy, and if you guys don't enjoy it, well we're going to be opening up a forum section for you to write or record your own. But also the actual main podcast isn't always going to be just us two, guests will also be welcome to join in some of our games.

So just to clarify, in exchange for our once every 2 week L4D podcast, this is what we hope to get Virtually Reality up to once the podcast is over:

- weekly co-op game play video podcasts that will sometimes be open for our community to join in on.

- single game podcasts (releases depend on the game, but mostly weekly)

- single game articles about our gaming experience (weekly from both of us). this will include console games from me, so it wont just PC platform.

- Occasional general gaming articles about stuff like art work.

- Open forum section to share your own gaming adventures.

for now, we're going to continue Recording the podcast until the 12th of April (4 podcasts from now) so we can finish off our planned shows and not end so abruptly. these podcasts will be open for people to join in on. as for the quarantine, we're going to try and carry that on after the podcast but include community maps from other games.

We'd like to thank everyone in our community and the UGC, and as a thank you, we'd like to invite everybody into the final podcast episode (recording on the 9th -11th of April) , where we will have no limit on who can be joining us for recording.. sure this may become a cluster f*** but its the last episode... so we dont give a F*** as long as we have fun. We'd especially like to thank Airon for cleaning up our audio, we never learnt but we're very grateful.

but, like we said, this isnt the end and we hope you all stick around to play a bigger variety of games with us for virtually Reality.

tanks for hanging around.

Episode 11 pre disscussion

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 16:41:48 +0000

for our feature we'll be talking about the new special infected and the tactic will be about the jocky.
we're still finding a map for the quarantine, but that will be in video form anyway. we wanted to review a popular hyped up map again because people seem more interested in watching those.

if anyone wants to appear in the 11th podcast then please read here before you apply.

Spy & Pyro

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 23:12:30 +0000

Playing off the classic Warner Brothers cartoons and Team Fortress 2 Community Memes, the video "Spy & Pyro" treats us to a surreal venture into a world of Team Fortress 2 all of us have considered but would rather not think about. This video is hilarious, and will be a timeless edition to Team Fortress 2 Community memorabilia.

Thanks to Srg.McMuffin for sharing this with us.
