September plans.
Added 2017-09-09 20:26:54 +0000 UTCI was a bit unsure about what would be coming up on the channel next but after some brainstorming and some experimental editing I have a mild idea of whats coming next and it might be a slightly unusual month.
Apart from some remaining voice acting the 'Different Players in PUBG' idea is done. There are 16 different ones and I don't think that will change so it should officially be called '16 Different Players in PUBG'. If this ends up being a series, it might take me a few episodes to get the series where I want it to be, I'm happy with how its edited but I think there's more room for comedic elements. I'll see how feedback is. I'll post a few of the player types that will be featured but i'll keep some a surprise:
'The Streamer'
'The Stream Honker'
'The Bad Grenader'
'The Slow Looter'
If you know PUBG well you should be able to guess of a few that will appear, I have enough ideas for a full 2nd video too.
Let's go over myth stuff quickly. I have enough for one more PUBG video then I'm pretty much fresh out. I actually haven't recorded most of Vol.5 but I'm gonna go ahead and post the intended list mostly because they're the only major ideas I have left.
Myth list (final wording to be determined):
You can deflect a grenade with a pan.
You can ram a landed crate into someone.
You can die from fall damage when landing in water.
You can land on a teammate to break your fall.
You can flip a boat.
You cannot run over early game AFK people.
You can safely bail out a vehicle at high speed if you simultaneously collide with an obstacle.
I will also be doing a very quick 'Revisited' myth for PUBG too. We haven't had to revisit any myths for a long time but in the last PUBG video, I busted that the loot on spawn island stays there into the main game. People in the comments mentioned that the reason they aren't there is due to players having picked them up, if they were left where they were (or dropped before going into the plane), they would still be there. I don't want to squeeze this into Vol.5 so I will make it its own short video next week.
Battlefield 1 is still going reasonably strong. Vol 17 is happening for sure and hopefully Vol.18 too. The new DLC should help quite a bit. More Titanfall 2 Myths are 100% coming too.
I haven't properly started filming it yet but the list for 'Small Details in Battlefield 1' is done, for the first episode at least. I have no idea how I'm going to edit it but filming will be done next week. New concepts take a bit longer than usual due to figuring out the new editing format so it probably won't be out for a little while.
Now for some brand new announcements!
A Halo 3 video is coming? Wut? Halo 3? Yes, it's the 10 year anniversary of Halo 3 on the 25th of September. Halo 3 is where DTH started, its also where I first met Caleb and Matt after episode 3 of Halo 3 Mythbusters. I went straight to the forums to hope to help in an episode. Things have changed a bit since then. It's also where I met Jamison, so much of the channel is founded in that game and its community, we will be commemorating it with a tribute video this month. Jamison will be making it, we actually did a quick custom games session last week for some footage and the game is still so fun.
Lastly, this is a wild one but I think I'm going to make a new Bot Battle using Beast Battle Simulator. If you've never heard of the game I will let the Steam page speak: http://store.steampowered.com/app/671620/Beast_Battle_Simulator/
It's a super stupid idea but I played some the other day and watching a T-Rex with cannons fight 70 dogs is SO DAMN AWESOME. As a video creator, I express my creative freedom to make a video where dinosaurs fight each other in large numbers and no one can stop me. I haven't quite figured out how I want it to play out, I was thinking about just creating some fun match ups and asking the audience to bet on the outcome, making for a wacky and interactive video where animals and dinosaurs battle while the audience cheers for their selected side (Beast Battle Betting?).
Content might start getting more experimental from here on out, I feel at this stage, I have earned peoples trust and proved that I can do the myth series well and consistently and I will keep that going but in between that, I'm just gonna make some weird shit.
