Updates and Battlefield 1 Myths Vol. 11

Hey pledges!

It's been a while since my last update, I dedicated the last week to basically hardware and software optimisation. Recording Myths and Behind The Myths simultaneously has been giving me problems recently (they have to be 2 separate recordings to keep Discord voices off the normal Myth footage) and I somehow ended up upgrading my CPU and PSU, messing around with overclocking, different recording configurations, etc. I really wanted to livestream the Behind The Myths stuff to Youtube but unfortunately it just hasn't been possible, from my end anyway, next step will be a GPU upgrade (currently rocking a GTX970 for anyone who wants to know), once that's upgraded maybe that can become a reality.

The main chunk of Battlefield 1 Myths Vol.11 has been filmed (cant believe we have got 11 episodes out of this game) but I still have a few things left to film, I'll write the current myth list below but it's very loose, some things might be cut, reorganised etc.

Myth list:

You can get a collateral with a Tank Hunter

You can destory 2 vehicles with one Tank Hunter shot.

A Tank Hunter can 1 shot Elite Classes

A Trench Raider can 1 shot Elite Classes

You can kill the pigeon leaving the St. Chamond tank

You can detonate dynamite with a flare

You can detonate dynamite with a flamekit

You can kill a teammate while on fire

You can save someone from a bayonet charge

You can throw explosives down a chimney

You can save yourself from fall damage using the hay bales on Rupture

(plus possibly something with the new  Siege Howitzer)

Big list but some things might be cut or left for Vol.12, or it will be a mega episode, who knows.

Also starting proper experiments with 'Backwards Battlefield', I tried just spectating random games but its too hard to luck upon cool cinematic moments so I think I will have to leave that to a big community recording in the future.

More ideas in the works, in the brainstorming phase of Overwatch Battle Bots 2.0 but a lot of roadblocks have happened with that series. They didn't release an Orisa bot, with Ana and Sombra they both came with an AI so that's really disappointing and apparently there are now hero limits when playing against AI which kindof ruins the whole idea. We'll see, I really want to do that idea again but more fleshed out, the comments gave a lot of useful feedback towards making it fairer, I want to do it properly this time.

My Wii U died so unfortunately Zelda Myths is probably dead, it's frustrating because I could have definitly got at least 1 more video out of that game but I have installed Cemu (Wii U emulator) so I might look into a Breath of the Wild ROM thing and possibly an end game save file, we'll see.

Jamison is working on The Beauty of The Witcher 3 and brainstorming Overwatch Myths Vol.11. Defend The Podcast #2 will be recorded in a few weeks.

Hope that's a pretty decent update, hopefully now I have my PC setup a little bit more organised, productive video creation can restart next week.

Thanks for the support!
