Gaf's close shave:

Chris and I chillin' waiting for this dude to come out the house:
 
After the quietest solo I've ever played, it all came down to this: (for 4 minutes)
and obligatory WWCD:

THIS SHIT IS FUCKING INSAAAAAAAANE
 
shame i didnt have my mic enabled

This game is good fun, I may play 20 hours I may play 100, but I don't give a fuck, you know why?
I paid for the cunt not you so stick your hypothesis up your arse.

More meat for me

Im sure many people would say the same about csgo. You play the same maps maybe 2-3 times a day, you play csgo every day like some people to do you can be playing maps like mirage and cache maybe 8-10 times a week. The map is the literally huge with quite alot of interesting stuff dotted around to discover, I have seen underground military bunkers, ancient ruins, power plants, schools all sorts. Stating this game has 40 hours in it max is an compete understatement, you don't keep coming back to games like csgo to see new stuff, you go back again and again for the feeling it gives you, people who enjoy this will get that exact same feeling. Some people can rack up hundreds and hundreds of hours on games like H1 and ARMA, this game is no different if not better, so there is no reason why it shouldn't do well.     
I am not a huge fan of BR games, and as a result my feelings towards this game is kinda hit and miss, sometimes I find it very fun, other times less so. I do not think they should be charging 26 pounds for this. No where near that amount, the game is still buggy as all hell and in pretty game breaking ways too. Getting stuck in cars, the parachuting landing is a joke, people crash all the time. "But its an early access game, you gotta expect that" some people cry. No. That should not be the culture we should be encouraging, that its perfectly fine and expected for a game to release at almost full price and be as technically flawed as so so many early access games are. 
Early access was meant to be a way in which smaller developers could get certain parts of their game working and then show it off for a short peroid of time, sort of like a tech demo for those enthusiastic enough to maybe buy into for a small fraction of the game would be when it released, a release date that was planned and worked towards from the very start. Many games have done this effectively, Kerbal Space Program and Killing Floor 2 to name a few. However some games, and these indie BR titles are especially bad for it, seeing early access as some way to basically just release a less than finished game and are extremely vague about what the finished product is meant to look like or if it will ever come out.  
Do I think PUBG is good? Yes, I think it has huge potential, the gunplay is punchy and satisfying, the graphics are actually not that bad at all, it feels much tighter and more competitive that games like H1 (even though I havent played that much, I'm going off what other people say) and seems that they are chasing the perfected form of what a game in that genre should look like. Although as I said before this game should $20 (15 quidish) MAX, absolute max.  
Also @Lewis, that is a pretty accurate hypothesis and it does happen often, but people should still be allowed to take a break from CS right? Sometimes diversity is good, sometimes people get excited about a game that just provides a bit of a break to the same routine everyday.

Our story begins in 1995.
In Bath, England, one couple - a certain Jane and Chris - had just had their second child. They were full of optimism, love and flourished in the unbridled juggernaut that constituted the western world in the glorious nineties - pre 9/11, with astonishingly high standards of living.
They were both 30 and had just married.

They named their second child Darcy, but, as fate would have it, witnessed first hand in the hospital the growth of Darcy as a name for girls, and so replaced Darcy's name with Harrison - thus the family became a quartet: Jane, Chris, Olivia and Harrison.
1999: The Millennium grew close, and so did the family; they travelled abroad to France in the summer of that year, and explored the south around Cannes as they basked in the sun.

By 2001, young Harrison had become close to a good friend - Daniel, who moved abroad to France one year later. The two became a duality, executing all kinds of mischief in the small Somerset town in which they resided.

Time went on, and so did suspiciously awful hairstyles - by year 6, the young Harrison had reached his most hideous, but also went ice-skating for the first time.

By year 10, Harrison had found a merry band of winder-uppers, who were suitably detached from mainstream society to believe that they represented a new wave of 60's counter-culture and were artistic visionaries who would take the world by storm.

Ironically, they were right, travelling to Berlin that summer and living life on the edge - and by edge, I mean safe, structured tourism.

In year 11, tragedy befell Harrison when he lost his hand in a car crash.

Unperturbed, Harrison found some kind of love, as well as success in his GCSEs - the struggle upwards through A Levels began, however.

Daring further than ever before, Harrison represented his town in an official ambassadorial role, being sent to Germany to serve his council in the yearly quadripartite in Bavaria. He also met hot Americans.

Eventually, A Levels began, and with them crippling alcoholism - here Harrison struggles with the effects of alcohol:

And again:

By December 13, Harrison, who had now assumed the mantle of Wist, experienced the first great failure of his life - he applied, unsuccessfully, to Oxford. His experiences there, and the friends he made, would stir him to reapply and strive to achieve even higher in the future.

One year passed, and although Wist lost many friends to the pull of adulthood and university, he achieved one great thing - he was admitted to the University of Cambridge, where he will begin in 2015.

The rest, as they say, is l'histoire.

Chapter Three
Succeeding Gaz came Biggles and his small council: The era of the Republic.

Interior of the Council Chambers
The Republic had one goal in mind: Open a server as fast as possible, and they did to the tune of minigames. The server saw initial success but failed to maintain people's attention, and began to suffer DDOS attacks later on. But the server had done one thing: it gave the community a new lease of life, and what had been a scattered, ragtag band of gamers found a little purpose and marched on.
By September 28th, Outbreak returned to its roots: The Empire struck back, and Jailbreak was opened.

Members of Outbreak watch the source code of Jailbreak form inside of Conor's kidneys
At last the community found its roots, and the old passions that many of its members held came to fruition. The server went from strength to strength, acting as it did as a source of membership, revenue and community. The explosive growth of Jailbreak drove the community forward, but it did so turbulently: the server demanded more and more time from already weary administrators who had busy lives: by January, the man who had saved Outbreak, Biggles, found that his stewardship had to end.

Real image of Biggles
What left was the team made of up Conor, Venga and Gaffer. The team began introducing new changes: dividing mods in two, restarting events, expanding the community even further, upgrading the servers, finding new deals and holding the community: with its raft of new members, together. Sadly, by April Gaffer too felt his time with Outbreak had come to an end, and stepped away, leaving Conor and Venga.

Pictures of the final trio: From left to right, Conor, Gaffer and Venga
There was no rest for the wicked. Within seven days, the largest DDOS attack Outbreak had suffered struck, and the server was wiped off the map. Outbreak's hosts, Trueworldgaming, were hacked and destroyed days later, and the community had lost all of its files and success so far. The next month saw a limping Jailbreak server snuffed out of life multiple times, unable to poke its head above the water for more than a day at a time before the jailbreak server was annihilated by denial-of-service attacks and exploits.

The only image recovered from the initial DDOS strike: here, the three main DDOS vehicles are pictured launching their initial qconnect barrage.
As the dust settled, and April fell away like rain on the mountainside, Jailbreak pounded back. The DDOS attacks were lifted, new hosts were found, the source files were largely recovered, and Outbreak was rewarded with a full server constantly. This marks the most recent glory days of Outbreak's history: It was enormously powerful, and the server's rise to the forefront of UK jailbreak was largely unprecedented. Within weeks, it was the only viable choice for UK-based jailbreak, and it has been ever since.

Outbreak's Jailbreak fleet strikes back, image sometime early May
Two weeks into this glorious period, the council saw the loss of Venga, who, battle-weary as he was decided to step back and away from Jailbreak, to pursue a career in finance and suspicious amounts of memes.

Venga captured by OG forces, late May
The server and community required aid, and Conor enlisted the help of an old administrator - Wist - to help. Wist became Conor's padawan, and rose through the ranks quickly to become Co-Owner and began planning the future of Outbreak. The two joined forces to hire new moderators, build a wider community, drive events, and embezzle money: Their watch saw the community grow into its two facets - the era of the OGs and the Jailbreakers.

Conor carries Wist on his back, late August.
Under Wist and Conor's watch, the last stages of their schemes were realised: The community introduced Outbreak Veteran, made the last plans for the future, and began the climb to Outbreak as a multi-server community. Tragically, Wist's role in Outbreak was on a time limit: He had to leave in late September to go to University, leaving Conor alone. They were aided by SonyTwan, who's brief stint as an administrator drove the community from strength to strength. Sony's time at the helm was short-lived however, and he left within a few months.

What follows now is the post-monoserver era: Conor, with his two padawans Kartoffel and Unseen, fly the trusty old HMS Outbreak into new waters, and on to ever stranger tides.

Unseen, late September

Kartoffel takes command, also September

Interesting Stats I highlight for you
-On the first day of the tournament, Vengence had the most frags of all 30 players, with 53. On day two, with just 20 frags, he dropped 26 places on the daily frag tally to 27th/30.
-Pasickle didn't plant a single bomb in the tournament, but defused 2.
-Mintlou was the highest performing '5th pick' of the tournament
-Team 2 contained both of the highest F.E.D players
-Lowest F.E.D of whole tournament goes to Pasickle with 9.9, may this be a lesson to you to go use flashbangs
-Jamie had the least deaths of the tournament with 73, he also had the least deaths on his team in all 5 games.
-Fluxy stayed true to the tradition, and secured under 10 F.E.D every game 
-Chus had 2 games exactly the same, back to back, (24-2-21 89 ADR)
-Every player had at least 14+ assists in the tournament
-221 bombs were planted and 48 were defused, making a defuse rate of: 21.7%
-15 matches played, but not one overtime (several 16-13's / 16-14's)
 
Popflash stats explained
CLUTCH KILLS - You only receive clutch kills if you WIN the round you got the clutch kills in (in a 1vX situation). If you were in a 1v4, get 3 kills and lose, you're rewarded 0 clutch kills
HS % - This is how many shots hit the head, which make contact on the player, not how many kills are a HS. I left this out cos cba to work out the average, but absolute got the highest in a game
FLASHBANG ASSIST - If you throw a flashbang, blinding an enemy, and then you, or a teammate kills that temporarily blinded player, you get a flashbang assist.
F.E.D = Flash-Enemy-Duration
ADR = Average Damage Per Round
HLTV Rating - http://www.hltv.org/?pageid=242&eventid=0

stop stealing sweets from your local newsagents

Try shopping elsewhere for your shoes, you'd be amazed at how fashionable it is to kick back to the classic contemporary styles. Try John Lewis or somewhere similar. Ditch the weezys or whatever they're called.
