Jake, heat fixed: A) Heat pump is sized too small, or B) it's a old crappy type. Newer ones heat good downtown -5 and are cheap to run, at least in Oregon our natural gas is about 30% more expensive than our mini splits. In Oregon it gets hot every year and last year got up to 115 but still growing up most houses didn't start having ac till the last 10 years or so. So kinda opposite problem. Hope you guys stay warm!
I've lived in Texas most of my 42 years. And it's always been like this. Every year Texan's act surprise that "cold" happens. Like it was a freak act that only happens predictably around the same time EVERY YEAR! There has been unusually lite or intense winters, but it annoys me to no-end that nobody takes the weather (minus farmers and ranchers) seriously. If a dusting of snow, or a inch of rain, its almost a natural disaster where the infrastructure isn't "prepared" for. I grew up in South Bend, IN with that lake-effect blizzards and still walked to school.
you see it's the legislation of texas that doesn't want to pay for cold-weather infrastructure or join in on the rest of the nation's power grid, fools who keep getting reelected because previous legislations were able to keep poor people from voting. those who die from hypotermia or other preventable infrastructure failings can't vote either so the status quo remains
Imagine living In Canada
stoked you guys did this ad and elaborated on it here, this mobile game industry is nuts. PLEASE do more with this, would love to see a one day challenge even if it doesn't have major story beats. Would be great to see a game programmed where no matter how good you do, it's impossible to beat like the ads do it. Props to Peter for trusting the crew, I figured he was in on it. Hearing that Matt and Jordan were genuinely concerned during the reveal makes it all that much better!
The weather in the three states was cool. The animal you were talking about besides bison or Matt was thinking of was lemmings which is also a classic game. These adds are crazy you need a long form video reviewing as many as possible with breakdowns and how this has evolved over time with lots of commentary especially on some of the most prolific adds. there is both a 60 minutes video on the addictive nature of mobile games or apps like daily login and task. Mrwhosetheboss talk about the hook of getting just little money spent in game to get further that just spirals to crazy. hope you see comment on old videos revisit them and those topics.
THANK YOU!!!! We watch Corridor on our living room TV and have been wanting an Apple TV App for years. So excited to not have to mirror from phone anymore. Thank you Jake!
33:17 Mobile gaming shouldn't be compared to normal gaming; it's actually just gambling with a new coat of paint.
Sure, there are exceptions on both sides, but the big bucks in Mobile come from abusing vulnerable people.
This podcast is my new favorite thing. The additional context you guys share is fucking awesome! Just got me to buy a Vessi lol
VR tour sounds awesome!
Loved the weather report segment, I'm with you 100% Jake on needed to be prepared for all those weather events, seems crazy to not have all those pipes Insulated and stuff but all comes down to money. From other comments sounds like upgrading the heat pump might be best route, otherwise baseboard electric heaters could be a good bandaid. Good luck in the cold, probably more to come soon 👍
Being from Indiana we swing from summer highs of 115 degrees to winter lows of -30 degrees. But in the Fall it can go from 80 degrees to 20 degrees and snowing in less than 24 hours.
NY expat living in the south (NC, now VA) and I don’t understand the lack of weather prep either. I lived in western NC, which is all mountains, regularly gets a few snows each year, and they have less than 10 salt trucks for the entire county. It’s standard to drip your pipes and we got single digits during that Christmas nonsense and I didn’t drip the faucet farthest from my water heater…which froze my pipes and I lost the ability to shower for 36 hours. Tangly the heat pump was pretty good at keeping me in the high 60s at least.
I do want to note on heat pumps. Minisplit heat pumps are much more efficient than conventional heat pumps and even gas furnaces for heating down to like 0 degrees. Same concept with reversing refrigerant flow to provided heat (still cools in summer)
I’m a native Texan from the Houston area and down here we haven’t really experienced these types of freezes since about 2020. Typically it would be 78 degrees on Christmas and the lowest we would get during winter would be maybe 40. Never had pipe issues until after 2020.
FYI, there are modern heat pumps that work in below freezing temperatures these days. Mitsubishi inverter heat pumps work down to about -13F. So you don't even need a furnace at all in a lot of states if you get the right tech.
Native Texan by way of El Paso, then moving to Austin. I can say, Almost every damn year we had pipes burst once if not three times a winter, because it got below freezing. On top of that it has snowed in Texas at least once a year as far back as 2008 I want to say? The state and everyone in it is just in deep denial that winters aren't "that bad".
"You have a very punchable face". "Thanks, I listen to a lot of soundcloud rappers" 😂😂😂😂😂
1) Yeah, the roads in LA are INVISIBLE in the rain, I complained that the lane lines aren't reflective so many times last month.
2) The ad you guys made was hilarious
3) Do you need VR to play the game or can it be played on a desktop?
last 4 years have been getting ice and spooky cold in Texas, it's the most amazing weather in the winter before then. It's perfect 70 during the day.
I love Peter so muchhhh. He is such pure chaotic good.
People dont understand when houses are insulated for hot weather then it is in turn insulated for cold. So most modern houses anyway are insulated.
Tv app!!!! Can't wait! My casting is always balls
I can't wait to download the Corridor app onto my TV
Yes! Street portraits!!
Born and raised Texan, and winters definitely feel harsher in recent years. Cold is normal, but seems like there's been more precipitation; And as much sense as everything you're saying makes (because I agree), I imagine most people here would rather spend money on things like pools and outdoor kitchens versus winterizing for the couple weeks a year it'd be necessary 😅
He has no clue what he's talking about.. As a native Texan, is what he said true? No one in Texas has furnaces or heaters, so when it gets cold everyone just bundles up in heavy coats and blankets in their houses? I highly doubt it.
For the last 30+ years every house/apartment I've ever lived in, in Southern California has had a Furnace. I've lived all over Southern California. LA, Valencia, Burbank, Palmdale, Longbeach, Chatsworth, Hermosa Beach, Sunland and Torrance.. I've never met anyone that didn't have heat. The Furnace blower, is what blows the air for your A/C.
"Barely gets below 45"? I know that's the meme but it's not true.
@@SaltNBattery Plenty of people do have furnaces (myself included), but everything about pipes not being winterized, dripping faucets, bundling up versus trying to heat the house above a certain temp, etc is all completely accurate. That said, further south in Texas you do start to get into areas where plenty of people don't have furnaces and are still experiencing unseasonably cold weather.
Jake, it's that big pipe money that keeps pushing for piping above ground, good for seasonal profits.
Of the 92 billion, Genshin Impact alone made 3+ billion, and interestingly they don't do fake ads, just straight gameplay and trailers.
It's also worth noting Genshin's mobile traffic is, while large, not likely as big as the PC and console playerbase. It runs on a phone, but isn't largely playable on anything except higher end ones.
Yeah, anime girls and gacha sell themselves... sadly.
@danielbr93 true but it is an amazing game, too.
I live online and have never seen one of those ads they are talking about. I see lots of mobile ads, but none of them feature the elements they are describing. It's very odd.
Are you guys gonna make a video out of the VFX caricature event?
As a Canadian.... 😂🤣 heat pumps work just fine after -30 Celsius
I know this because of euhm, reasons.... but getting some ads approved is a lot easier when you have an representative, so bigger ad agencies have those, and have it a lot easier.
Weird thing Is I've only ever had 1 mobile game. Small screen just doesn't make me want to play games on it, but to each their own.
The news on the TV apps is huge. It's been a major reason I haven't subscribed yet
Heat trace line for the pipes so they don’t freeze. Cheaper fix if you need.
As a Canadian, watching Jake describe certain temperatures as ridiculously cold, I can only chuckle. :)
As a Canadian I chuckle every time they describe certain temperatures are ridiculously cold and hot. Where I'm living we can fluctuate from 50°C in the summer to -40°C in the winter.
@@skunk_ink3954 Yep same here. I've seen 40 degree swings in 24 hours.
As a Canadian, I too can only chuckle
dont have VR gear but i'll buy the game to support Peter
Cant wait for the apple tv app
Bro I'm all in for playing that dating sim,
Pleas make it for pc man, but AH HELL YEAHH
As a Texan, anecdotally it does seem like its getting more extreme in the winters here recently. My hometown in deep south texas just got snow for the first time in almost two decades when the 2021 freeze hit and again froze this past winter. This is from an area that is usually like 50 degrees on Christmas at its coldest. Might just be recency bias but it does feel a lot worse recently.
Hey guys, I'm late to this convo, but this A.i argument is missing the fact that every artist trains on multiple artist styles, starting with the Masters. The artist themselves, based on this argument, stole the style of their favorite artist when they were learning.. The A.i is doing what all artist do use other artists' work as refrence to create their own work, it was trained on styles found in the image, Public images. There's no getting around that. "Thoughts of an artist"
Texas native here aaaand yea its always been like this. Seems to have gotten further south recently but its basically the same. 12 degrees is nothing hahaha we have 1-2 days with temps below zero or in the single digits. The heat pumps do work well enough if your house is properly insulated, which most houses are not lol. I think Texas surprises a lot of people lol no one prepares the roads well during that time either hahaha!
I'm in Canada, last week we had -25, Celcius with with and humidity it felt like -40 Celcius, I found Jake's rant about Texas funny and disturbing
Every place I've lived in Texas had natural gas central heat. No one here has heat pumps, but we should. They make heat pumps that work sub zero
Trying to make sense of things in Texas is like trying to squeese lemonade out of a quart of 10W-30, and I live in FLorida. So... yeah. lmfao.
Its been like that since I moved to Texas in 2016 I feel jake's pain these people are nuts. every time i bring it up they act like im making it up.
your market revenue for all games categories added up made less than Walmart last year.
Texan here, 15 years in Lubbock, 15 years in Austin. It gets below freezing here almost every year, this is rarely coupled though with snow and freezing rain. The freeze of 2021 was a once in a lifetime event. The storm of this year in which the trees get pulled out of the ground because of the weight of the ice on them is also a first for me.
So yeah cold temps are normal, the snow and ice isn't.
Thanks for the insight!

@@corridorcast Was going to say, you have a lot of good points about how we need to winterize everything here in Texas. Winter's have been getting harsher for sure. Climate Change is pretty visible here. Hotter summers every year and colder winters year over year. As a fellow Texan, these last 3 winters have been more extreme than the 10 prior to that by a lot.
No one has furnaces or heaters in Texas? Everyone just bundles up in heavy jackets inside their houses like hobos? I highly doubt that.
As someone who's lived in Southern California for over 30 years, every single house/apartment I've ever lived in has had a furnace. I've never met anyone who didn't have heat.
This is just another case of someone who has no idea what they're talking about and a very very tiny pool of experience, thinking they know everything after living somewhere for a little while.
@@SaltNBattery I have gas heaters but a lot of people just use electric heating. The power grid can't handle it. In 2021 the power demand was so high that it almost crashed the grid. It also has almost failed in the summer due to AC power consumption. At least will die free though, am I right?
as a Canadian, I to am cold, and our houses are built for it.
We all got food poisoning in Cancun
Oh HELL YEAH smart TV apps!
I just realised I'm following a game I'll never play. I don't have VR gear. Oh well, fellow gamedevs unite. And hey Peter, I'm a professional game rigger/animator who's now using Blender so feel free to hit me up for help if you want.
I have never related to jake so much in all my life.
A newer, properly sized heat pump should be adequate.
Am I the only one who mixes up Matt and Nick when listening to audio-only? Their voices sound very similar, through headphone audio at least
Jake-99% of houses never have a burst pipe. Roll of a die tho lol
Since 1995 none of the 4 houses I’ve lived in here have burst (DFW area)
What is Jake doing? Like a 10 minute rant about the weather and how much smarter he thinks he is than everyone else in Texas.
So him pointing out a problem in Texas is somehow wrong just cause he's out of state? Get a job
I find it odd how none of you guys mentioned Boneworks/Bonelab with comparable games to Heartshot, only Halflife. Or at least a mention to Brandon and his team for creating their own VR company since all of the core guys from Corridor know them. I don't know, maybe there's beef but found it kind of weird. The game looks fun though, Peter is a beast
In the main video they do look at the Boneworks trailer as an example of a good VR game trailer
cant wait for jan 2024 release date for the game
It's funny when you show people the chart of the gaming market in general. Mobile makes as much as PC and consoles combined.
Oh boy, mobile games are so much more than "jewel matching" :D Even back when I paid attention, it was cosmetics, loot boxes, pay2win and pay2pass time etc. BS. I wanted nothing to do with it. I barely even want anything to do with scummy PC gaming companies.
is Peter still at corridor on part time?
I feel like the beginning of this episode could’ve used Jonah talking about the Boston/New England winter. We get some crazy winters over here.
Favorite fake ad ever ❤️
You would think the southern states would've gone solar and off the grid decades ago too, but that definitely hasn't happened. Wonder why :D Nothing in the south surprises me nowadays.
you guys really seem to be missing the point that there is a huge personal and device info grab by the app/game maker when you download a free app they keep that even when you delete an app
With the winter storm stuff in Texas. It really blows my mind that Texans willingly deal with that and don't do anything about it. Sorry to be "political", but a portion of the state keeps voting for politicians who refuse to update the Texas grid/infrastructure so that it could better withstand/handle the, like Jake said, ice storm that comes every single year at the same time like clock work. It's just like "there are solutions to these problems guys, you don't have to freeze nearly to death every year" lol.
another thing to think about it is way simpler to make a interesting add where you just lie/make something up that is funny vs intentionally telling a interesting story about the game you are selling (i know i will never download anything that has the trash add for it) just bc they are so easy to recognize now and it is just a red flag for a crap product I really hope every one sees yours as satire and that it dose not turn people off from a cool game
So when are you gonna do clips for this channel?
Is everything a lie? Is this channel even real? Am *I* real!??!?!?!
I've deleted a hundred comments where I'm upset with Jake and how he sucks the air out of the room but come on. The first twenty minutes of this podcast and practically every other is filled with his hubris.
