Game Scoop! 778: Plight of the Concord 

Please get Sam a new microphone

1:07:55 love hearing the kids fight in the background 😂

Dang Sam's audio is cutting out a ton this episode

Man, Nick's knowledge of older games is incredible, considering he was probably born in 92 or 93.

IGN is one of the biggest videogame websites on the internet, if not the biggest-- why can't their podcasts get decent microphones for all it's participants?

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN PLEASE STOP LEAVING US

Welcome back, Fridays aren't the same without Gamescoop!

Pro tip if your kids are screaming, temporarily mute your mic.

The kids screaming in the background haha

Here is request number 564 for Sam to either buy/or be given by IGN a new mic that's doesn't make him sound like he's podcasting from 2009. Thanks 👍

Oh yes!!! 1hr 20 min episode. Let’s goooooooo

Get Sam a mic…please!

Sam’s voice keeps voluming down that it’s hard to understand him at times… :-/

My body is ready...for more SCOOP! Welcome back, gentlemen.

This is one of the best podcast name episodes ever.

What's going on with this podcast quality. There's always an audio issue. On this one, it's mic audio cutting from one side, and at the same time, kid's screaming from the other side.

These guys are the most beautiful podcasters (on this podcast)

My official favorite 4 Omega Cops. 🇺🇸

More like Plight of the Audio Issues! Sam still needs a microphone and Justin needs to tell his quiet while I'm podcasting/working!

Would have loved it Justin got up and screamed in his kids faces to stop then Sat down like nothing happened

"People have turned against Helldivers" - ummm what???

Well done on the title. 👍🏻

Justin's kids going off in the background 😂😂 1000% relatable!

Super excited for the Castlevania collection for sure.

Concords cancelation is more publicity than it ever had

Not surprised they’re dancing around the white elephant in the room about why Concord actually failed.

Love the podcast but come on, every single week someone has audio issues

Well done with the title "Plight of the Concord" lol, S tier episode title. Whoever came up with that wins bonus points

Worth missing a week for this amazing title.

Sam comparing the stealth in this to MGSV is completely insane lol. The stealth is no where near that level.

Kinda surprised about the high praise for outlaws. Kinda Funny really tore into it, and most people think it'd ok

The episode title is hilarious, well done.😂

The answer to Sam's ladder rant about why would you want to go slow on a ladder is Stellar Blade

I’ve been waiting all week for Scoop to talk about Concord.

We missed you guys.

people didn't "turn on helldivers" it turned on them from discord mods to PSN debacle, nerfing and other things has killed its interests

Ign continuing to ignore the elephant in the room but that's why we watch other youtubers

Thanks for using the word “kerfuffle” it’s on my list of favorite words.

Love to see the main crew back at it; mark is always cool too though.

It’s Concordin’ Time!!!

Scoop there it is!

Concord didn’t have any design flaws?…

Concord isn’t coming back. Sony is not spending another dime on a game with almost no chance of rebounding.

The crew is back!

Plight of the Concord is WILD

So happy that scoop is back!!! 🔥

That was a great swerve from Daemon, Balatro is peak

Sam! Get a new microphone 😅

SCOOP IS BACK! GLORIOUS FRIDAY!

It's business. It's business time! 🎵

If you say there's going to be a twist, you've already spoiled it

I'm surprised there is confusion about Concorde. It didn't underperform; it CATASTROPHICALLY underperformed. When your peak userbase is less than 700 players in launch week, there is no path to success. Server support will be a loss and within a month there won't be enough players for matchmaking. It was literally dead on arrival and there's no way to save it.

Back with the pun, Plight of the Concord, fantastic!!

Gamescoop is back baby!

Great show as always fellas, hopefully a regular weekly cadence for a bit 🙏

Knaye once said. SCoop. Scoopidy scoop

Astro Bot looks a _lot_ like Super Mario Galaxy. Also, isn't the little Astro Bot guy just a robot Sackboy?

Daemon have you seen the movie Longlegs and if so what did yo think

Blastoise could be the 5th Ninja Turtle

Ladder.. amongst other things like holding a weapon and not being able to move to high ground with it. Etc. Allll of it can be explained with the fact that this is just the Assassin's Creed with a Star Wars paint. I'm sure the AC engine (which isn't just for graphics) was used to build this game. So if you can't go up ladders while keeping the new weapon you just picked up on AC, most likely won't you be able to here.

Great Stuff as always!

It’s business time!

To pull the plug this quickly they must've been considering canceling altogether but maybe wanted to just see if it accidentally hit first. My guess is that whatever convinced them to cancel Last of Us Factions must've carried over to the other games as a service games they're making right now as "not it" and want to get these developers off of this stuff and onto the stuff that Sony is known for.

It's so interesting that everyone liked Star wars and it is optimistily conflicted. But the opposite is true on starfield. They probably are influenced by each other.

Castlevania collection is great, classics!!!!!!

concord should have been a single player FPS

The genre combo questions cast too wide a net. Should only be permitted if there is a common thread between the genres.

Everyone said the game would fail after the open beta... its not that "unbelievable"

BESTIARY NOT BEASTIARY 🤦🏾‍♂️

I'm glad to hear the Outlaw's and Playroom are both enjoyable

you guys are recommending Star Wars Outlaws like a really heavy book

Justin this game is nothing like overwatch concord is an arena shooter it has more in common with halo or destiny multiplayer than overwatch

Why is Damen so shocked...they literally had 600 players at max(on steam) when it was FREE. Charging $40 for it would bring more players?

Scoop!!

I’m back in the U.S.S.A. 🎶

You're back. Was getting worried ign canceled you guys

despite all of the yapping, the only thing that matters came from the guy who said this is pretty much the open acknowledgement that consumers do not like gaas multiplayer games. how many more hundred million dollar bombs have to happen until the industry understands this? hopefully this finally scares away venture capitalist ghouls and shareholder vampires who dont actually care about games and they leave the space.

Launching a hero shooter with a $40 price tag with terrible skins and alright gameplay was what tanked it. I'd at least wait for Marvel Rivals to come out before assuming anything about the desire for the gaas market.

SCOOP !

Scoop!

amazing titleeeee 😂

Concord will go down in history as one of the biggest game failures. Throughout all consoles

Shout out to my home town of Roseville as well!

Daemon is correct Monster Train is superior to Slay the Spire.

Part of marketing is getting to know your competition. It's like Concord deliberately disregarded any of the competitors on purpose. It also appears as if they didn't conduct any polls or surveys either because it seems like they're just now becoming aware of all the negative publicity it's getting.. It's almost like they've been working inside a bubble all this time or something. The outcome of this game is just unreal. The game has some aspects on point, but not the main ones that really matter like the general appeal.

6:20 Anthem isn't dead yet. It is just not getting regular updates

We are in an age where one person can make a game that's a masterpiece, and huge triple-A titles with massive budgets flop at launch. Death by committee.

maybe tone down the B-roll spoilers a bit

Not sure Astro Bot can win over Black Myth Wukong for GOTY?

No, it’s not a tax write off. If the game were never released, they could write it off on their taxes, but since the game was released, they cannot write it off on their taxes. They tried to go out there and score points. It failed. They have to actually take the loss.

Degree’d 🎉

Justin discipline those kids! 1:07:56 😂😂😂

IGN Games, amazing video

Every time the scoop crew asks about genre in 20 questions, part of me dies inside. Please no more! Great episode!

9:28 Unless Phil Spencer was lying about Redfall, it is possible that these big companies with all their research and data can still get incorrect or misleading data

Other than Mark, Nick has the most sensible takes on this show

loved starfield. sunk over 250 hours into it. not a star wars fan but starfield made me interested in this game once it gets a discount.

SONY thinks that they are better than MICROSOFT and impervious to failure. Welcome to reality Sony.
