Episode 1.1: Hellfire Ramparts

In this first episode, Project Lore tackles Hellfire Ramparts… on normal. What? Yeah… five level 70’s take on a bunch of level 61 elites for your fun and enjoyment… with a few tactical suggestions along the way to help you when you run it yourself. Don’t worry. They know. So overpowered it’s comical. Rest assured future episodes will be run on Heroic. Let’s see how the guys destroy Watchkeeper Gargolmar.

    “I like breasts, what can I say?!”

    That was actually really fun. I hope you’re going to do a run down of all the different addons you’re using, I’ve seen them used but never with so clear an image - names, give names!

    Also? Where can I find a group of hot male geek gamers? Single would be good too… ;-)

    I hope that they can get the ball rolling and maybe show a more interesting instance in the game, but even that might not fly. Judging by their gear (no offence) they are going to be showing off content that the majority of the WoW community has already seen. My suggestion: Drink more, crack more jokes and maybe try and find something to discuss or bring up that not everyone knows (such as the lore summary describing the instance at the start).

    I was actually wonder something about the rogues UI. What are you doing to make the targets auras grow up the left side of metahud like that?

    Thanks,

    Wow, great episode guys. This will really help out people in Outlands. Jerry Trainor from iCarly (Nickelodeon show) plays WoW, that is great. He is beyond hilarious on the show and the fact that he plays WoW just makes it better! Great work guys, can’t wait to see more episodes to come! *thumbs up* 10/10!

    I jsut watched the first episode of Ramparts, very nice and high-quality video. Definitly much better than your average youtube fare.

    However, while the technical quality is great, I felt the video was a bit lacking in explanations, background for mobs/bosses/pulls/tactics/loot. Sure anyone can go read wowwiki and wowhead but you guys can integrate that knowledge while showing it live.

    Wow nice viedo loved it :D

    Love the whole jokes thing and the team play was great :D

    Cant wait for the rest :D

    By Steve Gillette on Wednesday, July 16th, 2008 at 10:50 am

    Awesome videos. Two suggestions: zooms on the loots and when you put up bottom third that says watch this pull, highlight the pull or mob, maybe freezeframe.

    Great vids guys loved them.

    I was wondering what that map addon DrDark had in the bottom right corner of his screen was called?

    does any one know?

    By AJ™ on Friday, July 18th, 2008 at 4:46 am

    Hey guys!

    Love the show so far. Just found out about it today.
    Though when beer, games, and Alex Albrecht is involved, I expect to lol. ;)

    Keep up the good work. I really like some of the suggestions, like the lootzoom and freeframe-highlight. *nod*

    By Juggynaut on Friday, July 18th, 2008 at 8:38 am

    @Lifedragon,

    The map is part of the show, not an addon :)

    Great stuff here man! Perfect for both the hardcore World of Warcraft players, as well for the more light players. Looking forward to the next episodes.

    Hey guys, just watched the first couple of shows and I’m very impressed. Great job in putting together a really nice looking site. Great job with the concept as well (which is of course the most important thing). Glad to see someone taking the stale walkthrough and making it a watchable experience.

    Looking forward to seeing you move onwards and upwards.

    By Borbock on Saturday, July 19th, 2008 at 8:05 pm

    This is perfect for me, my warrior just steped into outland and it looks like ill be running the instances as you guys take them on and ill know the strats so im not a total noob going into them. Just ran ramps for te 2nd time today and got the hellreaver which is amazing!

    keep up the good work guys, this is very helpful

    By Sadface on Saturday, July 19th, 2008 at 10:50 pm

    Wow, it dosnt take much to get sponsors and free computers anymore does it?

    Good effort, but any group of friends with a camcorder and free computers and money from sponsors could pull this off.

    By chrobae on Sunday, July 20th, 2008 at 2:16 pm

    Been watching Diggnation and The Totally Rad Show, and playing WoW since release. I saw your t-shirt on the 7/19/2008 episode of Diggnation, where you (Alex) gave this a short plug. Anyway, I’m definitely looking forward to this… Open up a forum! :)

    By aussie983 on Sunday, July 20th, 2008 at 4:02 pm

    hey Alex, really like the concept. Ramps on normal was a good start to get the show into a groove and see if it worked. Next time, though, let’s see a little more of a challenge for your 5 man such as a heroic, or trying to do higher instances 3-4 man like my guild

    ROFL, “Mr. Purple Bow Bullshit” its gonna be a while before I stop laughing at that.

    By Eddie on Sunday, July 20th, 2008 at 9:02 pm

    I kinda enjoyed the videos but I couldn’t get pass how “noob” you guys were… gear wise and experience. I mean i guess it’s ok for casuals but any semi-seasoned player can’t take your advice seriously.

    By 70 hunter orctastic on Monday, July 21st, 2008 at 7:58 am

    Love the show cant wait till next episode

    By Brewdison on Monday, July 21st, 2008 at 10:34 pm

    Like the show. Running low lvl instances when you’re a decked out 70 can be fun :D
    I ran Mech last night with some friends on my Arcane/Frost Mage, and we’re all in T5 gear. The tank was a holly pally, but I kept pulling aggro and tanking/kiting them. It was hilariously fun :)

    By LOL on Thursday, July 24th, 2008 at 10:58 am

    Nice job Alex. You should put this website as part of Rev3.

    Hey,
    I have just started playing World of Warcraft and was wondering as to what addons you are using? Thanks very much for helping out. Also great show and I will use this information in the end when I get to these instances.

    This is just TOO funny.

    I have watched the later episodes before coming back here and I have to say that the BEST part of these shows is the impromtu and hilarious dialogues that arise. The interaction between the characters feels like a comedy show.

    So I learn something AND i get entertained.

    I play on a European Server as well as a Server in Taiwan, in Chinese, i would so love to do a Chinese version of this, or have someone put up Dialogue translations for these in Chinese!

    It would be the Chinese Franchise, World exposure!

    Keep up the shows, these just keep getting better!

    By ExiT on Monday, November 3rd, 2008 at 12:59 pm

    can anyone mail me the name of the music played in the intro and trash-runout? Respect for the idea and the efforts of the guys!

    By lolnubcakes on Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 at 5:18 pm

    so overpowered it’s comical? you guys SUCK. i’ve seen and done norm ramparts solo, chain pulling multiple groups, with no crowd control. and ive seen level 58 groups take them down faster than that, wow you guys sure nubbed up ramparts on norm. no wonder you haven’t done more than gruuls….

    also you guys really failed at heroic mech. the mobs aren’t ‘invisible’ they port in once you kill the previous group. and the mobs don’t pull the boss, god.

    how retarded can you be?
