Man Node was such a big part of my childhood. This set up video made me take pride in my setup when I finally saved up enough money to build my first PC I was around 13-14 during that time and I’m 22 now and I still come back to watch this video every now and then.
Same here dude, good times. I pick through the old Node vids every now and then to remember some good memories. I am planning on introducing VGHS to my gf, such a great era of content.
Ascdren Whaaaaat? A legitimate media enterprise is taking advertising sponsorships to make money off of a service that they give out to us at no cost to the viewers? That's crazy talk! They should be drawn and quartered for their shenanigans!
I just hope you guys appreciate all this stuff. Most people can't even afford a single computer with half the power of your lowest end one. But this is just awesome.
When I started watching these guys on different channels, I always saw Brandon as a backround kind of guy but now it seems he is running the whole thing. He even did a video with Lindsey Stirling :D
When Node started it was really just Brandon, Freddie, Niko, and Sam just recording them playing video games and recording it but Since Freddie kinda ditched it for VGHS Brandon really runs it now. Sam and Niko are childhood friends of his, like how Freddie was his friend in college. I'm not to sure if D was another friend, or they just hired him and he took Freddie's place.
It's not them being rich it's a working studio that creates after effects and other products. And it's just that they have a large income from they're products
or 2 adults who went to college and made a living and saved up and got sponsored then god free iteam they even say origin was kind enough to send them they arent rich or they could buy them it was gift and if they were rich they would have a super nice place with super hitech expensive equitment they are using what they can get with what they have... so before you make a comment like that grow a pair get a job and a life get sponsored and rent a space to work then post a vid of your space then get back to us
You guys should do a video like this every month, even if you didn't do much and its a 2 minute video. It would be cool to see the "LAN Base" grow and become even more epic then it already is
Do you know how much it would suck if you guys got robbed?! Thousands of dollars of equipment would be lost. I really hope you guys have good security.
Three years later, I'm reflecting on when I saw this video back when it came out and reflecting on how I have a 1070 in my PC and their top of the line pcs had 780s
He's also not part of Node, he and Brandon went their separate way professionally. Freddie left to work specifically on RocketJump which is in a different building altogether. That's why you don't see him around any more.
In America if someone was planning on killing them they would just come in with some assault rifle. No need to take a blunt sword off the wall. America is a fooking crazy bloodbath.
Hey I know this is a common question but im a console peasant and was thinking qbout getting good pc so I could play games like dayz, arma3, counter-strike, all that cool stuff, anyways I was wondering how much a good gaming pc would cost, in total with all the fancy bits and bobs
Jordan Adams Just stay away from Laptops and you will be fine. Also, if you check on Node's videos, Brandon did one where he compared buying a PC to Building one, so that might help.
Electroballistic reddit.com/r/mechanicalkeyboards will be able to fill you in the best, but a Corsair K70 will do you much better. With regards to headphones, I must admit I don't know a ton when it comes to headphones, but I do know that they're very overpriced for what you're getting.
I seriously dig the cable trolley idea. Had no idea you guys had t setup that way. I always thought those PC that were up on the wall were servers and the actual PC towers of the ones behind the couch were on the floor under the desks. Hmm you guys gave me the idea of setting up something like that in the future. Very clean and well done whose ever idea it was.
I don't agree with their razor kraken headsets they are not very good quality and have a life expectancy of around 6 months. I have known people who have even received them broken hardware wise on arrival. Also the god awful delay. I would avoid like the plague but razor's other products seem to be top notch :D
I've had mine for around a year and a bit now, and I take mine out when I go skateboarding, I leave them in my bag if I'm in a rush, they're really good, it's only now that they're starting to "decay". but they really are a nice pair of headphones.
Thats awesome. also good to see someone has some craftsmanship skills to build the stairs. You guys look like you stay in shape too which is good for all the sitting required for editing/gaming
"5 top of the line PCs." I remember drooling over the computers they had, now my mid range GPU is more powerful than the GPUs they had then. How time flies :P
You guys have gone a loooong way! I used to watch you guys when you were all in just a room with Freddie but now you've got your own building to work in. I'm so proud, keep up the good work. Looking forward to more awesome content on this channel.
jesus, I hope you guys don't take all that stuff for granted. I hope you guys know that you have everyones dream job! Congrats on being successful and getting to have an amazing life!
Mad respect for the blackwidow but especially the deathadder. I used to have the original until it (partially) broke after 5 years of great service. Now I have the deathadder 2013 and i love it even more.
Do they still have this setup? It's honestly the coolest setup I've ever seen. Maybe it's where Brandon and his crew work on Boneworks projects, wonder if they still have raidens sword.
I saw an instagram post some time ago. Yeah they do still have the sword and TV but the original 5 Origin PCs are gone but at least the couch is still there
Man Node was such a big part of my childhood. This set up video made me take pride in my setup when I finally saved up enough money to build my first PC I was around 13-14 during that time and I’m 22 now and I still come back to watch this video every now and then.
SAME! they dont make the quality they used to but maybe thats just the nostalgia factor.
Same here dude, good times. I pick through the old Node vids every now and then to remember some good memories. I am planning on introducing VGHS to my gf, such a great era of content.
I have a playlist of videos from 2013-2024 , node is all over it and many others. I just know time moves too fast
Finally a tour. This is a true LAN party setup. Not a couple Xboxes or Playstations. This is the real deal.
you can thank there sponsors, monster, razar and origin computers for this 8 minute advert. it was probably mandated to keep the sponsorship
Ascdren So what, I would advert them as well if they gave me this stuff
Idc they get to put in amazing videos... So what
Ascdren Whaaaaat? A legitimate media enterprise is taking advertising sponsorships to make money off of a service that they give out to us at no cost to the viewers? That's crazy talk! They should be drawn and quartered for their shenanigans!
Yeah, it's pretty much an 8 minute advertisement, but it's still pretty sweet! :D
5 years later and this lovely setup is no more. Not even Brandon is left in Node :/ 2020 is the darkest timeline.
But 2021 is the opposite for NODE.
Is it even possible to improve this set up?
Yeah but that's definitely unnecessary overkill :P
Fancier building idk
Yeah, the building does seem a bit closed off. The lack of windows would be a bit depressing :P
***** get paintings of personal interests
***** yeah they need winscapes (www.rationalcraft.com/Winscape.html)
Burglar's heaven.
PC Gamer burglar. Or yeah, any burglar.
Don't worry, Bandit stands guard every night.
Bubs and Pyramid Head
lol
Within the first 2 seconds of them showing their LAN party room I was like "yep, they're sponsored by Razer"
lilturk726 Or Razer accessories look pretty cool. (And they're pretty good too. Although a bit expensive.)
We need a new tour though, guys! With VR and stuff, you probably upgraded the hell out of this mancave
"And, this, is a space monster trying to take it down."
D: "Like a Razor Kraken?"
"Yes, like a Razor Kraken."
XD
I remember being so incredibly hyped for that control VR stuff they were developing
Freddie looks good. Lost some wight and ditched the glasses for contacts.
that's not freddie, its D freddie isn't involved with node anymore
oh my god i just laughed my ass off.
I can't tell if he is joking or not .
oh my god i dont know, but that is funny as fuck.
I just hope you guys appreciate all this stuff. Most people can't even afford a single computer with half the power of your lowest end one.
But this is just awesome.
I'm pretty confident Brandon came up with the PC / Couch setup, he always sounds so excited and giddy when talking about it.
the RAZER jokes THey NEED TO STOP YOUR ARE KRAKEN ME UP
lol
D WHATS YOUR LEAGUE NAME?
WHAT RANK ARE YOU?
WHAT LANE DO YOU MAIN?
WHAT CHAMP DO YOU MAIN?
SO MANY QUESTIONS
If you followed him on Twitter you'd know that he tweets out when he's playing and invites us to play.
I DUN HAVE TWITTER
TELL ME
oh nvm i found him
Good luck, I hope you get to play with him.
yea man, same to you
Man they are living the life! Free monster refils, all the computers, just the whole setup.
DAMN, those are some powerful PCs. The specs are marvelous. And the cable management is a stroke of genius
When I started watching these guys on different channels, I always saw Brandon as a backround kind of guy but now it seems he is running the whole thing. He even did a video with Lindsey Stirling :D
When Node started it was really just Brandon, Freddie, Niko, and Sam just recording them playing video games and recording it but Since Freddie kinda ditched it for VGHS Brandon really runs it now. Sam and Niko are childhood friends of his, like how Freddie was his friend in college. I'm not to sure if D was another friend, or they just hired him and he took Freddie's place.
AjsteliKa D used to film the origianal LAN parties and edit the other old content, he basically runs node and now with brandon.
*How to know your rich*
Randomly find a charged google glass laying around on top of your $3,000 gaming PC
So true
It's not them being rich it's a working studio that creates after effects and other products. And it's just that they have a large income from they're products
Derez but they are actually rich from all their RUclips money, merch and sponsors etc
YESSSSS PYRAMID HEAD he's my favourite character from anything ever. One more reason I'm addicted to this channel
"Oh look there's like a google glass hanging out right here" Damn. i wish a random google glass would pop out of nowhere in my house too
this video is just two giddy kids showing you what they got for Christmas
someones ringing the jell bells
Someone got coal up their ass...
or 2 adults who went to college and made a living and saved up and got sponsored then god free iteam they even say origin was kind enough to send them they arent rich or they could buy them it was gift and if they were rich they would have a super nice place with super hitech expensive equitment they are using what they can get with what they have... so before you make a comment like that grow a pair get a job and a life get sponsored and rent a space to work then post a vid of your space then get back to us
Dude just be quiet
That was a comment of a child who didn't get his xbox one ;-]
All that cost around $2,200 USD.... I amazoned it all.
Did you mean 22 thousand or 220 thousand or are u joking
For one computer...
Michael S I think he means just for one persons set up.
Oh
wow, that's actually pretty ridiculous! I WANNA BE RICH TOO! :(
It's like the ultimate man-cave. Add a bar stocked with beer, maybe a blackjack table and you're set for life.
Nice sponsorships, by the way.
Pyramid head is such a bad ass! They even captured his essence really well in the movies. I'm surprised more people haven't said anything.
imagine how much all this would have cost if they paid for it all, jesus its insane that it was all given to them.
First time I had a LAN party with my friends his cat died. Second time I had a LAN party my cat died. I AM NOT HAVING ANOTHER LAN PARTY!
LNG Varck for real tho?
JM Mallari I am being 100% serious no sarcasm or anything. His cats name was Rascal and mine was Cherish and she was adorable and barely a year old.
awww. condolence :
LNG Varck Thats messed up .-.
LNG Varck did you ever think that someone who got invited to both lan partys killed the cat?
it can't be said too many times, NODE the most perfect intro. it's powerfull and not to long, it's just perfect
You guys should do a video like this every month, even if you didn't do much and its a 2 minute video. It would be cool to see the "LAN Base" grow and become even more epic then it already is
Do you know how much it would suck if you guys got robbed?! Thousands of dollars of equipment would be lost. I really hope you guys have good security.
They got a dog.
Fear it.
Order of Champions Him*
With all those airsoft guns I'm positive someone there has at least one real protective firearm.
Im fat bullets just go into me and never come out
They have security cams and door code locks they are sponsored so they would get they're money
This is my dream right here
If i had a place like that i would bang out that place with my friends gaming all day and chilling, you guys have built a heaven.
I had to pause the video and cry a little bit, its too beautiful.
that electricity bill and also the equipments must be heavy expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!! what happen to Freddie???
He's out on the streets doing sfx to pay the bills... It's a hard life for a special effect creator these days
Gage Horton ikr getting alot of money from kickstarters for VGHS season 3
Freddie is over-rated and gay no1 cares.
junkrat1 i care.
junkrat1 Shut Up
Woooooooooooow. I love how fucking serious this setup is. What internet provider do you guys have? Just curious.
Probably Double, because so many.
More than likely Verizon bc the fiberoptic .. their is others those who provide fiberoptics
Ben Dover They use TWC
This is too badass. The tech levels in this room are TOO DAMN HIGH!
Three years later, I'm reflecting on when I saw this video back when it came out and reflecting on how I have a 1070 in my PC and their top of the line pcs had 780s
Where is Freddie?
Working on vghs
He's also not part of Node, he and Brandon went their separate way professionally. Freddie left to work specifically on RocketJump which is in a different building altogether. That's why you don't see him around any more.
maxjonson its pretty sad because freddie is awesome. hopefully he comes back after season 3
***** no, its not.
***** Its not ogre. Its never ogre
Do another Minecraft play-thought!!!
Sick set-up. Ridiculously nice.
I cried when I saw the set up... ITS BEAUTIFUL!
um...building code says you need a railing on those stairs. Just so you know.
F the police
Fuck the popo
#YOLO
Gage Horton And good riddance.
and fuck Konami too, they aren't getting no sword.
This is every teen guys dream room
Can't wait to start uploading gaming videos! I love watching them (especially on node) so it just seems fit to make them as well!
sees the red tower ..(throwup,tears,spit and earwax dribble onto the floor) this is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen... :,)
2:05 Nice Thong =)
Re-evaluate your life
node vs linusmediagroup lan please
+AoSRecon YES!
+AoSRecon with the seven gamers one CPU rig.
that would be insanely cool
linusmediagroup would get destroyed xD
I usually don't watch these type of videos because I get so jealous of how good the setup is lol.
0:46 Ha Control VR. Those were the days
What's the background music?
Have you dulled your blades? It's pretty fricken dangerous to have a sharp blade on wall without a scabbard on.
They're display models and props, of course they're not sharp. :p
but if they're metal of course they can kill. It's like having an unloaded gun, though not deadly you still treat it with respect.
Joshua Cachero If its not sharp, its just a slab of metal. You treat it with as much respect as you would, say, a pipe or a rock.
In America if someone was planning on killing them they would just come in with some assault rifle. No need to take a blunt sword off the wall. America is a fooking crazy bloodbath.
***** Assault rifles are banned in the US.
'NodeLife' is truly the dream life to live.
Brandon is way too cool... he needs to be more popular. Even though he already is really popular.
How do they afford all of this?
Insert tf2 I have no idea
Drugs.
gdh6200 lol
They have jobs, they make money. It's not like this costs that much.
gdh6200 Hardcore* drugs.
Hey I know this is a common question but im a console peasant and was thinking qbout getting good pc so I could play games like dayz, arma3, counter-strike, all that cool stuff, anyways I was wondering how much a good gaming pc would cost, in total with all the fancy bits and bobs
*About
depends how good you want it, but around $1,000 for a decently good one to run those games well. If you want to run them really well, then $1,500
Jordan Adams Just stay away from Laptops and you will be fine. Also, if you check on Node's videos, Brandon did one where he compared buying a PC to Building one, so that might help.
Okay thanks guys I'll look for the vid and ill keep those prices in mind
Jordan Adams
You'll need around $500 for a decent one. Maybe $1000 if you want the good stuff.
I'd do ANYTHING to get just 1 PC like theirs.
This is the most jellyworthy thing I saw in my life.
I'm gonna go and cry now.
You guys should do a tour every year because I want to see the stuff like, The Wall of Guns when they get mounted
what happend to freddie wong
I'm guessing he is working on VGHS
PrzFLUX What i know is, that he dont do short videos anymore. He is into bigger projects!
WHAT'S DANTE'S LEAGUE IGN??
Who's Dante...
q
D's real name is Daniel Kim...
q
***** no D's real name is *Darude Sandstorm*
*walks in the room slow claping* well done Node
By any standard, these guys are living the dream.
3d print a 3d printer
+Tanner McCall 3dprinterception
Razer- "Top of the line"
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure...
Note: Their mice are decent, but for headphones and mech keyboards, you can do a LOT better.
Such as
Electroballistic reddit.com/r/mechanicalkeyboards will be able to fill you in the best, but a Corsair K70 will do you much better. With regards to headphones, I must admit I don't know a ton when it comes to headphones, but I do know that they're very overpriced for what you're getting.
Do you even know what would possibly happen if they didn't say that?
Hevy Wepuns Gai Didn't say what?
They're being sponsored by Razer...
I'm proud of how far you all have come with your channels and getting sponsors and such. Good job to everyone at Node and keep up the good work!
I seriously dig the cable trolley idea. Had no idea you guys had t setup that way. I always thought those PC that were up on the wall were servers and the actual PC towers of the ones behind the couch were on the floor under the desks. Hmm you guys gave me the idea of setting up something like that in the future. Very clean and well done whose ever idea it was.
I don't agree with their razor kraken headsets they are not very good quality and have a life expectancy of around 6 months. I have known people who have even received them broken hardware wise on arrival. Also the god awful delay. I would avoid like the plague but razor's other products seem to be top notch :D
They can't really complain since they received those from a sponsorship.
Life expectancy? Wtf?
I wouldn't be too sure about that. Mine has served me well for about a year now, it has very good sound quality, and a fine mic.
Ryan Higginbotham true but for the viewers I feel it's best to warn them :P
I've had mine for around a year and a bit now, and I take mine out when I go skateboarding, I leave them in my bag if I'm in a rush, they're really good, it's only now that they're starting to "decay". but they really are a nice pair of headphones.
lol thong 2:05
Product placement... product placement everywhere.
Awesome setup by the way.
It's so crazy to see how far FreddieW/RocketJump, CorridorDigital, and Node have come after all of these years. It sure makes me feel old.
Thats awesome. also good to see someone has some craftsmanship skills to build the stairs. You guys look like you stay in shape too which is good for all the sitting required for editing/gaming
Its amazing how much tech has changed in 3 years
I feel like this video is just one huge product placement. Don't get me wrong though, that place is fucking amazing.
Brandon or D, I'd honestly love to see an updated tour, 3 years later, now that VR came along and all that jazz.
LOLOLOL BRANDON WAS LIKE, "IF YOURE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO FALLS OFF THE HAND RAILINGS, THEN GOOD RIDDANCE" LOL IM DYING RIGHT NOW XD
How is it Node doesn't have 1,000,000 subs???!!!
Eventually :3 This is by far my favourite channel and hopefully more people will find the channel and realise that.
"5 top of the line PCs."
I remember drooling over the computers they had, now my mid range GPU is more powerful than the GPUs they had then. How time flies :P
Two years is a lot of time...
You guys have gone a loooong way! I used to watch you guys when you were all in just a room with Freddie but now you've got your own building to work in. I'm so proud, keep up the good work. Looking forward to more awesome content on this channel.
I would give anything to work at Node. ANYTHING. Name it. Not a joke.
jesus, I hope you guys don't take all that stuff for granted. I hope you guys know that you have everyones dream job! Congrats on being successful and getting to have an amazing life!
Mad respect for the blackwidow but especially the deathadder. I used to have the original until it (partially) broke after 5 years of great service. Now I have the deathadder 2013 and i love it even more.
I think this setup is best what I ever seen before
That game in progress with D looks really cool!!!
HOLY COW ON TOP OF A GIANT MONKEY EATING A HORSE EATING CORN WATCHING DOCTOR WHO ON A LEATHER RECLINER COUCH WITH BRAD PITT.
That is awesome.
this would be the best ManCave ever. all you need now is to make it look like an actual Bat Cave
Imagine walking in there as a burglar, god it would be heaven.
I've been subbed to node ever since they started.
I miss Freddie, and the good old videos. But this is good as well!
I am so jealous for everyone that works with you guys
You guys are seriously living the dream!! Much love
thats awsome guy's, thank's for the short tour can't for more lan-party game play!
Only Node can say "Oh look, theirs just like a google glass hanging around.."
Saw the guy at the start and i thought jeezzz freddie has beefed up! xD
Man, the heat output must be crazy down there.
I'm so jelly in every single way!
There is a unicorn in this video! At the 2:00 there is a black guy there. He looks so natural I almost missed it.
This is a such a cool setup if I was there you couldn't take me out of that place
That is legit the coolest place on earth
1:56 Dat gun stash up there. (I know they are mostly props)
2:35 somebody is going of die of adrenalin shock!!!
Do they still have this setup? It's honestly the coolest setup I've ever seen. Maybe it's where Brandon and his crew work on Boneworks projects, wonder if they still have raidens sword.
I saw an instagram post some time ago. Yeah they do still have the sword and TV but the original 5 Origin PCs are gone but at least the couch is still there
Literally the most epic room In the world
